The Needle and The Groove

http://theneedleandthegroove.com

From the rock and folk influences of the Needle, to the hip hop and R&B inspiration of the Groove, the Needle and the Groove explores all the sounds that make the world spin. We do not stop there, however. Realizing that art inspires art and that creativity expresses itself in many forms, we invite our readers to share their artistic expressions with us, whether it be in the form of writing, photography, video, drawings, paintings, etc. Music is inspired by the world around us. It cannot, and should not, be experienced alone. The Needle and the Groove hope that we can share with you, and that you will share with the world. Enjoy, and never let the music stop.
