DEAD POET SOCIETY2019

DEAD POET SOCIETY

Dead Poet Society is a four piece band out of Boston, Massachusetts playing fretless instruments that create an uncanny wobble effect, and atypical distortion that sounds more like a vintage synth on steroids than an actual guitar. Their sound is both genre defying and defining. The band features singer Jack Underkofler, guitarist Jack Collins, bassist Nick Taylor, and drummer Will Goodroad.

The group attracted early fan attention with the release of their debut single Sound and Silence in 2014, and saw them gain a growing fanbase with the release of their AXIOM and DEMPSEY EPs that followed.

In 2016 their music was discovered by the influential Mexican blog PepeProblemas. Their review caught the attention of another up and coming rock band Sputnik, who invited DPS to open for them on their national tour of Mexico. The opportunity has lead to more tours south of the border and a rapidly growing fan base that will see the band return to Mexico in 2019.

September 2018 saw the release of single and video “American Blood,” the first time the band has worked with an outside producer and mixer, Englishman Alex Newport. The collaboration was so successful that Alex was asked to produce a further five songs that will be part of the band’s debut album set for release in the Spring of 2019. The album will also include two songs produced by Boonn (Grandson) and three more self-produced songs.

2019 will be the most exciting year yet in the band’s career, starting in February with a 22 date national tour as special guest of Andres, followed by the album release and tours of Mexico, Europe and the Midwest.

CARDS

CARDS is the solo project of LA-based producer/songwriter, Mike O. After years of working with other artists in the studio and on the stage, he started dropping his own music under this moniker in late 2017. 

After a year of singles, some playlist adds by Spotify and some kind words from influential indie-blogs like HillyDilly and Alexrainbird, CARDS is finally releasing the full album and starting to play live shows.  Performances in 2019 are scheduled in NYC, LA and Philadelphia with many more dates to be announced soon including a European run of shows.

MADUS

Los Angeles natives Dugan Cruz and Sam Sobo originally met in their late teens on what they call “an online dating site for musicians”. After forming Madus in 2013, Cruz and Sobo went through several lineup changes before deciding it best to stay a duo until the right members come along.

Juxtaposing blissful west coast indie against angsty alternative rock, their songs are reminiscent of the early 2000s garage rock revival groups like Franz Ferdinand and The Strokes. In the Spring of 2017 they started a regimen of writing, recording, and releasing one song a month. Since beginning this songwriting regimen they decided to self produce and record all their music out of Cruz’s garage. “After years of accommodating the time constraints and heavy cost of producers, we wanted to be able to focus on the music and not worry about all of that" said Sobo. With the goal being to “...just put music out there and see what sticks”, the duo have kept each release as organic as possible. No expensive PR, no sponsored social media ads, and no chasing of highly coveted “likes”. After releasing a few singles this way, Madus eventually struck a chord with their song “Find Another Girl” achieving over 40,000 cumulative streams. The song has just been made available on Spotify and all other major music platforms with “Play Pretend” as a B-side. Madus is continuing to record frequently and further hone in on their sound.

More shows and music releases currently brewing.

While LUPA self categorizes as electronic rock music similar to Paramore this particular track is definitely not indicative of that. This female fronted act out of the UK is bringing us a dance track that sounds like an early 80s R&B groove you might expect from an act like Shalimar or The S.O.S. Band. I almost couldn't help but compare the song to Lisa Stansfield's 1989 classic "All Around The World." If you are looking for a modern comparison you could easily see The Weeknd fronting for this music.

Basically the lyrics on this song are similar to what you might hear from both of those artists; wistfully romantic. At points in the verse their lead singer Livvy M almost sounds like a young Janet Jackson and definitely a far cry from Hayley Williams, not a bad thing at a time when just about every female fronted band wants to make that comparison and outright mimics. No, what you are getting here is far more inventive than that. For example about two minutes in there is something of a chip music breakdown that is very original and club friendly. As this track comes in little over three minutes its a perfect fit for radio not to mention television (the group's music was recently featured on Fox's Lethal Weapon.)

