Keller Williams & The Travelin' McCourys | BB Kings | NYC | 1/12/14 | Review

Even if Keller Williams wasn’t the one-man extravaganza in today’s music industry, his stage presence would still be undeniably compelling. But to ring in the New Year, K-Dubz wasn’t alone; the Travelin’ McCourys joined him in funkin’ up the stage with their jovial blue grass jive and sublime jam solos. Before blissfully delving into the… Continue reading Keller Williams & The Travelin' McCourys | BB Kings | NYC | 1/12/14 | Review

Lotus | Gilded Age | New Music Review

The first Lotus pressing I ever got my hands on was their last, Monks, this tight little package that threw-back to the glory days of trip-hop you’d never hear about unless you were in—(see Deltron 3030, Doctor Octagon, et. al.)—and, in the process, brought the mellow-fellow known as Doodlebug and his “Cloud 9” musings into… Continue reading Lotus | Gilded Age | New Music Review

Kyle Hollingsworth | Speed of Life | Review

There is no denying the power and influence a band like the String Cheese Incident have brought to the music scene over the last twenty years. As with many of the jam scene’s acts who have been around that long, certain members turn to side and solo projects to further expand their creativity as musicians. … Continue reading Kyle Hollingsworth | Speed of Life | Review

Railroad Earth | Red Rocks | 8/2/14 | Review

After I witness a transformative set of music, this is what inevitably occurs when the dust settles. After a band plays high energy, pedal-to-the-metal music for a cool 100-minutes, it’s difficult to ascertain which pieces stood out as the highlights among many other highlights – the crème de la crème. That’s why I try to… Continue reading Railroad Earth | Red Rocks | 8/2/14 | Review

Robbie McCoury | The Five String Flame Thrower | Review

Keller Williams and Karl Denson | 6/24/2014 | Review

The beach has always defined my summer. Whether as a child anticipating two weeks at the shore for the other 50 weeks each year, as a teen working at a summer camp and spending every daylight at or near the water’s edge, or in my twenties when I learned the fun of service industry work… Continue reading Keller Williams and Karl Denson | 6/24/2014 | Review

Achilles Wheel | Stones to Sand | New Music Review

As the web of Americana continues to be woven, artists connect the past and present through musicianship and songwriting that reflects a fluid agreement between contemporary and roots qualities. Too often is nostalgia misrepresented as authenticity, and bands afraid to develop their own sound generally don’t last the test of time. Of one Northern California’s… Continue reading Achilles Wheel | Stones to Sand | New Music Review

Slightly Stoopid's Summer Sessions | Eugene, OR | 7/9/14 | Review

Slightly Stoopid kick-started their Summer Sessions tour July 9 at Eugene’s Cuthbert Amphitheater with a skanking, Rastafied set of dub-infected fusion. The open-air venue, tucked along the banks of Oregon’s Willamette River, provided a sparkling setting for a sun-splashed evening of righteous rhythms and knowing grins. G. Love and Special Sauce dropped the needle on… Continue reading Slightly Stoopid's Summer Sessions | Eugene, OR | 7/9/14 | Review
