[PHOTOS] Dreamers play an intimate Show at BerlinNYC

I was absolutely thrilled when I learned that Dreamers would play a one-off show in their old home town New York at the cozy Lower East Side venue BerlinNYC before heading out to play Lollaplaooza on Sunday and then going on tour. Having settled in Los Angeles for now, this iridescent indie-rock trio is filling bigger[…]

3 Is A Band: The Greasy Slicks

A few days ago, I came across The Greasy Slicks, another absolutely rad indie blues rock band with psychedelic and even grunge touches. The main hubs -solely from my own perspective- for bands like this seem to be London, New York and Melbourne. This trio, and they are often trios, comes[…]

SONG PICK: Odina – You Loved Me, You Killed Me

“You loved Me, You Killed Me” is a quiet and sad song about the end of a relationship. “I loved mysteries until you became one” she sings about the moment when one realizes that love comes to an end. The song builds up beautifully, from the sparse, intimate guitar melody[…]

RELEASED TODAY: Skott – Wolf

Listen to new Scandinavian Skott’s soaring second single “Wolf”, out today. “Wolf is about not giving up on what your heart truly desires”, Skott says and that is a good message to be reminded of.

NEW TRACK: BOA – Pharaoh

  There’s something magical about “Pharao”, the new single by London synthpop band BOA because you don’t realize it at first how its wistfulness instantly grabs you and doesn’t let go. Powerful beats and heavy bass lines, over sparse piano melodies set the backdrop for achingly beautiful vocals and all together make[…]

SONG PICK: Ethan & the Reformation – Hollandia

From the start, there’s no escape and falling for “Hollandia” is unavoidable! The new single by Manchester quintet Ethan & The Reformation, is one irresistibly hot, fuzzy alt-rock gem with wistfully raspy vocals, steady beats and stellar guitar work. “Hollandia” comes with a clear 60s vibe yet so fresh and modern and simply totally[…]

NEW ALBUM: Purple – Bodacious

After their highly acclaimed debut album “409”, the Texas trio Purple just released the absolutely fabulous follow-up “Bodacious”. The twelve tracks on the album are deliciously diverse, taking from different genres what pleases and what fits. There’s the immediately catchy funkiness of  -Red Hot Chili Peppers comes to mind- on “Mini Van”,[…]

Q&A with Black Heart

Black Heart is the solo project of Austrian musician Corina Cinkl. She just has released her debut album “All Is Lost”, a beautiful, dark and melancholic album that evokes The Cure of the “Pornography” era. Listen to the single “Shadows” here: We are excited that Corina took the time to[…]

NEW TRACK: Corbu – Better Better Off

Just came across the new single by New York duo Corbu and could not wait to put it out on glamglare! What I maybe like the most about “Better Better Off”, is its gorgeous flow. With it’s mellow, slightly trippy vibe, the track can be compared to the earlier works by Australia’s Tame Impala or fellow[…]
