FKA Twigs dishes a plate of hot vulnerability and strength to close out FYF

Photo by Jazz Shademan Arriving at the stage for FKA Twigs you could see that everyone was tired and maybe a little weary from the jam packed two-day fest. Most were sitting waiting for the last act of FYF to take the stage. When the lights drew down completely dark and a hushed airy voice […]

Shygirl Drops Naughty Single “Coochie (a bedtime story),” Upcoming Date at Primavera Sound LA

Experimental pop artist Shygirl drops her latest single, “Coochie (a bedtime story),” a not so subtly naughty tune all about the power of the feminine mystique; i.e. power of the pussy. Playful and explicit, the new single has a bold and very catchy hook, though probably not safe to sing at work. In addition to […]
