Greetings from Laurel Canyon!
Let’s face it. This fall has been a tough go of late for both The Idelic Hour and The Vinyl District dudes. We lost loved ones, had to space out, and missed a few beats.
For the growing number of new vinyl fans, the lines have cued around the block. All said and done, we have no choice but to carry and rock on. And so did many a fellow musician who choose to release digital single after single.
For me 2021 was a year of searching to survive in every area of life. Finding new meaningful music was at times like looking for water in the hills of Simi Valley. In the end I found 50 new silver pieces to share. 25 today and 25 Friday next. Hope you enjoy.
Rock on!
