Oklahoma native Kevin Posey lives in Auckland these days, and throughout his musical career he has investigated different types and styles of music, and for this EP he has moved into yet another area, as what we […]

This is Jolandi’s third single since moving to Aotearoa from her native South Africa, and right from the first note one can why she has already been making a dent in international Country music charts. Although h […]

I must confess this is the first time I have come across The Mountain Goats, and I when I went looking to do some research I was somewhat intrigued to discover that band leader John Darnielle has been using that […]

I do not believe there is currently a more enjoyable music series out there than ‘The Magnolia Sessions’ from Anti-Corporate Music. This was the fifth album, and as always features a musician performing und […]

I had to smile when I saw this release, and not just because the album title is “Hail Satan” backwards, but I remember these guys from the first time around. Back in the early 2000’s they were signed to Conqu […]

I’ve been racking my brains, but after more than 30 years of writing about music I am convinced, this is the first album I have ever reviewed a band from Ecuador. This is the debut album from Claudio C ( […]
