Written by Brandon Ryan On a Saturday afternoon, a white package from Nashville Tennessee, came to my mail box with my name written on it.

Written by Nate Smith When one thinks of Australia, a narrow minded person such as my self dreams of Crocodile Dundee. Australians also avidly play cricket; a game I enjoy watching but can not understand. Australia also holds a few hidden gems. One of these gems resides in the musical form of Paul Turner. Paul’s […]
Written by Courtney Fry As the first chords of the opening track “Vipers, Snakes and Actors” graced my eardrums, I knew I was going to enjoy this album.
