Hard rocking songsmiths Tyketto release the video for the album title track taken from the upcoming studio offering Closer To The Sun, out on Friday March 20th, via Silver Lining Music. For pre-orders go to this location.

‘Closer To The Sun’ is a wistful, ethereal track about the allure of a free-spirited soul whose carefree perspective inspires both admiration and introspection.

"‘Closer To The Sun’ is a bit of a fantasy piece, really. I was thinking about Kate Hudson's character in the film ‘Almost Famous’” comments vocalist and founding member Danny Vaughn. “I think we have all known someone like that growing up, someone that laughs at life, lives just a little outside of the norm and sometimes seems to float through the world. What does she know that I don't know? The singer has caught a glimpse of this woman and has fallen deeply in love, despite knowing almost nothing about her. ‘What if I'm missing something in my own life? What if?’"

Watch/Listen to ‘Closer To The Sun’ below – video by Andy Pilkington at Very Metal Art.

Joined by Harry Scott Elliott on guitar, Ged Rylands on keyboards, Chris Childs (Thunder) on bass and Johnny Dee(Doro) on drums, Vaughn leads a lineup that brings exceptional performances and undeniable fire to every track, reaffirming Tyketto as one of rock’s most respected and enduring names. Closer To The Sun was recorded across multiple studios in the UK and Europe, including Flip Flop Studios and the legendary Rockfield Studios in Wales.

Listen to the first and second video and singles from Closer To The Sun – ‘Higher Than High’ and ‘We Rise’ – and watch the videos here – videos directed and edited by Scott Wardell and filmed by Paul Hollingsworth. 

Fresh from their critically-acclaimed headline performance at Planet Rock’s Winter’s End festival in Wales, and in celebration of their new album, Tyketto are gearing up for a full UK tour this April, with European dates set to be announced soon.

Rainy Park Release Debut Single “Dumb” - Out Now

"Dumb" tells the story of falling for someone you knew you shouldn’t trust from the start. Warning signs appear early, but hope and attraction blur your judgment. What begins as excitement slowly turns into attachment, and eventually into pain. - RAINY PARK

Driven by punchy guitar riffs, a tight rhythm section, and emotionally charged vocals, “Dumb”balances attitude with authenticity. The song builds from reflective verses into a powerful chorus that hits with both energy and honesty, showcasing the band’s ability to combine raw storytelling with emo dynamics.

The track delivers an adrenaline-fueled anthem built around the idea of pushing forward without hesitation—never slowing down and never taking your foot off the gas.

"Foot Off" puts us right back in the driver's seat of charging our way through open highways at break neck speed with our destination set to our Dirty Groove Rock roots. This one is for the fans that have been with us from the beginning and fans that want to know exactly what we're all about - still after 15 years of being a band." 

- Brandon Yeagley

“It’s somewhere between ZZ Top, Aerosmith, and Clutch. Right where I like to be baby. I’m happy we are back to funkin’. Ever since I was a wee little boy, that’s what’s always got my

motor running.” - Bishop

Lyrically, the song channels themes of determination, rebellion, and relentless drive. It’s a track that captures CROBOT'S high-energy spirit while encouraging listeners to keep charging ahead no matter the obstacles in

their path.

Shallow Rising Unveil Powerful New Single “Lens Of Time”

‘Lens of Time’ is the song that built

SHALLOW RISING dark, cinematic, and forged over years of evolution.”

"Lens Of Time" marks the beginning of multiple new releases planned from SHALLOW RISING throughout 2026.

Rising rock band SHALLOW RISING is set to release their powerful new single “Lens Of Time,” a track that blends emotional depth, soaring melodies, and cinematic intensity into a song that resonates long after the final

note fades. The track features SHALLOW RISING drummer Chris Adler, the critically acclaimed musician known for his work with Lamb Of God and Megadeth.

