And we’re back with another fabulous episode of “Bands and Artists we Like and Support that Aren’t as Good as GHU”! Here with us today we have the incredible Tori Adams! 💖 We are talking about music of course, and everything she has coming down the pike. There is much laugh and much sing! Also thank you to our sponsor this week, carrots! Not any specific brand, just the idea of carrots. 🥕 So check...
I’d heard OF Traverse the Abyss before but I’d never HEARD them, so when the powers that be over at FAM told me to check ‘em out I was delighted to oblige. Based out of Scranton, PA (home of The Office, I bet no one’s ever mentioned that before) they started in the scene in 2016. I aimlessly scrolled through all their Facebook photos, and they seem like a lot of fun (it’s not weird, this...
Unlike other singers I have come to know, I probably would not have encountered this young talent if I hadn’t heard her mother, Wendy Koulouris, sing in the band the Sweet Judys. After covering that band I started following the group and its singers as I often do with most bands I cover. A couple years after I first heard the Sweet Judys, I saw Wendy post about her daughter, Elliana, performing. I saw a...
Alicia Lynn is a model (even for First Angel Media), performer, and artisan from the Pittsburgh area who is taking her crafts to new heights (even sometimes as a stilt-walker)! Inspired from a vast range of past influences, Alicia Lynn has always used fearless approaches to opening new doors and expanding her repertoire. I have had the pleasure to recently interview her and learn more about how she has blossomed her career, what some of...
It’s hard for me to pick just one thing to focus on when I am checking out a new band. Some bands I am captivated by the lead guitarist and how they are able to capture the crowd with their amazing guitar riffs. Anyone that saw Van Halen in concert would undoubtedly have to say that Eddie Van Halen was arguably one of the top 10 guitarists of all time. I could talk about every...
As you read last week, the one-year anniversary of the Music Makes Me Facebook group just recently passed. It’s been a great experience running that group and if you want to read more, check out last week’s article. I’ve featured a vast array of genres from all over the world. In the last few months, I’ve spotlighted Christian artists of all different types on Sundays. I’ve enjoyed doing that and look forward to sharing someone...
As I’m sure you know, I have a Facebook group named “Music Makes Me” that I post a daily music video along with my weekly First Angel Media article. This Facebook group is coming up this week on its one-year anniversary. I can hardly believe it myself. One of the things that I have attempted to do during that time is to not repeat an artist that I have featured in earlier weeks. As you...
Last month’s playlist, Romeo and Juliet, was for the month of February and those that celebrated Valentines Day. Ironically I created this month’s playlist over a year ago and titled it Life. The last couple of weeks have been a bit crazy in my life and as some of you may have noticed I’ve not had an article in three weeks. But I am back again today and hopefully fully back in the saddle. It...
Most week’s my Music Makes Me article is pretty light. For example some of the recent week’s articles have been about music genres that are a little different. This week I discovered a band named Convictions who are a Christian Metal band. Obviously most bands’ lyrics are based on something in their real lives. Convictions is no exception. A lot of their songs deal with the struggles of so many of us. The first Convictions...
