It was absolutely perfect weather the night of Saturday, August 15th at Long Beach’s new F&M Bank Amphitheater, as opening acts Lanie Gardner, Lauren Watkins, Randall King, and DJ Rock joined headliner Luke Bryan for his Word on the Street Tour promoting his upcoming ninth studio album, Signs — scheduled to be released this year […]
Sometimes concert photography starts with a photo pass waiting at the box office and everything going exactly according to plan. Other times you stand around outside the venue, wondering if anyone knows who you are or why you’re there. July 29th was leaning pretty heavily toward the second option. With my credentials temporarily stuck somewhere […]
Cypress Hill brought their classic west coast sound to the Pacific Amphitheatre in Costa Mesa for a night of old-school hip hop and Chicano energy. Opening the show was Ozomatli, another band heavily influenced by Cypress Hill. Having both groups on the same bill made sense, because they both have strong roots in the Los […]
On Friday, August 7th, the SAP Center — home to the San Jose Sharks — played host to rising pop superstar Benson Boone for a mystical, magical night.

More than two decades after Fallen turned Evanescence into one of the defining rock bands of the early 2000s, Amy Lee can still walk onto an arena stage and make the whole thing feel intimate. The band’s recent St. Louis show was big, loud, and impressively produced. First up was Nova Twins, entertaining early fans […]
On Friday night, August 7th, Jack Harlow’s Monica Tour rolled through The Fillmore Minneapolis. As the second night of the tour following a four-year break, it was hard to imagine what Harlow had up his sleeve for the night. The release of Monica in March 2026 marked a clear shift in sound for Harlow and […]
Beach Bunny has built an impressive career out of making emotional damage sound like the best part of summer — and at a sold-out Delmar Hall in St. Louis, the Chicago indie rock band demonstrated just how effective that formula becomes when an entire room is shouting the feelings back at them. Indianapolis band Wishy […]
The Pavilion at Star Lake in Burgettstown, Pennsylvania was packed Friday night as fans came out for a night of hard rock, a bit of country, and a whole lot of noise. The night started with Eva Under Fire, who got the crowd going before Cody Jinks took the stage and switched things up with […]
Garden AMP in Orange County brought in fans for an evening of independent hip hop as Kota The Friend showed up for his Just Happy To Be Here Tour, presented by Out Da House Productions.

On Saturday night, fans came in droves to the newly constructed Mystic Lake Amphitheater in Shakopee, Minnesota to watch Hilary Duff perform a mix of her early 2000s anthems and current pop releases.

On July 13th, West Des Moines fans gathered at the Val Air Ballroom for an unforgettable night of international metal, with face-melting riffs as hot as the heat outside.

There are some summer nights you wish you could keep in your pocket forever. Warm weather, live music, your favorite people, and not a single thing to worry about.

Let’s get weird — it’s Les Claypool night! Marketed as “Claypool Gold”, Les Claypool brought not one, not two, but three of his bands to town on June 1st, complete with the prodigal son Sean Lennon to boot. The place to be was Gallagher Square at Petco Park, home of the Padres, smack dab in […]
I walked into Bridgestone Arena genuinely excited this past week. For starters, it would be my first time seeing openers Nova Twins and, while I’ve had a few opportunities to catch their shows in the past, I’ve never made it, so I was thrilled to finally see them live on a big stage. Second, I […]
Acoustic shows belong to the kind of people who know every single word. Satsang fans tend to be that way: deeply loyal humans that are drawn in by music that feels less like entertainment and more like a conversation that they desperately need to have. This particular occasion gave them plenty to feel good about, […]
