Free Download Of The Week: Phoebe Bridgers

“I’d hate for someone to think I’m sipping an espresso somewhere judging people or feeling sorry for myself. OK, I definitely do that once in a while, but I don’t consider myself an intense person,” Phoebe Bridgers told her record label Dead Oceans, “I think most of my musical education had to do with being around a ton of teenagers who listened to music all the time.” Dead Oceans continues saying, “Bridgers grew up in the rose-colored city of Pasadena, attending the prestigious Los Angeles County High School for the Arts to study music. From an early age, she found encouragement from a close-knit artistic community of friends and family to follow her dreams, and at school she forged relationships that would teach her as much about her craft as her classes.
others.”

Free Download Of The Week: The Barr Brothers

According to Secret City Records, The Barr Brothers released their debut album, recorded in a boiler room in Montreal, in 2011. The new album, Queens of the Breakers (out October 13th, 2017) arrives after the longest-ever pause in Brad and Andrew Barr’s 20-year career in music.  Both became fathers since 2014’s ‘Sleeping Operator’ was released.  In that time, Sarah Pagé also found ways to completely redefine the harp, its sound, and its role in modern music. ‘Queens of the Breakers’ was born out of reflection of what home and family mean now, after the effects of life on the road.

Download “It Came To Me” off Queens Of The Breakers any time between October 9th, and 15th and learn more about The Barr Brothers at their Official Website, “Like” them on Facebook, or follow them on Twitter.

Remembering Tom Petty

Tom Petty 5-13-17 Klipsch Music Center

This past summer Rock & Roll icon and music legend Tom Petty visited Indianapolis for an unforgettable night at Klipsch Music Center.  At the time no one in the crowd would have guessed that just a few months later the vibrant performer would leave the stage for the last time.  In our sadness we know that Tom Petty’s music and legacy will last for generations. From his unforgettable guitar riffs, to his masterful lyric writing, to his one of a kind voice there is little doubt that today we lost one of the great ones.   Rest Tom.
