PHILLY HIP HOP IS MAKING A COMEBACK!

Hip Hop Artist: CASSIDY LARSINY

When Cassidy burst onto the scene in 2004, he achieved the status of “legendary” fairly quickly.  After releasing such hits as “Hotel” (featuring R. Kelly), “Husslin” featuring Swizz Beats, and “I’m A Hustla”, Cassidy seemed to vanish.

News broke that Cassidy was involved in a life-threatening car accident in 2006, and little has been seen or heard from him since.

Until now.

In the past year, Cassidy has been releasing freestyle after freestyle, banger after banger.  And we’re not ready for any of it.  Case in point – this recent Vlad feature that’s steady climbing over 200,000 views, and Cassidy is showing no signs of stopping.

He’s set to release a new record this year, for now you can check out his conquer profile and this sick freestyle courtesy of VLAD TV.

ROCK POP DANCE IN ONE BAND? YOLO!

Rock Artist: YOLO

This band is more than just a Drake reference.  You Only Live Once is a curious mix of pop, hardcore rock, and everything in between, and they just get better with age.  The Los-Angeles based group has been featured on talent shows such as American Idol, X Factor, and America’s Got Talent, as well as headlined for some major bands.

YOLO may look sweet, but their music packs a serious wake-up punch.  Formed from two sisters, their style jumps from the seriously heavy rock feel like found in their song, “Do or Die” to dance-rock anthem, “Lost Me At Goodbye”, in a heartbeat.  A sound to rival mainstream bands like Paramore and the like.

Check out the many sounds of You Only Live Once on their profile!

GET TO KNOW LANEY LYNX

POP ARTIST: LANEY LYNX

Music for each individual is a very unique and different experience. Everyone has an artist that stands out above the rest. If I had a category for best female artist my vote would go to Laney Lynx.

Her unique style is not defined by one genre of music. Her sound tends to sway towards pop but it has an electric and soulful sound as well. Her music draws you in, makes you want to dance and sing along. Her newest single lovesick takes you through a journey of what it feels like when we have those butterflies in our stomach for the first time meeting that special someone.

My favorite song “Perfectly Flawed” reminds us all that there is no perfect person we all are flawed in one way or another but it is those flaws that make us unique and different. Those flaws help us to stand out.

Listen to Perfectly Flawed on Get Conquer:

She’ll be performing alongside Mathilda Heenehan at 7 p.m.

Rock Cover Show: Led Zeppelin Experience

The best Led Zeppelin tribute on the planet

-Dennis D’Amico, executive producer (Paul McCartney)

Band Summary:

The Led Zeppelin Experience is basically a tribute to the great British Super Live Group from the ancient times of late 1968 unto the thundering power of the 1973 and over.  The sound, appearance, mannerism, equipment, and performance will absolutely convince the most diehard supporter of the Led Zeppelin band to believe that they’re really watching the original band performing live.

About The Band:

Led Zeppelin Experience authentically brings back the legend British Super Live Group Band reminiscing the good old days when the “Hammer of the Gods” hit America and went viral globally.

The appearance, trait, performance, as well as native English accents are appropriately organized to give you that magical feel and great night of musical experience.  John Paul Jones, a member of the Led Zeppelin Band, said this when signing an autograph, “this is pretty scary” laying emphasis on the resemblance and similarity of every character in the pictures.  This exceptional and revolutionary band originates from Seattle, WA.

All around America and beyond, the group has been delivering warm and exhilarating performances to fans of Led Zeppelin, bringing back the memories of the 1968 Madison Square Garden performance.  The group has performed together with Molly Hatchet, Nazareth, Peter Frampton, Kansas, Foreigner, Eric Burden, The Animals, Jefferson Starship, and many others.

The group has close to 1 million international supporters and still growing.  Other rock stars like them and many fans of the Led Zeppelin group have publicly testified they were actually watching the original British Super Live Group.

Band Bio:

The Led Zeppelin group has been awesome in living up to standard.  As soon as the lighting faints the appearance, sounds, and feeling takes their supporters back to Madison Square Garden where the group had their first performance in 1968.  The equipment, stage, outfits, traits, and accents will surely convince any supporter that thinks it’s impossible.

The group consists of four characters with full equipment.  Prepared to take a smooth drive or flight to any concert reliant to the location and will journey to any destination both within the country and beyond.

The band encourages all forms of promotions and is entirely keen to do live interviews or audio [radio] interviews and live performances on radio to promote any occasion if required.  Our managerial crew will assist in any means to assure a successful event.

In over 30-60 different locations, we have put in place radio spots as well as music for DJ voice overs.  We bring fans together and encourage contests, gatherings, client-sponsorships, etc.  It’s the job of our managerial crew to cover every single part of the concert with promoters to assure a nice and successful occasion.

FRESH SOUND OF MILLION YOUNG

Funk Pop: MillionYoung

Blasting out of every speaker in my house is my new obsession Million Young.

Mike Diaz of MillionYoung lives in Miami Florida. MillionYoung is a fresh new sound that combines traditional instruments like guitar and fuses them with funk and electronica into one tropical soundscape masterpiece. When you listen to MillionYoung you are transported to downtown Miami Cruising with the top down listening to the sounds of the city. Honestly ,I get the feeling of being in Miami when I listen to the song hammock. You can tell that his environment influences his music. Which is great, because who doesn’t love Miami?

Vocally , MillionYoung reminds me of indie rock bands from the early 2000 which is slightly nostalgic. However it’s funky dance, up beat rhythm, gives it a fresh contemporary feel which truly in compasses what Miami is all about. No surprise that MillionYoung has been described as chillwave the sound that is trending right now.

Another favorite song is “Cynthia”. The beat of this song is reminiscent of trance music which gives it a cool dreamlike quality. MillionYoung sounds like it should be playing in a high-end Fashion Boutique. If you listen closely you can hear what sounds like a xylophone giving it almost innocent quality that’s clear and refreshing.

MillionYoung is no rookie when it comes to performing since his EP album in 2009 entitled, “SunnDreamm” he is had a wide variety of performances. His experience includes touring internationally, and performing at live music festivals.

Currently, MillionYoung is working on his fourth album entitled,” Rare form”

ON THE ROAD AGAIN…WITH LITTLE TEXAS

Country Band: Little Texas

On the road again….

Back in the 90s Little Texas took the country world by storm. Selling over 7 million albums, receiving 3 Grammy nominations plus honors from both the Academy of Country Music (Vocal Group Of The Year) and the Country Music Association (Album Of The Year). Their first radio release in 1991, “Some Guys Have All The Love,” became a Top-10 hit, as did their next single, “First Time For Everything.

The band toured with fellow musicians such as Clint Black, Trisha Yearwood, Tim McGraw and Travis Tritt. Little Texas broke a record in country music history. They had three different songs on three different charts with three different lead singers, all at the same time. It is a feat that has never been repeated since by any band.

 

In 1997 the band decided to take a  Hiatus after years of touring and producing. They each worked on individual projects and spent time with family and friends. In 2004 the four original members rebuilt the franchise with a new sound. This year, Little Texas is breaking new sonic ground with the release of their 8th album, Young For A Long Time https://www.littletexasonline.com/music

 

Little Texas always knows the number one job is to consistently deliver to the fan base that they’ve acquired over the years.
