The latest solo album is out from Martin, called A Million Roses.   Produced with Mike Hagler and featuring the work of famous stringmaster Lloyd Maines, the album punches hard into some Americana and touches on some pretty serious subject matter at the same time from sexual abuse to the far-right Christian nationalist groups.  There are also some light-hearted songs and a few memories as well, as McCormack looks at growing up fishing on the Nippersink Creek and watching as a boy the homespun rodeo that took place in Jackson Hole, Wyoming.   You can get this album for a special deal too, by downloading it as this link.   While you are there, pick up a set of holiday cards created by Martin.  Just click on the merch button to get you to the page. Support the showWe are always grateful to have you listening to STRUNG OUT.

While the band has just finished its sixth CD, its four members are no strangers to the Chicago music scene. GO TIME! is comprised of former Prairie Town members Scott Niekelski (composer/lead guitar/vocals), Marko Marketti (bass), Steve Grzenia (percussion) and Paul Schmidt (Guitar) formerly of the Cromulents and the Shifties. GO TIME! officially formed in 2009. The band members have like-minded musical tastes and settled into a harder-edged, power pop groove. Scott is a prolific song writer. “Speak” was released in 2009, “Hit It” in December 2010, “ Boneshaker in January 2012, “Tight Like Wood” in 2013m “Ratsel” in January 2015 and now “Six” in January 2016. Deeply submerged in amped up jangle and buzz, along with a healthy dose of subtle pop riffs GO TIME recorded in their home studio and mastered with Mike Hagler at King Size Sound Labs known for mixing and mastering bands such as Wilco, Neko Case, The New Pornographers, The Redwalls, John Langford, The Mekons, Billy Bragg, Ezra Furman and Caliphone, just to name a few. Skope Magazine says: “Go Time! continues to consolidate their position as one of the nation’s foremost purveyors of the power pop form with their latest studio album and build on their reputation as a great band with fiery chemistry and fantastic songs” Vents Masgazine says: “Go Time! is a rare unit; few bands could manage producing such an abundance of fine material within one calendar year and, they clear any goal they set for themselves with room to spare.” Band Blurb says: Go Time continues to mark themselves as one of the best power pop guitar bands working today. They are instrumentally superb on every level and couple that with songwriting that imaginatively goes the extra mile to make substantive personal and wider statements. Gas House Radio says: “Go Time are building a legacy at this point and, after nearly ten years as a working band and a half dozen studio albums under their belt, they have achieved much. VI leaves them poised to achieve more”. RazorFish Reviews says: “Go Time has earned a well-deserved reputation as one of the best modern power pop bands that will only be further burnished by this new release”. Indie Music Review says: “Go Time’s sixth album continues to expand their growing body of first class rock music with equally sharp songwriting”.

Jen Reilly and Eddy Bluma aka The New Zeitgeist met as solo artists reentering the music scene in Chicago of 2009, but might as well have been around since 1929. "Old souls," they have been described by many, the two began collaborating as a folk duo with soulful harmonies and old spirituals. Their devotions range from Hank Williams and Woody Guthrie to Elvis, Joni, The Staple Singers, and Allison Krauss. Their upcoming first and full-length album attempts to capture the timeless and undying spirit of the ages, entitled the "New Zeitegists," (pronounced zī¬¬-tĭ-gĭsts). Their coined word, New Zeitegists implies a revolution as well as a return to the simple things and things that matter; a return to "geist"-spirit, soul, and body. Previous to living in Chicago, in the spring of 2009 Jen Reilly spent four months living at an artists' colony developing her skills and experience in songwriting, performing, and recording at the Contemporary Music Center, an invitation-only community on the island of Martha's Vineyard. Eddy's homegrown Chicago area bands (Candy Coated Tongues, Sux Royale) centered around DeKalb before moving downtown. The two have played at Uncommon Ground almost as a home base since meeting on the Clark location at an open mic in 2009, when Eddy offered Jen to borrow his guitar. Performances by the married duo have included The Heartland Café, Skokie Theatre, Red Line Tap, Mayne Stage, The Store, Miseracordia Home's Annual Family Fest, several Independent Chicago Songwriter's Festivals, and Billy Corgan's Madame Zuzu's. Involvement in local music communities has included Independent Chicago, Old Town School of Folk Music, and Chicago Acoustic Underground. Their song, "Warm and Dry" has been played on WDCB's Folk Festival with Lily Kuzma. Eddy and Jen are proud to be releasing their first self-titled full album project with Mike Hagler and John Abbey at Kingsize Sound Labs in December of 2014.

After months of writing songs in a small town hardware store, just outside of Rockford Illinois, La Historia began playing shows regionally and recording with Mike Hagler at Kingsize Sound Labs in Chicago. The band members have all played in a variety of bands, including The Braves and Gods Reflex, over the last fifteen years—sometimes […]
