Side Eyes The first band of the night that performed at White Oak Music Hall on the night of Tuesday, Oct. 23rd was the Side Eyes, a high-energy four-piece that has released music through Burger Records as well as other labels. I would be lying if I said I had ever heard of this band […]

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 […]

What is the best approach to naming a band? Most of the time it seems as if there is no technique, but the name is simply a roll of the dice and random words strung together. At first glance at the band name Fever 333, the first thought is just that, “Well, that’s random.” The […]

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 […]
“Emulation. Oh, I know that guy. Imitation. Oh, you are that guy.” Mike is not that guy. Ryan is not that guy. Pat is not that guy. Ricky and Dave? Not those guys. Then, who are they? These guys make up the band Red Sun Rising and their only charge of imitation is in the […]
Have you ever wondered what Tame Impala would sound like if Kevin Parker continued in the musical direction of Innerspeaker?

The five piece hasn’t been around for that long, yet they sound so experienced and tight that it’s hard to believe […]
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 […]
