abigailpixler5452

If you are new to reading my reviews, unfamiliar with what these reviews consist of and how I “rate”them, let me explain.

Lastly, don’t take my reviews as concrete facts about an … Continue reading Meh or Yeh Music Reviews: 03.30

abigailpixler5452

2017 was a glorious year for music from all around the world, so it only make sense that I make a little list for you of the songs I listened to most via Spotify this year.

All in the Family Pt. 1

abigailpixler5452

What exactly does it take to make a band magical? What makes music stand out above the rest as something unconventional? From the 1940’s greats The Andrews Sisters to the 1970’s legends The Jackson 5, the family unit has always found it’s way within music in some way, shape or form. What could truly tie a band together more deeply than literally being family? Who knows. All I do know is that it comes together to create some awfully powerful and creative byproducts. Below are some of the most well known artists and bands from around the world that are … Continue reading All in the Family Pt. 1

Imelda May

abigailpixler5452

April Showers Bring May Albums IRELAND | Blues/Soul/Rockabilly Small in stature, but with pipes larger than life, Imelda May is far from a musical newcomer, with well over a decade of musical experience, producing and songwriting. I was recently blown away by her latest album release thanks to my brother’s insistence that I listen to it immediately. Why was I blown away, you ask? Allow me to explain. You see, years ago, I had caught her performing live on Later… with Jool’s Holland and thought that her music was new and fun since it was rockabilly, a genre that is … Continue reading Imelda May
