July 2, 2025 by Joe Marchese | 6 Comments

Jac Holzman was still in college when he and pal Paul Rickolt each chipped in three hundred bucks to start a record company.

Elektra soon shifted its emphasis to folk music, growing its discography with recordings by Theodore Bikel, Josh White, Judy Collins, Oscar Brand, and Tom Paxton before branching…

Ben Folds, It’s the Small Things, Charlie Brown (Apple TV+ Original Soundtrack) (Peanuts Productions) (iTunes) Ben Folds has been sort of quiet lately.

April 20, 2017 by Mike Duquette | No Comments

Depending on how old you are, the mere mention of Third Eye Blind is enough to elicit wistful memories of their first three, relatively immortal hits, “Semi-Charmed Life,” “How It’s Going to Be” and “Jumper”–all Top 10s on the Billboard Hot 100.
