THE 5 AM - ON MY MIND

THE 5 AM - ON MY MIND

Introducing The 5 AM: a powerhouse band fueled by a fusion of rock, funk, blues, and soul. With their electrifying performances and infectious energy, this quartet is set to ignite stages and captivate audiences wherever they go.

At the core of The 5 AM's sonic landscape are the talents of Thomas Nicolai, laying down the groove on bass and backing vocals, Christophe Eggen, delivering soulful lead vocals while wielding the rhythm guitar, Erik Laureyssen shredding it up on lead guitar and lending his voice to backing vocals, and Alexis Armoa driving the beat behind the drum kit.

Sometimes reminding me of bands like The Black Crowes and Bad Company, The 5 AM infuses their own unique style and flair into every note they play. Their music, a tapestry woven with threads of raw emotion, infectious rhythms, and soul-stirring melodies, resonates deeply with audiences and leaves them craving for more.

The band's prowess extends beyond the confines of the stage, with their tracks finding their way onto the silver screen and television screens alike. Two of their songs were featured in a Hollywood movie starring the likes of Amber Rose and Shelly Regner, while another track found its place in the soundtrack of the Amazon Prime series New Dogs, Old Tricks.

But perhaps where The 5 AM truly shines is in their live performances. Infusing every chord with passion and every beat with intensity, they create an atmosphere that is nothing short of electric. Their joy on stage is palpable, infecting every member of the audience and turning each show into an unforgettable experience.

So mark your calendars and clear your schedules because The 5 AM is set to take the stage at The Black Flamingo on Saturday, April 6th. Don't miss your chance to witness this extraordinary band in action.

The track I chose, On My mind, isn't only a great video. With its infectious melodies, soul-stirring lyrics, and electrifying energy, it's a track that demands to be heard and experienced again and again.

OFF THE GRID FESTIVAL

OFF THE GRID FESTIVAL Normally I write about a song that caught my attention or that has a special meaning to me but this article is a tribute to this small festival that I had the honor in attending in Croatia's capital Zagreb at the Vintage Industrial Bar This story actually starts in June 2022. While I was watching the amazing band L.H.D.  at the Trash'n'Burn festival in Croatia, I met some great people who were also in a band called Melewai . We started talking, drank some beers and after the festival we stayed in touch. From time to time they released a new song on Bandcamp and I just loved their songs. I promised them that whenever they would play their first live gig I would do my best to be there. And then the news came that Melewai was going to play at the Off The Grid festival, organised by L.H.D. and together with Sumski  and Psycho Mutants . So, keeping my promise, I was there on the 27th of December. Melewai opened the festival and a lot of people did not reall

 JERRY MOTOR - MARY Jerry Motor's latest single, "Mary," plunges listeners into a captivating musical experience that resonates with haunting melodies and pulsating rhythms. With a vocal delivery reminiscent of a crossover between Skunk Anansie and Kate Bush, the band delivers a performance that is both powerful and evocative. From the moment the drums kick in, the song establishes a relentless momentum that drives the narrative forward. The pounding and thriving percussion sets the pace, adding layers of intensity to the composition. Each beat feels purposeful, contributing to the overall dynamic of the track.

The haunting quality of the guitar adds depth to the music, creating an atmosphere that is both eerie and enchanting. However, it's the bass that truly sh

ALPS. - WANT YOU NOW

 ALPS. - WANT YOU NOW Life is full of surprises.  Sometimes it gives you lemons, sometimes it gives you Alps..  At The Black Flamingo we really are blessed with the people that come visit us.  No matter how big or small the audience, they give the artists all the attention they deserve.  One day Jesse came over to watch a show here.  I didn't knew who he was but someone pointed out to me that he also was a musician and a songwriter.  After a little research (hurrah for socials) I came across two of his projects, Alps. and CYNN' (more about CYNN' later, I'm sure). For me Alps. is more than songs.  When I close my eyes while listening to them I can almost feel the scenery passing by.  Want You Now in particular makes me feel like being somewhere on a mountain pasture (Alps.?) and it's my perfect waking up song after a stressy week or a heavy night. I already had the privilege to see them perfom live and what a show that was ! Go check them out if you get the chance.
