Yesterday evening, I returned to my favorite Miami venue to catch Modest Mouse play their second of 2 sold out shows, before their Ice Cream Float cruise. The cruise will feature 3 performances from the band as well as several other talented artists, such as Portugal. the Man, Kurt Vile and the Violators, Mannequin Pussy, Built to Spill, and many more... The packed crowd was filled with fans in sailor hats preparing for the embarkation the following day. Isaac joked that the
Del Water Gap chases the chimera…all the way to Philadelphia
“Philly is a second home,” Del Water Gap explains to a crowd of a couple thousand, on a cold Saturday night. Following the release of his third album, Chasing The Chimera, and returning for the first time in a handful of years, it seems he’s more than glad to be back. The setlist was packed with new fan favorites, like lead single “How To Live” and “Small Town Joan of Arc,” off his latest album. He pointed out the origin of “Ghost in the Uniform” being that of a Covid-era si
Twenty One Pilots “Breach” Tour
During the months of September and October 2025, I made my way to areas of the country I've never even thought of in order to catch a few stops of Twenty One Pilots' Breach tour. If you know me, you know I've spent the past 10 years traveling up, down, and around to see this band perform because one show of any Twenty One Pilots tour is just not enough. The visual production never ceases to amaze - animations dancing throughout amphitheater screens and lighting cues timed
the wombats at the culture room
seeing the wombats perform in fort lauderdale last night (at their first south florida show) was incredibly nostalgic to me. they kicked off their tour in the sunshine state earlier this week in st. augustine, commenting on how even the chilly weather was an improvement to the dreary grey winter og england. granted, it was still over 60 degrees F (us floridian residents tend to complain about any temperatures under 70F). this show brought me back to my college days, when goi

Combining elements of heavy punk, indie rock and a 90s alternative atmosphere, Holley Bynum (lead vocalist and bassist), Janie Peacock (lead guitar), Jilly Karande (rhythm guitar and vocals), and Hannah Nichols (drums) give it thei
Stories I Am Now Telling You by Quiet Light
Quiet Light’s new EP, ‘Stories I Am Now Telling You’, comes out on April 8th. The EP begins with previously released single, ‘Alight’, and it immediately surrounds you in the glowing ambience of Riya Mahesh’s music. It is a song of adoration so strong it doesn’t need to be requited. ‘Stories I Am Now Telling You’ lives in perfect harmony between mellow acoustic and laid-back indie; between city skylines and early morning light; between The National’s ‘I Am Easy To Find’ and ‘
not good enough by lily ryan
There are very few artists whose voices I find really pull at my heartstrings – and Lily Ryan has certainly earnt her spot on that list. Her talent is astronomical, and she’s only just getting started. Lily’s new single ‘Not good enough’ is a brilliant display of her angelic tone paired with a soft techno mix. The hero of the song is Lily’s voice; it’s like fine wine, with every relisten it just gets better and better. It is truly deliciously intoxicating. ‘Not good enough
Give You Everything by Eliza & The Delusionals
I was driving to work the other morning; it was a Saturday and it was one of those days when I got every red light, stuck in traffic, cursing people for driving slow in the fast lane. I was beyond frustrated, focused fully on the red light to see if maybe I could mind-control it to change over to green. Anyway, this is beside the point – as I was waiting at the last set of lights before I get to work, the radio started playing something that sounded very familiar, a voice I r
inasmuch by nudista
Sometimes music can just feel like a hug, wrapping warm arms around as you fall completely into the comfort of the melody. Indie-folk duo nudista’s release ‘inasmuch’ is exactly that, a reassuring you got this for when times get tough. Written by Pilar and Robbie during the pandemic, the song asks the listener to be open to change and challenge beliefs imposed on them by others. Pilar’s angelic vocals are accompanied by soft guitar and gentle percussion; the soothing tone of
sex and rage by body type
Body Type have blasted back into business with their first new music in three years and the announcement of their upcoming debut album. The new release ‘Sex & Rage’ is everything we missed from the Australian band Body Type – it’s bold, frisky, and surging with electricity. The song premises the idea of searching for exhilaration and passion in the unoriginal cliches of life. Sex and rage are a natural part of the human condition, and something that everyone shares in a way
alight by quiet light
The new single ‘’Alight, came out with the announcement of Quiet Light’s latest EP, ‘Stories I Am Now Telling You Again’. Riya Mahesh’s vocals are instantly captivating as she begins to slowly, carefully paint a picture of late night longing and starless skies. The haze of gentle guitar feels like the golden glow of the city through a condensated cafe window. “Your smile lights up the room,” she sings. “Even the darkest of rooms you’re there and suddenly it’s all beautiful.”
Good Boy - Moon Tide Gallery
Moon Tide Gallery’s newest EP “ Good Boy ” has set the bar almost unreachably high for any other psychedelic indie rock projects released in 2022. Is February too early to say this is my favorite album of the year? The EP opens with Winona’s Elevator , possibly my favorite track in this collection (even though it’s impossibly hard to only pick one). I don’t think there’s a single adjective in the dictionary that can accurately describe how this song makes me feel as a listene

Maybe not even letting it

London based singer-songwriter, producer and multi-instrumentalist KINDER presents us with his newest track "Gently" featuring Paige Bea. Wyatt's honesty and vulnerability in his lyrics about self destructive behaviors that has overcome him due to the end of relationships romantic and platonic.
