GTS Presents: Winter Wonder Rock kicked off on Sunday, January 16th at three in the afternoon and went until nearly Midnight. The poster going around social media listed 25 bands on the ticket that would be sharing the time between the upstairs and downstairs stages of White Oak Music Hall. To start off I will […]
Indie rock band Beach Bunny made their way to Houston during their Blame Game North American tour with opener Miloe. Before doors opened at 7PM, it was easy to overhear everyone in line talking about their favorite Beach Bunny tracks and their fame status on TikTok. As soon as you entered the venue, the first […]
This music-filled Saturday kicked off with an impressive performance from local Houston guitarist and singer-songwriter Jacob Hutto at the House of J in East Downtown. Hutto was almost a last-second addition to the Astralace and Oh, Hooray lineup presented on the ticket. Still, Jacob Hutto was an impressive musician. I was particularly impressed with Hutto’s […]
I arrived to White Oak Music Hall at 7:00PM, right as doors opened. North Street was packed with parked cars, and a line of concertgoers ran all the way down to the last street parking spot, about a block and a half from the venue. And again, this was before the first opener even went […]
Wednesday night, White Oak Music Hall was graced by 100 gecs — either one of the worst or best bands of our time, depending on who you ask. The line outside the venue before the show started served as testament to how large the band’s fanbase has grown recently. After waiting for doors to open, […]
Alex G stopped by Houston this past Tuesday as part of his most recent tour. He has spent the last decade not only creating inventive music, but also cultivating a unique fanbase and culture surrounding his music. Never taking himself too seriously, his fans are seemingly all as unserious and joking as he is. As […]
Electronic Pop band Chvrches is finally setting out on their North American tour for their fourth album, Screen Violence, and Houston had the honor of being the first stop of the tour. No one knew the setlist, stage set-up, or the band’s wardrobe, but everyone knew it was going to follow the dark tones of […]
On October 14, singer-songwriter SZA announced a set of shows that will happen throughout November. She described the shows as “not being a tour,” but rather “intimate performances” she would play in a few cities. One of her stops was in Houston at Warehouse Live and I immediately got tickets, which was such a good […]
Japanese Breakfast made a tour stop at the beloved White Oak Music Hall in Houston, along with openers SASAMI. The doors opened at 8, and everyone in line was ready to kick off the Halloween weekend with the band. All you can see is unique costumes, from a juice box to an Astronaut that represented […]
It was big news when three local bands — BLURRED IN10TIONS, Everglaze and Rōzy — were announced to open for Trapt. The show was at Rise Rooftop, a venue known for its electronic dance parties and EDM artists, so it was a bit unusual for a rock concert to be held here, especially on Halloween […]
Friday was a long night. My partner in crime and I were greeted with a fully sold-out show at White Oak Music Hall, full of young couples yearning for an intimate journey that sourly reeked, reminiscent of a high school dance. After arriving a tad bit late to what soon unveiled itself as the tamest […]
Beach Fossils and Wild Nothing set off on a co-headlining “Out in the Way” tour across North America in the beginning of October. They played all the major Texas cities, and ended their Texas run in Houston’s very own Satellite Bar. Doors opened at 7, and everyone in line couldn’t wait to get a couple […]
GTS Presents Rocktoberfest kicked off hard and fast with Houston alt-rock Trio Sub Penguin. The power trio kicked off the show at 4:00PM with the high-voltage energy you would expect from a band covering tunes from Nirvana. Sub Penguin ended their thirty-minute set with a bang (literally) when singer and guitarist Griffin Perkins smashed his […]
Houston’s largest music festival is back again for another year. Like every other festival, Astroworld took a hiatus last year, but Travis Scott and his brand of high-energy rap music seem to be on track for another banger in 2021. As in years past, the festival lineup hasn’t been revealed yet, so in the meantime […]
The third and final day of ACL started off strong with Texas local artists Nané, which came together at UT Austin in 2016, as well as rockstar-in-training Zach Person and group BLK ODYSSY, both from Austin, TX, as well. Rap/hip-hop artist Payday performed at the same time as these artists as well. She was born […]
ACL Day 2 starts with me arriving at 12:30, determined to see some of Frances Forever‘s act before heading to the press lounge to write. I made it for the very end of their set, so I got to watch them perform from a distance. Frances Forever’s name was displayed in a 1970’s-inspired font on […]
The first day of ACL was my first time going at all, so I took longer than anticipated parking/getting in/etc. However, when I walked in around 2:30 I was pleasantly surprised by the low hum of energy already coursing through the park. I walked past the Honda stage where jxdn was welcoming a girl from […]
The University of Houston held it’s annual Glow Party event in Lynn Eusan park on Thursday, August 26, and it was worth the hype. The student organization leaders started getting to work around 6:45, setting up mountains of glow stick necklaces, glasses, and bunny ears on tables around the park. Pizza, soda, and waters got […]
The dog-days of summer are upon us here in Houston. The night arrives sooner and the breeze feels cooler. It’s Friday the 13th, yet Downtown has a calm demeanor about it. The iconic neon blue sign of House of Blues shines brightly in the setting summer sky and onto the surrounding street. Tonight, I’m seeing […]
This past weekend at the Revention Music Center, I had the privilege of going to shoot the Trippie Redd concert for Coog Radio! The energy during the concert was insane. The opening artists were leading up to Trippie’s great performance and did so by creating synergy from one performer to the next. The show was […]
