Buzz Track: Lights
I’m really enjoying folk/acoustic/pop artist Katy Glorioso, I find her voice and melodies memorable. Her story goes: After recording an EP in 2011, it fell into the hands of Nashville singer/songwriter Jeremy Casella. Katy recorded with Casella in Nashville and released her full length album Fine and Foolish. Katy has gained radio play on Central Pennsylvania’s The River 97.3 as well as performing in some of the top venues in the area. She headlined CI Records’ Endless Summer Fest 3. and has opened for Jon Walker (formerly of Panic! at the Disco) and will be opening for Jennifer Knapp on Oct. 30.

Buzz Track: Your Man
THE VIM DICTA is an indie act comprising of just two guitar/vocalists and a drummer. Their influences range from The Mars Volta, The Doors, and Parliament Funkadelic. The track ‘Your Man’ was featured on the Season 5 Premier of SONS OF ANARCHY. Interestingly, the band recorded the tracks live in the studio with no overdubs and I hear the live show is intense.
