Photos and Review by Chandler Mays It’s a strange, yet very satisfying feeling that occurs when you show up to a sold out show for a band you’ve never heard of. I do pride myself on having a fairly eclectic knowledge of modern music, but as it turns out, I was blissfully ignorant of the […]
Photos and Review by Chandler Mays The passionate sounds of Tennessee’s finest rained down upon The Loft last Friday night. I found myself in the beating heart of a packed house, lubricated and primed to boogie down to a buffet of bluesy southern rock badassery. The Delta Saints of Nashville heated the crowd up with […]
Review By Gini Strobel, Fan photos courtesy of Jenny Williams My friend Jenny called me a couple of weeks ago and asked if I wanted to checkout the Die Antwoord show at Center Stage. While I was only vaguely familiar with the South African Hip Hop duo, it took one viewing of their YouTube video, […]
Photos by Codi Glancy, Review by Gini Strobel By now you guys know that we’re way into Milo Greene! Last night, we headed to The Earl, much earlier than usual, for an awesome meet and greet with MG. Two lucky winners had the opportunity to hang with the band before they went on stage. Singer/guitarist, […]
Photos and Review by Chandler Mays The Earl was immersed in a night of heartwarming LA-based indie music as two up and coming bands played to a small but enthusiastic crowd on tuesday night. Family of the Year took the stage first, delivering a gorgeous set of harmonious folk pop. The band’s name is quite […]
Photos and Review by Chandler Mays Bell X1 is an alternative rock band out of Dublin, Ireland. Lyrically, they write songs that run the gambit from romantic to tragic, clever, and downright cheeky. Their accents add an Irish charm that you can’t ignore, especially when they say ‘arse’ instead of our more common alternative. Sonically, […]
Photos and Review by Chandler Mays If you end up as a touring guitarist with Phil Lesch and Friends, it’s safe to say that you’re a talented musician. Jackie Greene is known for being the youngest lead guitarist to infiltrate the Dead circle, but more importantly, through hard work and undeniable talent, he has established […]
Photos by: CatMax Photography, LLC, Review by Catrina Maxwell I have to be honest when I was first asked to cover Nicki Bluhm I said yes, but had no idea who Nicki Bluhm was. There seemed to be some buzz about some YouTube videos called the “Van Sessions”. With two shows packed in one night […]
Photos By Hillery Terenzi, Review by Chandler Mays In today’s music scene, the notion of an “overnight success” has become status quo. One minute, you’re making electronic music in your bedroom, and you’re known locally thanks to your friends’ Facebook shares; the next minute you have a stamp of approval from Pitchfork, your amateur DIY […]
Photos and review by Jenna Hughes The second annual Little Five Festival kicked off on September 29th, showcasing over 40 local acts in 9 different venues in Atlanta’s Little Five Points. The Star Bar seemed to be the heart of the festival, with stages upstairs, downstairs and an outside stage that was surrounded by the […]
Photos by: Hillery Terenzi, Review by: Stephanie Roman How has Music Midtown changed over the last two decades? Are re-tweets from a band the new autographs? Do 52,000 people need more toilets than beer stands? One thing’s for sure: from year to year, what makes this Atlanta’s must-see festival is an amazing lineup. O’ Brother […]
Photos By Hillery Terenzi and Review by Codi Glancy The legendary Music Midtown Festival kicked off on Friday with a line up that included Van Hunt, Joan Jett and the Blackhearts, T.I., The Avett Brothers, and Foo Fighters. It was a great day for music in our wonderful Piedmont Park and as the night came, […]
Review and Photos by Codi Glancy It’s been 13 years since the last Ben Folds Five album and 12 since they last toured. Last night was the band’s first time back in Atlanta since 1998. Based on the packed Tabernacle crowd’s excitement, it’s been long over due. Opening act, Kate Miller-Heidke took the stage around […]
Photos and Review by Chandler Mays Ha Ha Tonka is a Missouri band that definitely knows how to cook up a stellar rock song. Their headlining set at Smith’s Olde Bar last friday served as an intoxicating lesson in Southern rock and gospel folk music for a rowdy group of Georgians. They reminded us that […]
By Gini Strobel The Second Atlanta International Pop Festival, Byron, GA 1970 A couple of weeks ago I posted an article about the 1970 Georgia Rock Festival Commemoration & the long-awaited preview of the feature-length documentary film by Director Steve Rash and produced by Atlanta’s own Alex Cooley. Well, last night I received the opportunity […]
