Last Day Kiss – Fire Finds Freedom
Coming to you from Boston, MA is the talented duo of singer/songwriter Ashley Sonlin and guitarist/producer Juan Carreno. But don’t let their innocent smiles fool you into thinking they’re contestants; full of spunk and a blend of power vocals and complex musical arrangements, Last Day Kiss knows exactly what kind of contenders they are. Kicking […]
My Lucky Fish – Best Thing
Straight off the East Coast, with roots in Britain, Canada, and the USA, comes My Lucky Fish with their first album “Best Thing.” A working progress for a full 15 months, major efforts were put into this album. Without question, it all paid off in obvious skill and craftsmanship of every track. From catchy pop/funk […]
Queen Caveat – Mr. California
Queen Caveat is a perfect example of an in-your-face alternative rock band you just can’t help but love from the first time you witness them. Lauren Little, a gymnastic and graceful ball of hard-rocking energy, Ben Epand with his solid riffing and beautiful-sounding gravelly guitar, Will Weissman holding down the 5-string bass runs like a […]

10th Avenue – Don’t Know
Before reading the rest of this review, I should warn you; I am a huge fan of the pop/punk genre. 10th Avenue, a three piece out of Saskatchewan, Canada, delivers everything I love about the style in this effort from their album, ‘Weiners’. From the first riff, I’m right back into my own influences of […]
Haikaa – Everything I Know About Love
The best way to describe Haikaa is as a true artist; an accomplished author, and an amazing singer/songwriter, we’re so glad to count her as part of our global family. Like so many others in the Fish Pond, Haikaa has truly global roots to draw from, and a worldview which is peaceful, all encapsulating, and […]
Los Marty: But It’s All In Spanish……
So for my very first assignment as a writer for the Global Musician’s Fish Pond, I got to write an article about a band from Mexico. Their name is Los Marty and their lyrics are all in Spanish. Now, I may know a lot of languages, but Spanish is not one of them. Stubborn as […]
