Everywhere Band: Music Is...

Read "Music Is..." reviewed by Dan Bilawsky


Everywhere Band has a bit of an identity crisis on this three-song EP. Multi-reedist/composer/leader Joshua Kwassman takes the band through reworkings of two semi-modern pop hits--John Mayer's “Clarity" and Dave Matthews' “Satellite"-- with mixed results, painting an uneven picture of what this band can do. Sometimes this music cooks under the flame of guitarist Michael Valeanu's ...

Peter Eldridge: Mad Heaven

Read "Mad Heaven" reviewed by Dan Bilawsky

Maria Neckam: Deeper

Read "Deeper" reviewed by Dan Bilawsky

The State of Grace 2009: Deanna Witkowski, Ike Sturm and Jeff Baker

Read "The State of Grace 2009: Deanna Witkowski, Ike Sturm and Jeff Baker" reviewed by C. Michael Bailey


The role of the church, or more specifically, Christianity, in American culture cannot be overestimated even by those who do not subscribe to the Christian faith.
