SUMMARY:Ross Mathews
DESCRIPTION:This is a seated show. \nPretend it’s happy hour and you and I are sitting at the bar. I look amazing and\, I agree with you\, much thinner in person. You look good\, too. Maybe it’s the candlelight maybe it’s the booze. Either way\, let’s just go with it. Keep this all between you and me\, and do me a favor? Don’t judge me if I name drop just a little. \nTelevision personality Ross Mathews likes telling stories. And with his Hollywood experience – from interning behind the scenes at ​The Tonight Show with Jay Leno​ to judging ​RuPaul’s Drag Race​ – he has a lot to talk about. \nIn ​Name Drop\,​ Ross dishes about moments where he goes from soaring to crashing\, like that time he was invited by Barbara Walters to host ​The View​ – only to arrive on set and discover she had no idea who he was; his Christmas with the Kardashians\, which should be its own national holiday; and his talk with Omarosa on ​Celebrity Big Brother​\, which\, as it turns out\, was ​just​ the tip of the iceberg. \nFilled with tales ranging from the horrifying to the hilarious – and with just the right “Rossipies” and cocktails to go along with them – ​Name Drop​ is every pop culture lover’s dream come true. \nAnd now\, Name Drop is more even more than a book – it’s an international tour where Ross brings these stories to life on stage\, plays games with the audience and so much more. \nLinks: Website | Facebook | Twitter | Instagram \n\n\n	Related

SUMMARY:Abbey Road LIVE!
DESCRIPTION:“one of the world’s premier Beatles cover bands”\n-US News and World Report \n“unquestionably expert at what they do”\n-Indyweek \nSince 2002\, Abbey Road LIVE! has been rocking the music of The Beatles. Initially a tribute to the monumental “Abbey Road” album\, the band has expanded its repertoire to include more than 150 Beatles tunes\, from all eras of the Fab Four’s career. \nAbbey Road LIVE! is not your typical Beatle look-alike tribute act; don’t expect mop-top haircuts and fake British accents. Rather\, an Abbey Road LIVE! show is about bringing to life some of the more mature and complex Beatles material in a raw & spirited fashion\, while remaining true to the original recordings. Combining attention to detail with a creative exuberance\, the band always delights its audiences with its diverse repertoire of hits and more obscure favorites. \nA splendid time is guaranteed for all! \n\n\n	Related

SUMMARY:Beach Fossils
DESCRIPTION:The long-awaited return of Brooklyn’s Beach Fossils\, Somersault showcases a band in bloom. Charting into new musical territory with a refined songwriting style\, it’s an album that captures flashes of life in New York grounded in personal experience. \nThe band’s self-titled 2010 debut established a sound that was both minimal and enveloping. With Somersault\, the group’s first release since 2013’s Clash the Truth\, Beach Fossils have channeled years of experimentation into expansion and reinvention. Augmented with more complex instrumentation\, including string arrangements\, piano\, harpsichord\, flute\, and sax\, the new songs offer multi-layered pop guided by sharp\, poignant\, and honest lyrics. \nAs the band’s first release on Dustin Payseur’s new label Bayonet Records\, which he co-owns with wife Kate Garcia-the group made the most of their newfound independence\, investing ample time in expanding its range both musically and lyrically. While Payseur handled the bulk of the songwriting duties in the past\, Somersault is a true collaboration between the founding member and bandmates\, Jack Doyle Smith and Tommy Davidson. The new songs speak to a more fluid\, eclectic sound\, filled with lush compositions formed by studio experiments and sam-pling of the band’s own recordings. \nOrchestral pop gem “Saint Ivy” shines with plucked strings\, buoyant basslines and a propulsive\, wayward\, guitar. “Tangerine\,” a driving\, tightly wound melody\, rushes forward and briefly leaves the ground due to the gossamer guest vocals of Slowdive’s Rachel Goswell. The effervescent “Rise\,” which hinges on the spoken word of Gavin Mays (Cities Aviv) discussing a failed rela-tionship\, hangs\, like many recent breakups\, in a sense of suspension. The cloudy\, wistful “Soci-al Jetlag\,” bustling with samples of crowded streets\, features the type of candid\, off-the-cuff lyr-ics that make the entire effort immediately illuminating. \nRecorded at multiple studios across New York City\, a cabin in upstate New York\, and even Los Angeles (including the home studio of Jonathan Rado of Foxygen\, who helped engineer part of the album)\, Somersault turns the newfound chemistry between the trio into a sonic tapestry. Due to the variety of sessions and recording locations\, the album was a Frankenstein-like series of reworking and reimagining songs. As the group pieced together different parts in a cycle of creation and cooption\, and built out more elaborate songs track by track\, the process became more reminiscent of a record created via sampling and arranging than one built by simply grind-ing out riffs. The long-simmering album\, filled with breezy music both melancholic and uplifting\, sees the band channeling their voices and honing their craft. \nFlowing between shimmering compositions and immersive soundscapes\, Somersault evokes the laid-back mood of a warm\, breezy city night\, the air crackling with humidity and excitement. These songs pulse and pull\, capturing a blend of promise and heartache. It’s beautiful and lay-ered\, a refined\, sweeping creation that threads together numerous styles\, textures\, and themes into a refreshing\, singular vision. \nLinks: Website | Facebook | Twitter | Instagram | Spotify \n\n\n	Related

