The Debut Album From Lauren Morse Is Here

A beautiful quote. One that I couldn’t have expressed better myself. I find it necessary to more artists to share their bleeding heart of change for the world. Nowadays, too many mindless, mediocre, arrogant and soulless folks are creating art. Whether with quick gimmicks, trendy quotas or AI thievery (I am Looking
at you Spotify), we are missing the Soul of the Muse. Everyone wants to get rich, get famous and get laid. In fact, most male musicians will admit to only learning an instrument in order to find their way into the skirts of females. Fucking PATHETIC! What happened to the passion? How can we reverse the Social Media bandwagon of quantity over quality? We can start by supporting Artists, Musicians and Creatives alike who have no other purpose in their art outside of living a Life of their Dreams and Being the Change they Wish to See in the World. Artists/Musicians like Lauren Morse.

TRIVAX: Iranian Black Metal & The Anti-Islamic Memorandum New Moon Aries-March 19th, 2026  

A Backstory From Melinoe: As I sit to create this article, I contemplate exactly where to begin with this story. Which message do I ultimately seek to give? Why was it Vital for me to collaborate with Shayan, Frontman of TRIVAX? Often, lost in my never-ending search for meaning within my intuitive endeavors. I suppose I shall summarize a bit of the beginning. Starting with the Full Circle, Saturn Return Closing, personal Cycle, closure this has all spiritually manifested itself to be. I began my Anti-Christian journey, seedlings planted since childhood, and the mistrust within the Church I was raised to be devoted and faithful. The regime of my cultural lens and the nurture I received. The undertone to the Great American Nation.

The Binding Divide debut their single ‘Finding Forever’

‘Finding Forever’ is very engaging, and the production is layered nicely with Alysa’s voice pushed forward to really showcase her soulful tonality.  The bassline and drums lead the song into a steady gait, and the writing follows to create a beautiful segment of art.  The words draw the listener in with lovely storytelling before the one-minute mark with a familiar relationship thought, “I don’t know what you expect me to do/ I am losing myself in you/ And I don’t know what you expect me to say/ And I’m going crazy, crazy”.  There is carefully placed chaos that sonically pounds from underneath the prose and builds to the next set of lexicon in, “What am I gonna do when you’re stuck in my veins/ going straight to my heart and my brain/ You are the only truth/ I know it/ finding you/ I think I’m finding forever”.

TreeHouse Nashville- Waning Gibbous in Scorpio

Twas a fairly standard rainy, and mildly stormy, Nashville (almost Spring) Saturday. A perfect night for the Underground Music Scene of aspiring artists that lurk within the streets of this city. Ambitious beings, with a vision, a dream, a heart and a purpose to climb the mountain that is their artistic legacy. Here under the Waning Full Moon, now in Scorpio, hidden by the dark clouds. A perfect night to cozy up with a dear friend, enjoy an immaculate charcuterie board (handcrafted by Hive Board Nash) and experience the musical craft from the bleeding hearts of Nashville. TreeHouse Nash was hosting their March show at the lovely Rosemary Schultz’ home. I had the pleasure to witness to a night full of local, underground, debuting, passionate, and everything in between, artists, creatives and musicians. Here the community gathered into an intimate space, all for the shared love of music.

Meels Headlines The Station Inn

Meels comes to us via Los Angeles but you would never think it when hearing her sing. She has a sound that mirrors the legends that laid the groundwork before her. Joan Baez, Joni Mitchell, Linda Ronstadt and even Dolly herself would certainly lift a smile to know that this young lady is carrying on in a much-needed tradition of Americana and Folk. Tonight, she was supported by another Los Angeles resident named Phoebe Sanders.
