Kacey Musgraves Adds the Warmth to the Holiday Season with New Music
Kacey Musgraves is a heart-stealing, wheeling, dealing, guitar picking, song-writing, creative talent with a new holiday record titled A Very Kacey Christmas. When I first was introduced to Musgraves' music at the 2015 Bonnaroo Music Festival, I was instantly hooked with her attention to detail within music performance. She is a natural at performing live music. Her captivating presence can be felt on stage, as well as during her interviews. Listen in to her first experience on Willie Nelson's tour bus: https://youtu.be/aWMiFbK5Mzc After touring with Willie, Musgraves later would invite him to guest spot on her latest album A Very Kacey Christmas.

Deadmau5 Releases W:/2016ALBUM/ and Tours Heavy in 2017
Deadmau5, a renown music producer from Toronto, has just dropped his latest album W:/2016ALBUM/, along with North American tour dates for 2017.

This trend is

Vallis Alps, an Australia electronic duo, has announce dates for their Fable Tour to help support their upcoming album EP Fable. Parissa Tosif and David Ansari create the soundscapes for Vallis Alps. Their latest track 'Fading' relaxing and chill music to wind down at the end of the day. The electronic music fade of using a female vocalist mix with an electronic beat is getting old fast. This band, and several acts like The Chainsmokers, Flume and ZEDD have had radio success, but it wasn't because the music had depth, it has more to do with the easy to consume nature of music.
