A tiny island in the French West Indies, St. Barthélemy was long the ugly duckling of the Caribbean, a barren volcanic rock loved by few, aside from the often-inbred descendants of the first French settlers who arrived in the 17th century. Today, St. Barth is recognized worldwide as the luxury travel destination for the super-rich. At the height of its high season, between Christmas and New Year’s Day, the island’s harbor is transformed into a parking lot for superyachts, and its beaches, restaurants, and clubs become the ultimate see-and-be-seen scene. In Treasured Island, Treasured Island: The Story of St. Ba...

I'm sure while it was happening, I was freaking out. Camping in an RV with no internet. What was the real reaction, and do I remember not only the moment, but where we were? No. Yet the real story is how the path took us to a place of breathing in a space so often consumed by the internet.

Only the listener can decide.  “Finish Line”, a track that weaves together rock and Americana canvases, is from OG8’s “Recognize” album due October 14 via Beat Farm Music. The album is named after OG8 lead singer Jaime Lynch’s personal mantra. It’s also par for the course...
