A rocking band traveling the West-coast & Mid-west USA.
He’s my Brother She’s my Sister, aka HMBSMS, is a band with flare, touch, tap, and style. A unique approach to music and crowd participation. In fact they invited some of the wildest and bravest crowd members to sing with them on stage. HMBSMS has a very heavy tour schedule, and is constantly on the move. After seeing He is my brother she is my sister in Eugene, Oregon, I had to talk with them. The band members were kind enough to agree to a phone interview (click here). The night was clear, the flow of beer, and the music was here at Sam Bond’s Garage. The sibling vocal harmonies were noticeable in the incredibly cohesive sound despite the Rob having the flue, and sweating profusely during the entire show. The percussionist Lauren, standing on a kick drum tap-dancing, danced with enthusiasm and a purpose. Rachel’s beautiful vocals and occasional tambourine shakes kept the flare alive. With walking bass lines and sliding lap-steal guitar, the sound was keyed in. HMBSMS opened up the microphone up to other members of the audience, who gratefully grabbed the mic to scat and howl the night away. With a taste of Eugene, this band wanted a little more, entertaining an encore to the fans delight.

With an extremely heavy tour schedule, the band will likely be within a couple hours away (if you are in the USA) from your home town. Check out their tour schedule here:

Commenting on her sound, Cheyenne remarks, “It gives people somewhere to escape to when things aren’t going so well, it not only tells my stories, but the stories of so many others, and in that I find my music very unique…I want people to be uplifted, and I will continue to create music that does so.” Keep your radios turned on for this rising star on the LA scene.
The True Set
The True Set from Los Angeles
Freio Music is excited to present ‘The True Set’, inspired by Cold War Kids, Led Zeppelin, and Rumspringa. Their first instruments were played as kids in the kitchen, pots and pans! Creative from the beginning of their career, they use, adapt and thrive with the instruments available. This crew is ingenuitive and surprisingly good. Have a listen! In three words they describe their sound as, “Pure Genuine Rock” – Will age 24. This young band has the potential to grow and change their sound as they get their hands on new instruments and tools. Fly High, a must listen to song if you like overdrive vocals and indie rock.

Human Nature – Tribal Spectrum
Tribal Spectrum
*Sam (left) Greg (right) {See Picture Above}
“How do you describe your sound? It is the hardest thing in the world to do.” – Sam “I don’t want to follow other’s sound, and create that kind of music” Sam said [referring to the main-stage aka house music] “as long as we do something other people are not”. They are staying true to their name and embracing cultures left and right. Greg shapes the sound with his tight rhythm on the drums and his ‘bangers’ for the nightlife sub-loving ladies from the bay area while Sam stretches their comfort zone into foreign lands such as India, Ireland, and Nepal to name a few.
Listen to how Greg rips up the acoustic drums during their live digital set. The last 5 minutes exemplify Greg’s superb drumming. Tribal Spectrum (live 6.12.2012) *Download –> Right Click & Save As