SUMMARY:Jawbox
DESCRIPTION:Jawbox: An Impartial Overview \nJ. Robbins: voice\, guitar\nBill Barbot: guitar\, voice\nKim Coletta: bass guitar\nZach Barocas: drum kit \nJawbox was formed in Washington\, DC in 1989 by J. Robbins\, bassist Kim Coletta\, and original drummer Adam Wade. The group released their debut 7″ in 1990 on their own DeSoto label. \nGrippe\, released on Dischord Records in 1991\, was Jawbox’s first full-length outing. That year saw second guitarist/singer Bill Barbot join the line-up in time to create a denser sound for 1992’s Novelty\, also released on Dischord. \nZach Barocas assumed drumming duties in April ’92\, ushering in a new era for the group with his contributions to the rhythm section and the band’s songwriting\, as first exhibited on 1994’s For Your Own Special Sweetheart. \nTours of all sizes and durations throughout Europe and the U.S. were part and parcel of Jawbox’s routine back then. Equally explosive at Red Rocks or a Roman squat\, they were in all cases a galvanized\, well-oiled band. \nThey released their last album\, the self-titled Jawbox LP\, in 1996\, and after another year of touring\, broke up in 1997. Although Atlantic Records released the last two albums\, Dischord has since made all of the band’s full-lengths available.\nThe group reunited briefly in 2009 for an appearance on Late Night with Jimmy Fallon. The performance was a one-off\, and there was no subsequent talk of any other shows of any kind for years. \nIn early 2017\, however\, Zach contacted his former bandmates to see what they thought about playing some shows. The resulting conversations were at first casual\, but eventually moved the band to action\, and by June they began rehearsing for the shows that now comprise An Impartial Overview. \nIt’s been an exciting time\, reacquainting not only with the music but also with each other. However much the members of Jawbox have played elsewhere over the years\, there is no doubt that the chemistry and energy they bring to this band remains unique for each of them. \nThe sets will draw from most of their discography with an emphasis on the Robbins/Coletta/Barbot/Barocas recordings\, especially For Your Own Special Sweetheart and Jawbox\, which albums mark the peak of their creative and performative time together. Longtime fans will be in familiar territory: Coletta’s irrepressible presence; Robbins’s heartfelt guitar and vocal harmonic roar; Barbot’s razor-sharp vocal and guitar challenge and complement; and Barocas’s exacting flail and crash continue to coalesce as they always have\, as a single functioning musical unit. \nLinks: Website | Facebook | Twitter | Instagram | Bandcamp \n\n\n	Related

SUMMARY:Yonder Mountain String Band / The Travelin’ McCourys
DESCRIPTION:Yonder Mountain String Band \nFor the past 20 years\, Yonder Mountain String Band has redefined bluegrass music\, expanding the traditional acoustic genre beyond its previously established boundaries by steadily pushing the envelope into the realms of rock n’ roll and improvisation. YMSB-guitarist Adam Aijala\, bassist Ben Kaufmann\, banjo player Dave Johnston\, Jacob Joliff on mandolin and violinist Allie Kral-has always played music of their own design\, in the process attracting a devout following of fans that often resembles a tight-knit family on an epic musical journey as Yonder traverses the country with an ambitious tour schedule. Yonder is a quintessential ensemble honing its craft night after night on the road\, and the fans are there to experience it in real time. The result is music that doesn’t stand still\, it’s always progressing and breaking unprecedented ground. \nLinks: Website | Facebook | Twitter | Instagram | Spotify | Apple Music \n\nThe Travelin’ McCourys \nFrom a source deep\, abundant\, and pure the river flows.  It’s there on the map\, marking place and time. Yet\, the river changes as it remains a constant\, carving away at the edges\, making new pathways\, gaining strength as it progresses forward.  The Travelin’ McCourys are that river. \nThe McCoury brothers- Ronnie (mandolin) and Rob (banjo) – were born into the bluegrass tradition.  Talk about a source abundant and pure: their father\, Del\, is among the most influential and successful musicians in the history of the genre.  Years on the road with Dad in the Del McCoury Band honed their knife-edge chops\, and encouraged the duo to imagine how traditional bluegrass could cut innovative pathways into 21st century music. \n“If you put your mind\, your skills\, and your ability to it\, I think you can make just about anything work on bluegrass instruments\,” says Ronnie.  “That’s a really fun part of this- figuring the new stuff out and surprising the audience.” \nWith fiddler Jason Carter\, bassist Alan Bartram\, and latest recruit Cody Kilby on guitar\, they assembled a group that could take what they had in their DNA\, take what traditions they learned and heard\, and push the music forward.  In fact\, the band became the only group to have each of its members recognized with an International Bluegrass Music Association Award for their instrument at least once. There were peers\, too\, that could see bluegrass as both historic and progressive.  Rock and Roll Hall of Fame inductees The Allman Brothers Band\, improv-rock kings Phish\, and jamband contemporary Keller Williams were just a few that formed a mutual admiration society with the ensemble. \nLinks: Website | Facebook | Twitter | Instagram | Spotify | Apple Music \n\n\n	Related

