Dutch guitarist and songwriter Amplify Me and The Voice (USA) contestant Jenna Cogan tell the dramatic tale of a bored wife and mother-to-be who, having got caught cheating, grieves the loss of her marriage, reflects on her past and emerges embracing the unknown of single and independent life.
Powerful and emotive guitar lines weave between a steady beat, layers of guitar and keyboard and intimate vocals for an authentic and wholesome pop sound.
Luminatus is a tale of perseverence. Formed in November 2009 as a symphonic metal cover band, performing the songs of Nightwish, Within Temptation, and Sirenia, among others, the band has weathered dozens of lineup changes, a pregnancy, a rehearsal studio fire, the mysterious disappearance of their promoter, and of course, Covid. Two members remain from the beginning: vocalist Holly McGinty, an operatic soprano from Yokohama, Japan, who originally fronted the symphonic metal band Adavant, and Dale Skutt, keyboardist and vocalist, who achieved modest college radio successin the early 2000s as bassist/vocalist of the pop-punk band Driver 6, signed to Liquid8 Records. He is also a sound designer, composer, and voice actor for Forteller Games, having worked on Gloomhaven, Frosthaven, The Isofarian Guard, Kinfire Chronicles, and Jaws of the Lion, as well as having composed music for Titan Motorcycles, the film 13 Hours in a Warehouse, and the video game Dice Tactics, and has collaborated and performed with Steven Patrick of Holy Soldier and legendary blues drummer Chico Chism.
Having released their first album "Forbidden Passages" in November 2016, several years passed again in a constantly rotating lineup until finally settling in with guitar prodigy Conrad Varela, winner of Alice Cooper's 2019 Proof in the Pudding" contest. He has also played in Cooper's backing band as well as backing Geoff Tate of Queensryche. Also joining Luminatus was Conrad's father, Rich Varela, on bass and JP Jones, formerly of Attic Toys, Veyron Crash, and Corridor 16. In November 2021, they recorded a collection of singles, aptly titled "The Singles," featuring vocals on "Frozen Waterfall" by Lane Lariviere of Run Definitely Run, with whom Luminatus has shared the stage at Phoenix ComiCon, DevCon, and other numerous festivals. Previously, Holly and Dale had sung backing vocals for RDR as well.
Luminatus has shared the stage with numerous powerhouses of metal, such as Sonata Arctica, Primal Fear, Alestorm, Ne Obliviscaris, and Arkona.

It took time until my latest album Whenever was ready to be released. Actually, the first contribution dated back to when I was only 15. Then I composed the song Enjoying My Day but it only got finished 25 years later when my mum completed the lyrics.
Whenever contains mainly pop songs and I was lucky to feature some amazing singers from the UK and great musicians worldwide although I am an unknown producer.
My aim has always been to create a timeless album that will still be listened to, or so I hope, in a few years’ time. For that reason I set the rule that most instruments should be recorded live. Hopefully the effort was worthwhile and you enjoy listening to the music. For more information please browse this website. Thank you for listening and thereby supporting me.
Never underestimate the power of a woman with her back to the wall. In March 2020, as Covid blew across the planet, the shutters came down on live venues and recording studios, and the music scene fell suddenly silent, Ghalia Volt faced the same dilemma as every other artist. What now?
The answer was One Woman Band.
Having joined with the cream of the US roots scene for two acclaimed albums, 2017’s Let The Demons Out and 2019’s Mississppi Blend, Volt’s rebirth as a solo performer wasn’t a decision made lightly. But if an apprenticeship busking in her native Brussels taught Volt anything, it’s that she already had everything she needed to make magic. “In March, I started playing on a real drum set,” she recalls. “Playing a kick, snare and hi-hat plus a tambourine with my two feet, while playing slide/guitar and singing at the same time.”
After road-testing the new format at shows across Mississippi, Volt realised that one was the magic number. In August, she committed to the project, embarking on a month-long Amtrak train trip that became an intensive writing session, the shifting landscapes beyond the window inspiring her pen to scratch as never before.

An intense fusion of Italian, melodic audacity and a British taste for outrageous and elegant power, alternative rock outfit Mäle is the vision of Alessandro Medri, Italian songwriter, singer and guitarist, and Mike Krompass, British/Canadian multi-platinum producer and multi-instrumentalist.
'Lost in Paradise' will be the first single to be released. Extract from the forthcoming full-length album, untitled yet, that has been written in Italy at Accademia 49 and recorded and mixed at BASE Culture Studios in Sheffield, UK.
Mäle was born in 2019, from the ashes of the twenty-year metalcore scene of the north-east coast of Italy, Figure Of Six and Creep, with Alessandro Medri (ex-Figure Of Six Vocalist), Matteo Troiano (ex-Figure Of Six Guitar) and Jonathan Montalti (ex-Creep Bass) .
After a year of pre-production, Alessandro met Mike Krompass (Nelly Furtado, Smash Mouth, Steven Tyler, Billy Sheehan, Dead Romantic ...), who recently moved to the UK from the United States.
From this encounter arises an artistic collaboration and a new friendship, which leads to the production of 10 songs.
Simultaneously with the recording and mixing sessions at the Base Culture's Studio in Sheffield (owned by Mike Krompass), in Italy Alessandro and Jonathan were building the line-up that would bring the project live.
Two videos were recorded and two photo shoots were made with Fabrizio Cilindro (Ex Creep), who assumed the Interim on drums but, had to part away from the band.
Auditions were opened to complete the clan and after having tried dozens of musicians, in the summer of 2022 Andrea Macrelli on guitar (Several Union) and Mattia Vagnoni on drums (When You Collapse) joined the band to complete the line-up.
