The Struts hit the stage right on time and from the outset it was apparent that this band was the real deal. I for one had never seen this band live but had heard their single “IT COULD HAVE BEEN ME” and their latest one “KISS THIS” from their new album EVERYBODY WANTS. What I […]

Jimmy Buffett and The Coral Reefer band were sure […]
Even though I have seen Lenny a few times, this time was different. What Lenny always brings to his shows is energy and fun. This time he came with an 11 piece band! Horns with three backup singers and of course, the Lenny Swagger. His music has a FUNK, R/B, SOUL feel to it. Even […]

Formed in early 2015 and armed with very audacious goals to Headline the pyramid stage at the Glastonbury Festival in England and Madison Square Garden in NYC, these indie Alternative Pop upstarts from Long Island, now based in LA, are about to take the Alternative World by Storm. The first thing you notice is how […]
Funk-rock musician Dan Reed steps out of his comfort-zone and hits the curve ball with ‘Fight Another Day.’ The Dan Reed Network (1) has been around since the 1980’s, hailing from the smooth-jazz style #1 hit “Steal Me”, but that might feel like eons ago compared to the hard rocking track “Divided” opening their 2016 return […]
