“Three psychos that came to be through fate by way of necessity.” That’s how B Boys describe themselves on Facebook. They’re absolutely dynamic on stage. I saw them at Sidewinder on a hot night in Austin and they were absolutely captivating. We talked about long drives, Denton, TX, and the inspiration behind their new album Dada.
Why We’re Suckers for Future Thieves
If Jimmy Fallon’s a fan of your work, then you know you’re special. And honestly, after listening to Future Thieves’ single, “Sucker” I thought this, too. Future Thieves includes the talents of Elliot Collett (vocals and guitar), Austin McCool (guitar), Nick Goss (drums), and Gianni Gibson (drums).
Inside The Mind Of Jake Miller
If you’re like me, you’ve been waiting for some new Jake Miller music for a hot second (OK, only a year, but it feels like forever!). But, now you’re in luck – Jake just released his brand new 10-song album, 2:00am in LA, and it made up for the time we’ve had to go missing his music.
Robinson’s Haunting Vocals And Lyrics Are Unforgettable
Robinson’s song “Don’t You Forget About Me” is one of the loveliest songs I’ve heard. The light piano and her haunting vocals will play on and on in your mind. The video already has over a million streams.
Cobi Is The Guitar God Of Your Dreams
Growing up with a strong passion for blues and classic rock, Cobi is on a path to resurrect the guitar solo. His music is super unique; a bit of gospel with a strong R&B influence mixed with classic rock. Cobi received his first guitar as a gift from a family friend when he was just a kid. He was self-taught, learning to play by ear, and by the age of twelve Cobi knew music is what he wanted to pursue. His musical influences can be traced back to Prince, Jimi Hendrix, Led Zeppelin, and Bob Dylan. We sat down with Cobi at Hangout Fest and picked his brain about going viral on Spotify, his upcoming album, and why music should stay in schools.
FOXTRAX Are Your New Driving Soundtrack
To me, nothing is better than driving with the windows down playing some feel-good music, and FOXTRAX is the perfect artist to supplement this. The trio is comprised of Ben Schneid (guitar, keys, and vocals), Jon Stenz (drums and percussion), and Jared Stenz (bass.)
The Rocketboys Come Full Circle
I’ve been hearing about The Rocketboys for a long time. They’re a staple of the Austin music scene. I caught them at Mohawk right before their sold-out show for their newly released “Certain Circles.” This album really demonstrates their maturity as a band and shows them coming into their sound.
Sigrid’s Vibe Cannot Be Killed
As an avid cat meme enthusiast, I’m glad Norwegian pop star, Sigrid, can relate. Since breaking the U.S. charts with her single, “Don’t Kill My Vibe,” she’s been to countless cities to perform her music. She’s so humble and credits her team for their hard work and promoting her music on platforms like Apple Music’s Up Next Program. “It’s been really helpful, and most importantly – crazy fun,” she says.
LP’s Lost On You Is The Best Album This Year
I was beyond nervous to talk to LP, I’ve been almost obsessively listening to her album Lost On You since it came out. I say this without hesitation, it is my favorite album this year and it would take a lot to knock it down. I was so excited to see her at Hangout Fest that I made my friend wait with me for two hours in the burning heat at 2 p.m. because I just HAD to be front and center. It was an amazing performance, LP delivering those crazy vocals flawlessly,twirling her microphone in the air and casting a spell over the entire audience. I was mesmerized.
Rachel Crow Is A Straight Up Dime
Rachel Crow is a woman of many talents. Her incredible song “Dime” has been stuck in our head nonstop and she’s in the critically acclaimed movie “Deidra and Laney Rob A Train.”
