Leilani Wolfgramm is sharing with our listeners her single “Live Wire”. Leilani has a nice full alto voice that flows through the single. The single’s style is definitely reggae, but with Leilani’s soulful voice you see the R&B sneaking through. Leilani has an EP coming out in January and I’m interested to see where her musically choices go. Will she gives us both reggae and R&B singles or stick more to one genre? Whatever she chooses she has the voice to do either one. Until January Leilani Wolfgramm wants everyone to check out her single “Live Wire” through her YouTube channel – Richard:

Starbenders’ Latest Single “Julian”
Starbenders’ is wanting everyone to enjoy their latest single “Julian”. This is glam rock at it’s finest. This was a fun listen. The music gets into you and for some reason, at least for me, I couldn’t help but bob my head and have a grin on my face.

So get into Starbenders’ fun single “Julian through SoundCloud – Richard:

Ascending Dawn’s Lyric Video for “Inside the Silence”
Ascending Dawn hits it out of the park again with “Inside the Silence”. This single infuses that hard rockin’ beat again for us heavy metal/hard rock lovers. Marlain’s vocals give the single a clear tone that resonates through the instrumentals to ease some of the harshness that sometimes comes across in this type of music. I love this blending and can’t wait to hear more. The band is wanting you to experience their music in preparation for the Coalesce LP release on December 1. So until then Ascending Dawn wants you to rock with them with their single “Inside the Silence” through their YouTube – Richard:
Ben and Andy’s Cover of Queen’s “Save Me”
Ben and Andy give us an acoustical version of Queen’s single “Save Me”. This is a very clean and crisp rendition of the single. The piano is beautifully done with the vocals hitting the mark on everything. Ben and Andy’s acoustical version isn’t as bombastic as Queen’s, but it is just as powerful. The video is just a studio type video, but the star of the video is the song. Take a moment and enjoy Ben and Andy’s “Save Me” Queen cover through their YouTube channel – Richard:

Laure Z’s Single “I Will Follow You”
Laure Z is giving us a bright shining song with her single “I Will Follow You”. With the whistling and ukulele this song has a light airy feel to it. The second and third verse goes into a more rounded sound with more instruments coming in giving more of a pop sound. But it is definitely that first and fourth verse that gives one that folk springy sound that is fun to hear during a more dreary time of year with our weather. “I Will Follow You” comes from Laure Z’s EP Girls Don’t Wait, which will be available on December 1. Until then enjoy Laure Z’s springy single “I Will Follow You” through SoundCloud – Richard:
