KAVA | Solution

For all of you into the psychedelic music, I've got a new band for you to check out. KAVA is a band that has drifted away into the abyss of imagination and come back with some really trippy music. Somewhere between Pink Floyd and Black Sabbath lies the music of KAVA. There are parts of their songs that are very reminiscent of the 70's psych rock with some of the modern tones of the contemporary rock bands. The music will surround you and take you on a voyage through the deepest depths of your imagination.

The first single from the new album has undertones of the early Pink Floyd eras with some really dark vocals. The music is almost meditative and pulls you into a trance of the subconscious. The aura of the music is very lucid and moves through the mind like the voices in your head. If you are looking for some new music that has a relaxing and thought provoking atmosphere, you have now found the band that has the right chemistry. Get lost in the serenity of the musical creations of KAVA.


Solution is the first release off upcoming album Prophet Bob, their 5th release

KAVA is a psych rock trio:
Marshall Greenhouse (Chicago)- drums, percussion, Kaossilators
Wilson (Denver)- guitars, keys
Ryan Behling (Central Coast, CA)- bass, vocals

The New Position | NOT

Emerging from the carnage of over-saturated media is a difficult thing to do. With so many online radio stations and mobile apps that are streaming music non-stop to the public, it can be very difficult to find good music. I've created this blog to feature some of the musicians that you may have missed in the shuffle.

One band that rises to the top of my list as one of the greatest unknown bands is THE NEW POSITION. As a child of the late 80's and early 90's, I grew up listening to some of the most influential hard rock and alternative music that has shaped our modern society. Bands like Soundgarden, Nirvana, Nine Inch Nails, and Metallica are all staples of what paved the way for modern contemporary rock music.

TNP has reinvented the simplicity of heavy rock music with the delicate touch of female vocals. TNP's music of heavy guitar riffs that shred your soul and drum beats that kick you into next week are what lay the foundation for this impressive trio.

Modest Goddess layers her thought provoking vocals over this hard rock music with such grace and elegance. Lyrics that get stuck in your head are the best kind because they strike a chord with your soul. MG's lyrics and vocal talent are not to be over-looked. This band is a hidden gem in the mass confusion of today's music industry. I predict it is only a matter of time before TNP becomes world famous and takes the crown as the reigning hard rock band of this coming decade.

ARTIST: The New Position
SONG: NOT
ALBUM: Exit Only

STV | VCR

A midst the sea of indie musicians, there are a few that come along and captivate the world. STV is a musician that strikes a deep chord with melody and emotion. Front man, Steve Counts, has the purity of a musician that connects on a spiritual level with his own songs. A connection that is starting to become more and more rare as pop music evolves.

The music on his recent album, "VCR," is a collection of tunes that are crafted with lyrics from the subconscious and bring imagination back into everyday life. It is hard to believe that these tracks almost didn't see the light of day.

Songs like "Suburban Function" resonate with the day-to-day life that so many of us experience in this modern world of constant responsibility. Another track, "Love is a Wild Bird," has the elegance of a contemporary ballad for fans of acoustic music. The magic is in the lyrics and the refined delivery of the vocal tracks.

Fans of BECK, Ween, U2, Macy Playground, The Flamming Lips, & Nick Drake will love the music of STV.

Justin Fawsitt | Preposthumous

It's Thursday and a great day for listening to new music.  My recommendation today is Justin B Fawsitt: https://soundcloud.com/justin-b-f

Justin writes a lot of original music. His style of music blends rock, blues, jazz, fusion, and contemporary pop into a sound that is extremely unique. Born and raised in Ireland, Justin has developed a deep passion for his homeland and it saturates the mood of his music. His years here in the USA have been inspiration to blend the experiences of both lands and develop the character of his tunes with a distinct flare for all the roads he has been down.

We've spent many days in the studio working on recording and mixing his latest album, PREPOSTHUMOUS. If you like the music, you can buy a copy of the CD from Justin's website: http://fawsitt.com/

The CD came out great and would be a great addition to any music collection. Each song has it's own style and will move you!

 P.S. Stephanie & I did backing vocals on the track "Two Black Eyes"

Third Thought | Gentleman's Curse Lifted

Old school punk, folk, & rock fans, you have some new music to get excited about. Third Thought is a band from Fremont, OH that has been inspired by some of the greatest musicians of all time like the Beatles, The Who, The Replacements, The Clash, Alice in Chains, & System of a Down, just to name a few. Third Thought is the songwriting platform for singer-songwriter/guitarist Matt Ingles. Mat has been playing guitar and writing songs since the age of 14. Matt has always been heavily influenced by various genres of rock and music in general ranging from Thrash Metal to 60s pop, and anything else he finds interesting, passionate, and composed uniquely.

The band is currently mixing their debut album, Speaking Vibes, and should be available in the very near future. Gentlemans Curse Lifted is the debut track from the album and it has tones that remind me of Marcy Playground's "Sex and Candy" with just a touch of influence from the alternative punk scene that was raging in the late '90s. The raw vocal sound is the first thing that grips you and draws you into the music. The musical composition is accustomed to having that rock edge with the dial pulled back ever so slightly to the folk sound of the industry. Fans of WEEN will be overjoyed that the guitar solo has moments that will take you back to the days of Chocolate and Cheese. Definitely a band you should take a moment to hear and find out if you've just found your new favorite band.

The music has energy and will have you tapping your feet to the beat. Then they slow it down and sooth you with mellow tunes that will let you drift away in to a state of relaxation and contemplation.

You'll immediately hear the care and quality that went into every step of the recording process to make the album timeless and cherished by all that hear it's music.
