I hope everyone enjoyed the long weekend, survived valentine’s day, and is generally looking forward to making plans for Spring. After a couple more quiet weeks show-wise, we’re back with some fine choices.
2017 Northside Music Festival guide
While Memorial Day is supposed to officially signal the start of summer, there’s nothing like the Northside Festival that really makes it feel like the season is here; it may just be our favourite part of the year. With over 300 bands playing this time around it’s impossible to see everything, so we’re here to […]

Happy 4/20, everyone! It has been a hectic couple of weeks and rolls need to be slowed, which is somewhat reflected in the recommendations this week.
This weekend: Out In The Streets Fest with So So Glos, Beverly, Frankie Rose, and more

Here are some ideas for the impending weekend that don’t involve watching oversized men throwing a ball around for about 3 seconds then taking […]
FREEwilliamsburg reviews CMJ 2014
Another year has mostly gone by and another CMJ Music Marathon is in the can. We had four of our esteemed bloggers on the ground for this year’s festivites: Chris Quartly, Coleman Bentley, Carly McAlpine and yours truly. We drank many dranks, ate free pizza, stumbled drunkenly across bridges, fought the urge to get free […]
Beverly – "Honey Do"
We’ve been enjoying the new single from Frankie Rose’s band Beverly. We were underwhelmed by her follow-up to Interstallar, Herein Wild so “Honey Do” is especially refreshing. The debut from Beverly, Careers, is out July 1 on Kanine. You can see them at Baby’s All Right for their record release party on June 28. Watch […]
