Via Audio is a fan’s band. The music is accessible, the members are approachable, and their stage presence is infectious. Despite long and undoubtedly exhausting hours spent traveling from sea to shining sea, the group has a passion for music that is catching, a feat that cannot be claimed by many on-the-road-and-living-in-a-van groups. read more

Every year we run into a few choice "indie anthems" that are deemed digestible enough to make their way onto the mainstream plate. With playful melodies, bouncing rhythms and universal sentiment that anyone with a pulse can relate to or at least appreciate, these anthems are hard to hate, especially when our tapping feet have a tendency to betray any repressed feelings which we believe to be in opposition to our better judgement. read more
If Maps & Atlases is guilty of anything, it’s releasing an upbeat single in the middle of what is arguably the most dreary of the four seasons: winter. While most of us are still wallowing in Justin Vernon’s “jagged vacance thick with ice,” the Chicago-based quartet lures us out of hibernation with a toe-tapping anthem fit for the summer months. These bandmates have undoubtedly had their fair share of unconventional winters, which qualifies them to deliver a message of “salt covered shoes” that leaves fellow Midwesterners nodding in agreement. read more
Releasing a full-length album for streaming four months before its official release date is a risky move. Either listeners are going to love it enough to put money down for what they’ve already had the opportunity to commit to memory, or they’ll add it to their “been there, heard that” list and keep the change. Of course, when the stream is nothing but an uncomprehensible drone that spans over a two-thousand seven hundred and nine hour period (because writing it out makes it seem even more unfathomable), its hard to expect that even the most thrifty of listeners will be satisfied. read more
Not many bands can boast such a colorful array of instruments as do the Carolina Chocolate Drops. Complete with jugs, bones, harmonicas, and every type of banjo imaginable, CCD creates music so truly and, dare I say it, authentically Southern that it almost makes one feel guilty for living north of the Mason Dixon line. read more
This girl gets around. Frankie Rose has had her fingers in a lot of pies (Crystal Stilts, Dum Dum Girls and Vivian Girls, just to name a few), and is now embarking on part deux of her semi-solo adventure. Recently nixing “& the Outs” from the band’s name, Frankie proves that she is ready and willing to take center stage without a drum set to hide behind. But that doesn’t mean that the songstress is ditching her garage pop roots. read more
Every once and awhile a good band/song/album/musical movement will pass me by without so much as a “Hello” or “How Are You?”. Of course, I take all the blame for these “missed connections,” as I was most likely so blindly infatuated with another that I simply could not redirect my ears for even a second (I have a tendency to be a monogamous listener). read more
