Halshack Indie Rockcast

Bet you are wondering what the Wonder Shack is? Its a new series where we will focus on potential "mega hit tracks"!! Lots of these tracks have only had one play or no plays or haven't been played in a LONG time in rotation. There's many different reasons why these tracks have not had that much focus. It makes you wonder what we're doing over here at the Shack...lol

The world is full of one hit wonders and wonders o...

Its August and Daft Punk (w/ Jawny Badluck) are bringing the fire! Its just hot and there's no mistaking that the heat you can find on the Halshack is just as hot as the heat outside! We're making some new nostalgic memories in the summer heat here in the Rap Shack! This show is half submissions and half regular artists on my show. It worked out to have room to focus on some new releases and past hits from the show! Check ...

Lets get back to basics folks!! The 80s/90s were the king of the road for music! Diversity in music is what makes the culture of the world spin out on the airwaves. Back in the day we opened our ears and eyes and our borders to music from all over the world from the British Invasion to South African vibes to Gregorian chants even...lol 

Its a crime that music has flown in the direction it has. Newcomers (DARKBIRD) f...

Brand new Reverbnation Campaign #7 (Rap Shack 13) almost 1000 submissions so far and these roughly 20 new artists were chosen to be a part of my special rap/hip-hop series that's been earning many accolades throughout the industry.

Happy Mothers day to all our loving Moms! Its been 4 years since the last Mother's Day show.  That one dealt with all my female artists at the time to celebrate women and their achievements. This time around I'm building on the idea of family, moms, dads, kids, babies and more titles dealing with the subject of moms lives even if you are NOT a MOM yourself you will still enjoy this show. 

Thanks to all our Moms for ...

"Themes are us" here at the Halshack! ..lol with special guest (CAVO) 

This show came about because of a submission from Alternative Twist Radio! They submitted to me a new competent talented artist by the name of Will Buck!

Please welcome Belinda Carlisle to the Halshack!!  Well last year we didn't get to put much focus on this special event! Due to the Wampus Cat Music Festival with Lit, Everclear and Sister Hazel this song was completely over shadowed! I talked about the song and played it in the Wampus Cat Special but it was a wash for their representation! 

Well I'd like to give this song justice and put the proper focus on the ste...
