August is ‘Cover Song Month’ on AmericasWhiteBoy.com.
We did this last year and we had a blast sharing some of our favorite cover songs.
Banquise is a French band, which makes their cover of a Ratt song (“Round And Round”) much more impressive. Who knew an iconic 80’s hair-metal song can be made into an indie track that sounds fresh.

I keep an ear out for new music. I’m used to discovering new bands from my days as a music journalist. Even though this is mostly a sports blog, I still add quite a bit of music and pop culture content.
I received a lot of great feedback from my past hipster music playlist posts. A lot of emails came in from readers who recommended new tracks to me, which I love. I will keep posting these as long as I keep receiving all the feedback.
I have been called a hipster on more than one occasion. I like indie music more than any other genre of music. Don’t get me wrong, I can rock out to Eddie Money or Madonna (depending on the amount of alcohol in my system).
I’ve decided to write a monthly post dedicated to introducing twelve great, new indie songs I’m currently listening to. Most of the songs are fresh and have been released in the second half of 2012 or early in 2013.

Maynard James Keenan has an ability to turn a side-project into a great band that can stand alone. Keenan is best known for Tool, but he’s also a part of A Perfect Circle and Puscifer.
Everyone on the site loves a great cover song. Last year, we even had a full month of daily cover songs. Many bands have attempted to cover Queen‘s “Bohemian Rhapsody”, but Puscifer nailed it.
If you’re a fan of corny music videos, you will enjoy this one.

No matter what type of music you like, live music is where the soul lives.
Back when I traveled around covering music, I went to plenty shows with a preconceived idea of what I was going to write…especially if I wasn’t a fan of a band’s album. My mind has been changed so many times. You honestly cannot have an opinion on a band without seeing them in person.
I comprised a list of bands who have tour dates this Spring and Early Summer. I purposely left out the major music festivals (Coachella, Lollapalozza, Bonnaroo) because everybody knows they are amazing.
Here is a list of tours you can’t miss this Spring. Continue reading

I received a lot of great feedback from my my hipster music post in July. A lot of emails came in from readers who recommended new tracks to me, which I love. I hope that continues for months to come.
I have been called a hipster on more than one occasion. I like indie music more than any other genre of music. Don’t get me wrong, I can rock out to Bon Jovi or Carley Rae Jepsen (depending on the amount of alcohol in my system).