With “Lens Of Time,” SHALLOW RISING explores the idea of looking back at life through the perspective of experience — the memories, the regrets, the victories, and the moments that shape who we become. The song captures the feeling of reflection and growth, wrapped in a sonic atmosphere that is both haunting

and uplifting.

Driven by dynamic guitars, immersive production, and emotionally charged vocals, “Lens Of Time”showcases the band’s ability to combine modern rock power with thoughtful storytelling. The track builds from introspective verses into an explosive, anthemic chorus that captures the passage of time and the weight of the moments we carry with us.

‘Lens of Time’ was the first song we ever started writing together back in 2022. It went through multiple identities and evolutions before becoming what it is now. It’s dark, urgent, and cinematic the kind of track that feels like it belongs at the end of a dystopian thriller. It carries tension without offering easy answers, and that’s exactly why it mattered to us enough to keep rebuilding it until it hit.”

Tim King of SHALLOW RISING

SHALLOW RISING is a modern rock band with one goal: to destroy the expectations that title brings with it.The quintet - Alex Villarreal (Vocals), Tim Ossenfort (Guitar), Taylor Brandt (Bass), Tim King (Keyboards), and Chris Adler (Drums) draw from a diverse bank of influences to craft something unique but archetypical.The band came to life one winter in a cold basement in Sault Ste. Marie, Mich., where Ossenfort started writing demos and sharing them with his friend Chris Adler. The duo initially met at a recording session in Nashville, becoming good friends and later working together on a hardcore project.

Ultimately, they decided to take these new demos to the studio in LA, accompanied by Taylor Brandt. After some work it became obvious what was missing, and they added

Tim King onto the team. King, Brandt, and Ossenfort had all previously toured the country together extensively. Finally, Ossenfort reached out to Alex, another longtime friend, and the new group spent the next year rewriting their songs. Bringing together influences ranging from alternative rock, 70s prog, djent, EDM, pop, and metalcore, SHALLOW RISING provides listeners with a sound that is fresh, yet familiar.

The track explores themes of resilience, leadership, and the lasting impact of those willing to stand up for something greater than themselves.

From the opening notes, the song builds an atmosphere of anticipation before exploding into a dynamic wall of guitars, driving rhythms, and commanding vocals. The chorus rises with an anthemic force designed to echo in arenas, creating a sense of unity and purpose that resonates with listeners long after the

song ends.

"The overall theme points to how manipulated the majority of the population is by powerful entities with nefarious intentions, and how through the pursuit of that delusion by who it incentivizes, the burden is ultimately

endured by all." - TIDALS

The single highlights TIDALS' signature ability to merge powerful storytelling with expansive, modern rock production. With sweeping instrumentation and emotionally driven delivery, the band crafts a soundscape that feels both epic and deeply personal.

“When Heroes Speak” marks another important step forward for Tidals as they continue to gain attention for their cinematic sound and passionate songwriting.

MICHAEL MONROE NEW VIDEO/ SINGLE ‘SHINOLA’ OUT NOW UPCOMING ALBUM – OUTERSTELLAR – NEARS RELEASE

Wednesday February 18th, 2025 –

Michael Monroe unleash the unapologetic and electrifying third single ‘Shinola’, taken from the PRE-ORDER AT THIS LOCATION forthcoming studio album Outerstellar, due for release this Friday, February 20th via Silver Lining Music.

For Pre-orders go to THIS LOCATION.

‘Shinola’ takes aim at a morally corrupt emotional leech who exploits everyone in their orbit, only to reap the isolation they’ve sown. It’s a razor- sharp, crowd-rallying anthem that transforms collective exasperation into raw, liberating release.

“‘Shinola’ was obviously originally written about a certain jerk but unfortunately most of us can relate as we know a lot of them” comments Michael Monroe. “There’s a lot of negative, ignorant idiots in the world and sometimes it’s good to vent frustrations by singing about it. And Karma always

gets us in the end anyway!"

Watch/Listen to ‘Shinola’ below – video by Paul M Green.

