London – On the back of a solid 32-date tour over November and December that took in the U.S., U.K. and Europe, Indianapolis siblings Lily And Madeleine took a well-earned break from the road. Their travels are set to resume again in February when the duo criss-cross the States with a total of 17 shows
Los Angeles – Late on a chilly Thursday evening, Angelenos packed into the warm confines of The Satellite to take advantage of the venue’s free “Satellite Nights” concert series, which kicked off the first week of 2015. Those that made the trip out to Silver Lake were treated to a powerfully propulsive set by Monogem,
London – The year-end holidays of course can have a damaging effect on both your wallet and waistline. Add to that any over-indulgence on New Year’s Eve and you have first world populations suddenly vowing to detox, lose weight, stay home and spend next to nothing in January. If that sounds like you, fear not
Los Angeles – Catfish and the Bottlemen perform their single “Kathleen” in their late night television debut on “Late Show with David Letterman”. The performance celebrates their debut LP The Balcony, out now via Communion Records. In addition, “Kathleen” recently reached #1 on Sirius XM’s Alt Nation and is charting in the top 20 on the Alternative Radio Chart. The band, who
Portland – Rae Sremmurd, a hip-hop duo from Tulepo, Mississippi, could prove to be a divisive group in the years to come. For those who can appreciate the deliberate weirdness of Swae Lee and his older sibling Slim Jimmy, their debut album SremmLife, out this week, is an enjoyable, if occasionally uneven record. The album
Nashville – As eerie as its eponymous moniker, Ghost Culture’s recent debut (via Phantasy) delivers a delightfully unpredictable catalog of work. Though customarily infused with a hint of Detroit techno and all of the familiar trappings of contemporary electronica, Ghost Culture still manages to unabashedly rise above these labels with a series of songs that
Chicago – If you’re an avid YouTuber, chances are you’ve seen Until The Ribbon Breaks ’ amazing, self-made music videos. If not, you’ve got some YouTubing to do! The U.K. band started as Pete Lawrie Winfield’s solo project a little over two years ago but grew into a trio with the addition of drummer Elliot Wall
Chicago – I’m going to break some rules here. One being some first person talk and the other being an admission of bias. I love The Orwells! This is not just because like me they were born and bred in Illinois. They genuinely rock! Thanks to my fandom, I’ve discovered I also love LA bands
Chicago – Shortly after releasing their debut EP Tears On The Beach, Tel Aviv band Soda Fabric delved right into the Berlin music scene and into the sights of underground music lovers around the world. Since the four-piece made the move to Germany, twenty-three year-olds Shachak Itzkovitz, Jill Abramov, Moosh Lahav, and Tamir Chen have
Austin - Yip Deceiver doesn’t have much star power…yet. Even piggybacking off their status as Of Montreal alumni. Last year’s debut record Medallius was no instant breakout, good as it was. So, maybe those in attendance at their set at the Mohawk one night last week will be able to look back as that time they
