New York City is one of those places that will leave you completely in a trance. People sing songs about it, numerous shows are set in the heart of the city, and so many great actors and musicians call New York home. Glint happens to be one of those that can say they’ve made it […]
I’ll have to admit, although the Indie genre has been on the rise lately, it seems as though it is being changed drastically along the way. Florence and the Machine is probably the earliest example of Indie that I can personally remember, and it seems as though the following artists being dubbed as “Indie rock/alternative artists” […]

I’m all for female empowerment, and can definitely appreciate when I hear a talented and successful female musical artist. Another thing that is a huge part of music culture now is electronica […]
When I was 8 years old, Good Charlotte was my favorite band. (Besides the Backstreet Boys, but we’re talking about a completely different genre here).
