As a music fan, I have sometimes waited years to see certain bands in my city. I have known music fans who’ve waited almost a lifetime to see their favorite bands. I have even traveled to different countries to see bands on my must-see list and I’ve always had an amazing experience doing so. I […]
On a warm Orange County night, The Observatory in Santa Ana turned into a listening party of soul and lowrider oldies.

Tuesday night in Nashville can be one of two things: mundane and routine or out-of-this-world and chaotic.

Sometimes, the stars align just right. September 5th was one of those nights, when everything clicked: the venue, the bands, and the crowd all came together for something truly special at The Observatory in North Park, San Diego.
