During the call, we discussed her influences, her love for guitar, her upcoming album Believe and what it’s like to be discovered by Michael Jackson on MySpace. The first time I heard her play, I was absolutely speechless. If you have never heard of Orianthi, prepare to be amazed.

Just check out lead single ‘Juggernauts’, a song that …read more

Some of you may be saying Fifi La-who? Fifi Larue, The Gothic Killer Clown Of Rock N’ Roll. The self proclaimed ‘Heavy Metal Messiah’. He may not have a star on the Hollywood walk of fame and he may not be selling records by the millions on a major label or touring the world over, but Fifi Larue has made a name for himself.
