This is a great chance to catch Pepper Rabbit live to see them do their wide array of instrument looping and switching thing, adding a
Rabble Rabble Before their show at Glasslands that has now become one of my favorite shows that I’ve been to this summer, Ralph Darski and Matt Ciarleglio of Rabble Rabble sat down with me over 2 for 1 beers at Williamsburger for what has become one of the more fun interviews I’ve done as well.
Alex Cooper of Parlovr I almost didn’t even go to this show at Glasslands on Friday (8/19), due to a spontaneous apocalyptic thunderstorm. The upside was that the storm was fleeting, but the downside was that I missed most of Caged Animals. I only caught the last song of their set, but what I heard

Man Man’s Honus Honus Last night was another raucous party at House of Vans with Crystal Antlers, Glass Candy, and Man Man. It wasn’t quite as packed or sweaty as it has been for past shows, but it definitely still smelled like a summer party. It was also evident that it was a party full
Marissa Nadler Saturday night (7/30) Marissa Nadler played the 2nd to last show of her current tour at Littlefield in Brooklyn. Littlefield is another one of those Brooklyn venues that seem to appear out of nowhere; you’re on what looks like a strictly industrial street with nothing of interest on it, but then suddenly you
