TARAH WHO? Releases "HURT"

Tarah Who? has just released the second single from their forthcoming EP, '64 Women' which will be available on International Women's Day, March 8th. 

Tarah Who? is a power trio in every sense of the phrase, bonded together by telepathic musical interplay and profound interpersonal connections. In addition to Tarah, the three-piece band also features bassist/backing vocalist Joey Southern, and drummer/backing vocalist Coralie Hervé.

"Hurt" is a very personal song and as Tarah explains: 

"I wrote this song a few years ago after a friendship had ended. Interestingly enough it was and felt like a break up even though this was never a love relationship in this sense.  We were friends.  We spent a lot of times on the road sharing stories and opening up, like good friends do.  We had a plan. We were going to be a team.  Then one day he emailed me saying that he could no longer be friends, thank you for taking me on this journey: 'I hope you are not mad'.  Never heard from him again."

Tarah suggests you listen loud drinking a strong Kentucky Mule.

MAZZY STAR "California"

Ahhh, how utterly dreamy to have Mazzy Star back.  Ever serene and sad, romantic and recondite, Seasons Of Your Day is their first album in 17 years.  There are several videos to support lead track "California"; we love this vintage road footage to complement the signature slide guitars of Dave Roback and haunting vocals of the ever-alluring Hope Sandoval, who beckons you to the coast, and beyond. Dim the lights and listen while sipping a St. George Absinthe Verde, which blends brandy with 'the unholy trinity of wormwood, fennel, and star anise', and  a secondary infusion mint, tarragon, opal basil, lemon balm, hyssop, meadowsweet, and stinging nettles.  And away you go...far far away.

BETHESDA "Go"

Voted Best Female Vocalist and Best Americana Band at this year's Cleveland Scene Music Awards, Bethesda is clearly making waves (water reference to their namesake -the mythical Pools of Bethesda- not the city in Maryland).  "Go",  from album The Reunion, showcases Shanna Delaney's crystal-clear voice delighting with a mighty hook played by a tight 5-piece band.  Irish dancers vs. hipster indie folk rockers on this fun clip, which deftly showcases the roots of their music with cool performances by all.  Can't wait to catch a show!

Best enjoyed while having an O'Hoppy IPA from the Ohio Brewing Company.
