MUSIC
can feel like a favorite pair of jeans—too good to ever leave behind. But music runs deeper. It’s personal. That makes it difficult to avoid getting trapped in a private music bubble, continuously replaying the same albums to get that familiar, but still thrilling, feeling. Yet, that squashes exploration and expansion, and it certainly doesn’t help the music industry flourish or provide opportunities for young artists to become the next big thing.
Rockhound reviews are meant to expose readers, and advent rock music listeners, to current rock artists who draw sonic inspirations from classic bands, musicians and songwriters like Patti Smith, Jimi Hendrix, Leonard Cohen, Led Zeppelin, Joni Mitchell, John Prine, Talking Heads, and so many more. But these artists don’t just mimic that classic rock sound. They are creating a sound and identity that is completely their own—and that deserves the same recognition we afford the names above.
With a lens on the alternative indie scene, the Rockhound offers a glimpse into the best musicians and bands worth listening to. In addition to reviews and interviews, the Rockhound covers timely topics in the music business industry.