SUMMARY:Too Many Zooz
DESCRIPTION:The curious thing about being a fan of brasshouse? You’re pretty much talking about being into one solitary but extremely unforgettable band: the amusingly monikered Too Many Zooz. \nThe musical style was “branded” by drummer King of Sludge\, who recognized that there was no worthy existing classification for the New York trio\, whose other two members are the equally unclassifiable Leo P (saxophone) and Matt Doe (trumpet). \n“Brasshouse is a high energy musical conversation\,” Matt insists. “Though I honestly don’t think there is a good way to describe it in words. It’s about many different feelings and sounds and emotions.” \nOr as KOS so decisively puts it\, “I don’t really care about what’s happening in music — I just make art that I enjoy making.” \nIt’s exactly this indifference to convention and trend that has garnered Too Many Zooz a fanbase that KOS describes as “wide-ranging and fanatical.” One of those fans? In 2016\, Beyonce asked them to perform with her at the Billboard Music Awards…and it’s quite possible they got just as much attention as did she. \nAfter two years\, a gazillion live performances and four EPs\, their debut album Subway Gawdz (an unsubtle reference to their birth in the underground stations of NYC)\, was released to enthusiastic acclaim in 2016. Its sound was truly like nothing else\, with inescapable grooves that take in dub\, soul\, funk and ska\, utterly exhilarating horn blasts that shoot right up your spine\, and\, of course\, equal doses of fun and attitude. \nAnd right now\, TMZ are riding higher than ever\, surely poised for the leap into genuinely widespread international recognition that was likley inevitable since they first set foot in an NYC subway station. Indeed\, following a deal with Ministry of Sound\, their single “Warriors” racked up major play on Radio One (if you think you haven’t heard it\, when you hear it\, you’ll quickly realize you already have)\, followed by high-profile remixes from the likes of Armand Van Helden and KDA. \nThen\, UK sensation Jess Glynne penned lyrics and added vocals to morph the song into “So Real (Warriors)\,” which has been generating massive buzz while climbing the European charts. In the meanwhile\, a live video for “Car Alarm” has furtively racked up more than 500K views in one week. \nBut surely signaling their mainstream “arrival”? A Canadian KFC commercial featured the band and their songs — so don’t be surprised if listening to their music suddenly makes you hungry. \nThough they’ve also been up to more serious matters. Leo\, in fact\, was asked to play at the BBC Proms Charles Mingus tribute at a sold-out Royal Albert Hall in August 2017 — certainly no small honor. \nYet for all this\, the forward plan for Too Many Zooz\, is\, as ever\, constant touring. The reason is simple: it’s their outrageous\, electrifying live performances that consistently continue to add the numbers to their growing worldwide legion of fans. Autumn 2018 will take them coast to coast\, from Seattle to Houston to Philadelphia\, and across Europe\, with stops in Krakow\, Strasbourg and Marseille\, amongst others. \n“I don’t think there’s any recording that can do a live performance justice\,” reckons Matt. “You’ll see people of all different colors\, creeds\, genders\, ages\, sexuality at our shows. I really can’t find a constant between them…besides liking our music — haha.” \nBut for everything that’s happened in the last couple of years\, the trio aren’t actually all that surprised by their success. \nLinks: Website | Facebook | Twitter | Instagram | SoundCloud | Spotify \n\n\n	Related

SUMMARY:Marco Benevento
DESCRIPTION:It’s impossible not to hear freedom and excitement coursing through the veins of Marco Benevento’s new studio album\, ‘Let It Slide.’ Produced by Leon Michels (The Arcs\, Lee Fields)\, the record introduces a gritty\, soulful edge to Benevento’s brand of high-octane keyboard wizardry-an uptempo\, uplifting sound he playfully describes as “hot dance piano rock.” For all Benevento’s virtuosity on the keys though\, the songs here are driven primarily by intoxicating grooves\, with spare drums and minimalist bass lines underpinning infectious\, intentionally lo-fi vocal hooks. The resulting vibe is a timeless one\, filtering elements of vintage R&B and soul through modern indie rock and pop sensibilities and peppering it with the kind of adventurous improvisation that Benevento’s come to be celebrated for worldwide. \nAcceptance is a recurring theme on the record\, and Benevento’s songs often find themselves recognizing that contentment can come only once you’ve freed yourself from the chains of desire and regret. Upon close listen\, one can find Benevento’s own personal philosophies subconsciously bubbling up throughout the songs. “You’ll feel better\, I’ll just say / When you finally let it go\,” he sings on the funky “Say It’s All The Same\,” which features vocal contributions from bandmate Karina Rykman. The hazy “Solid Gold” celebrates the simple joy of being in the moment with someone you love\, while the Lennon-esque “Lorraine” (co-written with Simone Felice) grapples with loss and change\, and the anthemic “Send It On A Rocket” contemplates loneliness and connection. \nDubbed “one of the most talented keys players of our time” by CBS Radio\, Benevento’s released six critically acclaimed solo albums over the last decade\, performed everywhere from Carnegie Hall and Newport Jazz to Lollapalooza and Bonnaroo\, and worked in the studio and on the road with the likes of Richard Swift (The Shins\, The Arcs)\, Jon Brion (Spoon\, Aimee Mann)\, A.C. Newman (The New Pornographers)\, and Simone Felice (The Felice Brothers\, The Lumineers) among others. “It’s safe to say that no one sees the keyboard quite like Marco Benevento’s genre-blind mashup of indie rock\, jazz and skewed improvisation\,” the LA Times raved\, while NPR said he combines “the thrust of rock\, the questing of jazz and the experimental ecstasy of jam\,” and Rolling Stone praised “the textures and colors available in his keyboards and arsenal of manipulated pedals and effects\,” along with his “deceptively rich\, catchy melodies and straight-ahead grooves.” \nLinks: Website | Facebook | Twitter | Instagram \n\n\n	Related

