Known for its distinctive "DanceThink Music," MY DEAR DISCO?s debut has been met with critical acclaim since its 2007release. With music featuring electrified bagpipes, and a line-up including a two-time International Acoustic Music Award winning composer, a three-time world champion instrumentalist, a 1st place Michigan Idol-winning singer, and two 1st place M-Block Records ?New Music on the Block?-winning recording artists, My Dear Disco's live show has been hailed as "...one of the must see-acts in Detroit and Ann Arbor." Detroit?s THE HARD LESSONS make rock music. Not the kind of rock music that plays during beer commercials or in the background at party scenes in bad movies, but the kind of rock that inspires people to stand up, stomp the floor, and allow themselves to be transported somewhere else. In a music world forever altered by digital downloading, The Hard Lessons are making record collecting fun again. A reviewer once wrote: If you breathe, you will like The Hard Lessons. That?s as accurate as it is hard to believe. There are no tricks or gimmicks. This is rock and roll. Lean, taut, and sharp to the touch, when hurled through the air, a javelin has the ability to hit its target with intense accuracy. Perhaps, then, it?s no coincidence that dynamic indie-rock trio JAVELINS share the same qualities as the spear-like weapon with which they share their name. With solid rock songs that are as pointed as they are streamlined, Javelins transcend their bevy of eclectic influences, tossing them to the sky with sheer abandon. The band has played with a laundry list of white-hot touring acts and have hit the road themselves, delivering their tight, sparkling jams to anyone who will listen. And like those javelins flying though the sky, the music is bound to get stuck in your head, down deep, past the skull, right through to the brain.