The new album Outerstellar is an experience as much as a collection of great songs, a sweet smelling, leathery, glitter-shimmered, sweat-soaked raunch and punch wrapped in one of the great voices in rock ‘n’ roll. From loud crashing guitars to harmonicas, to gorgeous acoustic moments, you’ll sing, you’ll dance, you’ll shiver, you’ll shake, and you’ll smell this wonderful exhilarating record in all its weathered biker jacket incense-coated glory and you’ll also realize that whatever the hell is going on in the world right now, when you put this album on, it’s an instant escape to carefree days and an emancipation from worries, fears and woes.

Listen to the first and second video and singles from Outerstellar – ‘Rockin’ Horse’ and ‘Disconnected’ – and watch the videos here – videos by Leigh Brooks.

Outerstellar will see a whole burst of life when

Michael Monroe and band bring it to stages internationally over the course of the year. The first glimpse will happen on the Buckcherry UK co-headline tour, kicking off in Southampton on February 24, where fans will get to experience some of these new tracks live for the very first time. For a full list of upcoming shows and tickets visit: michaelmonroe.com

Outerstellar is out this Friday, February 20. To celebrate its release Michael Monroe and band will host a series of exclusive HMV in-store signing sessions across the UK, giving fans the opportunity to meet the band up close, have their albums signed and capture the moment with photos.

ELECTRIC RIVER RECORDS Officially Launched by Co- Founders Brandon Yeagley (Crobot) and Evan J. Thomas (Sound Fury Magazine, TAG Publicity)

A new current is surging through the independent music scene with the official launch of Electric River Records, a forward-thinking record label founded by creative visionary Evan J. Thomas (Sound Fury Magazine, TAG Publicity) and acclaimed musician and songwriter Brandon Yeagley (Crobot). Built on the foundation of artist empowerment, creative authenticity, and strategic brand development, Electric River Records sets out to become a home for artists looking to build sustainable and impactful careers.



Electric River Records emerges at a time when artists are seeking more than just distribution — they’re searching for partnership, creative direction, and long-term brand development. The label was created to bridge the gap between artistic vision and industry execution, combining musical expertise, visual storytelling, and marketing strategy into a cohesive artist-first approach.

“Electric River Records is about building something that flows naturally with artists’ creativity while giving them the tools, guidance, and support they need to grow,” said co-founder Evan J. Thomas. “We’re focused on developing identity, not just releasing music.”

Brandon Yeagley, known for his powerful presence as both a performer and songwriter, brings a deep understanding of the artist experience and creative process to the label’s leadership. “We want Electric River Records to be a place where artists feel supported creatively and professionally,” said Yeagley. “Our goal is to help artists grow while staying true to who they are and what they want to say.”

Electric River Records will focus on artist development, visual branding, marketing and publicity strategy, creative content production, and strategic industry partnerships. The label aims to create a collaborative environment where artists are not only heard but also strategically positioned for growth in today’s evolving music landscape.

By blending artistic creativity with modern music industry strategy, Electric River Records is poised to create opportunities for emerging and established artists alike while building a brand rooted in authenticity, innovation, and long-term artist success.

MISSION STATEMENT

Electric River Records is an artist-first music services collective, not a traditional label.

The brainchild of Evan J. Thomas (TAG Publicity,

Sound Fury Magazine, Bad Ass Radio Network) and

Brandon Yeagley (Vocalist of Crobot) brought

​this all together.

We help artists live and create in flow by offering à la carte support across every part of their career—music, visuals, merch, publicity, production, and strategy—all in one ecosystem.

Our team is made up of real industry veterans and artists with Billboard Top 10s, major press, radio, and digital platforms, and we use that experience to shine a spotlight on your work—not own it.

There are no long-term contracts, no ownership grabs, and you keep your masters. You choose how to use us. We simply help the world see what you’ve already built.

Follow the path. Let it form you.

