RadioIndy is pleased to present Love Revue with a GrIndie Award for the CD "Love Revue "

RadioIndy is pleased to present Love Revue with a GrIndie Award for the CD "Love  Revue "

Smart and catchy pop/rock with decidedly Power Pop leanings is the order of the day on the very fine new self-titled CD from Love Revue. Boasting a post-Beatles-inspired sense of melody and pop precision, Love Revue's irresistible hooks have an altogether classic feel despite the contemporary production values that make this 11-song collection a natural for multiple radio formats. CD opener, "Cooking for One," a low-key gem built on a piano and acoustic guitar backing, sets the bar pretty high for the rest of the disc as it recalls the charms of Badfinger at that classic band's best. "Looking for the One" and "Soothe My Soul" more than ably demonstrate Love Revue's rocking side, while "Strip Me" and "Release" is love ballads of the first order. With the triumphant song "Get Along," Love Revue really proves its mettle with a spirited ELO-influenced creation tailor-made for summer radio and summer fun. Love Revue's CD impresses as an album that succeeds on its own merits: a collection of pure pop songs that will sound as good on the car radio as they will at home.

RadioIndy is pleased to present Reform with a GrIndie Award for the CD "Reformed "

RadioIndy is pleased to present Reform with a GrIndie Award for the CD "Reformed "

Equal parts jazz and instrumental psychedelic / progressive rock, Reform's debut CD, "Reformed," charts a middle ground that ably fuses classic styles and influences - with an unusual twist. With a stellar 6-piece ensemble behind him, harmonica player Àlvaro Fernandez Gavíria's full, lower-octave playing serves as a primary lead instrument for much of the album. With studied restraint, Gaviria's tone – which recalls that of accomplished blues harp-stylist, Corky Siegel, approaches his instrument like a fusion-oriented Miles Davis, drawing out found harmonics within the framework of the band's rich and melodic songscapes. Guitarists Johan Glasson and Peter Åkerberg create the underpinning for Reform's – at times, Steely Dan-like jazz-rock sound, while drummers Anders Bergman and Åke Eriksson provide the forward thrust, effectively filling passages with deft and meticulous hits and textures. Not to go unmentioned, bassist Jesper Bergman and keyboard player, Magnus Ramel's contributions are no less vital - and noteworthy, to Reform's decidedly adventurous leanings. Regardless of whether it's fusion jazz or spacey art rock, Reform's CD is a terrific set of original music by unique players with unbounded skills.

"I Will Wait-Single" by Gigger (Pop Artist from Norway)

"I Will Wait-Single" is the debut song by talented London artist Gigger. The song is a promising view into the future of this artist's career. His voice is soft, sweet, and full of passion. His guitar work is perfect and shows the same emotion as his voice. Plenty of artists like Damien Rice, Matt Pond PA, Denison Witmer, and others have paved the way for Gigger to succeed. Well produced as this single was mastered at Abbey Road Studios and is sure to gain a little street credentials among the Indie music community. In short, keep your eyes out for more compositions from the talented Acoustic Pop musician, Gigger.
