Deborah Lee Fong’s three decades and change-long journey through the wilds of the theatre, television, and film world isn’t the usual wearisome story. We have heard about the marriages, on-set tantrums, blockbusters and flops, stints in rehab, and brushes with the law. We seldom hear about the scores of performers who seek out new projects
You’re not there/then you’re here/then you’re gone. The newest single by Singer/Songwriter, Lorenzo Gabanizza is you guessed it, “You’re Not There.†It’s a bluesy melodrama, with a classic and naïve energy.

When the beat is moving like it is in the song “One Step†by Head Fake and Dub Fu Masters, there isn’t anything a listener can do to stop the rhythm from inflicting a lot of carnal emotion upon anyone within earshot of the music. In a record like the eponymous collaboration from these two
In her poppy new single “Down Crazy,†singer Gigi Vega doesn’t concern herself as much with a cohesive rhythm as she does a fluid lyrical delivery, and to me, it amounts to one of her most efficient and endearing performances to date.

Thanks to Paul Sinacore, the “Beautiful People†Hollywood paradigm is shifting. A British filmmaker friend once observed, “Hollywood casts beautiful people. In England, we cast talented, mediocre looking actors, and it makes us feel better about ourselves.†He isn’t wrong. For over 100 years, Hollywood has painted the world in colors of perfection. Beautiful people

Sam Green is thinking of eternity. The breadth of his songwriting over eight years and eleven releases is rife with concerns extending past the tip of his nose. One of the sometimes regrettable aspects of the singer/songwriter genre is the self-concern evidenced by its practitioners. In a world with so much to write about, it

Rap may be our only salvation for these otherwise ‘woke’ times. After all, in ways somewhat similar to other culture-busting genres rap is about calling things out, telling it like it is, and breaking the rules and setting them on fire.

Documentary films about music or musicians can go in almost any direction, and when it comes to an artist with as bold a history as James Reams’ (and his band The Barnstormers) has been thus far, fans have the right to come into the entire affair with some fairly lofty expectations.
