Khruangbin, a musical trio from Houston, Texas, put St. Louis into a trance when they took the stage at The Factory, supported by Pakistani-American artist Arooj Aftab and her band.

I recently made the cross-Missouri trek from St. Louis to the Starlight Theatre in Kansas City in order to see one of my favorite bands that I discovered in 2024 — Rainbow Kitten Surprise. Yes, I know, I am very behind the 8-ball when it comes to RKS… almost a decade behind for a band […]
The first Pitbull concert I ever attended blew my mind. It was back in 2022 and I expected the audience to be a bunch of elderly millennials and moms, all wanting to get down to Mr. Worldwide like they did back in the early 2000s. Color me shocked when I showed up to a sold-out […]

The Smashing Pumpkins made a tour stop in St. Louis on a beautiful August evening and showed the packed house that they’ve still got it. This is a band that has been innovating on what rock music can sound like for multiple decades, formed over 35 years ago by frontman Billy Corgan. When a band […]
I’d like to come right out of the gate and say that I underestimated Earth, Wind & Fire. Now don’t get me wrong — I know they’re an amazing band. But what I did not know was just how many of the people in St. Louis were also aware of this fact. Typically, when I […]
It was another scorching hot day in St. Louis, as fans gathered for early alternative heavyweights Third Eye Blind at the Hollywood Casino Amphitheater, joined by Yellowcard and A R I Z O N A. The show started while the sun was still high in the sky. A R I Z O N A took […]
Say Anything, one of the early 2000s pop punk bands that had my pre-teen years in a vice grip, recently toured in celebration of the 20-year anniversary of their second studio album …Is A Real Boy. As has been the trend with many emo and indie bands with albums reaching decade-long milestones, the band played […]
Gary Clark Jr. hosted a night for music lovers at The Factory in St. Louis. The musician from Austin showed up with one of the most impressive rigs I have seen in a while, which was only rivaled in impressiveness by the way he played the guitar. The audience at The Factory showed up early […]
St. Louis was given their latest dose of Rock-and-Roll as Greta Van Fleet kicked off the second leg of their Starcatchers World Tour at Chaifetz Arena.

Delmar Hall hosted an intimate night of ethereal rock as the band Palace took to the stage for a stop on their Spring 2024 US tour. The venue was packed from front to back and buzzing in anticipation for the show, as I elbowed my way up to the front before shooting the opening act. […]
The Old Rock House just south of Downtown St. Louis hosted another heavy dubstep show to a packed house of headbangers. The heavy-wub-heavyweight Kai Wachi and his two opener acts were brought to town by B&W productions, and certainly gave the audience a performance to remember. Accompanying Kai Wachi on the tour were the two […]