SUMMARY:Cracker and Camper Van Beethoven
DESCRIPTION:Cracker’s tenth and most recent studio effort\, the double-album\, Berkeley To Bakersfield\, finds this uniquely American band traversing two different sides of the California landscape — the northern Bay area and further down-state in Bakersfield. \nDespite being less than a five-hour drive from city to city\, musically\, these two regions couldn’t be further apart from one another. In the late ’70s and ’80s a harder-edged style of rock music emerged from the Bay area\, while Bakersfield is renowned for its own iconic twangy country music popularized\, most famously\, by Buck Owens and Merle Haggard in the ’60s and ’70s. Yet despite these differences\, they are both elements that Cracker’s two cofounders\, David Lowery and Johnny Hickman\, have embraced to some degree on nearly every one of their studio albums over the last two decades. On Berkeley To Bakersfield\, however\, instead of integrating these two genres together within one disc\, they’ve neatly compartmentalized them onto their own respective regionally-titled LPs. \nAs Lowery explains\, “On the Berkeley disc the band is the original Cracker lineup — Davey Faragher\, Michael Urbano\, Johnny and myself. This is the first time this lineup has recorded together in almost 20 years. We began recording this album at East Bay Recorders in Berkeley\, CA. For this reason we chose to stylistically focus this disc on the music we most associate with the East Bay: Punk and Garage with some funky undertones. To further match our sense of place we often took an overtly political tone in the lyrics.” \n“This Bakersfield disc represents the ‘California country’ side of the band. Throughout the band’s 24-year history we’ve dabbled in Country and Americana but this time we wanted to pay homage to the particular strain of Country and Country-Rock music that emerges from the inland valleys of California.” \nCracker has been described as a lot of things over the years: alt-rock\, Americana\, insurgent-country\, and have even had the terms punk and classic-rock thrown at them. But more than anything Cracker are survivors. Cofounders Lowery and Hickman have been at it for a quarter of a century — amassing ten studio albums\, multiple gold records\, thousands of live performances\, hit songs that are still in current radio rotation around the globe (“Low\,” “Euro-Trash Girl\,” “Get Off This” and “Turn On\, Tune In\, Drop Out With Me” to name just a few)\, and a worldwide fan base — that despite the major sea-changes within the music industry — continues to grow each year. \nLinks: Website | Facebook | Spotify | YouTube \n\nCamper Van Beethoven Links: Website | Facebook | Spotify | YouTube \n\n\n	Related

SUMMARY:Cosmic Charlie – High Energy Grateful Dead from Athens\, GA
DESCRIPTION:“Cosmic Charlie really is a great band – these guys do this music the way it should be done: having the conversation in their own voices.”\n-David Gans\, Grateful Dead archivist \n———————–\nCosmic Charlie was born in the musical Mecca of Athens\, Georgia. From its summer 1999 inception\, the band swiftly cemented its reputation as a band that puts a unique and personal twist on the Grateful Dead catalogue\, a Dead cover band for folks that are ambivalent about Dead cover bands. Rather than mimicking the Dead exactly\, Cosmic Charlie chooses to tap into the Dead’s energy and style as a foundation on which to build. The result is healthy balance of creativity and tradition\, and both the band and its audience are taken to that familiar edge with the sense that\, music is actually being MADE here tonight. \nMoving and shaking even the most skeptical of Deadheads\, Cosmic Charlie storms into a town and plays with an energy that eludes other bands\, an energy that sometimes eluded the Dead themselves. Those precious moments during Dead jams when the synchronicity is there and all is right with the world\, these are moments that Cosmic Charlie relishes and feverishly welcomes with open arms. Clearly\, Cosmic Charlie’s audiences are also eager to arrive at those moments\, and together with the band\, they have indulged in many memorable evenings. \nLinks: Website | Facebook \n\n\n	Related

SUMMARY:La Dispute
DESCRIPTION:La Dispute has never been a band prone to settling. The five-piece from Grand Rapids\, Michigan\, is responsible for some of the most uncompromising\, experimental hardcore music of the last decade. From their 2008 debut (in their current formation) Somewhere at the Bottom of the River Between Vega and Altair\, to 2011’s Wildlife\, to 2015’s Rooms of the House\, La Dispute have continually pushed themselves to find new ways to portray some of the most difficult and universally affecting subject matters. Casting a wide stylistic net that includes – but isn’t limited to – jazz\, blues\, spoken word\, screamo and prog rock\, La Dispute have developed a sound that\, while constantly evolving\, is unmistakably theirs.  \nA lot of structural change has taken place around the band since Rooms of the House that has forced them to adapt. La Dispute has always kept a tight grip on their own reins. Their first two records came out on Californian independent label No Sleep – trusted home to many of the bands they cut their teeth alongside – while Rooms of the House was released through their own label\, a subsidiary of Vagrant records. After Vagrant was bought out by BMG in 2014\, the band found themselves looking for a new home\, ultimately finding one in Epitaph. Their fourth full-length\, Panorama\, is the first fruit of this new relationship.  \nRecorded between November 2017 and August 2018\, Panorama is in many ways a continuation on a theme. It’s a highly ambitious and deeply affecting body of work that filters narrative storytelling through a personal lens\, like a set of Joan Didion essays set to music. It’s heavier and weirder than previous efforts\, taking the intensity of Wildlife and the patience of Rooms of the House and using them as pillars upon which to build something new. And\, in doing so\, they have broken through their own ceiling and set a new one.  \nPanorama has not been without its challenges\, both creatively and practically. Only three members were living in Michigan when they started writing\, with drummer Bradley Vander Lugt now living in Australia. Out of necessity\, the incubation period for ideas began with back and forth over the internet\, but the bulk of the writing had to be done together in their hometown of Grand Rapids. So\, finding a time when Brad could make the trip with his family\, they blocked three months off to write and rented a studio space to work 9-5 through the week. For over two months\, they worked in separate rooms on individual tracks based on a rough concept and outline that Jordan had put together. They had around seven tracks finished when they came to the decision that no one was happy with them. With only the weeks before Brad was due to fly back to Australia left to work with\, they scrapped everything and started all over again. \n“In general\, I think working apart when we were all there together was a waste\, but I think we had it in our heads that there was a direction we should be going. That we needed to pick up where the last record left off and push further in the direction of quieter\, more structured songs\, but that never felt right\,” Jordan says in retrospect. “Feels a bit silly to say\, but when we started over we all more or less just went by instinct. What happened felt right\, and that’s really where the record started.” \nLinks: Website | Facebook | Twitter | Instagram \n\n\n	Related

