This guy is eating a slice of pizza from every pizzeria in New York City and writing about it on his website and quarterly zine! I am sure many have thought about something similar and frowned upon this idea for health reasons, yet I find him very intriguing, daring, creative, crazy, and fun!

From the depths of Madrid, Spain, with a fearful sound, dreamy voice, and an odd story to tell, Holly & The Bible has been the woman I have chased in our nightly, surreal dreams with flagpoles and knickerbockers. Not only has Holly & The Bible proclaimed herself as Jesus’ lover, but she is GrungeCake’s Sweet Sweet Valentine. All year round.
Phony Bastards, recording artists Jade Ross and Noni Limar are quite the characters. Though, contrary, Ross and Limar make a beautiful blend. Their voices are dreamy, and soothing. Above all else, I really enjoyed their conversation. I hope you will, too. Press play for the experience.
Gina Rene found her earliest musical influences inside two generations of her very own multi-cultural family. Her grandfather Leon Rene wrote the Rock and Roll classic, “Rockin’ Robin” as well as Louis Armstrong’s theme song “Sleepy Time Down South.” Her father wrote “Wham Bam” which featured blues legend Johnny “Guitar” Watson and drummer Earl Palmer. Going well beyond her lineage, everything from the sounds of 1940’s torch style singing, coupled with the soul of Chaka Khan and Prince took hold of her creative soul. However, the raw creativity of 80’s Hip-Hop became the final ingredient of the harmonic recipe that gave birth to Gina Rene’s incomparable musical style. A native of the bohemian city of Santa Cruz, California, Gina Rene grew up performing everywhere she could including the Philippines, Malaysia, Mexico City, New York, Chicago, Toronto, Vancouver, Detroit, Washington D.C., Los Angeles, and more.
