Jeff Plankenhorn Unveils Single ‘Alone at Sea’ – New Disc Sept 29th
Plankenhorn’s songwriting, expressive vocals, and musicianship are front and center on Alone At Sea produced by Colin Linden (Bruce Cockburn, Keb Mo). Lyrically that exploration manifests in songs such as the title track, which poured out of Plankenhorn, aka Plank, so fast, he had to be convinced not to tamper with it. “Alone At Sea” is nestled between two of the album’s many up-tempo tunes and envisions an adventurous soul who’s searching for self-awareness and learns to appreciate solitude — as Plank has since moved to Canada’s Vancouver Island freed him from his previously landlocked Austin, Texas existence. Plankenhorn explains that the song “Alone At Sea” is almost a stream of consciousness, a song I wrote combining the search for self-awareness and love for adventure. To find yourself alone but to be OK. But who will you leave behind?”

The song serves as the perfect introduction to RIIZE, with the boys singing about chasing their dreams and creating memories together. “East to the south, to the north, to the west side…we RIIZE!”
Craig Owens releases new album VOLUME 1 on Velocity Records
Owens has brought new life to favorites from his vast catalog of work, pulling songs from Chiodos, Destroy Rebuild Until God Shows, Isles & Glaciers and badXchannels. Tracks like “Baby, You Wouldn’t Last A Minute On The Creek” (Chiodos) and “GOLD” (Isles & Glaciers) transform into lush, emotional piano ballads. Destroy Rebuild Until God Shows track “Mr. Owl Ate My Metal Worm” gets an acoustic makeover while still capturing the intensity of the original. “It’s Easy” marks the only totally new song on the record, a rich auricular experience about seeking relief. The album concludes with a bright rendition of Chiodos hit “3 AM” that is begging to be sung-a-long too. VOLUME 1 serves an incredible journey through Owens writing and performance ability, spanning eighteen years of work.

LA electronic/pop artist Annie O’Malley drops new single “Klose the Door”
LA area songwriter and online persona Annie O’Malley is excited to announce her new single “Klose the Door”, which dropped August 18th on all DSPs. On the heels of her recent single “11th Hour”, her relentless work ethic is showing no signs of slowing down and has built her own following of like-minded creatives and musical misfits. While Annie may fit nicely into pockets of pop and indie songwriter playlists, her music stands out immediately with her inclusion of hyperpop, drum & bass, and a unique singer-songwriter finesse. We take that back, she actually stands out like a bright multi-color bow, but she’ll fit perfectly on the Coachella bill (anyone reading?).
