Song of the Week | Floco Torres – Hold Up

The new WMFO X Music Savage Show “Song of the Week” spotlight shines brightly on the incredible new single from Floco Torres titled, “Hold Up,” which will be on his new full-length album due out later this year. This is the second time we have focused on the Akron-based musician for good reason. Torres is a hard-working, hard-hitting musician who recently relocated to Akron, Ohio where he works for the local arts and culture magazine, The Devil Strip, while continuing to cement his place in hip-hop history. The single, “Hold Up,” is a lyrically masterful ass-whoopin’ on the two-faced people in the industry who offer…

The Boston-based musician is putting the finishing touches on her upcoming debut, full-length album, Blue Part, slated to be released this summer 2018. You may be saying to yourself “Hey I recognize her” and if you spend your time frequenting area venues like Atwood’s Tavern, Lizard Lounge, & Thunder Road (and you should be!) you most certainly do. On any given night she is either fronting Boston’s 8-piece soul/funk band The New…

Song of the Week | False Heads – Retina

Photo Credit: Luke Nugent Photography ? The WFMO X Music Savage Show “Song of the Week” spotlight is focused sharply on the killer new single, “Retina,” from East London trio False Heads. We have been following the British band for just about two years now and it has been fantastic to see the talented trio find their punk rock footing in a punk rock scene in serious need of a punk rock attitude adjustment. Following the release of their first single, “Steal and Cheat,” for Gary Powell’s label 25 Hour Convenience Store, the guys have seen their European fan base grow by leaps and bounds. “Retina”…

Song of the Week | Buffalo Tom – Roman Cars

The latest WFMO X Music Savage Show “Song of the Week” spotlight is on the incredible new single, “Roman Cars,” from Boston’s very own Buffalo Tom. This is the second time we have focused on the legendary local trio, and for good reason. Their ninth studio album, Quiet and Peace, is out Friday, March 2nd via Scrawny/Schoolkids Records, and as I have listened to it front and back quiet a few times now, I can honestly say that their first album in seven years was well worth the wait! Buffalo Tom are Bill Janovtiz (vocals/guitar), Chris Colbourn (vocals/bass), and Tom Maginnis (drums)…

The quartet formed in 2015 and have just a handful of terrific singles to their name. Despite their short period of existence they already have the music world taking notice.
