Festival junkies — the lineup has landed! Goldenvoice continues its legacy at the top of the weekend fest curator list with another mega reveal for Coachella 2026. Usually announced in January, long-time Chellaheads are being treated to early answers this year — and, needless to say, all minds are absolutely blown. Although a couple elements […]
Sunday morning brought the promise of a great final day of Iowa’s most underrated weekend gathering, Hinterland. The same easiness was in the air from the two days prior and it was shaping up to be another perfect-weather day. The lineup was to be an vivacious one, with a bit of a country detour before […]
Come Saturday afternoon, spirits continued to be up for Day Two of Hinterland 2025 with another beautiful day in the countryside of Iowa. Beautiful weather is a notable (albeit, uncontrollable) change from last year’s Hinterland, to say the least. The temperature got up there a few times, but nothing compared to what I’ve heard about […]
A festival set in Saint Charles, Iowa is probably not at the top of many people’s festival bucket lists, but after experiencing Hinterland Music Festival a few weeks ago, I’m here to tell you — it should be.This three-day event was the perfect summer escape from reality. From August 1st through 3rd, the small town […]
On Saturday, August 16th, Lucy Dacus celebrated her last night of the Forever Is A Feeling Tour — at least, her August run — at the historic Greek Theatre located within UC Berkeley. Doors opened at 6:30, but lines were already wrapped down the street well before 6pm, marking the sign of a great show […]
I can’t think of a better way to start the month of August than seeing a Rainbow Kitten Surprise show. The first of August fell on a Friday — a perfect night to begin the weekend with live music outside. Saint Louis Music Park was bustling with people under the soft orange sun, some with […]
Walking into Ascend Amphitheater on a humid Nashville night, I felt the buzz of anticipation ripple through my body. I also felt the sweat pouring down my head thanks to this unusually hot summer. There’s something about seeing a band like Alabama Shakes in an outdoor venue that already feels electric before the first note […]
The Crane Wives, a band I haven’t really had much of an opportunity to get to know until I was asked to cover their Nashville tour date, dropped into Nashville’s Brooklyn Bowl on an overly humid Nashville summer night. A quick Google search let me know the band is renowned for their evolution from folk‑pop […]
Friday night in Nashville marked another first for me this year: it was my first time shooting at the latest and greatest venue in town — The Pinnacle. The Pinnacle is a 2,500-person venue that was recently constructed in the heart of downtown Nashville. While the concert house has already hosted many big shows this […]
The week was off to a great start for The Pageant on Monday night, with a packed venue for Jack’s Mannequin — the show having entirely sold-out. There was a buzzing of excitement as people gathered outside to get in line and make their way to the front of the stage. The evening’s opener was […]
My Morning Jacket recently wrapped up the first half of their Is Tour. We caught up with them at the second-to-last stop at The Pageant in St. Louis to see what the Louisville band was up to. The last time I saw My Morning Jacket was on the backend of a three-hour set that they […]
Saturday. Day Three. Reggae Rise Up Florida was in full gear. Attendees were halfway through the event and the energy had no indications of waning. From kicking off the day with local favorites Seranation until the rockin’ after-party with Bumpin Uglies, the day was packed with amazing music and experiences. A great advantage of music […]
Portland-based indie singer-songwriter Shiloh Mae has dropped another beautiful track, “Photograph”. Mae is nothing short of brilliant. Her vocals are smooth and diverse. Any listener from all walks of life will dig her sound. Reminiscent of Lizzy McAlpine and Maggie Rogers, her music is eccentric and alluring. For those that need an introduction, this beautiful […]
Can you remember the first song you ever listened to of a band? We all have one… that one song that opened the musical doors in your mind. Something about it clicks with you; you can’t explain it. For whatever reason, it just feels right. The first time I heard Bright Eyes, I was 16 […]
Australian alt group Lime Cordiale brought the energy to San Diego for the tail-end of their Enough of the Sweet Talk Tour at the Observatory North Park on Tuesday night. Supported by opener Foxtide, the two bands created a jam-packed evening of vibrant and animated fun. Formed right here in San Diego, indie surf rock […]
