    Player one
    All I can say is, out with the old and in with the new. The digital sound […]

  • November 30, 2007 @ Rancho Relaxo: Kansas City Shuffle, Key Witness, Golden Hands Before God,

    By: Tyler Wade
    On Friday I went to Dan Wolovick’s Two Way Monologues 6.5 night, a fundraiser for United Way. Kansas City Shuffle’s opening set was decent. The Jimmy Eat World/power punk pop sound isn’t my kind of music, but the band was tight and delivered a rambunctious set. It’s too bad that there weren’t very […]

  • The Schomberg Fair: Pickup Full of Empties 2006 Independent

    By: Lidia Vila
    Ma, get yer gun, the Schomberg boys are here. Matt Bahem (guitar, vocals) and Nathan Sidon (bass, vocals) and Jake Stewart (drums) would fit perfectly well into the “O Brother, Where Art Thou?” soundtrack.
    If James Earl Jones had a long lost brother, Nathan Sidon might be that man. Sidon’s baritone voice is perfect […]

  • Luke Sneyd: All of Us Cities 2007 Mannequin Phono
