When the Dust Settles by Noble Savages

When the Dust Settles by Noble Savages

San Francisco based Noble Savages forge a cool, groove-oriented blend of jazz/swing and rock with animated rhythms, choppy guitars and a healthy amount of brass on their full-length debut When the Dust Settles. Some highlights from this 12-song LP include the upbeat opener, “Take a Walk”, with somber lead vocals and a tremendous guitar lead as well as the reggae fused track “The Werewolf”.

New Personal Record by Seth Timbs

New Personal Record by Seth Timbs

On his latest album New Personal Record, Seth Timbs mixes some classic music genres with modern production and sensibilities. Throughout this album, Timbs re-interprets musical standards and lyrical methods with songs with ironic twists such as “Give Up On Your Dreams” and “Uneasy Street” to the more methodical approach on the soulful rocker “Ivory Tower”.

Shake Well Before Opening by Mozey

Shake Well Before Opening by Mozey

Mozey plays a raw style of retro rock and roll with the slightest bit of classic funk flavoring to make it all very interesting. Still, the songs on Shake Well Before Opening are diverse with just enough folk and alternative inspired tracks and the use of vintage instruments (like the banjo) and effects (like the talk box) to make for a very interesting listen.
