Probably not. I can’t listen to everything. And now for the controversial part. This list might be alphabetical next year. Why you ask? It can be argued that album #50 is as good as #1 and #35 is as good as #2. But nonetheless here goes. Read more…
We’re always eager to find music that comes out of left field and today’s selection is no different. Kyle Bielfield who performs under his surname is an opera tenor with a Juilliard degree, a stint in the Met Opera and an appearance in the Pulitzer Prize-winning opera Angel’s Bone.

Let’s take a dive in the Wayback Machine and revisit the days of the early 00s. Nu metal, Napster, LimeWare and the American Pie movie franchise, the hilarious coming-of-age set of movies featuring Eugene Levy and Jason Biggs among others. Read more…
As much as we all love American-made music there is no denying that artists and bands east of the Atlantic just do music better.

At the day job a couple friends have urged me to put together a Spotify playlist of 40 songs that captivated my attention the last few days. We’re hoping to make this a somewhat regular occurence, but we’ll see if that carries forward. Fair warning, if the playlist ever uses the moniker Goyo, well, it’s a long story. The long and short of it is this: the nickname started in middle school and was reinvented when I joined RMCAD in December 2018. Nearly 90 percent of the college refers to me as Goyo.

I was having a pretty good Monday until this piece of superfluous self-aggrandizement jumped across my screen.

The future of country music is a 5′8 blonde spitfire who wears a bandanda on her head and hails from Northeast Louisiana. She’s a former barrel racer who moved to Nashville in 2011 in a Thunderbird trailer. She’s sassy, sexy and not afraid to be vulgar. Her name is Lainey Wilson and if her set at Beaufort, SC’s Water Festival last Saturday is any indication she just might be racking up a ton of awards before she’s called it a career. Read more…
