It’s that time, again. It’s time for another Press Play Friday artist! I don’t know why it’s taken me so long to highlight this group as one of our featured Press Play artists. I’ve been listening to them since early 2009; their mix of Alternative-Folk making them one of my go-to artists for those unexpected midnight…

Press Play Friday: Fresh Music (4/27/12)
New music, anyone? Press Play Friday is back with another Fresh Music edition! Prepare, music nerds, to squee. This week, I’ve collected some of the newest tracks from a few of our favorite artists and mixed in a couple of mint-condition tunes from an up-in-coming singer/songwriter ensemble. It’s a hodgepodge of sorts, each one an…
Press Play Friday: Songs from the Movies
There’s No Business, Like Show Business One of the most important elements of a film is the soundtrack: the sweet symphonic sounds that make the film complete, the songs that bring a scene to life. Over the years, the classic film soundtrack has transformed from a simple score, to blockbuster musical numbers, to today’s popular…
Press Play Friday: Fresh Music (2/24/12)
Press Play Friday is back! Attention all music lovers: I’m back from a rather long music sabbatical – that mostly consisted of listening only to Florence + The Machine for days on end – with some new music, in another edition of Press Play Friday! All right. Please save your applause until the end. For…
Press Play Friday: April Smith & The Great Picture Show
“Wow and Flutter” Hello there, friends! Once again, it’s time for another Press Play Friday – your one stop shop for discovering the latest new music. And this week, I have something super-special for you. To say that I’ve been listening to this band non-stop for the past couple weeks is an understatement. I officially…
Press Play Friday: The Head and the Heart
Lost in My Mind Hello, my friends! It’s time, once again, for another Press Play Friday. Have you been missing your weekly music fix? Yeah, I know you have. This week, I bring you the musical styling’s of The Head and the Heart. A few weeks ago, I was lucky enough to come across this…
Press Play Friday: Sara Bareilles
“I do it for love” What time is it? It’s Press Play Friday. Yes, you heard correctly. I know, it’s been awhile, hasn’t it? My apologies, music addicts. This week, we go to Vegas, write Love Song‘s, and find Uncharted territory (See what I did there?). Thinking about which artist to feature this week had…
Press Play Friday: Fresh Music (12/10/10)
Yay! I love new music! Get those headphones ready. Turn up the volume. It’s time for some new music! Once again, I found myself browsing the iTunes library and came upon these three random acts of ear-goodness. These songs are sure to give you a couple earworms for the next week or so. I know….
Press Play Friday: I Love the 90’s
You’re Tearin’ Up My Heart Time and time again, I’ve expressed how much I miss 90’s television, jelly shoes, and cassette tapes. Wait. Scratch that last part. I really don’t miss cassette tapes. The one thing we never reminisced about was the music. Yes, the music. Days filled with boy bands, bubble gum pop, grunge,…
Press Play Friday: Music Obsession – Florence + The Machine
Cosmic Love Hello, my fellow music addicts. Happy Press Play Friday! I really don’t even have to ask if you have a music obsession. I know you do. If you’re like me, music is always playing. There’s always a song running in your mind, trying very hard to keep you from doing your work. It’s…
Press Play Friday: KT Tunstall
Suddenly I See I though we’d do a little something different today. I thought we’d take a look at a more established artist this week. I’ve been listening to KT a lot recently, so it seemed fitting to feature her in a Press Play segment. Now, it seems pointless to go in lengthy detail about…
Press Play Friday: The Mitch Hansen Band
“Stupid shiny Volvo owner, I’m so glad to see you here.” This week we saw what happened when Supernatural and Twilight combined. It was amazing, let’s face it. Yet, this wasn’t the first time Twilight fused with another one of my favorite things. If I told you that there was a band – an awesome…