You've heard the Buzz, Hunnypot will Feed you the absolute truth when it comes to fantastic entertainment. We collude with the best industry players and music makers and we'd testify without any embellishment, to any body of government. Show #408 ignited with a Hot Tub DJ set filled with bangers and mashups. Shelita Burke sat down to talk about her humanitarian platinum hit songs and got on stage to help us get in touch with ourselves or to penetrate others. Grand Canyon returned like an echo to Hunnypot for a really rockin, rootsy set of American music Blame Candy also got down in the hot tub and were as sweet as can be. They hit the stage afterwards to perform a guitartastic, bombastic, glitter and heels rock n' roll revue. Binx made an African Bee-Line back to Hunnypot for another amazing bug eyed pop and dance extravaganza. Jude Rose performed a tender explosion of sweet melodies and subdued tones and the night finished with a world famous Hunnypot Dance Party. 01/21/2019

 Shelita Burke

SHELITA BURKE

Shelita Burke is a Pop-Electronic artist and writer based in Los Angeles and Paris, France. She is known for her engaging, collaborative, and spontaneous live performance style. Originally from Seattle, Shelita independently toured the world with over 150 shows across Europe, Asia, and Africa as well as a myriad of performances throughout the U.S. Her ability to connect with audiences and engage her expansive network of over 175,000 twitter superfans has resulted in a devoted global audience and prompting media interest from NPR, The Village Voice, Billboard, MTV, and many music industry taste makers.

Her latest songs are a departure from her earlier acoustic releases and transports the rising star into the pop world as a result of her collaboration with hit producer Marcus “Bellringer” Bell. The response has been infectious, with the most resent single “Penetrate” rising to #14 on Billboard’s Next Big Sound, a viral response amongst streaming services, and social media impressions reaching over 40 million people. Added attention was generated from her first single “Belong” which achieved over 2.7 million Spotify plays. Her forthcoming EP is planned for release later this year.

grand canyon amanda rowan

GRAND CANYON

In an era of computer-made, beat-driven music, Grand Canyon is the antithesis of modern pop music. However, focusing on classic sounds and arrangements and drawing on the inspiration of 70s musicianship and timeless songwriting, it is the kind of music that will be wafting through the canyons for a long time. 

The Los Angeles based rock and roll band, fronted by Casey Shea (guitar/vocals) and Amy Wilcox (vocals), and driven by Joe Guese (guitar), Darice Bailey (keys, vocals), Jon Cornell (bass), and Fitz Harris (drums) has self-recorded a debut album that is out now on Bodan Kuma Recordings.

blame candy2019 BLAME CANDY

Shield your eyes, mortals - Blame Candy has landed. The extraterrestrial, FUTUREGLAMROCK quartet has descended upon Planet Earth with a guitar-heavy rock and roll mythos guaranteed to twist human nature on its head and thrust it into the outskirts of the stratosphere. Whether they’re dazzling concert-goers with lightning-speed instrumental virtuosity, gyrating in flawless synchronicity, or subverting social norms with gender-bending sartorial irreverence, Blame Candy leaves a glittery trail of destruction wherever they roam.

The band’s bedrock is built upon its dynamic and flamboyant live performance, which ringmaster Chris Greatti describes as a “reckless and animalistic release of primal energy. Dressed to impress!” The rambunctious opener “Sweet Tooth” muses on addiction to “rock and roll symphonies” amidst winding, neoclassical guitar flurries, while the choreographed “Pathetic” dutifully illustrates the bands knack for earworm melodies and penchant for onstage theatrics. Citing classic influences like Van Halen, Queen and Prince, as well as modern kinfolk Radiohead and Tame Impala, Blame Candy’s entity is undoubtedly eccentric and eclectic, and its live show is a must-see hard rock phenomenon unlike any before. In Greatti’s words, “Blame Candy’s music is music for the 2020’s and beyond. The future of rock and roll is staring you in the face in matching red vestments. Take my hand and join us.”

jude rose JUDE ROSE

Jude Rose is a singer and music producer based out of Chicago. His music is a unique brand of R&B that pulls you in and lingers in your consciousness even moments after its end. The 27-year old multi-instrumentalist produced a record layered with dark, moody sounds, pulsating synth, heartfelt melodies, and lyrics about personal experiences. In that regard, his artistry is comparable to recording artists such as Joji and Blackbear. With a sensual essence and captivating stage presence, Jude Rose has already begun to garner the attention of major record labels.

The emotional scars of the young songwriter’s past have provided a vivid backdrop for his sentimental subject matter and his introspective lyrical content. That notion is the very foundation that Rose used to create his upcoming single, Lose . “ Someone that I love had depression and anxiety. It got really bad to the point where she had thoughts of hurting herself or committing suicide. I was anxious and I didn’t know how to process it, ” said Jude Rose. “So (Lose) was just me being able to process it. The song is my promise to her. I will lose my mind and my touch before I ever lose her.”

