One of the oldest and most beautiful venues in Atlanta, The Fox Theatre is one of our favorite places to see a show (or a movie, or play, or anything really).

A band on the precipice of greatness, The Black Lillies know what it takes to survive the turbulent waters of the music industry. It’s only through trust and a sense of familial camaraderie that the band is able to bid adieu to long time members Tom Pryor and Robert “Bobby Dix” Richards. After playing nearly […]
The second album from Nashville-based six-piece Kopecky, Drug for the Modern Age, takes the many shake-ups the band’s endured over the past few years and turns them into inspiration for groove-driven, melody-heavy alt-pop that’s intensely emotional and strangely exhilarating. Formerly known as the Kopecky Family Band, the group looks at such life-altering events as the […]
Two years ago, we caught up with The Shadowboxers, a budding band of buddies from Atlanta. Their smart perspective and soulful lyrics catapulted them to the forefront of the Atlanta music scene. After touring with the Indigo Girls as both an opening act and backing band, it’s safe to say they earned their place among […]

Alabama Shakes – “Sound & Color” (Official Video) We’ve been obsessed with Alabama Shakes’ new album of this song’s same name, Sound & Color, and we’re equally as obsessed with their new video.

Dawes – “Things Happen” Dawes premiered the lead single from their upcoming album, All Your Favorite Bands, on David Letterman last night. “Things Happen” is a wonderfully matter-of-fact song with the same great rock and roll sound we’ve come to expect from Dawes.

For 17 years, we’ve followed the coming-of-age story of alternative rock band Death Cab for Cutie. Now with the release of their eighth studio album, we are introduced to a slightly more nuanced and mature sound that tells of love lost, the realities of adulthood, and a band trying to hold itself together after co-founder and […]
Mason Jennings is one of the more talented and veteran musicians that has managed to (mostly) fly under the mainstream radar ever since he began putting out music. He is a truly gifted songwriter with a broad musical sensibility to match. He’ll be doing a two night run at Eddie’s Attic this coming May, which […]
