A Playlist That Pairs Perfectly With Your Tendency For Overthinking
Are you an overthinker? Do you find yourself waking up in a cold sweat thinking about the time you told your boyfriend’s buddy’s girlfriend that her man wasn’t at your house? He was at your home, of course, but you were too lazy to get off the couch and go out to the backyard to tell him that his girlfriend was on the phone. And then you were caught in the lie and had to explain to the girlfriend that, no, there weren’t any weird threesome shenanigans going on, you’re just a lazy asshole.

My Journey Through Luthiery
Before I embarked on the art of luthiery, I started my career as a mechanical engineer through an apprenticeship at a local engineering manufacturing factory at the age of sixteen (2012). I completed my apprenticeship four years later as well as achieving a Higher National Certificate at Southdowns College. My first taste of Luthiery started when I was required to do a project for my engineering studies (2014). I decided to build an Acoustic Guitar!
Women In Music Edition: The best Alternative albums from the late 2010s
The influence that women have in the music industry is unreal. What's even more unreal is that these powerful ladies have been carrying the game in music for years on end. What's different about this group of creative, inspiring individuals is not just the "alternative" part, but the chilling and genre-bearing storytelling invisibly inked in the songwriting. Young, growing, or old, these singers express their vulnerabilities and emotions in this list of style-changing albums not just for the alt-pop genre, but for the listeners as well.

Softer, Softest
I was the only girl growing up with 4 brothers who all happened to be inherently very talented musicians. A lot of testosterone around.
Deja Entendu
The school bus window felt cold against my forehead. My head was leaning against the glass as I stared out into the suburban abyss that I called home. It was winter in northern Ohio, and that meant snow and freezing temperatures. I had lived there all thirteen years of my life, but I still wasn't used to it.

This year, my friend introduced me to the elusive world of Astrology. Since the pandemic began, I really tried to learned new and interesting things with all of my spare time. At first, I tried crocheting. Then, I began a book club. While I was quarantining, I began writing music and picking up new instruments. But while I could've been reading up on other topics this year, Zodiac signs deeply intrigued me. Or rather, the people who vehemently embraced the idea of Astrology. I had always believed it was a farce. I mean, it's difficult to surrender the basis for everything we believe that makes-up individual personalities, i.e., psychology and genetics. But I couldn't help but suspend worldly expectations and trade-in my negative thoughts about Astrology for an interest in it. People who love and embrace their Zodiac signs are intriguing. If it isn't about pure belief, I think they just want to be understood and understand the world in their own way. But everyone is like that in their own way. We search for reason and meaning with art, work, family, or religion. Astrology is some people's avenue to understanding the world around them. For me, I indulged in music.

When Spotify went public, the world got a picture of how hard it is to make money in music streaming. Having a strong brand in the audio business, Spotify decided to venture into the podcasting business in hopes of better fortunes.

Who Is Samira Randolph?
Through the midst of a turbulent upbringing, Samira Randolph has managed to keep her head above waters remaining God-fearing, and humble. At a young age, she experienced molestation and abuse at the hands of her own father. This was the turning point in her life and the tip of the iceberg for future traumas to come. With a heart etched in steel, she fought her way through foster care, drug-addicted parents, teen pregnancy, single parenthood, and the foster care system. Through it all, she remained focused and ever more determined to accomplish her life’s dreams, which were to sing, act and write. Her first debut album “My Journey My Story” is soon to be released this summer and will feature hits such as Hallelujah and They Don’t Love You Like I Do.

MINNEAPOLIS POP ARTIST ANDREW THOMAS ' LATEST VISUAL' “LIQUOR TALKIN”
Minneapolis pop artist Andrew Thomas's latest visual “Liquor Talkin” is full of mannequins, alcohol, and mystique. So what does it all mean?

Andrew Thomas is a man of many musical hats. He’s an American singer, songwriter, and music producer. Hailing from a Native American reservation in Shakopee, Minnesota, his love for music began as early as 8 years old, where Thomas began playing the piano.