Wanderlust Wednesday…Worth the Drive
As the summer solstice draws nearer, so does the opportunity to catch live music in the heart of Mother Nature herself. So get out your face paint, fill your backpack with a bag of wine, and prep your bare feet for dancin’. Ladies and gents, I present to you the top three outdoor venues worth the drive this summer.
#1: The Gorge, WA
This absolutely breath-taking venue will blow your mind! Inhabiting what seems to be the middle of nowhere Washington, it is as if the music gods bestowed upon man a place to completely immerse oneself in the experience.
Festival Advice: Once you enter the venue from the campground, you can’t re-enter. Pack a backpack with at least three beers and a warm thing (hoodie, sweater, more beers…)
Show not to be missed: Sasquatch Music Festival
#2: Red Rocks, CO
If you haven’t been to Red Rocks, get yourself there! This acoustical dream of a venue will leave a beautiful energy in you for days. Hike the hill for a free show or buy a ticket and let the sound fill you, body and soul.
Concert Advice: If it looks like rain, don’t let it get you down. Lightning intermingling with the city lights of Denver is unreal! If you don’t want to spend eight bucks for a beer, chug them in the parking lot. Get a designated driver, no camping here…
Shows not to be missed: String Cheese Incident, Blues Traveler on the 4th of July, STS9, Umphrey’s McGee and Railroad Earth, Neil Young, Jack White
#3: The Greek Theatre, CA
Located right on the UC Berkley campus, this venue is one of those places that is uniquely special to both the artist and the audience. Being in the heart of a city and still being able to provide a bumpin’ outdoor venue is what makes this theater wonderful.
Concert Advice: Find the best seat possible for dancing.
Shows not to be missed: String Cheese Incident, My Morning Jacket
Mr. RaW
This artist we’re about to profile is a motivated individual, who’s making the necessary moves to prosper in the world of Hip-Hop. A few years ago he packed up shop and moved to LA, where he could further his ambitions as a lyricist and get noticed. Let’s get to know this guy.
Stage Name: Mr.RaW
Birth Name: Taylor Batts
Age: 21
Hometown: Park Hill, Colorado
First instrument: Piano at age 8
Current instrument: Vocals
Genre/style: Hip-Hop
What artists have influenced your sound?
“Artists like 2pac, Rakim, Eminem, Nas, NWA, and Kanye had an impact on me. I don’t really sound like any of these artist but they motivate me to create an original sound just like they did.”
If you could describe your musical style in 3 words, what would you say?
“I wouldn’t need three words, just three letters R a W, it’s all in the name. My goal as an artist is to get better every single day, I’m privileged enough to breath. So I continue to push myself harder and harder to reach my full potential of becoming the RaWest to ever do it. To some it may seem like I am pretty far off, but if they can see where I started and where I am now they would know that goal isn’t to far fetched. My project Rebuild and Recover should help people get more familiar with my passion for music. I do what I do for my city, and I live by the motto that “Rest Is For Billionaires” (Rif.B).”

WANDERLUST WEDNESDAY- Introducing Fox and Woman…
One of the favorite local venues of Eugene, Oregon, Sam Bond’s Garage, was already set in my mind as the place to get down last Friday night. The now Portland-based Water Tower Bucket Boys made their way down I-5 to shake up the town, but there was a little something extra thrown into the bluegrass party. The opener of the night, Fox and Woman, filled the room with a smooth and sultry sound of impeccably blended harmonies. The provoking band name came from a song written by vocalist, Jess Silva, while washing dishes in a San Francisco cafe. She noted the back room provided the, “prime time to space out and write music.” Jess and violinist, keyboardist, vocalist, and co-worker, Emily Haltom, found a creative energy together playing outside bars on the streets of San Fran. After some pretty wild band names and varying members, Emily and Jess added Leo Suarez(cello), Will Boast(drums), and Andrew Paul Nelson (mandolin, guitar ukulele) finally solidifying the band that is known as Fox and Woman. Their music harbors a full bodied melding of rich instrumentation and vocals that soothes the listener into the depths of something that is beautifully captivating. Emily describes their sound as, “electro-alternative folk”. With the use of peddles for the electric guitar atop acoustic rhythms, their sound is only beginning to transcend genres beyond their indie-folk roots. From playing outside of bars in San Francisco to inside them in Eugene and throughout the Northwest, this band is definitely going great places. Their individual raw talent fuses gracefully together as one unbelievable band. Their live show is not to be missed.

C-Villain
C-Villain: Rap Superstar in Eugene
C-Villain is a talented cat who currently lives in Eugene, Oregon. Originally from Oakland, California, his new album dropped under a month ago called “Stereos, Dominoes, & a few Flows”. The album is available for free download. C-Villain spits the truth of the college lifestyle over some heavy and well thought out beats. FreioMusic has had the opportunity to see & record C-Villain live at the Granary with TribalSpectrum. After hearing the difference between studio tracks and the live set, we have come to realize that C-Villain has freestyle skills far beyond what the studio tracks illustrate. That said, the album demonstrates an attention to detail and the professionalism of a star. With female vocals on the chorus, featured artists on the verse, C-Villain orchistrates his rap in a way rainy Eugene has never seen. This music video is well done and filmed around the local community. Ducks, you aught to recognize Hilly’s Market…
[youtube http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qIqCaOjzwQQ%5D
Influenced by the DR. and Mac Dre, C-villain is focused and aiming for the top. Certainly a rising artist, and arguably the best rapper to come out of Eugene in 10 years.
