This week’s iRock featured artist is female-fronted pop rock group Acalasia. While listening to their songs, you can’t help but be impressed with singer Krystal Shore’s solid vocal performance on Fire Away.  It will keep your hair standing on end until the last note is hit. However, Shore’s vocals isn’t the only factor contributing to this band’s mature sound. The instrumentation from Stephen Wells, Neil Deyarmin, and Ryan Sheehan are spot on and a wonderful compliment to Shore’s beautiful voice on every track. Many would agree that this band has all the elements to make a mark in the industry.

Check out the playlist below and I know you and I will be seeing eye-to-eye in a matter of seconds. Enjoy Tell Me How To Be, Fire Away, Save Me and Take It Or Leave It. And for you acoustic suckers, I embedded a video of a stripped-down “Fire Away.” Enjoy!
