Motobunny Roars Into Action With Their Self Titled Debut On Rusty Knuckles Music

Link over to Innocent Words for more great articles

"Motobunny is a brand new, Icona-Pop-Meets-Iggy-Pop, American rock n’ roll band with two dynamic frontwomen and a debut album poised for a May 12th release on Rusty Knuckles Music. With tracks already spinning around the country on stations like Sirius/XM, KROQ (LA), KEXP (Seattle), WFMU (NJ) and WRUR (New York), momentum is building and plans are being laid for release parties in their hometowns of Phoenix and Los Angeles. Led by dual singers Christa Collins and Nicole Laurrene, the band’s aesthetic has as much to do with Laurrene’s Michigan rock roots as the surf sounds and pounding percussion of LA’s punk and garage scenes. Rarely does a rock band present with two such well-matched, intense vocalists, but the rest of Motobunny keep up easily, ripping through songs straight out of a Tarantino film.

Husky Burnette, Tales From East End Blvd: Goodbye Shore Road Tavern

Tales From East End Blvd:
Goodbye Shore Road Tavern

What a crazy, fun and emotional weekend Ive had with friends in Philadelphia PA. We were at a bar that all of us traveling musicians know, The Shore Road Tavern in Philly. We know it, we love it and if you're like me you can get sucked in here and never want to leave. I'm still here actually. I'm on tour right now but I keep coming back here on this run, using it as a central working point since there's an apartment above the bar that they use for the bands. Plus, it's just hard to leave this time. Last Friday night, March 27th 2015, was the bar's last public show. Very bittersweet. The line-up was Paul Waggener, Joshua Morningstar, Gallows Bound, Saint Christopher and then we did our set to close out the night. It was truly an amazing time. Wait, scratch out the word amazing...let's say "fucking magical". Even that doesn't describe it all that well. The owner, Mike Fiedler, celebrated the last show (which was also his birthday) with a smile on his face all night long. I think everyone in attendance had that smile. You could just feel the positivity in the room. Mike and his crew of misfit friends are the best of the best so you can't help but to smile and be happy while you're here. Their hospitality and loyalty make this place what it is. Couldn't ask for a better group of fans, friends and family.

The rowdy ones from Texas known as Whiskeydick are tearing up stages all over Europe and in their wake of acoustic metal destruction have been garnering a massive response from fans. It is damn great to see one of the hardest working bands we know, broadcasting their message far and wide and kicking ass every night. Whiskeydick does their talking from the stage and proves once again, that its all about the songs and a vibe that is as well worn in as your favorite pair of boots.

Custom Guitars Made From Reclaimed Wood In Detroit, From CBS News

The final product of Mark Wallace's guitars, made from reclaimed wood in Detroit

Check out the original post on CBS News

"Detroit has more than 70,000 abandoned buildings. Among them is an old Cadillac plant that houses piles of wood. Where others see trash, Mark Wallace sees buried treasure.

Wallace started making guitars out of Detroit's reclaimed wood a year and a half ago. He not only enjoys making the instruments but also playing them.

"It feels great, as an instrument. It's also great to know that it's something I built and something that came out of the city of Detroit," Wallace told me.

Decades ago the wood for the city's buildings came from old growth forests where trees grew slowly. Wallace says the lumber has tight grain patterns and provides great resonance and sound.

William Elliot Whitmore - Healing To Do, Brand New Track and New Album From Anti Records

"Born into a family of farmers in Iowa, William Elliott Whitmore learned early on to translate his knowledge of diversifying crops and caring for roots to his musical career; “[music is] this beautiful, fragile thing and you try to hold onto it and take care of it. You try to write good songs that make people think and maybe feel something, too, but you have to switch it up…” After fifteen years, the singer-songwriter knows a thing or two enough about keeping things fresh and productive.

The Built Not Bought Dilemma In Regards To A True DIY Aesthetic

The Built Not Bought Dilemma In Regards To A True DIY Aesthetic

 
In a time when more individuals are looking to find a deeper sense of purpose within the products they own, buy or create, a new mantra has emerged entitled "Built Not Bought". For many, this is old hat, especially in the motorcycle community. But it might be new to some and that is where you get to enjoy a very interesting diatribe written up on the Salzmoto blog page. 

In our minds eye we fully understand the mission and purpose in the article and could not agree more. It has been amazing to see the #builtnotbought mantra permeate Instagram. Yet to truly live up to that catch phrase, it would mean that you indeed built something from absolute scratch. Very few humans on earth can do that, except for maybe John Britten or José Manuel Hermo Barreiro
