RIYL: The Strokes, The Lemon Twigs, The Kinks, Sharp Pins, Alex G Finn Wolfhard embraces the contrasting realities of adulthood on his sophomore album, "Fire From The Hip," exploring the tension between nostalgia and growth, public perception and private experience. Through memories, pop culture, and moments that blur the line between public and private life, Wolfhard examines the contradictions that come with growing up. The first instance of this comes at the end of alb

Joji's unique connection with his fans was on full display as the giant platform carried him above the Moody Center stage in Austin, TX on Monday. If there's anything that fans who see Joji's live performance can agree on, it's that his shows are unmatched. Upon coming into the venue, fans are greeted with a giant platform hanging far above the stage, already setting expectations high for the show (literally). The night started off with Corbin and Nate Sib warming up the crow

I've come to greatly appreciate the thought that goes into planning tours, as more and more artists take on the storytelling approach to their performances instead of just playing through their discography. 5 Seconds of Summer is the perfect example of how this storytelling can not only be used to frame the structure of the show, but can also comment on topics impacting our world, the band, or their fans. 5SOS opened their Austin show in the most predictable way possible: by

I have to start this show recap with the thought that has been bouncing around in my head since last night: Khalid's show was one of the most genuine expressions of love for his craft and his fans that I've seen in a really long time, especially for such a big artist. Khalid brought his 2026 'It's Always Summer Somewhere' Tour to Austin, TX last night and we were blown away at how incredible this show was. The setlist was frightening going into the show, with 36 songs we were

I have been preaching about Greyson Chance since roughly 2010. He was the first CD I purchased at the ripe age of 10 and the first artist I found meaning in my own life with their lyrics. Since 2010, his music has exceeded any expectation I thought he was capable of reaching. Each new release continues to put feelings I didn't know I had into words and this release is no different. Greyson is back with JOCK PORN, a piano ballad that explores the vulnerability around attractio

Just over a year after the release of his debut solo album Happy Birthday, Finn Wolfhard is back to promote his upcoming sophomore album Fire From The Hip with its second single, 'Tunnels'. Photo courtesy of: Jill Fritzo PR 'Tunnels' appears to explore the feeling of your mind closing in on you during periods of anxiety or depression. With lyrics like, "Fireworks in the fog / Cross my line again, I swear you'll mind again," Wolfhard seems to touch on the struggle of having m

Brighton-born indie rock band Larlin describe themselves on Spotify as a band that "writes your diary entries so you don't have to" and honestly, it's hard to think of a more fitting introduction. Their latest release, Sondheim, proves exactly why. Sondheim explores the constant struggle of maintaining a sense of self while navigating how you're perceived by the outside world. It's about those moments of disconnection, when you feel detached from your own life and suddenly

RIYL: Gregory Alan Isakov, Fleet Foxes, Hollow Coves, Lord Huron Indie Folk band The Paper Kites opened their If You Go There, I Hope You Find It tour in Austin, TX last night and absolutely blew the crowd away. The fans gathered at Emo's to see what awaited them with the opening night of the tour. They drew in an incredible crowd; it was some of the most packed I've seen the venue. The night started off with Donovan Woods. The Canadian artist started off his set talking to t

Finn Wolfhard returns with sophomore album announcement, Fire From The Hip out July 10th. Lead single, "I'll Let You Finish" is out now.

I've been a firm believer that we should bring back appreciation for albums played front to back, so when I heard that Boys Like Girls were playing two of their greatest albums front to back on the Soundtrack of Your Life Tour, I knew I had to be in attendance. I was not prepared for how many emotions I felt during this show and how much nostalgia that hearing these albums live brought back for me. The first opener, Arrows in Action, was the perfect start to the night to get

RIYL: Slowdive, Cigarettes After Sex, Beach House Chicago shoegaze band flowersatherfeet has done it again. I’ve been listening to their new single, “Name,” on repeat since it was released and sending it to everyone I know. I don’t know what they put into everything they release, but it must be addicting. Beware when you listen, because you won’t be able to stop. “NAME” is a beautiful depiction of relying on someone else for emotional support and stability, only for that p
