Note: The video no longer exists and there is no replacement for it. Most of the band’s other links are also dead. You may recall The Aquaducks fun fusion of jazz, rock, and r&b, from about a year ago when we highlighted the single, Fuel The Funk. Now the band has released (November 2013) a seven-song self-titled LP, and you can find Fuel The Funk along with This Far (shown here). The LP clocks in at 36 minutes and change. This is party music, and that is something that The Aquaducks hang their hats on-And it’s fun! You can find more information on…

She is relatively new to the music scene, but this resident of London, England, has some chops and could very easily break loose. She should at least. There is little info on Layla, but you can navigate to her web site (tumblr blog) and hit her other links from there. Then slip…
Read MoreOne part performance art, one part insanity and two parts fun. Welcome to Louis Barabbas & The Bedlam Six! Louis Barabbas and company are an in your face alternative troupe of gypsy-esque mutants, that play a combination of gypsy tinged rock and alternative laced folk.
