We caught up with Honey & Houston at the Ohiolina Music Festival in Mount Vernon, OH after their set. We talked about their home base of Cincinnati and what they're up to next.
The Salty Caramels use their name to say it all: their songs lace savory attitude with sweet harmonies. 2014's Damn Good Woman shows the band's ability to express that musical dynamic so quickly. . . and successfully. The girls came by Oranjudi
2016's Behave was a labor of love for Erika Hughes and her band, the Well Mannered. Recorded in the privacy of their guitarist Trevor Edge's home, the 9-month-or-so project tested the band's endurance in the studio, as well as their ability to
A band straddling the border of Ohio and Kentucky, straddles a mix of country and folk music with sweet, and subtly powerful vocals from both Heather Turner and Lauren Houston. The band, similar to their fronting ladies, move seamlessly from

Some bands make it easy for you to fall in love with them. HoneyHoney is the definition of that. They might not qualify as a "band" so much, but are a duo consisting of vocalized Ohioan Suzanne Santo, and musical partner Ben Jaffe. It wasn't

Sometimes there's a band that comes out of nowhere and grabs you, Susto is one of those bands for us. They're not reinventing the wheel, but instead, taking the wheel and making it feel new again. "Friends, Lovers, Ex-Lovers: Whatever" off o
After taking a break from the music world and starting a coffee shop called Quitters (not joking), Kathleen Edwards is back and doing part of her tour with Dawes as her backing band. In our world this is the biggest news of 2016 so far. Two
