#35: The Head and the Heart @ Forecastle [Original Post] I'd heard a song or two by Head and the Heart going into their show at Forecastle, but I'll admit that I was really just seeing them because there wasn't a lot of competition for their time slot at Forecastle. But just like what happens [...]
With their first Coachella 2012 performances a not-quite-distant memory, over the weekend some artists engaged in live collaborations to make for unique experiences in their second fest go-around. John Fogerty joined the Black Keys , Annie Clark of St. Vincent sang with Andrew Bird, and Thom Yorke came out during Modeselektor's set to perform "Shipwreck." The spine tingling magical moment of the weekend was during Radiohead at the end of "Karma Police" when the crowd continued to sing "I Lost Myself" after the band had stopped. Check out the robust gallery of photos above and [...]

While on the east coast, Gotye checked in with David Dye from World Cafe for a four track session that you can check out over here . Keep in mind that this US media blitz had Gotye travel back to Coachella for his Sunday show. I never understood the allure behind watching festivals [...]

It was a good day for hoodies, hot chocolate and huddled masses on Friday at the Coachella Valley Music & Arts Festival in Indio. A day that began under sunny skies with temperatures in the 70s turned blustery as a mid-afternoon storm front blew through, sending temperatures plummeting and pelting festival-goers with intermittent cold rain. Maybe it was just another Friday 13th, or maybe the big guy just gazed down and saw too many crimes against fashion, but the skies cried and Coachella shivered and whined. Girls who who started the day in [...]
