“Do you get it, Coral? I said it was eye-popping. Coral?”

Ween reunited for three nights at the First Bank Center in Broomfield, CO on February 12-14, 2016. Glide photographer Todd Radunsky was there for all three nights to capture these shots!      

Following in the boot steps of Gram Parsons, Merle Haggard and George Strait, Caleb Caudle makes pure country music rooted in the genre’s glory days, back when melody, mood and message ruled the roost. It’s not contemporary country-pop, nor is it part of any underground outlaw scene. Instead, Caudle’s music finds the middle-ground between the […]

She is the girl with the magical fingers, who won over a legend and has been thrilling audiences ever since with her prowess on the bass. Although beginning her musical journey on the guitar, it was someone else who actually pointed out to her that she was playing her instrument more like a bass and […]

Going to a concert to see a great band is exciting in and of itself. However, it’s even more exciting when a tour comes around with a double headliner. That’s exactly what Wavves and Best Coast are bringing with a reprise of their Summer Is Forever tour that they initially embarked upon five years ago. […]

Anyone who has followed the career of Jason Isbell – both as a member of the Drive-By Truckers and solo with the 400 Unit – would’ve been pleased to be at Austin’s ACL Live on Thursday night. With the success of his previous two albums Southeastern and Something More Than Free, Isbell has redefined himself […]

Fans of the Brown rejoiced on Friday night at the 1stBank Center in Broomfield, Colorado when Ween took to the stage for the first time since 2011.

I was fourteen when Bob Dylan joined forces with The Grateful Dead for a short six show bi-coastal tour. Suffice it to say, not only did I not attend these shows, but these juggernauts of music were, sadly, not yet on my musical radar. I was sixteen when I “got” the Grateful Dead and it […]

Alan Bennett’s mostly true story, The Lady in the Van, is a delightful, poignant exploration of humanity.

How to be Single might be mere fluff, but it’s enjoyable fluff.

[rating=8.00] Singer/songwriter Basia Bulat hasn’t garnered near enough notice on this side of our northern border, but it’s not because she’s not deserving. In her native Canada she’s gained significant airplay and even had her debut album, Oh My Darling, shortlisted for the prestigious Polaris Music Prize. Tall Tall Shadow, her third effort — and […]

[rating=8.00] L.A.’s The Record Company, established in 2011, wrote and recorded their debut album in their bass player’s living room without any expectations, save probably just making great music to share with friends and family. But after playing at house parties, local record shops and intimate clubs – being signed by a label and thrust […]

Throwing a concert on Super Bowl Sunday seemed like a ballsy move. However, Unknown Mortal Orchestra and Emo’s took that bet and were rewarded with a near-capacity crowd for the New Zealand/Portland-based rock band. Not everything went according to plan for the night though. Tour opener, the Baltimore based Lower Dens, nearly had to cut […]

Applewood Road, a folk trio comprised of Emily Barker, Amber Rubarth and Amy Speace, is serendipity at its most pure definition. The three celebrated songwriters will release their self-titled debut on Feb. 12, 2016, on digital and CD formats, as well as on 180-gram vinyl. In September 2014, the three women met at a café in East Nashville, while Barker was visiting […]

California heavy psych kings EARTHLESS have announced a string of North American tour dates that will launch directly following the band’s March 12 performance at the 2016 Levitation Chicago Festival.

Well, bad episodes of The X-Files are still better than no episodes of The X-Files.

Horror fans don’t have to go very far to find great scares. Thrills and chills are only a few clicks away.