SUMMARY:Office Hours
DESCRIPTION:Office Hours is a dance party and live video performance from a collective of disc-jockeys\, wave technicians and visual artists at UNC-Chapel Hill.  \n10% of proceeds will benefit the Compass Center. \nStarting as the final assignment for an independent study within UNC’s Media and Journalism school\, this experimental audio-visual performance was the brainchild of producer Nicholas Byrne. Bridging his early musical background with professional experience as a video editor for record labels\, Nicholas envisioned a live show in which musical and visual elements were crafted side-by-side\, complementing and reacting to each other for a more holistic sensory experience.  \nArtists Scott Diekema\, Elinor Walker\, and Webb Hinton joined Nicholas to develop Office Hours’ unique visual style. Scott\, Nicholas\, and fellow VJs John Vance and Maxwell Bryn use video synthesizers to mix and distort the show’s live camera feeds with VHS and digital animations. Audio reactive analog visuals are painted onto a network of CRT televisions that invite audience participation. The team’s expertise in animation\, live video software\, and stage design allow for Office Hours to experiment with emerging and legacy technologies simultaneously. \nCollaborators include Elinor Walker\, Amy Vaughn\, Roi Plotkin\, James Creissen\, Michael Gu\, Maxwell Bryn\, John Vance\, Austin Robichaud\, Gentry Fitch\, Karma\, J Dasani\, and Funeral. \nBy blurring audio-visual boundaries\, Office Hours aims to create a fun and immersive concert experience.  \nIf you have any questions\, just come to Office Hours. \nLine-up: \n9:30-10:15: DJ New Camper\n10:15-11:00: Pixel Princess\n11:00-11:45: DJ Tex\n11:45-12:30: Amy Daytona + DJ River Rat\n12:30-1:15: ARTS+CRAFTS\n1:15-2:00: DJ Chooch \n\nInstagram: @officehours.tv \n\n\n	Related

SUMMARY:Crumb
DESCRIPTION:AdHoc Presents \nCrumb is the collaboration of Brooklyn-based musicians Lila Ramani (guitar\, vocals)\, Brian Aronow (synth\, keys\, sax)\, Jesse Brotter (bass)\, and Jonathan Gilad (drums). The friends came together in 2016 with the goal of developing and recording a collection of songs Ramani had written in high school and college\, the work ultimately resulting in the band’s first two EPs\, 2016’s “Crumb” and 2017’s “Locket.” Encouraged by the warm reception online and at shows\, the band evolved into a full time touring and recording project. \nIn June 2019\, Crumb will release Jinx\, their first full-length album and best distillation to date of their singular blend of psych-rock and jazz. On Jinx\, Ramani continues to helm the songwriting\, with Aronow\, Brotter\, and Gilad each bringing distinctive ideas to match her ethereal\, intimate vocals and luminous guitar lines. Informed by two years of nearly non-stop touring\, the songs sweep and swell to capture the beguiling live spirit of Crumb shows\, while taking listeners one step further down the band’s dizzying\, hypnotic path. \nCrumb has partnered with PLUS1 so that $1 from each ticket sold will go to Partners In Health and their work saving lives\, revitalizing communities\, and transforming global health\, and to the Florence Project and their work providing direct legal and social services for detained adults and children under threat of deportation. \nLinks: Website | Facebook | Twitter | Instagram \n\n\n	Related

