Dance/Review Kiesza - Heaven Ain't Calling ft. Sugar Jesus

Kiesza is weird, and she sings a bit. She is a closet scientist when in hermit mode, and she makes surrealist art to process the constant bullshit that life throws her way. She is equally as social as she is anti-social, and she has a dog that acts more like a jaded muppet than a dog. Her life is very feather-like, and she embraces that. Music is literally the only way she knows how to communicate effectively and express the inner workings of her soul.

Rock/Review Stuart Lawrence - Paradise

Stuart Lawrence is originally from Oxfordshire, now on the south coast of England, not far from the beautiful and historic city of Portsmouth. He sometimes jokingly says that he was educated at Oxford, which is true but not quite what the expression is meant to convey. Music has always been important to him, not formally but as a means of escape with its cathartic qualities, and he's mostly self-taught. Actually, anything artistic makes him comfortable. Drawing, painting, and making.
