Eleni Mandell isn’t your average, run-of-the-mill female singer/songwriter. Turning her back on computer-aided recording and “perfection,” she opts for a warts-and-all sound that’s as influenced by the music of the thirties and forties as it is by modern day rock n’ roll. Phil Bailey learned more from this fiercely independent artist.

Michelle Harris tells the sordid tale of how the Rolling Stones tried to ruin her career.

Why does the Unband rock so hard? That’s what Gail Worley asked singer/guitarist Matt Pierce of the one band that parties so hard that they had to move to New York after being banned from every club in Boston. It’s all about sex, drugs, and rock and roll!
