“Did you know there was an all female music festival back in the 90’s?” My mother asked me this question a few weeks ago as we were getting ready to go out to dinner. Standing side by side in my hall bathroom, making some last minute touches to our hair and outfits, Speak Now (Taylor’s Version) blasted from the living room speakers. My mom has always been my go-to when it comes to women in music, exposing me to an endless slew of amazing female artists as I grew up. The conversation started as we praised Taylor Swift for the… Read more »

Our favorite indie/pop songwriter is back at it again. Nashville-based Knox has just dropped his new single, “Man Down,” along with a punchy (pun intended) lyric video. Known for writing witty lyrics and memorable melodies, Knox shows a side of himself which we can all relate to. That is, feeling unlucky in love and withstanding the pain of a toxic relationship.

Vocalist Joshua Roberts’ soaring belt takes the song to a whole new level. Meanwhile, their… Read more »
