"Number Theory" by Richard Potter (Classic Rock Artist from North Carolina(NC))

Demonstrating a real mastery of his '50's and '60's influences, Richard Potter's latest CD, "Number Theory," is a thoroughly satisfying pop-rock hybrid album that succeeds on all levels. From echoes of '60's-era Neil Diamond (CD-opener, "Tell the Angels I Love You") to American Grafitti-era rock'n'roll ("Love is Blind") to the wonderfully Pulp Fiction-esque feel of the title track (featuring a terrific Herb Albert-inspired trumpet lead), Potter's solid sense of melody and pop dramatics gives his new 10-song collection a real cinematic flair. Elsewhere, "So Long" is a tuneful ballad blending Music Hall-style banjo strumming with the melancholy strains of cello, while "AM Radio (Everything I Need To Know)" is a driving rocker that's as convincing as the singer-songwriter's lighter, more pop-oriented songs. With an abundance of captivating melodies, interesting arrangements and solid performances, "Number Theory" is a terrific CD that showcases Richard Potter's original and contemporary musical vision to best effect.

"Sagittarius Passing Through" by Media Line Road (Classic Rock Artist from Pennsylvania(PA))

Media Line Road mix '60's and '70's-era pop-rock sensibilities with kaleidoscopic flair on their fine new CD, "Sagittarius Passing Through." Recalling classic rock bands such as Pink Floyd ("We're Not From Here"), The Doors ("I've Been Trying"), Moody Blues ("Fly"), and especially, the solo work of George Harrison, the 14-track collection features the kind of echo-y psychedelic effects that defined a lost era of Rock. CD-opener, "Old Belle's Bop," a tremolo-laden pop song with tasty slide licks, boasts more than a hint of George Harrison-like Top 40 charm, while "It's Kinda Creepy Baby" sounds like a demented carnival nightmare (check out the backward guitar overdubs). Re-visiting the Harrison reference, "Prayer" is a spiritual ballad with some excellent interplay between slide and mandolin, and "Good To Have You Back Again" exudes the polished pop of Harrison's work with Jeff Lynne. All told, Media Line Road's "Sagittarius Passing Through" CD is a potent and winning blend of classic and psychedelic rock influences that touches all the right bases.

RadioIndy is pleased to present 5 Track Mind with a GrIndie Award for the CD "30 Years Later"

RadioIndy is pleased to present 5 Track Mind with a GrIndie Award for the CD "30 Years Later"

5 Track Mind's CD, "30 Years Later" is an assembly of talented musicians from around the globe who began playing together…30 years ago. It's with this experience they achieve a sound that transcends fads and incorporates refined skills such as three part vocal harmonies and catchy, lyrical melodies. In the song "Signs" the tight vocal layering carries the track with smooth flowing ease, perhaps making even David Crosby take notice. "Stranger In The House" is an eerie ballad with Pink Floyd tendencies featuring striking guitar riffs and solid piano chords. There are allusions to the music that shares the bands history but with an advantage of hindsight. "30 Years Later" is a recommended album for those who wish to re-embark on classic rock music with a fresh perspective.

RadioIndy is pleased to present Michael Krebs & Band with a GrIndie Award for the CD "Don't Dream Your Life"

Michael Krebs & Band delivers an outstanding album, titled "Don't Dream Your Life," which is reminiscent of the classic rock style. This group has all the right pieces in place as they play with uniformity and are well focused. Lead vocalist Michael Krebs has a consistent, deep, and soulful sound quality that brings together these collections of well-written songs. Energetic and dynamic, "Birthdaysong" swirls together great lyrics while the background harmonies and instruments keep the rhythm moving. The acoustic version of the title track "Don't Dream Your Life" projects thought-provoking lyrics and vocals that are touching and sincere. Both versions of this song have a beautiful crisp and clean piano and subtle strings accompaniment. "Don't Dream Your Life" by Michael Krebs & Band exhibits a great classic rock feel and is an album well worth hearing.

No stranger to the music scene, Jeff Alan Ross, provides an impressive collection of 60's rock and roll and adult contemporary tracks on his latest disc "Lock My Feelings In A Jar." This album features great, original songs that reach well beyond the roots of yesteryear. The infectious opening track, "Love Is Raining Down" is burning with a guitar riff that's not only energetic but is played with intense precision. Not only is Ross a talented vocalist and guitarist but he really captures the audience with his skills on the piano as heard on "Angels In Disguise." As a writer, Ross has captured the essence of memorable lyrics that speak of emotional sentiments and melodies that will take you away to another time and place.
