Concert Review: 311 at the Toyota Music Factory
311, a band that has been together for 36 years as of a couple of months ago, graced the stage at the Toyota Music Factory in Irving on a hot summer day. Their stage presence and energy are unmatched, as they know how to get a crowd moving and dancing along throughout their performance. They opened with songs like "Beautiful Disaster," "Come Original," and "All Mixed Up" as their first three songs.

Review: Rockstar Energy Open 2026, Portland, O.R., Where Skateboarding and Music Collided
Rockstar Energy Open has now wrapped up its third year at Tom McCall Waterfront Park in Portland, Oregon. The event was reminiscent of events in the early 2000s such as the Vans Warped Tour, when skating contests happened alongside live punk bands that were popular at the time. There was definitely something nostalgic about this event, as skating and punk have seemed to evolve in separate directions over the last 20 years. It was fun to see both together in full swing again.

Concert Review: Ole 60, Cigarettes @ Sunset, Kolton Moore & the Clever Few at McMenamins Grand Lodge Forest Grove, OR
Every once in a while, you walk into a concert, look at the lineup, and say to yourself, "A few years from now, someone is going to see that lineup and be like, 'Wow, all those bands played together.'" It didn't cost a month's income to see them, and it wasn't on some huge festival grounds.
On Saturday, August 15th, in Forest Grove, OR I feel like I witnessed one of those concerts: Ole 60 with support from Kolton Moore and the Clever Few and Cigarettes @ Sunset.

Concert Review: Buddy Guy 90: The Blues Are Still Burning at The Ryman Auditorium in Nashville, TN
At 90 years old, Guy isn't simply touring. He's carrying more than seven decades of American music history onto the stage with him. The Buddy Guy 90 tour, with Christone "KINGFISH" Ingram opening the night, wasn't merely a celebration of a birthday. It was a celebration of the blues itself, from the artists who built it to the musicians now carrying it forward.

Concert Review: Lord Huron Atlanta at the Coca-Cola Roxy - (The Cosmetic Selector Tour)
Visuals, Jukebox, and the Payphone:
Lord Huron's Cosmic Selector Tour had a massive smoke-filled backdrop that transported the band into hot deserts and dark foggy cold forests throughout the show. The band was spread out on the stage with two major props that were put on the spotlight for the show. The first was a spotlight on a huge jukebox on the right side of the stage that symbolized the album "The Cosmic Selector Vol.1" which depicted themes of fate, choice, regret and

Concert Review: The Revivalists at Lake Morey Resort
At 8:15 p.m., The Revivalists hit the stage with high energy and powerful vocals from frontman David Shaw. Shaw's connection with the crowd was strong, as usual. It was a truly unique and euphoric experience for many in the audience. People were singing, dancing, eating, and drinking. They joined in on every word of the songs, singing along as one. It was a celebration of faith, family, and community, a moment filled with good vibes, great music, and an opportunity to connect

Concert Review: Tyler Childers Along with Evan Honer Brought the Bluegrass, Hippie, Honkytonk to Hershey Park Stadium
On a warm and sticky summer night in Hershey, Pennsylvania, Tyler Childers proved that you don't need arena-sized theatrics to command a stadium. Armed with a catalog built on Appalachian storytelling, country grit and songs that feel as lived-in as they sound, Childers brought his Snipe Hunt tour to Chocolatetown. Evan Honer, singer-songwriter and ex collegiate springboard diver opened the show with his personal brand of indie-folk-pop.
