Roe Kapara has released a brand new song, “The Dead Come Talking” today along with a surreal visual. The eerie stop-motion visual is reminiscent of a Tim Burton movie mixed with Coraline. Kapara has a knack for the macabre, fully engrossing his entire creative endeavor with haunting imagery. Up until now, we have seen this through his ability to nail the Kubrick stare, somehow inviting in and warding off his audience all at the same time. However, Roe Kapara approaches “The Dead Come Talking” with a new form of creepy homage. He continues to expand the universe he has crafted,… Read more »

Vocalist Patrick Gilchrist sings, “Long nights in the rearview mirror/Like sugar on my tongue/This is how it goes when it all goes wrong/Now I’m on the other side of a breakup song.” This vulnerability, paired with… 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. As the subject of a one-sided fight, Knox withstands every punch, singing “She’s a drop-dead stone-cold killer / But damn, I’m dying to be with her.” The lyric video that accompanies the track reflects the themes of the song… Read more »
