March 24, 2011

I recently started going to the gym again (just a few more weeks til graduation!). I found myself skipping around songs because I couldn’t find anything I was in the mood for. I realized how much this interrupted the flow of my workout and thought “hmmm, if I had just 1 long song [...]

Music Business 101: Sue Lucarelli, Epitaph Records

Well folks, I’m starting something exciting for kathyknows.com.

Hey Monday, Beneath It All

August 26, 2010

Hey Monday - Beneath It All

Hey Monday released their new EP, “Beneath It All” on August 17th. I have been reading a lot on them lately and a lot of controversy and drama has appeared in discussions about the future of the band. I’d like to state my opinion on some of the issues surrounding them.

Also, I’m giving away a couple copies of the record. Just leave a comment on your thoughts about anything in this post and I’ll pick two winners to win a copy of the LP on Monday.
