Ten Word Reviews

Willi Carlisle - Tulsa’s Last Magician
A storyteller’s storyteller with an uncanny knack for generating hope.

Vinnie Paolizzi - Hummin’
A returnee to the Cheat Sheet. Breezy folk rock banger.

Jadea Kelly - Solo
Convincing, delicate vocal performance on a well-arranged slow burn.

Kalyn Fay - Tulsa
Full band pocket so deep you can’t see the bottom.

Chloë Doucet - Driving
A crisp singer-songwriter tune with some weezer-esque grit.

Jerome Porter - Almost Easy
This one breathes a lot, which I dig. Great harmonies.

Hank May - Modern Medicine
Precise and gritty vocal over a lush folk-rock band.

Caelo - Tongue Tied
So stoked to have found this one. There’s a glockenspiel!
