Video of the Day: Sweet Spirit – No Dancing
Sweet Spirit is one of our favorite new bands. And yes, I know we say that a lot. But, we really mean it this time. This Austin based band that features eclectic Pop and Soul driven by frontwoman Sabrina Ellis and company have delivered a next level record with their latest, Trinidad.
Song of the Day: Red Voodoo – Rise Up
This band of teenagers just might be the next Greta Van Fleet without the annoying Led Zeppelin comparisons. Tesla endorsed, thankfully, the band name has nothing to do with Sammy Hagar.
Song of the Day: The Scent – Popstar
Formerly with the band KAATO, founding members Kurt Lowney and Mika Nuutinen have gone duo, relocated from their native Australia, and formed a new band, The Scent. If this is what we can come to expect from these Nash-Aussian rockers, color our ears perked up and ready to rock and roll.

Video of the Day: Rattlesnake Milk – Bankrobber
These guys are from the plains of Texas, and that sounds about right based on their sound. Down and dirty Texas dirt Rock and Soul drenched all over this single and entire album recently self-titled release. Come for the cool band name, stay for the great music.
Song of the Day: Oceanator – A Crack in the World
Oceanator is Brooklyn based Elsie Okusami. In this track from her upcoming record to be released in August, she sums up the current state of affairs quite adeptly. “There’s a crack in the world/And we’re all hanging on, hanging on trying not to fall through the void/Sometimes there’s only so much you can do.”
