Concert Review: Architects North American Tour Chicago IL at Riviera Theatre with ERRA and Holywatr
Architects
Making their return to the North American Midwest, Architects packed the iconic Riviera Theatre as they steamrolled through most of their newer catalogue including their latest album “The Sky, The Earth & All Between” having the crowd buzzing from start to finish. Finally getting to hear “Curse” live was a real treat as it’s my favorite song they’ve released since “a new moral low ground”. Sam’s vocals were in top form, the bands energy was infectious and the cro

Concert Review: Tedeschi Trucks Band with Whiskey Meyers at the Gorge Amphitheater, Quincy, WA
It is Saturday August 9th, and we are at the Gorge Amphitheatre in Quincy, WA. It has been well over a decade since I have been here but as soon as I hit the top of the hill staring down to the stage that is situated right on the walls of the Columbia River Gorge all the memories came flooding back. I know some people will debate me but for my money there is no better venue west of the Mississippi. Just absolutely breathtaking and to me it's the best way to enjoy a show.

Concert Review: Bôa at the Brooklyn Steel
The band Bôa performed at the Brooklyn Steel August 7, 2025, with shoegaze band sweet93 opening the night. Bôa is best known for their song Duvet, originally popularized by the 1998 anime Serial Experiments Lain and rediscovered in late 2021 after going viral on social media. The song’s online explosion prompted a resurgence of the band and a second 2024 album Whiplash after a nearly two decade hiatus. Boa’s story is a clear example of how the internet can rewrite the traject

Concert Review: Dark Star Orchestra in Deerfield, MA
On August 4, 2025, Dark Star Orchestra performed at Tree House Brewing Company located in Deerfield, MA. Thousands of fans attended the outside concert. It was a great night of music with pizza and beer around. Tree House Deerfield carries a wide variety of fresh beer, cold brew, and seltzer. They also have in-house-made pizzas available at the pizza counter. As a live music photographer; I drove 2 hours from Brookline to Deerfield to cover Dark Star Orchestra.

Album Review: The Haunt Release New Addiction
I definitely didn’t wake up thinking I’d be reviewing music today. Honestly, I’ve been buried in
deadlines, fighting off some kind of low-budget plague, and generally trying to maintain the
illusion of adult functioning from my couch. And then boom an email shows up inviting me to
review a release. Against all logic, I felt a spark. Turns out, no matter how fried I am, new
music still cuts through the static. Some habits die hard and I’m always curious, especially

Concert Review: Suceava Blues Festival 2025 Suceava, Romania
Tucked away in the undulating hills of northeastern Romania, Suceava is a city where history feels layered – where the footsteps of Moldavian princes, Habsburg governors, and Orthodox monks still resonate in the hush of cobbled streets and timeworn fortresses. It’s here that the Suceava Blues Festival comes to life – a free-to-attend celebration that brings together world-class blues talent like Ana Popovic, Ian Siegal, and Sugar Queen Blues, alongside Romanian favourites suc

CONCERT REVIEW: KALEO AT THE LOWELL SUMMER MUSIC SERIES
On Sunday August 3, 2025, Kaleo stopped at the Lowell Summer Music Series to promote their third studio album titled MIXED EMOTIONS released on May 9 via Atlantic. The weather, the temperature, the atmosphere, the ambiance… Everything was perfect for an exciting night of music. Bringing their chairs with them, hundreds of fans sitting near to each other on the lawn at the Boarding House Park stage were amazed to be part of the outside concert.

Concert Review: King Gizzard & The Lizard Wizard w/ U.S. Girls at Forest Hills Stadium, Queens, NY
There are very few bands as popular and simultaneously enigmatic as Australian rock (?) group King Gizzard and the Lizard Wizard. Throughout their 15 year career, the band has officially released 27 albums ranging from all types of genres including psychedelic, thrash metal, and synthpop to name a few, as well as miscellaneous explorations into microtonal tuning. The group has also made a name for themselves for their enthralling live sets, frequently switching up their formu

Album Review: Halestorm's Sixth Studio Album Everest Out 8/8!
Halestorm is set to release their 6th full length studio album, Everest, on 8/8/2025. This album has been a couple of years in the making. They took their time and didn’t rush through the process in one sitting. Halestorm fought tooth and nail for everything on this album to be truly authentic and true to themselves.

Concert Review: Jimmie Vaughan and His Tilt-A-Whirl Band at 229 with Surprise Guest Eric Clapton, London, U.K.
Anyone going into this evening thinking this was just going to be a normal Monday night in London was sorely mistaken. We knew we were in for an incredible night of music with Jimmie Vaughan and his Tilt-A-Whirl band, but we were yet to see just how legendary it would be.

Concert Review: Descendents at The Underground – Charlotte, NC
The Descendents, punk rock pioneers, were graciously greeted at The Underground by fans of all ages. When I say all ages, I mean generations worth of fans. It wasn’t uncommon to see day one fans with their kids, singing along and having a grand old time….it was a beautiful sight to see.
