Claire Gallagher

Claire Gallagher is from Las Vegas, Nevada.  She grew up under blinking signs for Girls, Girls, Girls! and she hummed to the clanky sounds of slot machines in casinos and grocery stores and airports.   She now attends school at UCLA and is becoming very intimately acquainted with the kick-ass music scene Los Angeles so sweetly provides. When Claire is not on the back of a horse or playing with her pet snake, Skittles, she is listening to music, eating orange chicken, or spinning around in her rolly chair.  She is fond of tyrannosaurus rexes, John Steinbeck, and the fleeting feeling of post-concert deafness.  You can check her out on tumblr as well.

The gentlemen of Bethpage Black know the drama that comes with being in a heavy rock band.  Just glancing at the emo aesthetics of My Chemical Romance or The Used, you will soon pick up on the themes of exorbitance, emotiveness, and melodrama (and often the use of the colors white, black and red) in both image and music.  And while Bethpage Black...

This week we have before us a video that has long been in the queue for recognition.  I have talked to the band Ill a little and, in true rock star fashion, they deferred from consistence responses.  I have not heard from them since.  So, I figured why not give them a little credit for honesty and keeping th...
The word of the evening, ladies and gentlemen, is talent.  Last night at the Troubadour, raw talent was apparent in every band that graced the tiny stage, making for an awesomely accurate portrayal of today’s local rock scene.  Six groups came and went, each bringing a different and individual sound, thus creating a more than satisfying night of fa...
