Dan Harris - Hotdogs and Chardonnay Folk Colorado, U.S. Overall Impression: Singer-Songwriter Dan Harris has warmed up the airwaves with the release of Hotdogs and Chardonnay. This charming new Folk tune relishes in the nostalgia of good times spent with someone you really care for. It tells the wonderful story of a couple skipping town on a Summer night, having car troubles, and then enjoying a dinner cooked on the radiator. Courtesy of its folksy instrumentation, the tune has an old timey sound and feel that casts a relaxing energy. The harmonica and fiddle are supported by the acoustic guitar and bass, and each takes a turn dancing in the moonlight. The lyrics provide a surplus of details, and the listener will benefit from really tuning their ears in to the phrasing. Overall, this song has an extremely charming mood, sweet lyricism, and an acoustic sound that fans of Folk, Singer-Songwriters, and Americana will want to listen to again and again.
Strongest Point(s): While the lyrics are the driving force behind Hotdogs and Chardonnay, the musical underpinning leaves a very strong impression. The harmonica and fiddle add such a wonderful color that can change the listener's mood. Even nothing about the song is actually simple, these instruments (along with the guitar and bass) provide a feeling of simpler times.
Target Audience Appeal: Fans of Singer Songwriters, Folk, and Americana will enjoy Hotdogs and Chardonnay by Dan Harris.
Artist target suggestions: John Prine, Bob Dylan, Gordon Lightfoot, Harry Chapin, Joni Mitchell, James Taylor, Joan Baez, Leonard Cohen, Jim Croce, Cat Stevens, John Denver, Willie Nelson, Arlo Guthrie, Van Morrison, Judy Collins

The Silvers - The Final Word Pop, Rock United States Overall Impression: Prolific veteran indie rockers The Silvers explore resolute themes of persistence and representation, on their release of "The Final Word". Coarse and jagged riffs play overtop a melodic bass line and a stalwart backbeat on this mid-tempo track, colored by tight backing harmonies and topped off by compelling lead guitar work in support of meticulously layered male vocals. Steely lyrics encourage listeners to speak up for themselves and defend their interests, no matter how desperate the situation and circumstances may seem at the time, ideals that are reflected in the unyielding nature of the music and should resonate strongly with rock audiences. Its supremely cool and confident sound combined with a message of civil responsibility alongside hints of rebellion make "The Final Word" by The Silvers an easy recommendation for indie and alternative music fans of all ages and backgrounds.
Strongest Point(s): Outstanding production, great sounding mix. Nice thick and saturated sound, plays well at high volumes. Great intro riff, sets the tone for the entire song. Fantastic song structure; nice harmonic relationship between verse and chorus, and the bridge provides an interesting melodic diversion. Guitar solo sounds awesome, nice tone and technique. Incredible vocal performance and production. The top line is front and center, with excellent command and clarity, while the backing harmonies add a ton of character and color. Lyrics are superb; empowering on both an individual and a social level, encouraging listeners to exercise their rights and voice their concerns in the face of oppression and fascism. These concepts are more important than ever right now, and these lyrics should resonate with the tone and spirit of our times. All in all, this is a solid indie rock track that carries with it an incredibly strong and vital message that needs to be spread en masse. Awesome work on this one!
Target Audience Appeal: Fans of Pop/Rock, Alternative Pop/Rock, Alternative/Indie Rock
Artist target suggestions: Spoon, The Walkmen, The Hold Steady, Dirty Projectors, Pavement, Guided by Voices, My Morning Jacket, Cold War Kids, The War on Drugs, Wilco, Built to Spill, Ted Leo and the Pharmacists, Red Jacket Mine
