Tim Noyes is that rare singer/songwriter whose music has a sneaky, hypnotic effect, drawing you in before you realize what’s happened. His nonchalant style could be described as an alt-country / indie pop / urban folk hybrid. A treat for any fans of Dr. Dog, Fleet Foxes, and Ryan Adams. myspace.com/auntmarthaband About Tim and Aunt Martha: Tim Noyes [...]

Gillian’s songwriting sneaks up on you quietly, much like her voice. It takes a certain kind of performer to captivate an audience with a delicate, nuanced performance. Too often I see people screaming their heads off, just because they can. No doubt Gillian can do this as well. But while being loud is all well [...]
Sometimes I think that Kelli Rae Powell has somehow stumbled out of America’s past, a bombshell torch singer with a ukulele… but then I listen to her lyrics and she reminds me that her mind is anything but old-fashioned. It’s a charming mixture of impressions, and added to it is a live performance that walks [...]
Andy Mac is one of those people you want to hate, but have to love. Why would you want to hate Andy? Because he's good at pretty much everything and it makes the rest of us a little jealous. It's not enough that Andy writes infectious songs that you want to sing along to, he has to rub your face in it with his mad skills at vocals, guitar, piano, and drums.

The Courtesy Tier is always a surprise, sometimes even to themselves. Omer (guitar) and Layton (drums) have been playing together for the last seven years, but they weren't always a duo. As members came and went, they perpetually conceptualized themselves as a four and sometimes six piece band...
Imagine if Prince Eric had fallen off his boat on the night of that raucous party, and Ariel had been given the chance to invite him into her world instead. With access to a treasure-trove of snarfblatts and dinglehoppers, as well as a chorus of mermaidens, he could have left the princedom for the chance to make pop music: underwater style. Melding old-timey harmonies and rhythms salvaged from the billowy depths of Davey Jones' locker, Dinosaur Feathers is kind of like that.

Go to our music page to hear Matt Singer's songs, "The Poet" and "Stacy J". ABOUT MATT First let me say that I represent Brooklyn but I was raised out of Jersey. Now then, I wrote my first song when I was four years old, sitting on the floor of my father's office, in a Manhattan law firm, where he was not happy. The song was called Beep-Beep-Bop-Bop-Bop-Beep – that was the hook anyway. Recording it on my dad's Dictaphone, the message I was trying to get across was that brushing your teeth is fun, and important. Now my father is a psychologist and he is happy.
