Story and Song with Susan Gabrielle

Josh Doty, of Cemetery Sun knows how important it is to have an amazing sound in the studio. These days everyone is or has access to what seems like genius producers. Not everyone however, are developing the skills of the stage. Learning what performance was all about from the very beginning. Josh Doty, Elliot Polokoff, and Matt Scarpelli know this. They are living it. They are taking advantage of all the new technology we have today and building up a live fanbase on the stage as well. And with a sound as good as theirs, I don't think they can lose. For more info: Cemetery Sun music, videos, stats, and photos | Last.fm

Alan are: Alex Malaguti, vocals, Andrea Chirico, arranger, multi-instrumentalist and guitarist, Marco Mancin, drummer and Giuseppe Dalano, bassist.All four members have been active in the Italian underground music scene for over 20 years. Their project was born out of a series of online creative sessions, driven by the need to set current affairs to music, from politics to civic sense, from feelings to human relationships, with an invitation to reflection and introspection.With 70,000 streams on Spotify and 150,000 views on YouTube, the Italian public has shown its appreciation for a completely self-produced band.Electro-rock arrangements that look to a glorious past, a sound clearly inspired by the 90s, and a relentless rhythm: for The Alan are making music means taking a stand, not being afraid to say what they think, and trying to subvert the system.Alan have been releasing music since 2023, reaching notable positions in some of the most renowned Italian indie charts and receiving praise from some of Italy's most important publications and portals.Their new single Hawaii is an anthem to lightness as understood by the Italian writer Italo Calvino, who commented, "Lightness is not superficiality, but soaring above things, not having boulders on your heart".In this vein, the single, exploring summer atmospheres of nostalgic past, tells of love affairs that are born and end without too much drama and of life that flows in other events because people are made of a continuous reborn.

Nraakors is the brainchild of James Kasper, Joseph Norman and Gigi Macabre.Their music includes aspects of grunge, prog, noise rock, thrash metal, jazz fusion, folk, neoclassical and free improv. The result is a bit like the composers; weird, a bit roughhewn, somewhat sentimental and equal parts sardonic and sincere.

Alf Jetzer is an accomplished musician. He has worked on his craft for 4 decades. His life has been compared to one of a monk. Not that he doesn't speak. He does and his world is filled with beautiful music. But in the way that he is completely devoted to one thing- His music.His work has paid off. This is the music that people search for to meditate to. To put in the background of movies. To daydream to. This is such high-quality instrumental sound. This is music that can literally change your mood. At the least it is worth a listen. The song we are featuring is "Soul Bird"

Dian Sheng grew up in China, where he studied piano since the age of 5. He studied English from a very young age as well. He has only been living in England for 7 years and he speaks it like a native. He also composes beautiful songs and writes lyrics that seem to go flawlessly with the music. His song "The way before" is a sad song about love gone wrong. Yeah, we've heard it 1000x before. But I swear this was new and very vulnerable. I really like Dian Sheng and the plans he has for the future with his music. I actually think it would be difficult not to like Dian Sheng. I hope you listen to this interview and "The way before"

These girls are UNbelievable! When you hear their music you won't believe that they are ages- 13 (Ashlyn) and 15 (Scarlet). The songs are sturctured so well. It isn't like:"They aren't good for teenagers." Uh uh. They are good. It all started when Scarlet wrote a song called "Iron Shield" and it took off. It's a powerful song about rising above a trajedy that was going on with a third sister. I didn't get too much into that because it was such a deep subject. Then, younger sister, Ashlyn, decided to give it a try with a song she wrote titled, Hide and Seek, and what do you know? - She's getting those big numbers too. Of course none of this would be possible without the support of mom and dad, (you'll hear) You'll also hear me mix up their names a few times. These girls deserve every bit of success they get. They are so polite and sweet. I am honored to be one of their earliest interviews. Scarlett Sullivan | SpotifyAshlyn Sullivan | Spotify

With 90k subscribers and 14k interviews on their You Tube Channel, It's plain to see that they are doing good work. But you can be the judge: but come back (70) FaceCulture - YouTube Adele, Ed Sheeran If they have made an impact in music you can bet they've been interviewed on FaceCulture.

So we will have to do it for him.Martin has always had his own dream of writing and performing. Now, he has done some writing, put it to music, produced it and put it out there. It happens to be doing very well. But again, I'll let you be the judge.
