LouFest Preview/Interview: Magnolia Summer
28, Aug 2010
Happy LouFest day! It’s Saturday, August 28 and that means Forest Park is ready for its inaugural music festival. After checking out the grounds last night and looking at the weather report today (it’s going to be quite nice) I am as giddy as could be. Make sure to check yesterday’s preview post for today’s [...]
LouFest Preview/Interview: So Many Dynamos
27, Aug 2010
Hopefully you’ve been enjoying the LouFest-heavy content on the blog the last couple of weeks, because there’s only going to be more. The powers that be at LouFest have been nice enough to give me a press pass for the festival and I will be all over Forest Park covering the festivities this weekend.
I’ve said it [...]
LouFest Preview/Interview: Adam Reichmann
25, Aug 2010
Not only is LouFest bringing several national acts to Forest Park in Saint Louis this weekend, but there will be many great local bands appearing on stage as well. Adam Reichmann fronted the fantastic St. Louis-based alt-country band Nadine until their break-up in 2003. In 2006 Reichmann toured Europe as a solo act and recently debuted [...]
LouFest Preview/Interview: Stephaniesid
24, Aug 2010
LouFest is only 4 days away! I remember drooling over the lineup after the big announcement like it was yesterday. Now that LouFest is finally upon us and Forest Park is about to erupt in music I think it’s time to preview a few of the bands that will be gracing the stage this weekend.
Hailing from Asheville, [...]
Cassie Morgan and the Lonely Pine consist of local St. Louis musicians Cassie Morgan and Beth Bombara. Cassie takes care of guitar and vocal duties while multi-instrumentalist Beth Bombara (the Lonely Pine) provides backing vocals and can be found playing anything from the glockenspiel to the toy piano. This folk duo produce enchantingly beautiful tunes that will [...]
Six Questions With: Via Audio
3, Mar 2010
I haven’t been shy about my love for Via Audio (pictured above). They are simply a fun and entertaining band who play some kick-ass indie-rock. They’re new Lp Animalore will be hitting the shelves next Tuesday, March 9 and shows off a bit of the Brooklyn foursom’s funky side. If you can’t wait to hear the new [...]
Six Questions With: Elsinore
24, Feb 2010
Well it’s time for another installment of “Six Questions With” (I suppose making it 5 questions would have worked out better considering the title of the blog, but I’m not that clever). This time around Elsinore was nice enough to answer a few questions in advance of their show this Saturday, February 27 at the Firebird.
Champaign’s [...]
6 Questions w/: Grace Basement
15, Jan 2010To preview their upcoming free show at the Schlafly Tap Room this Saturday, January 16 (tomorrow @ 9pm) I asked Kevin Buckley (lead singer/songwriter) of St. Louis’ Grace Basement six questions and he was nice enough to provide me with six answers.

If you follow @Schlafly on twitter you know that the Tap [...]

6 Questions w/: Mikael Jorgensen of Wilco/Pronto
6, Oct 2009
Wilco keyboardist Mikael Jorgensen has had a busy 2009. Not only did Wilco release the wonderful Wilco (the album), but Pronto (Jorgensen’s side project) has released two LPs. The more proper album of the two is clearly All Is Golden (out 3/10/09 via Contraphonic), the debut LP from the group. All Is Golden is all things pop, while The Cheetah (out [...]

Interview: Welcome To Ashley
2, Oct 2009
There are a lot of great shows to choose from this weekend, but I recommend finding some time to head over to The Library this Saturday night (show starts at 9m) to catch Chicago-based (by way of Nashville) Welcome To Ashley. They’ve been compared to everyone from The Clash to Echo & The Bunnymen and they have a plethora of power-pop hooks [...]
