The more jaded ones will groan in resentment when I say this, but Dance Gavin Dance is the greatest band that ever was. Kidding! Even they’d disagree, but you’ve seen the YouTube comments. You’ve noticed the T-shirts. This band is taking over, and Houston is next on their 2019 Artificial Selection Tour. The boys […]
So Death Cab For Cutie just expanded their North American tour due to popular demand. What I demand to know is why you think tickets are going to wait for you any longer? The band will be in Houston on Wednesday, April 3rd with My Brightest Diamond as their supporting band. The band’s official […]
“Theater-in-the-round” (also known as an arena stage) has its roots in Greek rituals, only later transitioning into early theater. The audience was a much of a part of the performance as those in the center, and the priests (and later performers) would feed off the energy of the crowd. So it’s only fitting that Panic! […]
“If you do not do what you’re told to do when you’re told to do it you will be punished, do you understand?” “Aye, Sir!” “If you leave my base without proper authorization I will hunt you down and throw your ass in jail. Do you understand?” “Aye, Sir!” “I can’t hear you!” “Aye, Sir!” […]
Chaz B. aka Toro y Moi set the bar for the rest of the artist in the industry on how to make complete album. He didn’t give us too much or too less but just the right amount. Outer peace is a follow up to his efforts last year Boo Boo, and kept his streak […]
Toro Y Moi brought his groovy tone to a sold out show at White Oak Music Hall in Houston with the help of Wet and his band. Wet performed to a packed crowd as people waited for Toro and gave her the same energy as if she was the leading act. Toro y Moi released his […]
2018 was a year filled with countless ups and downs as well as tons of good music. Some songs happened to fall through the cracks and I’m here to make sure you didn’t forget them. Here are, Bops You Almost Missed in 2018.

“When the party’s over” and “Come out and play,” Billie Eilish Billie Eilish is an American singer and songwriter from LA who gained attention in 2016 with her single “ocean eyes.” Growing up in a family of musicians and actors, it’s no wonder Eilish is hitting it big at the early age of 16. She has […]
Manchester Orchestra, Photographed by Timothy Hiatt/ Stringer If you’re a fan of gripping lyrics, raw vocals, and an indie alternative sound, then this is a set you have to go watch! Manchester Orchestra, contrary to what their name may be implying, is not, in fact, an orchestra. They are a four piece rock band hailing […]
STP is more than just an automotive brand specializing in motor oil and aftermarket parts, it’s also an acronym for one of the most popular grunge bands of the 1990’s. The Stone Temple Pilots are based out of San Diego, California, originally consisting of vocalist Scott Weiland, bassist Robert DeLeo, his brother, Dean DeLeo on […]
Negro Swan is the fourth studio album by Dev Hynes under the moniker “Blood Orange.” The production of Negro Swan is completely unique, yet it feels oddly familiar. After doing some digging, I found that Dev Hynes has actually done production for the likes of Solange and FKA Twigs. In true form of other Dev Hynes projects, […]
The Replacements are an ’80s punk rock/alternative outfit from Minneapolis, Minnesota, whose claim to fame is drinking and a “100 steps forward and 99 steps back” approach to success. Like all great rock acts before them, they developed a fairly extensive rock mythology before disbanding in 1991. Real, verified stories include almost getting the entire Warner Bros. label […]
It is not unheard for bands to gain and release members throughout their musical run, but it is almost unheard of for a band to reach up to 15 members, let alone borrowing members from more than five bands at once. Broken Social Scene is exactly what their name implies, it is a group of […]

She had a good crowd gathered, and everyone was smiling, energetic, and feeding […]
T-minus two weeks until Austin City Limits returns to the grassy plains of Zilker Park, and it’s coming back with a vengeance. Bringing out big names like Jay-Z, Chance the Rapper, and Ice Cube, they’ve truly outdone themselves with this year’s lineup. Another headliner – who perhaps I’m most excited for – is The Revivalists. […]
Clover the Girl is a Dallas native that graces our ears with a perfect combination of grit and pop, giving us these ballads of emotion and truth with sick, head-bouncing beats. She draws inspiration from the likes of Twenty One Pilots and Halsey. Both of whom, I would argue, would readily give an approving nod […]
California math-rock band, Chon, took over the Bronze Peacock Room at the House of Blues on Saturday night. Despite Justin Bieber playing across the street at Toyota Center, they managed to completely sell out the show. Chon didn’t come alone, of course. They brought a crazy lineup filled with other instrumental bands that brought their […]