SUMMARY:Gaelic Storm
DESCRIPTION:This is a seated show. \nIt’s hard to imagine a band just coming into their own after 20 years of success\, but that’s exactly what makes a true anomaly. This multi-national\, Celtic juggernaut grows stronger with each live performance\, and as you can imagine\, after two decades and over 2000 shows\, it is a true force to be reckoned with. With their latest release\, Go Climb a Tree\, their music has never sounded more representative of themselves as musicians and as live performers. \nThe band attributes their continued success to their fanatic audience\, and it’s a well-diversified crowd for sure. The country-music folks adore the storytelling\, the bluegrass-heads love the instrumentals\, Celtic fans love their devotion to tradition\, and the rockers simply relish the passion they play their instruments with. Each band member\, in their own way\, expresses a deep gratitude for their fans\, but it’s best summed up in the words of Patrick Murphy: “The fans are the ones that have given us this life. We’re here for them.” \nOn Go Climb a Tree\, co-founders of Gaelic Storm\, Steve Twigger and Patrick Murphy\, along with longtime friend and co-writer Steve Wehmever\, are again at the helm of song-writing duties. The album has everything-party drinking songs  (“The Beer Song”)\, patriotic anthems (“Green\, White and Orange”)\, beautiful folk songs (“Monday Morning Girl”)\, spritely instrumentals “”The Night of Tomfoolery”)\, perfectly poppy songs (“Shine On”)\, and even a raucous pirate song (“Shanghai Kelly”). When speaking of the overall concept of the album\, Patrick Murphy gives some insight: “With all the craziness and division in the world\, we wanted to make an album about ‘contemplative escapism.’ Go Climb a Tree certainly isn’t about dropping out of the conversation\, it’s just about taking a short hiatus to recharge the batteries before you take on the world again.” \nGaelic Storm takes a true blue-collar\, hard-nose approach to touring\, consistently traveling the US and internationally over 200 days a year\, forging a unique path in the Celtic music world. “You have to see us live. We are the true working-mans’ band\,” says Ryan Lacey\, who joined the lineup in 2003. “We still\, and most likely always will\, tour most of the year\, and that’s how we constantly hone our craft.” \nThe dedication to live shows date all the way back to the mid-1990s\, when Gaelic Storm kicked off its career as a pub band in Santa Monica\, California. Due to their discovery at the pub\, by the end of the decade\, the musicians had appeared in the blockbuster film Titanic (where they performed “Irish Party in Third Class”). This laid the groundwork for a career that would eventually find them topping the Billboard World Chart six times\, making appearances at mainstream music festivals\, and regularly headlining the largest Irish Festivals across the country\, all the while gaining a reputation as a genre-bending Irish rock band\, whose songs mix Celtic traditions with something uniquely creative. \nLooking to the future\, Gaelic Storm is excited about what lies ahead. They’ve added a new fiddle player\, Katie Grennen\, and she has affectionately become the “purple squirrel” of the band\, meaning she is the perfect new addition. Pete Purvis who joined the band in 2005 said\, “With the addition of Katie\, the band has never sounded better\, we’re gelling on a whole new level\, and the idea of sharing these new songs with our fans is exciting!” \nLinks: Website | Facebook | Twitter | Instagram | YouTube \n\n\n	Related

SUMMARY:Kikagaku Moyo
DESCRIPTION:“Masana” is a fictional word created by Kikagaku Moyo to express a Utopian feeling; an existence where everything can interact harmoniously and offer inspiration and understanding. Their fourth album Masana Temples radiates this vision\, architecting a vibrating world that isn’t confined to the known limits of what came before it. \nKikagaku Moyo progressed from early days in Tokyo’s experimental scene to traveling the world with their mind-bending sounds\, exploring different facets of psychedelia on each new release and blowing minds with a live show that was just as searching as their records. The shifting dimensions of Masana Temples are informed by various experiences the band had with traveling through life together\, ranging from the months spent on tour to making a pilgrimage to Lisbon to record the album with jazz musician Bruno Pernadas. The songs came together in the wake of the band breaking up the communal house most of them had shared in Tokyo\, with some members relocating to Amsterdam\, and others moving to different parts of Japan. Transitioning from being based in the scene they had roots in to scattering around various locales made for an even more enhanced understanding of how mystically connected the sum of their parts were when the band reunited to record new material. The music is the product of time spent in motion and all of the bending mindsets that come with it. \nThe band sought out Pernadas both out of admiration for his music and in an intentional move to work with a producer who came from a wildly different background. With Masana Temples\, the band wanted to challenge their own concepts of what psychedelic music could be. Elements of both the attentive folk and wild-eyed rocking sides of the band are still intact throughout Masana Temples\, but they’re sharper and more defined. Without sacrificing any of their experimental impulses\, songs are more composed and cohesive. Pernadas’ bright production meets with nearly telepathically locked-in performances\, on both lazy cloud-like jaunts like “Nazo Nazo” or fuzzed-out expeditions like lead single “Gatherings”. Drummer/vocalist Go Kurosawa\, guitarist/vocalist Tomo Katsurada\, bassist Kotsuguy\, sitar and keyboard player Ryu Kurosawa and guitarist Daoud Popal Akira act as a unit\, with an intuitive attention to space and dynamics that could only come from years of playing together in every imaginable setting. \nMore than the literal interpretation of being on a journey\, the album’s always changing sonic panorama reflects the spiritual connection of the band moving through this all together. Life for a traveling band is a series of constant metamorphoses\, with languages\, cultures\, climates and vibes changing with each new town. The only constant for Kikagaku Moyo throughout their travels were the five band members always together moving through it all\, but each of them taking everything in from very different perspectives. Inspecting the harmonies and disparities between these perspectives\, the group reflects the emotional impact of their nomadic paths. \nComing together in a way more deliberate than the beautifully floating improvisations of their Stone Garden EP or the sometimes hushed dreamstate of 2016 album House In The Tall Grass\, Masana Temples is focused and clear in its vision in a way that feels unlike any of Kikagaku Moyo’s earlier sounds. \nLinks: Website | Facebook| Bandcamp \n\n\n	Related