BILLBOARD-CHARTING ROCK FRONTMAN BRANDON YEAGLEY LAUNCHES PERFORMANCE-BASED MUSIC SCHOOL IN HIS HOMETOWN OF POTTSVILLE, PENNSYLVANIA

Let There Be Rock Schools proudly announces the opening of

Let There Be Rock School – Pottsville, a performance-based music education center co-owned by internationally touring musician Brandon Yeagley, frontman of the hard rock band Crobot—a band with multiple Top 20 Billboard-charting singles and a Top 10 Billboard hit with the song "Low Life."

The school officially opens Monday, March 2, and is located at 2300 Mahantongo Street, Pottsville, Pennsylvania—in the same region where Yeagley first discovered music, formed early bands, and began the journey that led to a sustained international touring career.

Let There Be Rock School – Pottsville was founded with a clear mission: to serve as a proof of concept that students from Schuylkill County can build meaningful, lifelong careers in music while remaining rooted in their community.

A PERFORMANCE - FIRST APPROACH TO MUSIC EDUCATION

Let There Be Rock School – Pottsville is built around a performance-based curriculum, setting it apart from traditional lesson models that focus exclusively on private instruction. Students don’t just learn their instrument—they learn how to collaborate in bands, rehearse with purpose, prepare for live performances, and step on stage with confidence.

Programs are available for children, teens, and adults, with instruction offered in guitar, bass, drums, vocals, keyboards, songwriting, improvisation, and ensemble performance. Students may enroll in one-on-one lessons, band programs, or a combination of both, with regular live showcases serving as key developmental milestones.

The school emphasizes a safe, encouraging, and kid-friendly environment, prioritizing confidence, teamwork, discipline, creativity, and self-expression—skills that extend far beyond music.

FROM LOCAL ROOTS TO GLOBAL STAGES— AND BACK AGAIN

Yeagley’s involvement goes well beyond name recognition. With decades of real-world experience touring internationally, releasing charting records, and navigating the modern music industry, he has helped shape the school’s curriculum to reflect practical, real-world musical pathways, not just theory.

After years on the road, Yeagley made a deliberate decision to reinvest his knowledge and experience back into the community that shaped him.

AN INCUBATOR FOR THE NEXT GENERATION

Let There Be Rock School – Pottsville is designed to function as a creative incubator, supporting students at every stage—from first lessons to advanced performance. While not every student will pursue music professionally, the curriculum is structured to ensure that every student gains confidence, resilience, and a strong creative foundation.

Through community partnerships, live performances, and youth-focused programming, the school aims to strengthen the local arts ecosystem while offering students a tangible example of what sustained creative careers can look like.

OPEN HOUSE & ENROLLMENT INFORMATION

The school will host an Open House from February 23 through February 26, running nightly from 5:00 PM to 8:00 PM. Families and prospective students are invited to tour the facility, meet instructors, and learn more about available programs.

Regular school hours beginning March 2:

Monday–Thursday | 3:30 PM – 8:30 PM

Enrollment is currently open, with space limited.

THE PUBLIK Unleashes Bold, Unfiltered New Single “Guaranteed”, A Fearless Rock Anthem Challenging Modern Censorship, Hypocrisy, and Social Division

THE PUBLIK returns with their explosive and unapologetic new single, “Guaranteed,” a track that refuses to pull punches while diving headfirst into one of today’s most controversial cultural conversations — the erosion of free expression and the rise of performative morality in modern society.

Driven by raw energy, sharp lyrical delivery, and the band’s signature hard-hitting sonic intensity, “Guaranteed” stands as both a rallying cry and a reflection of growing frustrations felt across America. The track blends aggressive rock instrumentation with emotionally charged storytelling, creating a song that is as thought-provoking as it is sonically powerful.

At its core, “Guaranteed” challenges listeners to confront uncomfortable truths about modern discourse, social division, and the blurred lines between personal belief and public condemnation.

