January 26, 2015
by Barry Adkins

I’m a horrible Jenn Grinels fan.  Despite how enamored I was with her stunning performance opening up for Carbon Leaf some time ago, or how her audience participation is the best I’ve witnessed since Frank Zappa, I’ve still managed to go forever and ...

by Barry Adkins

  Whoa! Talk about an EP that wastes no time knocking you off your feet. Come And Get It is the new powerhouse release from the Toronto, Canada band, Blind Race, and the name is as much a challenge as it is an invitation. From the onset of the ...

June 5, 2014
by Barry Adkins

Notes ring off the strings, echoing as if from reverberating bells. Thus is the beginning of Baltimore-based Walking With Giants' new EP, One By One, set for release on June 21. This promising hard-rock act blew me out of the water last year with it ...

May 11, 2014
by Barry Adkins

  I expect that most of you have never heard of David Benedict. It's not your fault! He's the new guy in town, hailing from the Southeast, and he's just getting settled. That being said, I'd like to introduce you to him. Since 2009, he has bee ...

March 11, 2014

  Stepping within this quiet sanctum, I could almost hear a pin drop. We weren't alone, my girlfriend and I, as we walked into The Barns at Wolf Trap in Vienna, Va., but it certainly felt that way due to the atmosphere these walls evoked. I'm ...
