Is LaMP jazz? Funk? Rock? This fusion of drums, Hammond organ, and electric guitar may be difficult to define, but the jammy supergroup left no uncertainty in anyone’s mind at their appearances in Petaluma and Berkeley on Thursday and Friday evenings, respectively. Asses were kicked, names were taken, fun was had.

By the time Robin Trower shuffled onstage at Ventura Music Hall Monday night, the crowd was already reverent—a sea of fans clutching pints and Bridge of Sighs memories on vinyl. Just blocks from the Pacific, the 800-capacity hall felt like the ideal setting for the British blues legend: a restored brick-and-wood space with warm acoustics, vintage charm, and seaside intimacy that made the concert feel more like a private communion than a rock show.

With their latest release, Strange Machines transform their live energy into a studio flame, delivering a record that burns with funk, groove, and raw rock energy.

The calendar said fall had arrived, but the weather was still hot and dry. Benton Harbor had traded beach towels and flip-flops for pumpkins and ghosts. The Livery embraced the spirit of harvest time, putting away the light pilsners and bringing out the Märzen. Brendan Bayliss headed to Benton Harbor knowing The Livery had great food, fantastic beer, and an energetic crowd that knew how to enjoy both.

Brother’s Taylor and Griffin Goldsmith are out on the road performing their unique style of amplified folk-rock magic. On this tour, they are performing as a duo, presenting new and older songs representing many different eras of their musical journey. With their new album about to drop on October 11th, titled Oh Brother, it seems to be an extremely fitting description of their artistic journey together.

Goose played their first show ever at the Allianz Amphitheater at Rivermont in Richmond, VA, nestled by the James River, on October 2nd, 2025. The brand-new 7,500-capacity venue is wrapping up its first concert season by hosting two nights of the indie groove quartet. Their show included a first-time-played cover, "Chocolate Town" by Ween, as well as seasoned jams to crush their inaugural show. 

When a song is born from a tragedy, it carries more than the melody; it carries memory. Andrew Scotchie’s upcoming single “Neighbor” clocks in at three minutes and twelve seconds, a sparkling testament to community resilience and the hope that can rise after disaster. Released around the one-year mark of Hurricane Helene, this track looks back at how far the Western North Carolina community has come while reminding us all that spreading love and kindness in times of division can light even the darkest days.

Grand Rapids is hopping today. Michigan's second-largest city is hosting its local art fair, Art Prize. Throughout the city, venues are open to the public with various forms of art on display. Tonight, the city has also closed Monroe Street for an artist market. Outside the BOB, a local hot spot across from the Van Andel Arena, a sea of cowboy hats and high boots abounds—something is up. Lainey Wilson is in town.

Goose celebrated their 11-year anniversary with a milestone performance at PNC Music Pavilion, joined by supporting act Penelope Road. Charlotte’s biggest amphitheater, with a capacity of 19,500, became the perfect stage for a night that felt both historic and deeply personal.

The indie-groove jam-rock artist Goose returned for round two at the ornate Louisville Palace Theatre on September 24, 2025, and did not disappoint.
