Things are a little mellow this weekend, probably with everyone gearing up for the big Turkey Fest coming up next week. But there is still a ton of incredible shows, and a donka-truck-tonnage of tickets going on sale, so you can get some Christmas shopping done too (and pick yourself up something nice while you’re […]
By Eileen Tilson / @tktalt_tn Did you know that by law in Canada, 35% of all music played on Canadian radio stations must be from Canadian bands? Which, I must say is a pretty great rule and allows for amazing bands like, The Trews, who since 2003, have had twelve Top 10 rock radio singles […]
By Eileen Tilson/ @tktalt_tn Now, you too can be the cool kid with the coolest shoes. Converse Inc. announced today the launch of their newest footwear collaboration with ever so awesome Gorillaz.

Nickelback Here and Now Roadrunner By Ellen Eldridge Nickelback surprises me with how controversial they’ve become lately. The protest against their scheduled Thanksgiving Day performance in Detroit seems far too overdramatic for what I always considered a pretty decent pop rock band. Front man Chad Kroeger and the rest of the band have not responded […]

The finale of the current tour takes place at Atlanta’s Tabernacle on […]
Bombadil All That the Rain Promises Ramseur Records By Leila Regan-Porter North Carolina’s Bombadil started out with a lot going for them. Signed to Ramseur Records as The Avett Brothers took off, they could pass as the Avett’s scrappy, just-as-breathtaking little brothers, and were quickly gaining well-earned attention with their own brand of genre-crossing powerful […]
Childish Gambino Camp Glassnote Records By Justin Lyons Childish Gambino’s (aka Stone Mountain native Donald Glover) underground works often stressed being different from the rest of the rap world. Camp, his first proper album, finds Childish Gambino in a class of upper echelon emcees and manages to balance influence with individualism.
By Eileen Tilson/ @tktalt_tn It is November, and 73 degrees. Ree-Dic-U-Los. Happy Tuesday everyone, let’s hope that the weather gods remember that it is technically the fall and not allowed to be tanning weather. Back to our regular scheduled program: Here are your events for Tuesday….be merry and procreate. –The Fling is an L.A. band […]
