#WrockWednesday Takes a Trip with a Time Turner
No, today’s band has nothing to do with actual Time Turners. However, this band has been officially done for a little over a year and a half. So it’s like we’re travelling back in time to re-visit them in all their glory. Ginny and the Heartbreakers was one of the first bands I ever listened…

Question Tuesday
When and/or how did you learn the extent of Wizard Rock and its potential impact on the world? I wish I could say that the first time I heard a Harry and the Potters song, I just knew. But I didn’t. In fact, I was listening to HatP for at least a year, maybe even…

Question Tuesday
It’s getting closer to that time again… the Wizard Rock Peoples’ Choice Awards are coming up (no dates specified yet!), so I figure it’s better to start reflecting on the Wizard Rock of 2009 now, wouldn’t you say? With that in mind, I’d like to ask the question: What was your favorite live Wizard Rock…

I Solemnly Swear That You Should Listen to The Good Cheer
Happy #MuggleMusicMonday, everyone! Today’s band is one that I’ve grown extremely fond of. I was actually introduced to this band through Wizard Rock in a fun tale of adventure. Okay, so it’s not a huge adventure, but it involved travel and last minute plans being executed. This band is Nate Highfield and the Good Cheer,…