Speaking about the inspiration behind the song, THE PUBLIK shares:

“‘Guaranteed’ is about how in America right now we’ve gradually lost the freedom of speech to the point now where when you do say what you want to say and truly express concerns or beliefs, the threat of being reprimanded is very real. Furthermore, the same people enforcing these things are the same people who think they’d get into heaven and deserve some form of righteous, rewarded afterlife, while in reality no god would ever reward this fake mask of devotion while you’re splitting families apart and promoting pure hatred in their everyday lives. We live in a country where so many people are disguising and excusing their wrongdoings and ill wills and writing them off as ‘political views’.”

Musically, “Guaranteed” captures THE PUBLIKat their most intense and honest. The track fuses gritty guitar work, commanding rhythms, and emotionally charged vocal delivery to create a sound that mirrors the urgency of its message. The band continues to solidify their reputation for crafting music that doesn’t just entertain but sparks conversation and reflection.

With “Guaranteed,” THE PUBLIK reinforces their commitment to fearless artistic expression, pushing boundaries both musically and lyrically while remaining rooted in authenticity and emotional truth. The single marks another step forward in the band’s evolution as they continue to carve their place in the modern rock landscape.

Fans of bold, socially conscious rock music will find “Guaranteed” to be both a powerful listening experience and a call to think deeper about the world around them.

"GUARANTEED"

IS AVAILABLE ON ALL STREAMING PLATFORMS

Band Bio:

THE PUBLIK is a 4-piece Alternative Rock band based out of Chicago. Formed in 2019,

THE PUBLIK has meticulously paved a path through the Chicago rock scenes with their distinct musical precision and destructive live performances. THE PUBLIK is a representation of an unfitting jigsaw puzzle of influences, spanning back decades and across genres including funk, post-punk, and alternative, landing on an idiosyncratic take on Alternative Rock. Constructed with chaotically scattered leads, melodic but sharp rhythm, and thunderous percussion, they deliver nothing short of a powerful experience that remains in the minds of new and returning listeners. After the release of their debut LP Deeper Still,

THE PUBLIK continues to expand their presence, having played at some of Chicago’s most recognizable venues such as Reggie’s, Cobra Lounge, The Burlington, The Cubby Bear, Beat Kitchen, Bookclub and more, as well as being featured in Passdown Magazine’s eighth issue in October of 2024.

Four Thirty Four Breaks Through the Noise with Explosive New Single “Stuck Out”

FOUR THIRTY FOUR are back with “Stuck Out,” a high-octane new single that takes aim at thefrustration and fallout of modern-day breakups. Marking the band’s fourth release with

producer Kevin McNoldy, the track captures FOUR THIRTY FOUR at their most focused, intense, and emotionally charged. With hard-hitting riffs, driving rhythms, and emotionally charged vocals, the track showcases the band’s signature blend of modern rock intensity and relatable storytelling.

FOUR THIRTY FOUR continues to build momentum within the rock scene by delivering music that connects with fans through authenticity and relentless energy. With

“Stuck Out,” FOUR THIRTY FOUR pushes their sound to new heights, combining crushing instrumentation with memorable hooks that are sure to resonate with listeners and ignite

live audiences.

Lyrically, "Stuck Out" explores the breakdown of communication—two people talking past each other until there’s no way forward. It’s a breakup song for the present day: honest, loud, and unapologetic.

Fans can expect “Stuck Out” to further cement Four Thirty Four as a band to watch in the modern rock landscape. The single highlights the group’s evolution as songwriters and performers, capturing the urgency and passion that defines their music.

Sonically, FOUR THIRTY FOUR draw comparisons to Velvet Revolver on steroids, blending classicrock attitude with modern urgency and polish. “Stuck Out” is built to catch your ear and yourheart, delivering a hook-heavy rush that resonates long after the final

chorus fades.

“Stuck Out” is available on all major

streaming platforms.
