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 […]

With less than two weeks to go before the gates open, Astroworld has revealed the lineup for their third annual (excluding 2020 for obvious reasons) festival. Headlined of course by the festival’s founder and curator Travis Scott, this year marks the event’s first ever multi-day event. While no set times or schedule have been announced, […]
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 […]
There is a high chance that you’ve heard a Chvrches song somewhere — either in a video game, your local indie radio station, or a music festival.
