For as much as singer/songwriter/guitarist Tim Montana may be known as a wild man (and he certainly is), he really asserts himself as a tried-and-true storyteller with his new single "Devil You Know." He has shared the video today.

The song finds Montana exploring his moody, rock 'n' roll roots, as the song is propelled forward by the high-octane riffs that introduce the song's gritty and emotionally crackling and lyrically raw chorus. "Devil You Know" certainly shows off a different side of Montana's musical personality and fans of bands like Foo Fighters, Staind, Godsmack, Theory of a Deadman, and Three Days Grace will easily gravitate towards the propulsive rhythms and energy.

Seattle alternative duo Pretty Awkward have released "Woozy", their new single and music video (directed by the band's Nicholas Wiggins) and to celebrate, they tell us about the track and video. Here is the story:

Austin Held on the song: Lyrically, 'Woozy' was inspired by poking fun at the kind of relationships that one can have when they're a young, misguided adult. When you initially vibe with someone it can seem like innocent young love. But over time it can evolve into an unhealthy and intoxicating "situationship". It's one that our main character can't help but keep returning to over and over again - because it feels so good in the moment. (continue)
