As the saying goes, “you can’t teach an old dog new tricks”.  However, who needs a new trick when you have been rocking this long?  The following is a compilation of living rock legends that you need to check out before they are finished performing.

BB King 83

Beginning his recording career in 1949, at 83 this living legend is anything but slow.   Riley B King was born in 1925 and given the nickname the…

Copeland is a band that somewhat exists in a world of their own.  This carries over to their music and should be taken into consideration when listening to or going to a concert of theirs.  Their lush and eclectic arrangements never fail to shift my perspective to an otherworldly place.  After seeing them at The Basement, in Columbus just a month or so ago, I realized how important it was to be in the proper setting when se…

Our first interview landed us with The Compass Rose of Madison Wisconsin.  We caught up with the band in the middle of their 2 week tour.  The Compass Rose Quartet formed in January of 2008 and developed an eclectic sound that dances on the boarders of genres as diverse as hip hop, folk, and a cappella.  Mike Drohomyreky served as a front man supported by Ida Pajunen’s violin, Scott Lamps’ upright bass and t…

Meiko has come a long way since being a cocktail waitress just over a year ago. Releasing her self-titled debut album on myspace in September of 2007, Meiko has catapulted herself from serving martini’s to LA’s finest to appearing on some LA’s finest television shows. This mellow singer-songwriter combines her talents of songwriting with her smooth as silk voice to create an immediate coffee-…

I completely forgot to publish this article and words fall short to describe how much I enjoyed this show.  If you have not already heard of Brand New I encourage you to take a step away from main stream expectations, keep an open mind and give the band a listen.

Ohio State’s New Port Music Hall greeted us September 24th with the scent of overwhelming anticipation.  A sold out venue of enthusiastic fans gathered i…

With the deterioration of the formal record company comes the deterioration of the formal record.  Big named media distribution companies have been fighting bootlegged albums ever since the consumer was first able to transfer CD’s to cassette tapes.  In a world where either CD’s are instantly burned and circulated or transferred to MP3’s and hopping from one ipod to another, the artists have…

After parting ways with Ben Folds Five in 1999, lead singer/songwriter Ben Folds has a number of EP’s as well three full length studio albums under his belt.  His 2001 record Rocking The Suburbs climbed to #42 on the US Billboard charts, while his 2005 follow-up Songs for Silverman made its way to #13 (#9 AUS).  Lacking stand out hits as Brick, Rockin’ The Suburbs, and Landed, Ben Fold’s new album ti…

Adam Duritz and guitarist David Bryson started as an acoustic duo out of the San Francisco area in 1989.  Durtiz and The Counting Crows have come a long way since their debut album August and Everything After which brought the 1993 hit Mr. Jones to stereos.  Amidst the 90’s grunge hype The Counting Crows delivered a fresh organic sound reminiscent of Americana rock.

The 1996 album Recovering The Satellites del…
