Don’t miss Nothing More out on tour NOW!

April 3, 2014

We were excited to catch Nothing More as they played at the Ace of Spades in Sacramento last week. They were finishing up the tour with Eve To Adam, Kyng and Lacuna Coil. They once again put on an incredible high energy show! Just last year, they stole the show at Aftershock Festival and were the only band to play two sets during the festival. The first day they played the Ernie Ball stage and the second day they were moved to the Main Monster Stage. It was awesome, you can check out our post on it here. They came in to the Ace of Spades and dominated the crowd as they brought their incredible four piece percussion performance as well as a three man bass guitar solo!!! They have incredible stage presence and put on a show you don’t want to miss.

Kingsborough is our Bottle Rock Napa 2014 Featured Band of the Day

April 2, 2014

Today our Bottle Rock Napa Featured Band is Kingsborough. Today was a bit of a rough day for me so I wanted to feature a band that helped me through this rough patch. So today I wanted to feature the soulful music of Kingsborough. They have an amazing sound that when you take a listen, you might think you entered a time machine and found yourself at a Day on the Green in the late 70s. If I was to describe them I would say they are a mix of The Allman Brothers and The Black Crowes. These are five guys from right here in Santa Rosa and they are bringing their big sound to Bottle Rock Napa this year. Their songs are filled with passionate soulful vocals, fierce guitar solos, sweet harmonies and smooth melodies. Today, when I was listening to Little Miss, it completely just takes me to a better place. The guitars in that song just danced with my soul and fueled me with energy. One of my favorite songs is [Read More]
