Indie Spotlight: Pebaluna
It's obvious Lauren Coleman spent her childhood listening to Aretha Franklin in her parents' car and her Sundays singing in a Las Vegas church choir. As an adult, she infuses Pebaluna, the band named after her lost dog, with soulful vocals reminiscent of the Motown era but also tinged with reggae, country,… more

Indie Spotlight: Lost Weekend
If you love Passion Pit, then you'll love this foursome from Winnipeg, Canada, which pays homage to New Wave and 90s alt with electro-pop that's as contemporary as it is deep.

The trio is a family affair consisting of brothers Seamus Blackwell (vocals, guitar), Aidan Blackwell (bass), and David Blackwell (drums). Following up their debut album HA HA HA is Ride Away,… more

Indie Spotlight: Young and Sick
Your average act they are not. Young & Sick have turned down six-figure recording deals in favor of a much more unconventional approach to distribution and promotion that has intrigued outlets like Forbes. Their new single, "Continuum," is available for download only on the "TOR underweb," an obscure system intended to enable online anonymity and with… more

Indie Spotlight: Tommy & The High Pilots
When his first band, Holden, broke up in 2007, Tommy Cantillon left New York and returned to his roots in Santa Barbara, ready for Act II. This time, he'd tap best friends Steve Libby (bass) and Matt Palermo (drums), and his brother, Michael Cantillon (guitar/keyboards) to complement his vocals. With influences like Tom Petty, Bruce Springsteen and Peter Gabriel, more