SUMMARY:The Motet: Speed of Light Tour
DESCRIPTION:Throughout history\, unity starts on the dancefloor. From ancient tribal cultures to neon night clubs\, beats bring bodies together. Once grinding and grooving in unison\, the movement generates friction\, sparks\, and light. That might just be the purest form of energy on the planet. The Motet harness such energy on their ninth full-length\, Death or Devotion. In fact\, the Denver septet-Dave Watts [drums]\, Joey Porter [keys]\, Garrett Sayers [bass]\, Ryan Jalbert [guitar]\, Lyle Divinsky [vocals]\, Drew Sayers [sax]\, and Parris Fleming [trumpet]-encode a message in their energetic mélange of boisterous badass funk\, swaggering soul\, and thought-provoking pop. \nIn the process\, they challenge convention and arrive with a dynamic\, diverse\, and definitive statement. \n“The essence is always going to be the groove\, but we wanted to expand the idea of what a funk album could be\,” says Lyle. “Of course\, you want a driving backbeat. However\, with the division that’s going on in this country and the world\, I think it’s every artist’s responsibility to create a conversation. That conversation doesn’t have to be political either. It can be about love or an introspective journey. I think the commentary should be on what it’s like to be alive today. By drawing on funk\, we create a fun\, palatable musical vehicle for the message to go down. Our goal is for you to recognize we’re all dancing on the same dance floor-even though our steps may look a little different.” \nDeath or Devotion earmarks an important point in the band’s own journey. Since emerging in 1998\, the boys have cooked up eight full-length albums and entranced countless crowds. 2016’s Totem saw them welcome Lyle behind the mic and Drew on sax. Shortly after\, they kicked off what has become an annual tradition by selling out the legendary Red Rocks Amphitheater for the first time. “It was my six-month anniversary and first show for a hometown crowd\,” recalls Lyle. “I’ve got 10\,000 people looking at me like\, ‘Who the hell is that?’\,” he laughs. \nThat night would be chronicled on the fan favorite Live at Red Rocks. In the meantime\, the group maintained a prolific pace of 100 shows per year in support of Totem. Along the way\, The Motet started recording Death or Devotion during intermittent sessions at Scanhope Sound in 2017. \nFor the first time\, Lyle\, Drew\, and Parris (who joined in 2018) worked on a Motet record together from start-to-finish. \n“On Totem\, the train was already moving\, and I was just a train hopper\,” says Lyle.\n“Drew\, Parris\, and I came onboard within the same year. Now\, we’re all bringing our pieces to the puzzle. For me\, I brought that R&B style. Funk is the common ground\, but the music is a result of different inspirations: namely Drew’s hip-hop and reggae knowledge\, Ryan’s psychedelic jamming\, Dave with the worldbeat\, Joey with his encyclopedic understanding of punk\, and Garrett being the best bass player to exist. We found a really cool balance between the funkiness and songs that challenge your emotional headspace more than typical pop.” \nThe Motet Links: Website | Facebook | Twitter | Instagram | SoundCloud | Spotify | YouTube \nMellow Swells Links: Website | Instagram \n\n\n	Related

SUMMARY:RIDE
DESCRIPTION:Andy Bell\, Mark Gardener\, Loz Colbert and Steve Queralt formed Ride in Oxford in 1988. A defining act of the shoegaze scene and signed to Creation Records in 1989\, they went on to release four albums: ‘Nowhere\,’ ‘Going Blank Again\,’ ‘Carnival of Light’ and ‘Tarantula.’ \nAfter a lengthy hiatus\, Ride reformed in 2014. Comprised of Andy Bell\, Mark Gardener\, Loz Colbert\, and Steve Queralt\, the band sold out headline tours around the world to a plethora of critical acclaim\, as well as show stopping turns at festivals including Coachella\, Primavera and Field Day. \nProduced by Erol Alkan\, new album ‘Weather Diaries’ is packed with all the classic elements that made Ride one of the defining bands of the early ’90s. Trembling distortion\, beautiful harmonies\, pounding rhythms\, shimmering soundscapes and great songwriting all combine to make an album that’s ambitious in scope\, timeless and thoroughly addictive. The album is out now through Wichita Recordings and sees the band reunited with label co-founders Dick Green and Mark Bowen\, who worked with Ride during the band’s early years on Creation Records. It also brings the band back together with mixer Alan Moulder (Arctic Monkeys\, Smashing Pumpkins\, The Killers) who mixed their seminal 1990 album ‘Nowhere’ and produced it’s follow up ‘Going Blank Again.’ \nLinks: Website | Facebook | Twitter | Instagram | Spotify \n\n\n	Related

SUMMARY:Whitney
DESCRIPTION:Whitney make casually melancholic music that combines the wounded drawl of Townes Van Zandt\, the rambunctious energy of Jim Ford\, the stoned affability of Bobby Charles\, the American otherworldliness of The Band\, and the slack groove of early Pavement. Their debut\, Light Upon the Lake\, is due in June on Secretly Canadian\, and it marks the culmination of a short\, but incredibly intense\, creative period for the band. To say that Whitney is more than the sum of its parts would be a criminal understatement. Formed from the core of guitarist Max Kakacek and singing drummer Julien Ehrlich\, the band itself is something bigger\, something visionary\, something neither of them could have accomplished alone. The band itself is something bigger\, something visionary\, something neither of them could have accomplished alone. \nEhrlich had been a member of Unknown Mortal Orchestra\, but left to play drums for the Smith Westerns\, where he met guitarist Kakacek. That group burned brightly but briefly\, disbanding in 2014 and leaving its members adrift. Brief solo careers and side-projects abounded\, but nothing clicked. Making everything seem all the more fraught: both of them were going through especially painful breakups almost simultaneously\, the kind that inspire a million songs\, and they emerged emotionally bruised and lonelier than ever. \nWhitney was born from a series of laidback early-morning songwriting sessions during one of the harshest winters in Chicago history\, after Ehrlich and Kakacek reconnected – first as roommates splitting rent in a small Chicago apartment and later as musical collaborators passing the guitar and the lyrics sheet back and forth. “We approached it as just a fun thing to do. We never wanted to force ourselves to write a song. It just happened very organically. And we were smiling the whole time\, even though some of the songs are pretty sad.” The duo wrote frankly about the break-ups they were enduring and the breakdowns they were trying to avoid. Each served as the other’s most brutal critic and most sympathetic confessor\, a sounding board for the hard truths that were finding their way into new songs like “No Woman” and “Follow\,” a eulogy for Ehrlich’s grandfather. \nIn exorcising their demons they conjured something else\, something much more benign-a third presence\, another personality in the music\, which they gave the name Whitney. They left it singular to emphasize its isolation and loneliness. Says Kakacek\, “We were both writing as this one character\, and whenever we were stuck\, we’d ask\, ‘What would Whitney do in this situation?’ We personified the band name into this person\, and that helped a lot. We wrote the record as though one person were playing everything. We purposefully didn’t add a lot of parts and didn’t bother making everything perfect\, because the character we had in mind wouldn’t do that.” \nIn those imperfections lies the music’s humanity. Whilst they demoed and toured the new songs\, they became more aware of the perfect imperfections of the songs\, and needing to strike the right balance\, they eventually made the trek out to California\, where they recorded with Foxygen frontman and longtime friend\, Jonathan Rado. They slept in tents in Rado’s backyard\, ate the same breakfast every morning at the same diner in the remote\, desolate and completely un-rock n roll San Fernando Valley\, whilst they dreamt of Laurel Canyon\, or maybe The Band’s hideout in Malibu\, or Neil Young’s ranch in Topanga Canyon. \nLinks: Facebook | Twitter | Instagram \n\n\n	Related

