El 2012 recién comienza y las buenas noticias también. Una de ellas es la octava edición de el pequeño gran festival, Indie-O Fest . Festival que desde el 2005 reúne a lo mejor de la música independiente, y queda muy claro que este año no es la excepción. Dicen los organizadores: "En esta ocasión, se trata de una curaduría más ecléctica y mutifacética, llena de coloridos musicales provenientes de emocionantes rincones de la escena independiente". Destaca la participación de 2 ex integrantes de Sonic Youth , [...]

From Cropped Out's Facebook : Cropped Out aims to celebrate a select fistful of contemporary musicians, artists, and artisans whom we feel reflect a greater undercurrent of sonic, visual, and conceptual exploration. It is our intention to turn heads toward the talents of those often omitted, overlooked, or cropped out of "the big picture." These are the minds most interesting to us, the minds most capable of emerging from and quickly returning to their lightlessness, if only to be briefly met by a niche appreciation. Cropped Out KY: Cropped Out is a locally [...]

One thing Cincinnati isn't probably known for is dirty punk rock (no offense to Cincy Punk Fest, which is great.) That's not to say they haven't had their fair share of it through the years, but it has never been big enough to rival the garage rock or even pop music scene here in the Queen City. VACATION wants to change that. Or at least, they want you to know they are here and brandishing their brand of noisy punk music. And it's not any of that Green Day sounding pop punk stuff, but instead it [...]

I've heard about The Fest for years but never made the trek to Gainesville, Florida. For those who are similarly uninitiated, Fested: A Journey to Fest 7 provides a feet-on-the-street trip through Fest 7 (2008), a weekend-long " big, drunk, punk rock, bearded, tattooed family reunion ". The title of the movie is a reference to one of the film makers' friends who is completely drunk and they refer to him as being "fested". After watching this close to two hour documentary, I came away thinking that this is what [...]
This year marks the 10th anniversary of the MidPoint Music Festival here in Cincinnati, and as we noted on Twitter this morning, the initial artist lineup for this years festivities will be announced today. In the years since City Beat took the festival reigns, they have brought in bands like Surfer Blood, Holy F*ck, Best Coast, A Place To Bury Strangers, Ted Leo, Jason Isbell, Caribou, Chairlift, Van Dyke Parks and more local and regional bands of note to mention. So this year should be another step forward for the festival and we are [...]

Like I don't even know where to begin. All's I know is, get your 3 day pass while it's hot. Who I included in the subject of this post doesn't even come close to the amount of/cover the extent of how unreal and awesome this year is going to be. I've got to say that Perry's Stage looks like it's going to be a party. What's crazy is the amount of additions/surprise artists that I'm sure are going to be added as we get closer to August, not to mention all the post-Lolla after partys which are always [...]

We love the Old Settler's Fest every year. Even when it gets a little too Austin-hippie jam band for us, there are rarely events that are as chilled out and friendly and that compile such top notch talent in a relatively small area. So we are kind of excited that this year, in addition to the expected roots all-stars like Richard Thompson, Sam Bush, Tim O'Brien, and Jim Lauderdale, there is also a pretty nice dose of artists we would typically consider more in the indie-oriented realm. Most notably is the Friday night headliner of the Avett Brothers, which indicates [...]
See your bands in this week's Chronicle. Get your bands here .

It's that time again for my favorite Phoenix DIY punk/hardcore fests. Granted, there aren't a lot of those competing with Sundown Showdown , but I'd find it hard to beat even if there were. The fest took place last year at Yucca Tap Room and this year will be transported to somewhere a little more cramped and grimy. It feels like the choice of venue will only make this year crazier, as more and more people try to fit inside throughout the fest. This year the fest features a lot of great local bands, and a few [...]
