PICKING UP ROCKS is a blog obsessively devoted to excavating the unjustifiably overlooked, hidden in plain sight & truly underappreciated in the musical universe, old and new ! My name is Hope & my mission is to shine a light on the best music regardless of label affiliation or level of fame or social media presence or genre or perceived coolness because WHO CARES. A great song is a great song. And whenever I stumble upon a great song I want to share it no matter if it was born in a garage, someone’s bedroom, a state of the art studio or a freakin’ garden shed ! Visit us here, it's all love.
