fire up your january with incredible new artists all month long
2019 is already proving to be a year for the books. No sooner had we counted down and yelled "Happy New Year!" from our living room sofas to no one in particular, then the submissions came rolling in. Songs of tragedy, death, inspiration, family, love. We're running...

Everybody's done with those gnarly "Best Of" lists, correct? No? Oh, we didn't post our favorite music videos of the month quite yet? Alright. You've got us. We took a few (much needed) days out of rotation, and we feel like we are already behind on everything!...

deck the imperfect {fifth} halls | a holiday soundtrack
We've been in the holiday spirit on and off all year, if you're truly asking me. Every once in a while on a Friday, we have been known to break out into a rendition of a 98 Degrees Christmas song, or to envision the Hanson boys singing "Run Run Rudolph" directly at...

geron | after midnight
It’s nice when you listen to a song it takes you back to a certain place and time. When I hear these songs I think I’ll always remember late nights when I would take time out to myself and try to clear my head. These songs always put my mind at ease because life can...
top 7 non-male powerhouse vocalists of the year
These days, it can be difficult to determine one songstress from another, let alone save a track and keep the name of its creator in your music library. This time of year, everyone is posting their "Best of" lists for 2018. We aren't doing a super deep dive. We've...
sam era | broken hearts
Sam Era has come a long way since she participated in competitive jazz and scatting in high school. Equally as impressive, her talents have spread and her tastes reflect an amalgamation of her art, but at its most sad. She has curated a soundtrack called "Broken...
