"Alone with You" by Clinton Strowder (Pop Artist from California(CA))

"Alone with You" by Clinton Strowder is an impressive high energy pop album by a very talented singer. The well polished production quality makes the tracks crisply pump out of your speakers. The album opens with the catchy ballad "Biography" where Clinton sings to the heavens. "Dream to be" is a great pop tune reminiscent of 80s pop stars such as Lionel Richie. The track features a great funk guitar scratch technique, which would put even "Superfly" himself to shame. The standout track is the album's first single "First kiss" which is about that special first kiss between two passionate lovers. The track also features more funk elements with heavy slap bass to flow with the soulful melody. One of our favorite tracks is "Stay With Me" which features all the makings for a hit - group vocals, hand claps and a catchy beat to go along with the catchy chorus. Overall this is a great pop album which also features elements of soul, funk and even jazz. Be sure to check this one out, especially if you're a fan of soulful pop artists such as Lionel Richie, Boys to Men and even Michael Jackson.

“Feed the Need” by Feed the Need (Pop/Rock artist from Long Island, New York (NY))

"Feed the Need" is an enjoyable self-titled rock album with surf rock and jazz elements from Feed the Need. Though all four band members are still in high school, Feed the Need has crafted an album that displays their strong musical capabilities on guitar, bass, drums, and keyboards. The vocals are youthful and the lyrics are full of angst, as many of the songs are undoubtedly about the girls they obsess over at their schools. Nevertheless, you'll find yourself bobbing your head to the beat and singing along with the catchy choruses, agreeing that "Weirdness makes the world go 'round." The title track "Feed the Need" is well recorded and allows these youngsters to be heard to their full potential. "Light Up My World" has great keyboard and guitar progressions at the introduction and a catchy chorus to boot. The highlight of the album is "Without Words," which is an instrumental jam session with great bass and keyboard lines and an impressive guitar solo showcasing the band's musical finesse. Anyone who enjoys quirky, youthful surf rock should check out this fine album.

"Taking Chances" by Gunner Jump (Rock/Pop artist from California (CA))

Gunner Jump's "Taking Chances" is a Christian country rock EP brought to you by the powerful duo of Jon Jump and J.G. "Gunner" Franklin. The influence of '70s southern rock is a big part of the sound, as well as blues, funk, and R&B, and the emphasis on good songwriting is well apparent throughout. Gunner's vocals are energetic, and he delivers the inspiring and well thought out lyrics nicely with a great rock feel. The arrangements showcase Gunner Jump's great variance in what is largely an arena sound. There are some creative changes as well as instruments introduced that are clearly inspired by genres outside of Christian country rock. The production quality is good, so turn up the volume on this one. Highlights include "California," with its gritty lead guitar and great rock lyrics, and the addition of horns in the chorus adds a burst of power. "Remember Me" has a nice acoustic guitar progression, inspiring lyrics, and a great vocal performance. "You're My Girl" opens with an uncharacteristic drum machine and evolves into a beautiful love song. If you enjoy spiritual southern rock that takes a few chances, give Gunner Jump a try.
