The Singles Bar: Musclemilk!’s “I’m So Down”
If you’re a constant reader of this here site, you’re familiar with Boston’s duo Halston. Did you know that 1/2 of that band, Carlos Halston, is also a member of another duo, called MuscleMilk!? This band features lead singer Justine, and works a very early Eighties downtown vibe. Think Yoko Ono’s “Walking On Thin Ice”, Blondie, and ESG mixed into a blender with some hip-hop drumming worked in and you get a very good sense of where their new single, […]
The Blerd Interview: Bleu
When interacting with power-pop artist/in-demand songwriter/mutton-chop maestro William “Bleu” McAuley, one thing comes into crisp, refreshing focus: Bleu is one nice dude.

But for the benefit of those who can’t just head over to a Boston bar, we’re gonna give ya a little education. Besides, I like explaining shit. Despite whatever similarities they might have in nomenclature to a certain soft-rock band about the Seventies and Eighties, there’s nothing Yacht-rocky about the CRB. If you […]
Boston Music Alert: Get Yer RIBS (The Band, Not the Food) Here!
How happening are RIBS right now? They’re one of the finalists for Best New Act in Boston in this year’s Boston Phoenix-sponsored Best Music of 2011 poll. How happening are Ribs right now? They’re about to embark on a tour of the East Coast that will take them from Beantown all the way to Athens, Georgia. In order to fund said tour, they’ve created a nifty little limited-edition tee shirt. They’re selling these shirts on their website (helpfully linked above), and […]
