Thousand Foot Krutch announce fall headline Born This Way Tour

September 17, 2014

Very excited to announce that Thousand Foot Krutch will be heading out this fall on their headlining Born This Way Tour. The tour is named after their hit single Born This Way which is off their recent release, Oxygen: Inhale. The tour will begin on October 7th in Joliet, IL at Mojoes and wrap up in Lubbock, TX at Jakes Backroom. The tour will include support by great bands; We As Human, Righteous Vendetta and Like A Storm. The hit single is one of the catchiest out there and it can be described as a self empowering “be yourself” anthem. “We were made to be who we are, and every one of us is unique,” says McNevan of the premise behind “Born This Way.” “We’re wired the way we are for a reason. We were all created equal, and this song is an anthem for everyone who’s tired of being someone they’re not, or has to dumb down who they are for someone else.  Be yourself, you’re the best version of you.” Check the tour dates [Read More]

Slash ft. Myles Kennedy and the Conspirators album is out now!

September 16, 2014

The new album World On Fire from Slash ft. Myles Kennedy and the Conspirators is out now! This is one album that I was waiting for and it definitely exceeded all my expectations. The album features a complete 17 songs that do not disappoint, each one ready to rock your world. You can’t help but rock out to the signature crunchy riffs of Slash, the most powerful vocals of Myles and songs that will take you on a rockin ride. The album truly has a more cohesive band element and not a feature alone of Slash. It is truly a full body of work that will capture your attention from start to finish. The first single World On Fire garnered a lot of great attention since it’s first release, and the rest of the album followed suit and did not falter in any way. Some of my faves so far are 30 Years to Life, Stone Blind, Dirty Girl, Too Far Gone, and Avalon. It is also so hard to choose because it is such a complete [Read More]

The Young Wild deliver a warm embrace to San Francisco through their spectacular set

September 12, 2014

The Young Wild have recently released their new EP, For Now Not Forever on September 2nd. We were excited to catch them as they set out on tour recently with Barcelona. They made a stop in San Francisco at The Bottom of the Hill and it was a spectacular night. The place was packed and they came on after a great set by Midnight Cinema. The Young Wild brought the crowded venue to life as they performed their emotionally driven and fun songs, laden with catchy choruses and sweet melodies. Being that their EP was only released several days before, it was wonderfully surprising to see how many were singing along to the words as if it was their old favorites. A couple highlights for me are Moment Goes and Cry Out. Cry Out is such a fantastic track and to hear it performed live, was like a warm embrace through their music. They bring a lot of passion into their songs and create a special connection with the listener. Check out the photos by [Read More]

Spiralarms release new video for Exit 63 and catch them at the SoFa Street Fair

September 11, 2014

One of our favorite bands, Spiralarms have released the third video from their well received 2013 album Freedom. This time the video takes you back in time as guitarist, Tim Narducci explains, “Here is our third video from the Freedom album, “Exit 63″. It takes a step back in time and taps into moments of history that ended the free love movement. It’s a heavy visual reminder that history usually repeats its self and parades the dark side of humanity. A very heavy ride!” Check out the video here: Spiralarms have been one of our favorite bands ever since seeing them last year at Regency Ballroom with Steel Panther. They are not only fantastic musicians but also a great group of guys that deliver solid sets whenever they perform. They have a very dedicated fanbase and is far reaching worldwide. Some might think of them as a Bay Area band but these guys are world traveled and have been rocking stages all over and have an amazing draw every time. We most recently caught them when they performed [Read More]
