We cannot help where we start the journey of our life’s grand purpose. For some, that’s a road we walk from birth to oblivion that never deviates down life’s many differing pathways. For John-Allison Weiss, that journey is taking it’s time navigating an endless array of crossroads, the result of a handful of years that have held many changes in Weiss’s life. The construct of change, like time itself, is inescapable. It’s how we navigate the change that defines us, it’s what Weiss is pondering with their first album in 7 years, The Long Way.

Over 11 songs, Weiss embraces the spirit of rebirth born of change, the opportunity to sit perfectly still with oneself and enquire to the deepest needs of your spirit. We are so rarely afforded the opportunity of introspection and rarer still equipped to process what information we find, but on The Long Way Weiss deftly manages to channel deep change into exultant arrival.

Weiss has long been a master of pop hooks that weave in and out of meditative lyrics. From the opening strums of “Dust Storm” Weiss builds to the edge of a crescendo and lets us hang there, letting us know we might at any second plummet over but instilling within us a deep trust that when we do, the landing will be worth the fall. “Different Now” is a tender goodbye to a love that has lost its heart, a churning guitar dancing with a driving synth that feels at times like the innumerable headlights of the road out of town are the only thing left in this world.

    Crash Nebula

    Indie Rock

    Crash Nebula is the solo project of Jer Berkin (drummer of The Sonder Bombs). This band is their creative outlet, and they are thrilled to finally be sharing these songs with all of you. 

    Music has always been the thing that has keeps Jer going, even when it feels impossible to take on another day. It has always helped her cope, survive, and thrive. Crash Nebula is Jer's way of finally carving out that space for themselves to be the artist they always have been.  
  • Molly O'Malley

    Molly O'Malley

    Singer-Songwriter

    Indie pop songwriter Molly O’Malley has been releasing a string of EPs over the past few years, establishing their sound via a winning combination of sugary dream pop, ‘90s guitars, and confessional songwriting. As they describes it, they make “daydream punk for your long drive home.” Fans heard from her last year with her EP, goodwill toy, and this year they’ve been teasing their follow-up with their latest single, “Golden Hour.”

    O’Malley is back with an early listen to their latest three-track EP, Nobody Parties (Like Molly), along with an accompanying video for the record’s opener, “Diern"

    “Diern” opens the EP with a stylistic turn for O’Malley, diving further into the ‘90s alternative side of her songwriting, complete with walls of hazy shoegaze guitars and lyrics full of gnarled cathartic confessions. The track plays like a final release of pent-up anger, as O’Malley calls out those who prey on others’ vulnerability, yet they also imbue the track with an irresistible melodic core.

  • The Heavy Forgiveness

    The Heavy Forgiveness

    Alternative

    Following a decade slugging it out in the greater Cleveland metropolitan area's basements and bars with Flipcoin, The You Suck Flying Circus, The Bears & The Bees, Jason Kaminski, and Total Downer, singer-songwriter and multi-instrumentalist Ben Wolgamuth made a record he always wanted to make: big hooks, tough guitars, and grindy synth leads cradle the emotionally vulnerable, self-deprecating-but-not-quite-sardonic songwriting he's made his calling card. The Heavy Forgiveness is Wolgamuth with five of his most trusted conspirators, working diligently to bring the emotional highs of big rock and roll to life before your very eyes!
