Martinsburg native, Christian Lopez is having a great week. He released his track I’m Not Alone last week followed by his debut at The Grand Ole Opry which was covered by ABC’ s “Good Morning America.” The new single puts us in the shoes of someone looking for affirmation that they are ok and loved. The blues tinged track will be right at home with fans of Amos Lee.
Huntingtons own Brian McSweeney has released a new single, which was previously available as a live video, A Song to Death. The haunting track is a conversation between McSweeney and death. The song deserves to be listened to in a dark room with nothing else around, so it can be truly appreciated. Listen below.
Hip Hop artist Lamar Riddick released his new track Holy Time. The religious message of the track might cause some to not give it a shot, but Riddick’s talent is bigger than the world of CHH and this track just proves that. If you’ve got a good speaker set up, this is one to check out on full volume.
