RadioIndy is pleased to present Spike Nicer with a GrIndie Award for the CD "Mystery Time"

"Mystery Time," by singer/songwriter Spike Nicer, is a collection of Americana/Southern rock styles. His vocals are strong and sung with sincerity, which brings together the flavor of southern country rock. His lyrics are creative, fun, and heartfelt with nice assortments of upbeat tempos to slow ballads. Splashed with a solid supporting brass section and lively bluesy rhythms, "E.I.L.Y" and "Back-up Man" will get your feet tappin' to the beat. Changing up to a nice country swing, "Kate Shaw" is complemented with country fiddle fills and steel guitar riffs. This album is of first-rate production, as each instrument is clean and precise while never overpowering the vocals. Listeners who like the musical styles of Chris Isaak or Harry Chapin won't be disappointed when listening to "Mystery Time."

RadioIndy is pleased to present Chris DeMarco with a GrIndie Award for the CD "Chris DeMarco-The 80's"

Chris DeMarco's most recent self titled release, "Chris DeMarco-The 80's" is an album that re-invents the upbeat classic pop rock music of that era. DeMarco, a seasoned veteran of music who has performed with various well known artists, has decided to debut his works originally recorded in the 1980's. These catchy pop styles are splashed with light lyrics over striking guitar riffs while keyboards add a touch of pop orchestration. DeMarco's vocals are melodic and rich, exhibiting his polished, strong and distinct voice. Note the high harmonies on "The Same Old Way" and also on "One More Shot." They are undoubtedly a staple of '80's pop. Rock-hard drums streaming with solid fills and edgy guitar licks reach well beyond their roots on "The Mirror." If you like music that captures the essence of 80's pop/rock, "Chris DeMarco-The 80's" is a CD well worth listening to.
