Ernie Halter “Starting Over”
“Starting Over,” Ernie Halter’s latest album, is the perfect mix of pop, blues and soul. Even as I type this, I can’t sit still in my chair. While listening to it, one thing comes to mind. Roadtrip. No, this is not as random as it sounds, and I’m pretty sure it isn’t some subliminal … Continue reading
Matt York “Mine”
A week ago, I had never heard of Matt York. Too bad for me. I am all about music that I can listen do while doing absolutely anything. I want to be able to listen to it while I’m happy, bawling my eyes out, driving to an interview, writing a 24-page paper or while readying … Continue reading
Rascal Flatts Unstoppable
Rascal Flatts know their fan base. Each CD they release features a painful love ballad, a very country sounding song, and the ones full of morals and life lessons. Unstoppable, their CD released on April 7th, has proven to be nothing different. It’s as if the trio looks at a formula sheet each time … Continue reading
Featured Artist: Tony Lucca
I first fell in love with Tony Lucca on March 1st. He opened up for Sara Bareilles when she sang in Champaign, Ill., and had me sold immediately.

And then there were 8…

I have a feeling that the judges will have to save someone for the first time. I fear that Anoop is going home and the judges will … Continue reading
American Idol: Final 9 Perform
Please don’t call, talk to me or stand too close. My arms may fly, I may gasp and mean comments are bound to fly out of my mouth. The time has come for me to shut out the rest of the world and watch American Idol. My computer is on my lap, and I’m ready … Continue reading
Featured Artist: Paramore
So, I’ve decided to add a little diddy called “Featured Artist.” I’m not sure how often I will feature an artist, but I plan on doing it on a somewhat regular basis…perhaps weekly. This week, I’ve chosen to feature Paramore. Paramore, a rock band with a female lead singer (crazy, I know), has been around … Continue reading
If You Seek Amy
I am going to propose a challenge. I challenge you to turn on a modern music radio station for a couple of hours that doesn’t play the new Britney Spears song “If U Seek Amy.” The song, from Spears’ recent album Circus, is everywhere. La la la la la la la la… It’s a … Continue reading
