Columnist Leslie Campos and our new Station Director Davis Mendoza Darusman were each able to catch a showing of the Alley Theatre‘s production of Constellations, which will be running until June 2nd. Below are both of their reviews of the venue and production, along with a little peek-behind-the scenes, courtesy of the Alley in Context post-talk […]

I remember there was a time when “Somebody That I Used to Know” was all that would play anywhere you went. The Gotye and Kimbra single was released in 2012 and became multi-platinum pretty fast. It then won the duo “Record of the Year” and “Best Pop Duo/Group Performance” awards at the 55th Annual Grammy […]

Over a decade later and still selling out venues. Chevelle may have made less than a handful of radio hits but their music has spoken to thousands. It was a new experience to go to a concert that began at 6:30 PM but with the amount of music that each band had to offer, it […]

Annie Erin Clark is a Grammy award winning artist who is better known by her stage name St. Vincent. Though born in Tulsa, Oklahoma, Clark moved to Dallas at the age of three and was partly inspired by her uncle and jazz musician Tuck Andress to pick up the guitar at age 12. Her inspirations […]

It fascinates me sometimes how artists who have been performing for over a decade still manage to put on a super energetic show and light up crowds of all sizes. The Sunday show at House of Blues was no exception with Spoon, an Austin band formed in 1993, rocking out so hard you’d never guess […]