Glowie's new single "Body" is making an impression. A self-confessed ADHD loner with a lot of emotions, Glowie was bullied at school, which resulted in an unhealthy relationship with her body. Today however, Glowie displays makeup-free selfies on Instagram and t-shirts proclaiming, “a woman’s body is her own fucking business!”

Knowing the importance of taking care of yourself both physically and mentally, proud feminist Glowie is conscious of spreading not just body positivity, but pure honesty both on social media and with her music. “Art is not supposed to look nice, it’s supposed to make you feel something. I’m tired of trying to look nice for other people and being a certain way to make people like me. This year I am not going to be flawless, I’m going to be me, happy, emotional. I will paint, sing, dance and work my ass off.”

The track, which was written by Julia Michaels along with Justin Tranter, Mattias Larsson and Robin Fredriksson, is available now at all digital retail providers via Sony Music U.K./RCA Records.

jesse palter by annawebber

JESSE PALTER

By the time she officially signed to Artistry Music and began honing the setlist for the release of her debut EP The Paper Trail, Jesse Palter had written an astounding number of songs. Every time she sidles up to the piano to pen a new one, the Detroit born and bred, Los Angeles based singer/songwriter commits herself to the discipline of perfecting her craft. Strengthening her creative muscles and figuring out what melodies, lyrics and chord changes work best, she allows herself to be vulnerable, brave and brutally honest at the same time. .

Helping Jesse develop her sound and overall vision is producer Doug Petty, who came into her life as a fan of her vocals and songwriting before she had signed her record deal with Artistry Music. Petty, also a veteran keyboardist who has worked with the likes of Nick Lachey, Celine Dion, Audra McDonald, Britney Spears, Lisa Loeb and Shawn Colvin, agreed to produce her material whether she had a label or not. What Jesse calls his “meticulous, mad scientist approach to production” allowed her to keep the integrity of her songs from demo through the many layers and textures he brought forth. Testament to Jesse’s artistry is the caliber of studio musicians who were invited to play on the project – including bassists Tim Lefebvre and Alex Al and drummers Matt Chamberlain and Aaron Sterling.  

Jesse grew up a multi-instrumentalist (piano, trumpet, etc.) with parents whose passion for an eclectic array of music inspired her to deeply respect the art of great songs and songwriters, from Carole King and Joni Mitchell to Prince, Michael Jackson, Stevie Wonder, Smokey Robinson and The Beatles. Her multitude of talents as a vocalist and songwriter of strength and depth are showcased powerfully on the five tracks of The Paper Trail EP.

In the past, Fox, the frontman of the group, produced “Video Games” by Lana Del Rey and has written songs for the likes of Madonna, Britney Spears, and Avicii.

 The Songery2018

THE SONGERY

Writing songs that deal with every color and nuance of life, The Songery aims to push mental boundaries through genre-bending pop and theatrics.  The concepts, ideas, and messages behind the songs are more important than the songs themselves and every move, every sound, every visual is developed with care and intent in a final attempt to peel back the mask that humanity can so easily wear.

When asked why one person would decide to call herself “The Songery” she replies, “The Songery is more than a persona. It is a call to arms, a spearhead signaling for spiritual awakening, symbolic of an ideology that the world seems to be lacking severely and yet constantly surrounds us. For this reason, my project is grounded in story-line, integrity, concept, and character. I feel very secondary- as if I am the one driving the car, and it’s my car… but I am not the car. The Songery is a name I feel very intertwined with, I feel it so perfectly encapsulates the whimsical world I strive to show people.  I’m not quite there yet. I’m still developing, completely on my own, so it is a process… but I’ll get there.”

-I also feel the name gives me freedom to play with all these abstracts and to adopt such a wide range of tones and subject matter. Some very light, some very dark, ranging substantially in color yet all unified within this world. I have been writing songs and performing since I was a little girl, and never really had the belief that I could or should be trying to make a career out of it… until The Songery came along. It sparked a purpose within me. I believe in The Songery with such passion that I want to keep fighting until I see it realized. The Songery comes with power to me. It is more than me. It is bigger than me. If I forfeited the name, the music would not feel the same. Nothing would feel the same. It would not be the same.

The Songery loves Jonsi, Sigur Ros, Regina Spektor, Danny Elfman, Queen, Nick Cave and Warren Ellis, Beethoven, all the random hits of the 80s, and pretty much any film score.
