Artist: The Crickets

India and cricket have been inseparable for a long time. The status afforded to cricketers in the country is one of almost maniacal worship and Indian cricket fans are probably the most dedicated sport fans in the world. The slightly mystifying nature of cricket in India though, is that everyone believes the team is capable of doing everything. Whenever the team wins a match, there is widespread jubilation (I saw people giving away free food and alcohol to anyone on the street when India won the World Cup last year) but as soon as the team loses, the players lose face in [...]

Recently, we reported that American pop star Katy Perry would be performing at the opening ceremony of the fifth season of the Indian Premier League. Further developments indicate that long-time Bangla rockers Fossils will be playing on April 5 at the newly renovated Eden Gardens before the Delhi Daredevils and Kolkata Knight Riders match. Eden Gardens is the home stadium of the Kolkata Knight Riders and also the second largest cricket stadium in the world, by seating capacity. It's a well-known fact that the Shah Rukh Khan-owned franchise lost a lot of local support in the city [...]

In India, what is considered as the most popular sport is cricket. Filled with live action and entertainment, it makes the Indian crowd go wild with excitement. With another season coming up, the fans are even more eager. The Delhi Daredevils , as one of the prevailing teams in the Indian Premiere League, will surely be one of the most anticipated teams. With the team's record-breaking acts, many fans are rooting for this cricket team to rock the game. The team will have to try their hardest to uphold their fame since they are starting to have losses and [...]

The range of qualities that are available in the hair dryer section of a store is substantial. It pays to do some serious research into what each product does. The Cricket 5250 is a stellar buy, as it is leaps and bounds above similar products both in terms of quality and functionality. This ceramic heat [...]

American pop music star, Katy Perry, will be performing at the opening ceremony of the ever popular Twenty20-format Indian Premiere League. This will be Perry's first performance in India. The official IPL website had this to say about the opening (be warned, a kvlt description is about to grace your purview) Katy Perry, the international musical sensation, shows the boys how it's done before they speed away into a new season of DLF IPL. Having ruled the music charts and won every prestigious award from the Billboard to the Brit, the pop princess is all set [...]

Apparently, Cricket's US mobile-music-bundle Muve service is thriving in the US . The Guardian reports the words of John Bolton, "senior director of product": "[O]ne year in, we have 600,000 paying subscribers, making us the second largest digital subscription service in the US." Well, I guess if you compare your mobile phone service with, erm, digital music subscriptions - being second to Rhapsody might sound impressive. Even if you're still about half a million behind, and Rhpasody doesn't come with unlimited talk, text and data. But how does Muve compare with products that it actually [...]

El Salón de la Fama del Rock and Rol l eligió para este año a 6 bandas de apoyo que durante 3 décadas fueron pasadas por alto. The Comets, Blue Caps, The Crickets, Famous Flames, The Midnighters y The Miracles formarán parte del salón de la fama, a pesar de los años que su talento se mantuvo sin reconocimiento.

Los Angeles Times (MCT) -- LOS ANGELES - Let's hear it for the band. The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame has decided to induct six bands whose high-profile leaders previously made it into the hall individually, in recognition of the critical role those musicians played in the history of pop music. Buddy Holly's Crickets, Bill Haley's Comets, James Brown's Famous Flames, Gene Vincent's Blue Caps, Hank Ballard's Midnighters and Smokey Robinson's Miracles will join their frontmen as full-fledged members...

Repost: Published in 2009, still of interest today. To this day, people still mourn the musical talent who died in a plane crash in the early morning hours of Feb. 3, 1959. A small airplane, carrying rock stars Buddy Holly, J. P. "The Big Bopper" Richardson and Ritchie Valens, crashed only minutes after taking off from Mason City, Iowa, in a snowstorm. The three had just played the "Winter Dance Party" (see yesterday's post ) and were heading to the next stop in [...]

Our favorite prolific weirdo, Moka Only, has a new album in the works with fellow studio rat Chief. But before their joint record, Crickets , drops next month, they want to make sure they have some heat in the works. Well, we were already anticipating the album anyway, but the title-track confirms it. If you like your hip-hop laid-back and smoked-out - but not too weeded - you better mark Nov. 8 on your calenders. That's when Crickets drops, y'all. Hit the skip to stream and download.

Canadian rapper/producer Moka Only teams up with Swiss beatmaker Chief for the finest indie hip-hop album you might hear this year, "Crickets". The album showcases the talent of two very gifted artists, pushing the boundaries of hip-hop while preserving its backbone. The album showcases Moka Only's unique raps fused with Chief's sound signature of merging straight hip-hop elements with forward-thinking production.
