So how does a band from behind the “Orange Curtain” get a residency at the Hollywood Hot Spot Silverlake Lounge? By being damn good, that’s how! The Steelwells are the first Artist of the Week for 2010. The truth is, there is a lot of good music coming out of Orange County & Long Beach, …
According to Nielson Soundscan numbers music sales rose in 2009. While this is good news, album sales took a dive! Digital sales were up from last year, but those were only sales that rose. The Beatles, Taylor Swift, MJ, Beyonce and Lady Ga-Ga were some of the most successful artists in ’09. Do these numbers …
As we get back into the swing of things, I will be taking this Friday off, but I’ll be back in “010” with more great artist to feature and spotlight. For now, enjoy this recent concert performance of the love of my life Norah Jones. So sit back, relax and let your eyes be pleased! …
Since we didn’t post a new ETS Music show, our companion blog isn’t out today. Bad news for some, great news for Sia fans. The Zero 7 singer/songwriter has long been on my list of must see acts. Her weird persona and stage presence is intriguing, to say the least. As I was bumping around …

Merry Christmas Everyone! Now that we’ve journeyed through Enter the Shell, we’ll take a look back at the music we loved in 2009. That is why we do this, isn’t it? Many things happened in 2009 that we note worthy in music, we lost some influential people, some artists became superstars and other just lost …