SUMMARY:Tinariwen
DESCRIPTION:The new album by Tinariwen could well have been called Exile on Main Street.  But other people have already thought of that. It also could have been called A la recherché du pays perdu (‘Remembrance of a lost country’). Except that would have been a tad Proustian for musicians who grew up pretty much between a rock and a sand dune\, in the midst of their goat herds and camel caravans. But the idea is apt. As is the painful paradox\, if you consider that while Tinariwen were busy criss-crossing the globe on their recent triumphant tours (160 concerts played in the past three years)\, expanding their audience on all five continents\, becoming one of the latest musical phenomena of truly universal calibre\, the frontiers that encircle their desert home were closing down and double-locking\, forcing them into exile to record this their 8th album.  \nOver the past five years\, their beloved homeland in the Adrar des Ifoghas\, a Saharan mountain range that straddles the border between north-eastern Mali and southern Algeria has\, in effect\, been transformed into a conflict zone\, a place where nobody can venture without putting themselves in danger and where war lords devoted either to jihad or trafficking (sometimes both at the same time)\, have put any activity that contradicts their beliefs or escapes their control in jeopardy. Even though the 12 songs on this new record evoke those cherished deserts of home\, they were recorded a long way away from them. And\, as a result of this separation\, at a time when the political\, military and humanitarian situation in the region has never been so critical\, the feelings and the emotions that the band managed to capture on record have never been so vivid.   \nIn October 2014\, making use of a few days off in the middle of a long American tour\, the band stopped off at Rancho de la Luna studios in California’s Joshua Tree National Park. The place has become the favoured refuge of the stoner rock tribe. Josh Homme and his Queens of the Stone Age were the first to make it their hive\, and since then\, whether in use by P J Harvey or the Foo Fighters\, Iggy Pop or the Arctic Monkeys\, neither the mixing console nor the kitchen ovens have had a moment to cool down. For Tinariwen\, the geographical location of the studios – lost in the middle of that horizontal desert\, that mineral immensity\, where Man is reminded of his own insignificance in ways that can only\, in the end\, either kill him or sublimate him – proved to be particularly propitious in terms of creativity. \nLinks: Website | Facebook | Twitter | Instagram \n\n\n	Related

SUMMARY:Snow Tha Product
DESCRIPTION:Bilingual rapper and singer Claudia Feliciano\, who goes by the name Snow tha Product\, switches between hardened rhymes and bright melodic hooks with an emphasis on the former. Easily mistaken for a drug reference\, Feliciano’s performing alias was inspired instead by Disney character Snow White and the artist’s desire to prevent her musical and personal lives from blurring into one another. Born in San Jose and raised in San Diego\, she appeared as Claudia White on “Alguien\,” a 2009 single by Latin pop artist Jaime Kohen\, prior to basing herself out of the Dallas-Fort Worth area. For several years she was an underground artist\, though she eventually attracted some high-level guest appearances on her mixtape releases\, including the likes of Tech N9ne and Ty Dolla $ign. In 2013\, she went aboveground and started issuing singles for major-label Atlantic\, such as “Play\,” “Doing Fine\,” and “Hola\,” which alternated between pop-oriented material and more aggressive\, lighter-hearted tracks tailored for club play. In 2016\, Atlantic released an eight-track EP\, Half Way There…\, Pt. 1. From there Feliciano had success with a series of singles and featured appearances. 2017 included the viral breakup anthem “Waste of Time\,” as well as “Nuestra Cancion\, Pt. 2\,” both showcasing a smoother and more pop-friendly side of her style. The next year she continued with trappy singles “Help a Bitch Out (featuring O.T. Genasis)\,” “Dale Gas\,” and “Today I Decided” as well as the more lighthearted “Goin’ Off” and “Myself (featuring DRAM).” She ended the year by contributing to several tracks on the VIBE HIGHER mixtape with Castro Escobar\, Lex the Great\, Jandro\, and others. ~ Andy Kellman \nLinks: Website | Facebook | Twitter | Instagram | Spotify | YouTube \n\n\n	Related
