NEW YORK– Artists have phases in their careers. The not so great ones have downhill phases, while great ones have phases pointing them towards perfection.

In Alfa's  sophomore album entitled Second Skin, we see her in a new phase, which reveals her in her most brilliant form yet– a testament to the fact that  she is currently the best female singer-songwriter in the New York and New Jersey Asian-American music scene.

Second Skin is such a well-written record that it is a challenge to anyone who listens to it to even describe it as an OK record because It is not just an OK record, it is a magnificent record. It is Alfa at the top of her game.

 NEW YORK– The Liberty Bell will toll, the Declaration of Independence will be read, and the nation will celebrate its birthday. July 4 is Independence Day, and while the whole country pays tribute to the Stars and Stripes, several Asian-American artists will likewise show the virtue of independence not only of the country but of their music through a special night at one of the most prestigious music venues in Manhattan, Crash Mansion.

Virginia-based indie group to tour New York in July

NEW YORK – The philosophy that everything in life is temporary demands a certain code of conduct– a behavior that can only be summed in one word, Carpe Diem– seize the day.

If life is as fleeting the shape a cloud forms every second, it follows that every moment must be chewed right down to the bone.

Fittingly, a band that plays music with such vibrant urgency calls themselves Temporary Basement.
