Last year Griff dropped her EP Vert1go Vol 1 and then a few months ago she released the Ver2igo Vol 2 EP. Both are great and show the growth of Griff’s music, with more serious lyrics over her signature upbeat pop sound. These EP’s songs are combined with six new tracks to make up Griff’s…

Beth Nielsen Chapman’s CrazyTown
Welcome to CrazyTown! Don’t know where it is? Take a left at the Dairy Queen…yeah, that’s me on the corner in the cow outfit waving a rainbow flag, and it’s just two towns over from Funky Town! Speaking of which, the only style of music Beth Nielsen Chapman doesn’t cover on her new album is…
Sophie B Hawkins’ As I Lay Me Down Deux
I became a Sophie B Hawkins fan back in ’92 when I first heard her song “Damn I Wish I Was Your Lover” on the radio. Her raspy and gritty vocals over a driving beat had me hooked before the first “damn” left her lips. It would be just over a decade before I would…
Marina’s Love & Fear Tour & Acoustic EP
Friday the 13th is superstitiously unlucky but not for me. This month Marina released her Love & Fear Acoustic EP and I had a seat in the 13th row at the Rockland Trust Bank Pavilion in Boston, Massachusetts to see her in concert. This was my second time seeing Marina in concert and this show…
Philadelphia: The City Of Brotherly Love
My partner and I have been talking about visiting Philadelphia, Pennsylvania for a while. After Boston and New York, it’s the next major city close enough for us to easily get to in a few hours. When Amtrak offered a BOGO deal, we decided now was the time to visit. In my…
Busy Philipps’ This Will Only Hurt A Little
I don’t know when I first became a Busy Philipps fan, it was either when she was on Freaks & Geeks or Dawson’s Creek. I didn’t watch either when they first aired but discovered them later, thanks to DVD. I know I was a fan by the time Cougar Town aired in 2009, it’s because…
Echosmith’s Inside A Dream EP
I became an Echosmith fan, like many people, the minute I heard their hit single “Cool Kids” back in 2013. I bought their album Talking Dreams and their EP Acoustic Dreams which is some of the Talking Dreams songs stripped down. What I like about Echosmith is that they have an upbeat vibe and make…
Ingrid Michaelson’s It Doesn’t Have To Make Sense
Ingrid Michaelson is one of those artists that I was late to discover. I would hear her music randomly and think “that’s someone I have to check out” but I wouldn’t be near a computer to look her up. I could never remember to research her until her song “Girls Chase Boys” hit a couple…
