Mirador’s Debut Album Blends Folklore, Blues, and Gritty Rock Power
LOS ANGELES, CA- I’ll admit it … when I hit play on MIRADOR’s debut, I wasn’t expecting to hear Jake Kiszka step into the role of a lead vocalist. After years of following Greta Van Fleet, I had absolutely no idea he had that…

G Flip Ignites With Anthemic Single “Bed on Fire”

J.I.D and Clipse Confront Harsh Realities on “Community”

Bathe Bring “Surf R&B” Vibes to The Bellwether and Shine on Latest Album “Inside Voice(s)”
