Pop singer Natalie Imbruglia, famous for her cover of “Torn” back in ’98, makes a come back this year. She recently shared the album artwork for her new album Male. The cover features her face being framed by tattooed male arms, which couldn’t work better for the theme of the album. Check it out after the jump. The reason Male will be such a cool album is because it is a compilation of covers originally sung by male artists, including Julian Casablanca (from The Strokes) and Daft Punk‘s “Instant Crush,” which you can listen to…

I have this overwhelming fear of writing reviews. Interviewing artists? No sweat. But watching them play and then writing about it strikes a fear into this little heart of mine that rivals the sinking feeling in my stomach when I can’t see my kid on the playground. What if they’re awful? What if I can’t find a single good thing to say about them and every artist I’ve ever respected reads that one review and now no one will ever talk to me? See? It’s terrifying. The only thing that…

Situated beneath the town’s mascot Tilly, Asbury Park’s Wonderbar is a favorite venue for locals and benny’s as well (that’s a tourist for those of you not in the know). As with the rest of the shore town, it’s got a not so secret soft spot for The Boss, but lately it’s been playing host to new acts that are just as talented. Tonight its guests are Brian Marquis and the rest of the Acoustic Basement Tour. Before the show I met up with Brian and discussed his upcoming album,…

With The Starfolk’s latest self-titled album, come peaceful sounds of harmony blended in with beautiful acoustics. This band has set the bar high with tracks like “From above” and “Midnight Moon,” which put you in a trans of rich pop indie musical heaven. With all the groovy vibes this band has created it’s not a shock that they have out done themselves on their second album. Personally this is the first time I’ve heard this group and I’ve been blown away from the first song on their latest album. Please…

Feldspar “The Flat and Paper Sky Vol II” Album Review

It takes a lot of balls to have the first song on your EP void of instruments. “The Flat and Paper Sky” that opens Feldspar’s The Flat and Paper Sky Vol II features just multi-tracked harmonies that wouldn’t feel out of place on a Fleet Foxes album. It’s a bold move that works, in part because the voices sound angelic. It’s the voice that carries Feldspar. On the next track “Bright Blue Eyes”, the band amps it up a bit with some bluesy and reverbed guitar. It’s equal parts Ten-era…
