Founded in Los Angeles in 1997, Flogging Molly has always defied categorization. The infectious originality of their songs is a badge of honor and key to the band’s creativity, their urgency. They infuse punk rock with Celtic instruments—violin, mandolin and the accordion—and they merge blues progressions with grinding guitars and traditional Irish music, the music […]
Photos and Review by Katie Caccavale This past Tuesday, February 5, may have started out as a quiet night at Smith’s Olde Bar in Atlanta, but it sure ended with a big bang. The Wild Feathers may not be a household name today, but there is no doubt in my mind that they will soon […]
The brainchild of musician Nathan Sadler, Misery Loves Chachi is one of ATL’s most intriguing new bands. A blue collar synthesis of Belle and Sebastian and Steely Dan, the band mixes a diverse array of complex lo-fi keyboard textures–with ambient, dreamy electric guitar riffs–layered above dynamic and energetic drums and bass. Rich and subtle harmonies […]
Like a dramatic slow clap excitedly gaining momentum, Clap for Daylight began as a cavalier suggestion in an Atlanta dive in 2007 and has since originated a powerful album with a dramatic sound uniquely their own. As Nashville roommates, fellow music students Greg Vilines and Alex Arnett discovered they shared more than milk and the […]
Goth girls to survivalists, bovines to bibles, antique pistols to vintage motorcycles: Alberta-born honky-tonker Corb Lund’s songcraft covers it all. From a rustic retreat deep in the Rocky Mountain forest, Cabin Fever, Lund’s enthralling new album, evolved from a period of introspection and hard traveling. Just like the prolific Lund’s subjects run the gamut, so […]
Bo Bice’s initial claim to fame came in 2005, when he finished 2nd to Carrie Underwood on FOX television’s American Idol. His first release following that show, The Real Thing, yielded the chart-topping single “Inside Your Heaven” and helped Bice attain the first of his two gold record awards. “My next record will continue to […]
The Jompson Brothers were born in a garage in Nashville, TN as a result of late-night jam sessions between former SteelDrivers frontman Chris Stapleton (vocals, guitar) and Greg McKee (guitar). Bard McNamee (drums) and J.T. Cure (bass) were soon added to the equation, more jamming ensued, and the band was complete. Their self-titled debut (produced […]
There are musicians and artists in this world who sometimes like to keep a low profile and we can certainly respect that. Jonathan Richman is one of those private folks, so in lieu of an interview, we are going to provide you with a little show preview. Jonathan Richman is playing at The Goat Farm […]
Ricky Young, Joel King, Taylor Burns and Preston Wimberly, grew up steeped in music; playing solo gigs, touring with local bands and working at venues. The four guys came together in Austin in 2010 through coincidence, mutual friends, and a shared love of the classics: Petty, Dylan, Cash, The Band, Allman Bros, Neil Young and […]
Review by Ellen Eldridge Getting lost is one of the most attractive aspects of music. Concept albums and stacked up songs that let you lose and then find yourself layer by layer aid in catharsis as much as in solidifying an identity. Who would we be without those songs that sealed our first kisses and […]
Live Review and Pictures by Katie Caccavale The atmosphere at Eddie’s Attic in Decatur this past Friday night, February 1, was much like what you would expect at a family reunion. As the sold out crowd gathered in the listening room awaiting the arrival of Austin Renfroe to the stage, it seemed as though everyone […]
Live Review by Molly Free, Photos by Mae Elizabeth Braving the rain and tornado warnings, I ventured down to cozy Vinyl to check out A Silent Film.
