Nraakors is the brainchild of James Kasper, Joseph Norman and Gigi Macabre.Their music includes aspects of grunge, prog, noise rock, thrash metal, jazz fusion, folk, neoclassical and free improv. The result is a bit like the composers; weird, a bit roughhewn, somewhat sentimental and equal parts sardonic and sincere.

Amazingly produced and performed.  Here's a bit from his bio- Orlando's first EP release marks a milestone in his promising music career. 'Leave Me Bleeding' is out now and already making waves having being picked...

Alf Jetzer is an accomplished musician. He has worked on his craft for 4 decades. His life has been compared to one of a monk. Not that he doesn't speak. He does and his world is filled with beautiful music. But in the way that he is completely devoted to one thing- His music. His work has paid off. This is the music that people search for to meditate to. To put in the background of movies. To daydream to. This is such high-quality instrumental sound. This is music that can literally change...

Dian Sheng grew up in China, where he studied piano since the age of 5. He studied English from a very young age as well. He has only been living in England for 7 years and he speaks it like a native. He also composes beautiful songs and writes lyrics that seem to go flawlessly with the music. His song "The way before" is a sad song about love gone wrong. Yeah, we've heard it 1000x before. But I swear this was new and very vulnerable. I really like Dian Sheng and the plans he has for the...

These girls are UNbelievable! When you hear their music you won't believe that they are ages- 13 (Ashlyn) and 15 (Scarlet). The songs are sturctured so well. It isn't like:"They aren't good for teenagers." Uh uh. They are good. It all started when Scarlet wrote a song called "Iron Shield" and it took off. It's a powerful song about rising above a trajedy that was going on with a third sister. I didn't get too much into that because it was such a deep subject. Then, younger sister, Ashlyn,...

This really felt more like a conversation than an interview. Adam is so well educated in music. We spoke about David Bowie, Elton John and even Bruce Sprinsteen, from this side of the pond. Adam spoke of playing live and studio technology. I love conversations like this. It makes me grateful to be around in this time. To have the best in technology and to still be able to go into a coffee house and see someone with an old guitar singing his heart out to the other 4 people in the room....

Iain MacDonald wrote a song on an album that went gold in the 80s, Johnny Hates Jazz. It was a beautiful ballad (always my favorites). He has only gotten better over the years. He has written for various labels and even started his own. He can work his way around a recording studio with his eyes closed. He writes song that are upbeat and dancy and about things he cares about. Such as the enviroment. But he does it in a very "non preachy' way. Iain is a special man and this show is definetely...

just looking around on LongRoad's website, you can see how long these guys have been at this. They have photos and concert dates going back years. While I was talking to them I could tell how much this album and song means to them. When you hear their music, it will become obvious to you (and maybe them again) that this band may have taken a "Long Road" to success but it will be worth it.

Zarah really has done it all. From being on stage with bands like the Goo Goo Dolls to building her own show, to writing books, to teach our youth skills that will help them in every area of life. She is fun. Smart. Giving. And has talent that she hasn't even tapped into yet. Much of this she has accomplished in the aftermath of losing one of the most important people in her life. Do you want an energy charge? This episode will give you one.
