FREEwilliamsburg’s Top 25 Albums of 2019

December 18, 2019 By Peter Rittweger

FREEwilliamsburg’s Top 25 Albums of 2019

There is something bittersweet about writing a Top 25 albums post at the end of a decade marked by so much change in music, the way its distributed, and the way it’s reviewed. The last thing I wanted to do, was rehash how algorithms have created our own individual musical vacuums for the thousandth time, […]

Top 5 shows of the weekend

September 17, 2015 By Chris Quartly

Greetings. Let’s start off by reveling in Run the Jewel’s performance on Colbert this week (with TV On the Radio as their backing band, no less). Good, now we can move on with our weekend plans.

Top 5 shows of the weekend

July 9, 2015 By Chris Quartly

Oppressive humidity appears to be the order of the day at the moment, just in time for a myriad of outdoor shows. Alas, cavorting is always preferable to hopeless ennui. Remember though kids, stay hydrated and wear your earplugs, and after that public service announcement, it’s on with this weekend’s best shows…

Live review: Mikal Cronin played Bowery Ballroom

May 6, 2015 By Chris Quartly

Mikal Cronin celebrated the release of his third solo record with a packed Bowery Ballroom on Tuesday night. The new album (helpfully titled MCIII) has a fuller, more lush sound than its predecessor, with strings and keyboards more prominent, while his ear for a pop hook is still on top form.
