DAWN ACROSS AMERICA

The winter and Holiday season are not exactly prime-touring time for most bands. That’s not the case with this Dawn/Yautja tour that’s kicking off today. The thrashers had a tour kickoff show over the weekend [wish we could’ve been there, but we were helping out raising money for DJ Jonathan Toubin] and now they’ve left…

HELP OUT A FRIEND

One of the most fun nights we had this Summer was when DJ Jonathan Toubin was at the FooBar for a night of dancing and Soul Clapping and getting down. We got word late last night of a crazy accident involving a cab crashing through Toubin’s hotel room in Portland and hitting him and leaving…

WHO IS YOUR MASTER

WITH SHIRTS OFF

No band has killed it more this year than JEFF the Brotherhood [Doy] They’ve gone and left again for a little bit to play a string of shows in Hawaii for Volcom, but they’ll be back soon enough. Yesterday afternoon our buddies at NPR’s Tiny Desk posted a video of Jake and Jamin visiting and…

BABE WAVE: EPISODE TWO

DEAD AIR presents: BABE WAVE
Episode 2: Tough Luck Babe

Man, we are totally in love with this BABE WAVE deal. This week’s episode, Tough Luck Babe, is killer and strictly for the babes [meaning all the female rock and roll jams you can handle] Lauren also setup a nice Skype interview with Andrea Lukic of Nu Sensae fame. They chit and chat for a while about the roll females play in rock and roll and punk and what it’s like to be a part of that. Nothing we love more than sick girl bands. Shangri-Las to Kleenex to Kukl — girls got it going on…

HAVE IN OUR HOME

Whoa. This shit totally snuck up on us. Woods and Jovontaes and R. Stevie Moore playing together at The End next Monday? We’ll take it. Woods had a new record drop a little earlier this year from Woodsist — Sun and Shade. You can snag it here. It’s more of what you’d expect from the…

RETURN OF THE PEACH

It’s only been 7 months since Peach Kelli Pop made her first visit to The Great Nashville Country, but we think that amount of time is entirely too long. Lucky for us, she’ll be rolling through in a couple weeks with the rest of her pack to get down at The Other Basement. If you…
