A. Pollinger

“I’ve always put everything I could into music,” says Tyke James, lead singer of acclaimed rock band, The Moss.

Sof’s New Savage Track is the Diss Track of the Summer

A. Pollinger

East Coast pop sensation, Sof drops her single “Buh-Bye!” today! This is the singer’s first single of the year since the release of “Ataraxia” in 2022.  “Buh-Bye!” is a diss track dedicated to fukbois everywhere; particularly slimy dudes attempting to take advantage of their female friendships. Inspired by a personal experience Sof recently endured, “Buh-Bye!” is something most women—or people—can relate to; when you realize your friend isn’t really your friend, but a snake wielding some ulterior motive (and they don’t care about your boundaries, let alone anyone else’s). “Buh-Bye!” is a lesson in one simple fact: just because you … Continue reading Sof’s New Savage Track is the Diss Track of the Summer

The Uneasy Gets Real About Overcoming Addiction & Healing Through Music

A. Pollinger

By Amaris Pollinger East coast progressive rock band, The Uneasy, has a logo that might look familiar to some. It’s a clash of three swords stabbed into a heart and sporting an eye. The Three of Swords is a tarot card whose symbology resonated with The Uneasy’s singer/songwriter/ founding member, Emily Jean. Like all tarot cards, The Three of Swords has a double meaning. Right side up, it represents heartache, loneliness, depression, separation, confusion, ill-health, trauma, and alienation. Reversed, the card is representative of compromise, forgiveness, overcoming grief and sorrow, and reconciliation. The card inspired Emily Jean to press on … Continue reading The Uneasy Gets Real About Overcoming Addiction & Healing Through Music

A. Pollinger

Indie-folk singer Sharon Van Etten released her second single of 2022, “Used To It” following the emblematic synth-pop track, “Porta.”   “Used To It” was initially drafted as a part of a score for the HBO documentary Baby God, about Dr. Quincy Fortier who used his own sperm to inseminate his fertility patients. When HBO chose to go in a different direction musically, Van Etten was left in a position that challenged her to “write a song about the concept of family, connection through blood, nature vs nurture, while attempting to incorporate ideas of love and the complexities of science and … Continue reading Sharon Van Etten Releases New Single, “Used To It”
