Apollonia Kotero – What Has She Done Lately?

I am not sure how many of you remember the actress/singer Apollonia Kotero. She starred in the oscar-winning movie Purple Rain back in 1984, and had a hit single”Sex Shooter” from her group Apollonia 6. She has appeared in television shows, including Night Rider, Chips, Falcon Crest , and Fantasy Island. She was in the films Back to Back, Black Magic Woman, and Ministry of Vengeance, just to name a few.

Gina Villalobos – Country Rock Has a New Queen

Gina Villalobos has performed on countless stages throughout the world. Her songs appear simple, but don’t let that fool you. There are far-reaching meanings hidden behind her lyrics. Her voice borders on tough, yet tender, at times. And after a few listens, you can’t help but read between the lines.

But will the playing field for Indie artists ever rival that of the signed artist on a major label? Will the Madonnas and Beyonces of the independent world ever reach the fame they so justly deserve?
