I personally love stripped-down songs, either with acoustic guitar or piano, less effects on the vocals. Sometimes over-production can actually take away the true feeling of the song and the lyrics, so it’s always nice when an artist gives us a choice!

LA indie-rock artist See Night, has released a single “LA Traffic” from their upcoming album “Just Another Life” on Feb. 28, 2025. With highly poetic lyrics and melodic guitars giving way to a both rock and shoegaze style vibe, it gives the visual of driving in the slow lane of an LA highway.

As you know I LOVE music videos and this one actually contains a cameo from a RuPaul’s Drag Race season 15 contestant Salina Es Titties!

We are BACK baby!

I introduce to you, Kansas City’s shoegaze/Dangerpop (that’s the new term!) band RxGhost, that has released a music video for their single, “Candles”, off their new album, “Scaffolding.”

They’ve released their latest single, “The Attic”, which tackles topics like momentary existentialism with punk rock melodies and poetic lyrics, reminding me almost of Rise Against.

Moving up and taking their garage band out of the garage, they’ve signed to PNWK Records and are currently working on their first full-length album.

A new podcast episode has been released where I talk a bit about my own personal music journey and how WhatsHerFace started!

Trying to find a balance between family, friends, marketing, networking and creating… all while paying your bills. Very few even get lucky enough to get the chance to maintain this balancing act.

Sometimes you need that motivation in the background to remember that this is only a moment, and you have the strength to carry on.

The album is full of great folk-punk songs, catchy guitar melodies, and hard-hitting lyrics that represent the anger in the way the world is and has always been.

Check out the new WhatsHerFace Podcast, where I talk about some of my favourite musical discoveries, and conduct interviews, with some great and extremely talented people!

It’s classic high-energy punk, fast guitars, but with deep-meaning philosophical lyrics that ask questions like: Is reality a byproduct of the human experience; or is the human experience the consequence of reality?

One of the singles on the album, “123”, also has a music video shot at Coney Island! The video was shot in a day, after having just finished a USA Northeast coast tour.

As is Tep No’s way, his smooth vocals, simple but emotionally gripping lyrics, and catchy melodies, will leave many of these songs stuck in your head.

Overflowing with soft guitars, heartfelt lyrics, and a compelling story to unfold, this track captures the essence of childhood trauma and the pain that can linger on.

Taking their teenage rebellion and creating energetic songs with catchy lyrics, bringing me back to my own teen years of house party bands and head banging.

The record was produced at Buzzbomb Studios under the guidance of the talented Paul Miner (known for his work with bands like New Found Glory, Atreyu, and Thrice).

The breaks and soft sounds build to expose her emotional depths into feelings of heartbreak, grief and loss.

Ray is a renowned guitarist, having been playing in Paul McCartney’s band since 2002 and as a former guitarist and music director for Etta James. Even though he’s worked with such talented individuals he still appreciates being able to release solo works.
