Take a listen in the song below: He has also released some tour dates that you can find on Reverb's site. What do you think of the new song?

Nerd Prom … And a Lesson in Facebook Marketing
Friday is Bop Skizzum's 2nd Annual Nerd Prom! I love the idea for this event because it is just as entertaining for the fans as it is for the bands. Not only do we get to see a great show, but we get to watch our friends compete for Prom King and Queen! Submissions are now closed, but see the entries for Prom King and Queen on Bop Skizzum's Facebook page: Can't wait to see who is crowned King and Queen 2013!

Hometown For The Holidays 2012
It's that time of year again!! Honestly I get more excited for the announcement of Hometown for the Holidays bands than I do for Christmas! I mean, the number of times I blog about it should tell you something. Tonight KTCL will be announcing the top 10 bands at Not So Silent Night at the First Bank Center. I will not be there (yes, I failed to obtain tickets before they sold out), but I have a few friends who will be texting me...as they are announced (no, I can't wait for the official announcement). I know you want to rate these bands, so go sign up ...
New Music Tuesday – Take To The Oars – Morning Coffee – Local Edition!
I love new music. I love it even more when it comes from some of my favorite local acts, like Take to the Oars. Take a listen to their new single which will be on their EP due out in early 2013!
New Music Tuesday – The Last Time by Gary Lightbody and Taylor Swift
Yes, I do like Taylor Swift. No, it isn't very 'indie' of me. But I like Gary Lightbody even more than I like Taylor Swift. So when I heard they did a duet on her new album, I had to find it, immediately. I think this song sounds more like Snowpatrol with backup vocals by Taylor, but I really like it! Take a listen for yourself. What do you think? I haven't bought Taylor's new album, but I am definitely thinking about it. Especially because I love this song.
Dan Tedesco – Lions Lair – Tonight 10/19
Need an awesome show to go to? I highly recommend heading over to the Lion's Lair tonight to see Dan Tedesco. Plus, opening is the one and only Shelby Britton. Dan has been described as "Folk Rock on Steriods" and while I haven't had the pleasure of seeing him (yet), he comes HIGHLY recommended by many in the local scene, and he isn't even from around here! Go check out his site to hear some of his music for yourself. See you at Lion's Lair tonight!

This show is going to be off the hook. Teaser for Rachel and the Kings video: (more…)
