On Sunday, July 27th, American rock band Dispatch brought their summer tour to San Francisco’s The Masonic. Tour support for the evening included Donavon Frankenreiter and G. Love opening the night followed by Aussie roots rock legend John Butler. The combination of Donovan Frankenreiter and G. Love (sans Special Sauce) made for a special pairing, […]
You wouldn’t think that a Tuesday night would end up a full-on party. But it’s summertime in San Diego, with the Padres playing (and winning) next door to The Rady Shell, where Beck was joining the San Diego Symphony on the waterfront for a one-of-a-kind performance of euphonic deep cuts he rarely (or never) performs […]
Sometimes, a show hits in a way that reminds you exactly why the music has stuck with you over time — how certain albums become part of who you are. Incubus‘s performance in San Diego on July 19th, celebrating the 20th anniversary of their mega hit album Morning View, was one of those shows. I’ve […]
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 […]
A 10xTANTRUM, on the surface, sounds like something no person would ever want to experience, but when it comes to this fun genre-defying new alt pop supergroup, it sounds absolutely heavenly. 10xTANTRUM is a brand new, fun, edgy, and sexy alt-pop supergroup formed by four standout creatives: multidisciplinary artist and musician Eli Romanova, actress and […]
On Friday July 18th, Incubus performed at The Venue at Thunder Valley in Lincoln, CA — one of those places where every seat in the house is a great seat! With a start time shift from 7:30 to 7pm, it was kind of a bummer for opener Paris Jackson who had to perform to an […]
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 […]
Marking the first day of summer with a slam dunk of 90s bands is quite a way to start. At least, that was the case for me, heading into the trifecta of Barenaked Ladies with Guster and Fastball at San Diego State’s Open Air Theater (or whatever corporate name it’s called now) on June 20th! […]
Hinterland Music Festival — a lowkey, folk-centered festival in small town Iowa — returns for its celebratory 10th year on August 1st through 3rd, 2025. With a stacked lineup of mainstream headliners, as well as a powerful indie-folk undercard that the festival is known for, this three-day is once again drawing thousands to St. Charles, […]
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 […]
There are some artists that are true enigmas in their craft… Ones that you can’t peel your eyes away from as they perform; ones that fully encompass the music they make. I was excited to finally see K. Flay live (been waiting over a decade for it!!), but little was I prepared for the wild […]
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 […]
This past Thursday night at the Ryman Auditorium in Nashville, Tennessee, I had the privilege of doing something I had never done before in the history of me shooting concerts. That was to shoot an artist for a second time after covering them many years ago as a local artist. I am talking about a […]
Los Angeles fans of all ages packed into the sold-out heart of Hollywood on Sunset Blvd. at the Hollywood Palladium for the final stop of Phantogram’s Running Through The Colors Tour.
