Hailing all the way from County Wicklow, this twenty-six year old Irish lad is a combination of a folk singer and acoustic journeyman, traveling and telling his stories to those with open ears. And his songs are stories- lyrics are the focus of The End of History and each...

Having been excited for months for the new A&E series "The Two Coreys" like the good little fan I am, I tuned in, turned off my cell phone, and completely focused on my two childhood crushes/inspirations last Sunday night. There probably is not any other person in the world rooting for a Corey comeback as much as myself and this new series was what I believed to be just the beginning. I must admit with...

Not only is Feel his 7th album to date, he just recently wrote and composed, but not performed the entire soundtrack to Ethan Hawke's film The Hottest State. While the soundtrack for the film has Harris performing just two of the songs and the likes of Willie Nelson, Emmylou Harris, M.Ward, Norah Jones and Cat Power taking hold of...

Remember being young and in total desperate I'm going to die without you love?

Movies like Once, happen ...well, just once in awhile. A 2007 Sundance darling, Once is a unique love story set in Ireland. The film is a departure from the regular summer blockbusters and yes, it is a musical- thats right, a musical, but not the break out into song with jazz hands type musicals we're used to.
