Back in the mid-aughts, I had a music blog for a year. Finding new (i.e. "fresh") music that I liked turned out to be a lot of work, so I stopped. Every so often I get the itch to write about music. But where? So I created this as a place to write as well as post my old blog entries.

Sophia Ramos - Her Majesty
Singer Sophia Ramos
first came to my attention when Jason Newsted's
Chophouse Records
emailed people on their mailing list asking for feedback
on a couple of songs they posted featuring Ms. Ramos.
This was back in March and at the time I replied,
"Regarding Sophia Ramos, I like the Godswallop track better than the TARRAT
track. The reason is that towards the end of the Godswallop track she
lets loose. She's a nice enough singer but she does have some pipes
and when
she goes off like that, her voice rises above just nice and really
shines."
That's my story and I'm sticking to it for her album
Her Majesty, as well.
She is such a powerful singer.
Still, my favorite track is
Deep In My Bones,
which is more of a power balled than a full-on rocker.
For those, give a listen to
Torn Down
or Esperanza.
I have a hunch that we're getting just a glimpse of her potential.
Keep an eye out for her.
