😍😍😍

Natalie Grace Sweet's rough rock voice stands out and Brad Marino lends his great rocking guitar work and strong hooks to the music. Second Time is powerpop in optima forma. The guitar is all over the place, muted, full out and everything in between. The bass is allowed to play some great melodic runs and a warm organ tops it all off as the ideal icing on the cake Second Time is. As usual Brad Marino throws in a short but oh so effective guitar solo. He always manages to play it all in just a few seconds. Second Time hopefully is not the only collaboration between the two artists, as their collaboration is all one should be, 1 + 1 = 3. - WoNo Blog

Hey everyone! A lot of new followers here… THANK YOU! Maybe I should let you know the story of the label. Reta was my mom. She passed away a few years ago and in her spirit, I created this label. The flower in the logo was her favourite flower, and also the flower of my home province - Saskatchewan. She was always very supportive of my musical career in . I wanted to celebrate her and her support by giving support to artist that I love. As a woman in music, I have always found that there was never enough space at the table for us.
So I set my own table. Thank you all for the continued support with this project. It means the world to me.

A little write up on the new Second Time/ Over My Head record!

Nice lil' rave-up and single stream for Natalie Grace Sweet & Brad Marino in Boston Groupie News, Cheers!!

“Second Time” is another hard pop rocker from Brad Marino. This time it’s with singer Natalie Sweet. The song comes blasting out at the beginning. You feel the force. The guitars are razor sharp and have a real punch, such a great recording job. Sweet has a clear but substantive voice, there’s no wimpiness in it at all. For a power pop garage nugget, it doesn’t get better than this.
