Music lovers young and old tabled their fears of inclement weather and ran to the AT&T Center in San Antonio, Texas for River City Rockfest on Saturday, September 22, 2018 – literally, they ran. When the doors opened at noon, fans ran through the gates to get to the opening acts quickly and/or to secure […]

Look Up Child, the second studio album by Lauren Daigle, snatches listeners to their feet, quiets theirs doubts, reinforces positive narratives of faith and simultaneously challenges obsolete views of spirituality using powerful lyrics and music infused with island, jazz, and classical sounds. Daigle flows from anthems to hymns smoothly like thread through the eye of […]

Rapsody, two-time Grammy nominated rapper, side steps pigeon holes, boxes and generalizations.

  The tUnE-yArDs’ sound is difficult to pin down. Consisting of loop pedals, lo-fi percussion, ukulele, electric bass, saxophone, horns and vocals, this synth driven, African inspired, indie folk sound scats all over the place, much like a psychedelic jazz song.

Imagine a longboard cruising down a cement boardwalk. To your left is an expanse of sand. Off the pace is the ocean, refracting the rays of the sun. It’s beginning to set. You’ve got your sunglasses on, but you can still see that the sky is a mix of rich oranges, yellows and pinks. The […]

Someone needs to go check the guys from Nothing More to see if their hearts are still beating. I think they left them on the stage at the House of Blues on February 23rd. With friends and family in the audience, they held absolutely nothing back at their first Texas show on their The Stories […]
