    Giveaway: Kelly Clarkson & The Fray Tickets!

    September 2, 2012 /

    Kelly Clarkson sure has had a busy summer! Her latest album ‘Stronger’ has already delivered three hit singles, she served as a mentor on ABC’s series Duets, landed herself a big-wig boyfriend and has been traveling around the U.S. with fellow rockers, The Fray. Along the way, she’s created a viral buzz with her renditions of some of the most recognizable songs in music during the ‘fan request’ section of her show. It’s no doubt that she’ll be closing the tour (on Sept. 15th) in Nashville with a bang – and Tragic Kingdom will be there to capture every moment – but before we celebrate her choice for Music City, let’s look…

    Artist To Watch: Josiah Leming

    July 16, 2012 /

    After capturing the attention of millions across the world, Josiah Leming is preparing for the success that was apparent since he was a small child. It was at age 8 that the American born performer self-taught himself piano and began composing music in his childhood home in Morristown, Tennessee. The second of nine children, Leming was a natural talent from the very beginning. A talent he was eager to share with the world. When Josiah turned 17, he took a leap of faith to follow his dream. The singer-songwriter withdrew from high school, packed up his car, – which became the roof over his head – and moved to Texas.…

    First Listen: No Doubt "Settle Down"

    July 16, 2012 /

    After a 10 year hiatus, the band that inspired this very blog is back! No Doubt returns with their first single of their upcoming record ‘Push & Shove’. And I have to admit, I was nervous about what “Settle Down” would sound like. Would they still have it? Would it deliver in the way so many were expecting? Would Gwen & Co. be able to get back to the top? Well, the answer is yes… Yes… and YES! “Settle Down” is an instant classic, giving listeners what they always loved about the ska-pop/rock band, but without sounding recycled. Listen to the new single below right now and be sure to…

    Crouching Martin, Hidden Rihanna

    June 4, 2012 /

    The long awaited video for Coldplay‘s recent collaboration with Rihanna surfaced online this morning. “Princess of China” is the band’s forth single from the album Mylo Xyloto and created quite a stir when the album was released, including the R&B diva. The video features the band’s Chris Martin as a stealth ninja (kicks and swords included) and Rihanna as a self-proclaimed [on Twitter] “gangsta goth geisha.” The two are shown in a variety of scenes that are reminiscent of those from the 2000 flick ‘Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon’ and the clip is edited to appear as a trailer for a tragic love story.
