Valentine’s Day is usually for candlelight, roses, and pretending you enjoy prix-fixe menus. Instead, hundreds of people gathered to scream about emotional damage together at Marathon Music Works for the 10-year anniversary of Emo Night Nashville, brought together by Nashville Is The Reason. Romance, but make it eyeliner.

On February 12, 2026, Umphrey’s McGee performed two sets at The Citizens House of Blues in Boston as part of their “Sky’s the Limit” tour, drawing of fans.   Although a frigid night, the audience was excited to listen to the group composed of Brendan Bayliss (guitar, vocals), Joel Cummins (keyboard, piano, vocals), Ryan Stasik (bass), Andy Farag (Percussion), Jake Cinninger (guitar, vocals), Scotty Zwang (drums).  

ommy James & The Shondells returned to Penn’s Peak in Jim Thorpe, PA on February 14th for a Valentine’s night of rock, romance, and groovy 60s reminiscence. Though this event was postponed from its original date of mid-October, it was hard to be annoyed that they had somehow picked the perfect date to reschedule it for. Groups of lovers flocked to the top of the chilly mountain this past Saturday, their hearts set on taking in all the legendary tunes.

The night before Valentine’s Day, Friday, February 13th, 2026, Plain White T’s came to Wabash, Indiana to spread some love.  With their pop-punk/pop-rock sound, they rocked at the Honeywell Center.  Drifter, indie-pop/indie-rock with folk vibes, opened up the stage for Plain White T’s.  The Honeywell Center was pretty much full with fans. 

On February 10, 2026, the psychedelic rock band Moe performed in Concord, New Hampshire, as part of their 2026 “Born to Fly” Tour. The performance is part of a tour celebrating their 35th anniversary. Although it was a freezing night with heavy snow, many hundreds of fans were there to participate in the live concert. It was an unforgettable night of music with the legendary band, Moe. At the beginning to the end, people were singing, dancing, and encouraging the artists by a

Puscifer released their concert film Normal Isn’t: Live at the Pacific Stock Exchange on February 9th, 2026.  Before its release for at home purchase and viewing, select brick and mortar vinyl shops offered free screening parties.  To my surprise, the town that I work in was hosting a screening party.

How can I get enough? Yes, I have once again traversed up to the great white north for a double close encounter of the Gowan kind. When the Strange Animal comes around, I’ve got to follow! To say these shows were “unexpected” would only be scratching the surface of how surprised I was to hear that this king of the airwaves intended to come back to Ottawa after only 9 months of absence. Gowan (along with myself and several of my friends) recently spent a few warm January night

Six months on from the start of the Ad Astra tour, Northern Irish rockers Ash returned to London’s Scala having once again sold out the King’s Cross venue. At a mere 34 years young, Ash’s line up of Tim Wheeler (vocals and guitar), Mark Hamilton (bass) and Rick McMurray (drums) remain the same as day one, but the act that follows is not just resting on their early career, but an indie rock tour de force through a career that has never lulled.

Although it was a freezing night with the temperature dropping to 8o Fahrenheit. On February 7, 2026, in Worcester, MA, I attended the Pink Talking Fish performance at Off the Rails Music Venue. It was cold but it was a terrific, heated night of music. The sold-out event was just incredible. Seeing people singing, dancing and acting crazy during the entire performance, made it easy to recognize that they were prepared for that night of electric, high-energy performances that

There were quite a few barriers that concertgoers had to cross on the night of February 7th. If it wasn’t the lack of service at the nearby Jefferson Stop on the L train, it was traversing the below freezing temperatures. If it wasn’t the bitter cold, it was navigating the ice and snow still on the ground from the winter storm two weeks prior. However, even with all of these obstacles, Zone One was as packed as ever for Daffo’s New York headlining show.

TX2 brought The End of Us Tour to Bakersfield on February 8, 2026.

It's an unusually cold evening as the sun shines on the historic cobblestone streets of Ybor City here in Tampa, Florida. Though only a Monday night, the air is filled with an undeniable excitement at Crowbar, located at the corner of East 8th and North 17th.  Inside this popular music sanctuary, adoring fans in halos and angel wings are scattered around the room, patiently waiting to be blessed with killer vocals, catchy lyrics, and the unmistakable energy of Meg Smith,

The Elovaters performed at MGM Music Hall at Fenway, Boston, with special guests including SixFoxWhiskey, Jarv, and Afroman. The Elovaters performed for two nights during their Sunburn Tour 2026. The first night, on Friday January 30, 2026, was an incredible night of music. Almost five thousand enthusiastic fans attended the concert. The audience loved every minute of this excellent show.
