Finally! It took until mid-June, but we’ve now got a peek at Pepper Rabbit’s upcoming album Red Velvet Snow Ball. I guess it’s not that much of a wait when you consider that it doesn’t come out for another month and a half. Still, color me super excited for it. MP3: Pepper Rabbit – Rose [...]

Monday night has maybe never been as crazy as it was during the sold out show Del the Funky Homosapien played at Cosmic this week.
