Captured live: Tonya Morgan at the Music Hall of Williamsburg

I caught Tonya Morgan’s last song during their performance at The Music Hall of Williamsburg during Converses showcase. The mob of people outside was a complete shit show.

Captured live: Flatbush Zombies at the Williamsburg Hall of Music

By

I never heard of the Flatbush Zombies before Converse’s showcase at The Music Hall of Williamsburg lastnight. Obviously I live under some sort of rock or something because the crowd was singing word for word and going crazy. A group of artist this dope and I’m just hearing of them now? I should be ashamed […]

Givers and Yellow Ostrich Played Music Hall of Williamsburg

Ticket Giveaway: Glasser at Music Hall of Williamsburg

By

Glasser, if you don’t know by now, is the singular work of one Cameron Mesirow– an ethereal one woman electro-orchestra which rings in tune to acts that we adore such as Alaska In Winter, except with a femininity that seems to float effortlessly above the rhythms of each song. Around the time of Glasser’s debut […]
