This Week In Shows (Haiti Benefit Concerts)

THIS WEEK IN SHOWS

Alright, I usually write a little blurb about each show I’m recommending, you know, arguing for why you should check it out. But this week I’m recommending these shows all for the same reason: each of them is a benefit for the relief efforts in Haiti. Hopefully you see something […]

THIS WEEK IN SHOWS

Our top picks. Sorry it’s a little Saturday-heavy this week. THURS, JAN. 21

Darlings, Lonnie Walker, Motel Motel, Gunfight Union Pool 9:00 PM, TBA, 21+ When I think garage pop in 2010, I immediately think drunk and rowdy, but Darlings are sweet; their songs remind me of early sixties California […]

HIDDEN GEMS

Orchestre Stukas | L’Afrique Danse Presents Orchestre Stukas Yesterday was a sad day in the music world, and devastating for the world at large.

Hidden Gems

HIDDEN GEMS Dan Melchior’s Broke Revue | Heavy Dirt Billy Childish is known for his millions of side-projects almost as much as his work influencing garage punk as we know it. But what about the people HE works with? Holly Golightly’s had her White Stripes fun (“It’s True That We Love One Another”), but what […]

Premiere: True Womanhood | “The Monk”

True Womanhood – “The Monk”

It seems that when we listed the reasons we wanted to go to the Babies/Beach Fossils/Sundelles show at Glasslands this Wednesday we forgot a pretty good one: DC’s True Womanhood. We just received this track that will appear on their soon-to-be released debut EP, Basement […]

THIS WEEK IN SHOWS

Hey…so we’ve been out of the show listing game for the past two weeks, partly because there just haven’t been too many shows going on due to the holidays, but mostly because the editors have been out of town, assessing our life goals and watching old movies in bed. Anyway, […]
