Ciara O’Neill is sharing, with the ComicPop listeners, her latest music video for her single “The Ebony Trail”. Ciara uses her voice and acoustic instruments to their haunting abilities. “The Ebony Trail” takes you on a journey that sounds so simple, but for an artist to use restraint is one of the harder things to do. Simplistic is not always simple as I like to say. The animation that Ashling Lindsay uses in the music video is also a simpler style which to me matches to the single’s sound well. This single is one that you would use to reflect or contemplate while listening to Ciara’s debut album, by the same title, The Ebony Trail, which was released this last March.

Tammy “Hated It (With You)” Single
TAMMY is the duo Aaron and Brooke. They are sharing their debut single with the ComicPop listeners “Hated It (With You)”. This single has the stylings of 1950’s – 1960’s music. One slight difference – the lyrics in “Hated It” are a little bit more edgier. I really enjoyed TAMMY’s “Hated It (With You)” so have some retro-fun through SoundCloud – Richard:

Jason Achilles Mezilis’ “Panhandle” Music Video
Jason Achilles Mezilis has just released his rock instrumental album Comedown this past June 28th. Jason has been kind enough to share his music video for the single “Panhandle” from that album. Jason is in a world that most people don’t see to often, that being in the world of instrumentalist. If you are like me and you listen to music for the rhythm and beat of a song more than likely you will enjoy instrumental pieces like soundtracks and Jason’s Comedown album, you just don’t realize. “Panhandle” has a bit of a modern western flare to it and the music video carries that flavor over into it as well. The music itself isn’t overbearing and really enjoyable. Definitely interested to hear more from the album. While you enjoy Jason Achilles Mezilis’ music video for “Panhandle” be sure to check out their site or a digital downloader to support the group and their release of Comedown. Here’s “Panhandle” from their YouTube channel – Richard:

Sun of Sound Make it “Home”
Sun of Sound are sharing with the ComicPop listeners their new single “Home”. This single is a fun infusion of Rock and Hip Hop. Sun of Sound really has a nice mixture here of the two styles. The single has definitely got my interest up on hearing what will be on the full album. “Home” is from the groups upcoming album Good Days to be released later this Summer.
