He set out to not care so much about what anyone thinks (aside from his wife, Kaetlyn). “I didn’t set out to write a concept album about ‘letting go’, but it just became obvious that’s what this EP is about,” Dan sh

On October 30, 2025 - Post-hardcore band; FieldHockey released the official music video for their recent single " Mazes " and the band actually had the video created in a maze. The video can be the perfect visual representation of someone having a very chaotic mind that is constantly looking for a way out, but it can also be interpreted as someone who doesn't want to take accountability for their actions and they are always looking for an easy way out. With the band being po

The sun is beginning to set as a crisp breeze moves over the streets of Manhattan. I make my way to Delancey Street on the Lower East Side through the hustle and bustle of the evening crowd. Nestled in between a sea of buildings, I found myself outside of the iconic Bowery Ballroom. A building that has become synonymous with the NYC music scene and one filled with a rich historical past. Tonight the line stretches well beyond the entrance, making its way down and around th

October 22: My day started early, with a strong cup of coffee and a quick check of the schedule for the night's concerts. I was excited to be photographing Sponge, Local H, and Everclear at Irving Plaza, and I wanted to make sure I was prepared for the energy and action on stage.

I removed my usual items at any venue's security check-in–camera, camera fanny pack, phone–when the guard asked if I could take off my carabiner and pant chain. As I unclipped them, "I'm guessing you've asked a lot of people this tonight?", and was met with a, "You know, not as much as you'd think." Nice, security got the joke. With half of The Beaches identifying as LGBTQ+, they’ve naturally built a queer fan base and this was on full display at their Los Angeles show.

What inspired the creation of this single? Hey! This is Kaleb Hikele from The Sun Harmonic, I'll take the reigns on the interview and speak on behalf of the band. So, this song was first written by me in a furniture delivery van, quite a few years ago, working a manual labour job and daydreaming about the glory days. I wrote it in my head while I was driving (which has happening numerous times with a bunch of my personal favourite songs) and I think I recorded a clip on m
