Rob Crawford - Fingers Crossed



Rob Crawford 
Walking the Rock Retro World of Early 90's 
his Ancestors Primal Scream did it Before, And Possibly he can get you on the Indie Dancing Shoes.
Maybe, This Electro Beat Spunkin, long rollin' hook driven album, can wake you to The Who I Can't Explain, vibe.
It's up to your imagination. I wouldn't tell you anyting without Proof, And I would Listen to this Stooges driven dark Garage
Feel. When you Gone you're Gone is Very much Muse like song With Herman's Hermits pushing the Harmonies.
I don't know if you wanna be Syth-sized but yeah! you can smile and you can keep your finger crossed, to see Rob Crawford in your town.
Cause you gonna be his fan, and He deservs it.

Evil Eyes




When i heard Evil Eyes I initially thought This is Manchester band.
Band have two members Greg Mabry & Joe Frabotta. What's cool is how music evolve in different parts world.
Evil Eyes are from San Francisco, and don't sound like jam band, cool! (No worries I love Jam Bands!)
These guys are all the way between Smiths and Stone Roses. You can't miss there. 
Guitar works really psychedelic and , also Songs are really catchy, and radio friendly.
Band is new and there's not so much information on them or live shows. Hopefully they gonna start playing live.
At the end you're into any of Oasis, Verve, Kasabian stuff you gonna like them!

Adena Atkins-The Slowest Curve



Adena Atkins

Adena is Dreamy Girl with Imagination, coming out from Seattle's music scene.
Her Approach of trying to be Different in the Indie pop world, could possibly work as a concept.
Her concept is strong Story telling, But in the same time keeping you enlightened to the point
that you gonna accept her music as unavoidable addiction. Maybe she accomlished a lot latelly,
But her first West Coast tour should Groundbreaking as well. He EP The Slowest Curve came as
colaboration effortwith producer Jay Pinto. She's Like Natalie Imbruglia or Dido but with more groove and ambience.
Now we gonna wait for her tour and go and check Adena live. Look for her upcoming Cherries & Horses west coast tour, in partnership with fellow songstress Jessica Lynne. and Don't forget to tell your friends!

PLANETARY NIGHTS



Planetary Nights is Tim J Sweeney Project. It's a band label project under the same title.
Tim is from New York , But his music is basically very much Nashville or South driven, So it's not typical for NYC Punk
or Postpunk Scene.In New York there are a few cool clubs, very familiar with this  type of sound, one is Rodeo Bar and other one National Underground to name a few.
Tim J Sweeney knows how to cross from Folk to Classic Rock with enthusiasm  The Byrds did. His guitars have that sparkling , shiny sound that Roger McGuinn had at the time.
Planetary Nights, project can be sorted in the same alley as Black Crows own Chris Robinson's Solo Efforts.
Sweeney's sound and style have evolved over the three albums that he released trough his Planetary Nights label,since 2009, and reflect an Americana vibe, dynamic storyline, as well as an assortment of influences he picked up playing  venues of his hometown New York City
over the decades.
His guestes (read band members) on the album include some prominent and seasonal musicians; Kelley Looney (Steve Earle), Rob Thomas (Peter Frampton), and Phil Cimino who worked with Chris Barron( Ex Spin Doctors).
Tim J Sweeney music has grown with New Album to the next level, and there's a question if band gonna be hitting road to get loyal following,
while keeping his Classic Rock Spirit driving you trough New York City Nights.

DRUNKSOULS



DrunkSouls are French band that tap into legendary Mano Negra, influences.
If Any Non English Speaking band did change and was hugely popular around Europe that was Mano Negra,
 and That's the sound that is absolutely missing in today's Corporate-Idol infused, brainwashing scene.
Drunksouls are Talking about Sex and Revolution, Singing like Marley sons, And having Somewhat
Beastie Boys Attitude, With pretty much West Coast Guitar sounds.
They Don't sound like any of Popy Icons like Michael Jackson, Britney Spears and That's good thing.
I can see them playing along with Damian Marley or any of big Pot culture festivals, where Similar acts do great job.
French music was always more experimental and having more open approach to different cultures and their  influences.
And Drunksouls have similar way of thinking.They like to state that,they're "creating a unique sound with little to no borders."
And they doing it since  2002. Hopefully they gonna be touring other side of the ocean and get Reagge, and Rock fans Rolling into
their Revolutionary but Positive and funny state of mind.
