She's Moody Cool... Sheva Elliot is a blues-rock singer-songwriter from LA who makes "cosmic witch rock" a la Janis Joplin, Aretha, or Yola. She uses her mighty voice to talk about feminism, environmentalism, sobriety in the music industry, and spiritual connection. The provocative cover at first made me doubt the content... but when I opened this "magical musical book", it lived and breathed an emotional artist, with voice and content that really moved me. Sheva is compared to a Janis Joplin and I'm sure Janis is flattered somewhere out in the cosmos ...

The bands style continues to evolve with a mix of the heavier rock sounds coming out of Detroit and the college indie sounds of Ann Arbor.

Reaching back to find some Great Rock Music I got a tip and re-discovered an artist, a Singer-Songwriter that's been flying under the Radar for some time.... Ronnie I. Ronnie's album "Ronderosa Rancho Motel" is a gem full of great Classic Rock Tunes that remind me of the Greats, with songs that sound like they could be Crosby, Stills & Nash, and some that go all the way to The Who. Ronnie I. definitely Rocks, but he can also bring it down to some really heartfelt emotional ballads. I haven't got to his other albums yet, but I've heard a new one is just around the corner....Check him out on Spotify and all the other Digital platforms. #GREATROCKMUSIC

ROCK REVIEW: MUSIC CONNECTION – Hollywood, CA January 3, 2005 Vol. XXIX No. 1 Thumbing it’s snout at studio trickery, this Dawg’s concept is to have it’s members plug in and – with no prior rehearsal – rip into some from-the-gut blues rock music until an “unpolished gem of rock” emerges. On the band’s second full-lengther, the results are right up any classic rock fan’s alley. Robin Trower, Bad Company, Steve Marriot and Grand Funk are all avidly channeled by these seasoned, hard-hitting musicians. “Are You Still My Lover” stands out. ..RAW+ROCK=RAWK DAWG

Great Rock Group Here.... Great Classic Rock feels with Bombardier Jones reminds me of Elvis Costello, Tom Petty, George Harrison and beyond. The great full production took me back to when Music really mattered to me... As the driving force behind Bombardier Jones, Baltimore singer-songwriter Ian Jones creates a good feeling on stage and a natural sound in the studio. His love for mid-60s British rock and late-80s post-punk blend and collide into an original sound that plays with the entire history of rock n roll. The new Bombardier Jones record, "Dare To Hope," is a collection of rich vocal ballads, horn-toasted twang rock and mellow earworms that dare the listener to reach for hope in an anxious era. A follow-up to 2015’s breakup album "Can't Conquer Me;" it was recorded with renowned session musicians Dave Mattacks, Jon Carroll and Kevin Barry. This is FEEL GOOD ROCK that I think you'll have to check out!

He was Born in San Juan, Puerto Rico. played classical Piano from age of 7, and after discovering The Beatles at age 14, turned his attention to Rock. He has been a music teacher for almost 2 decades as well as a songwriter and recording artist. His music echos the great Classic Rock bands from the 60's and 70's with the more synth-driven New Wave bands of the early 80's. Check out Weyus's songs on his website above, you'll love it.

PRSNA defines the triumph & tragedy of life with melodic vocals, infectious guitars & a blood rushing rhythm that dresses modern pop punk with their indie & pop rock roots so handsomely, yet so rebellious in the same attire.
When life becomes a series of "Fight or Flight & "Sink or Swim", will you be up for the challenge? Long Island, NY pop rock outfit PRSNA certainly is, emerging from the shadow & swinging with a vengeance.
PRSNA (Formerly known as Persona) define the triumph & tragedies of life through melodic vocals, infectious guitars & a blood rushing rhythm that dresses modern pop punk with their indie rock roots so handsomely, yet so rebellious in the same attire.
Since 2011, PRSNA has released 2 EPs. 10 Singles accompanied by music videos & have shared the stage with acts such as Third Eye Blind, Twenty-One Pilots & Envy on the Coast. In 2014, after years of consistent touring & the release of their sophomore EP "Mayday, We Crashed". the band decided it be best to go on hiatus. During their hiatus, Tom Spartinos (Vocals & Guitar) & Costas Themistocleous (Guitar) would continue writing & demoing new music. In 2017, PRSNA re-emerged debuting their first single in 3 years entitled "Say What You Say". Not long after this release, drummer CJ Kostaras (ex Giants at Large) had joined the group followed by former bassist Will Suraci leaving due to personal reasons. PRSNAs' original drummer, Sam Trestman would establish his roll as the bassist from this point forward.
In 2018, a lawsuit was filed against the group by an artist under going the same name "Persona". The group decided to settle the matter civilly & went on to change their name to PRSNA.
