The Night Beat: This Time Around

Extra, Extra, stop the presses. The Night Beat is entering the world of giveaways. Our inaugural giveaway is a copy of Heather Williams This Time Around. I gave the album a five Emerald Rating. It is a perfect album, though sadly, it did not win an Elpy. I have one copy to give away, and I am going make it a Rafflecopter giveaway . I would put Heather on My Chicks Who Rock List. No delicate vocals here, this girl can belt out a song. Right now I am only going to put out one additional restriction and that will be U.S. and Canada only. This is the first one, and I won't break the bank on shipping. The Sweepstakes will begin on Midnight Wednesday. That Means Tues/Wed EST. It will continue until the 4th of August. I don't know, I just thought it was fitting to time it to end with Soulfest.

Thanks for staying with The Night Beat and let the giveaways begin. Until next time, I am Awaiting Your Reply (and your entries).

2012 Wishlist: Rock

THE FUTURE IS NOW! More specifically Fireflight Now, as in their new album. The album won't drop until March 6, but you know that good things come "For those who wait". The album artwork is out now, so here it is. It will have to hold you until March. That's one off the list.


Satellites and Sirens will be out promoting Frequency in 2012. It only came out a few months ago, so I think they are off the list for this year. Even techno bands need a little time away from the studio.

Skillet is rumored to be planning an album that will be released "late 2012" that is all that is known for now. Will keep you updated.

Heather Williams This Time Around just came out last September, so she should be out touring in support of her 5 Emerald rated album in 2012.

Of course, even though nothing is scheduled so far, I am still wishing to see something from the lovely ladies of Barlowgirl. You can't rest on a best of album for too long.

That finishes the wishlist. The releases begin. I am Awaiting Your Reply.
