    Kate Bollinger on Bidding Virginia Farewell on New EP ‘Look at it in the Light’

    Kate Bollinger on Bidding Virginia Farewell on New EP ‘Look at it in the Light’

    “I had a pretty idyllic childhood. I grew up with two older brothers who were always looking out for me. So I’ve always viewed my music through the lens of growing up and starting to see the world in very different ways than I did as a kid. And that’s what I always look for […]

    Notable Releases of 2022 (So Far)

    As artists continue to reassemble themselves after being perpetually shut inside for over a year and a half–many of them refusing to release music until they’re able to tour again–new records in 2022 are continuing to illuminate what each artist’s process of self re-examination looks like in light of the pandemic. Here is a list […]

    Live Review: Guerilla Toss at TV Eye

    Raw, uninhibited chaos has always been a hallmark of the live experience for neo-psych noise pioneers Guerilla Toss, and their April 29 show at TV Eye was no exception. Their openers LLVX and Operator Music Band served as excellent primers for the audience with minimal ambient, jazzy grooves. But as soon as Guerilla Toss took […]

    Prismia: Embracing Rebirth on ‘Amongst the Emerald Mind’

    Anna Mariko Seymour of Seattle-based rock outfits The Morning After and Destination Unknown is a multi-hyphenate — producer, vocalist, Berklee graduate, drummer. Now she can add solo act to that list as she enters the newest phase of her career under the moniker Prismia, making ethereal synthrock paeans — think Lykke Li and Santigold with […]

    Live Review: Colleen Green at The Sultan Room

    Live Review: Colleen Green at The Sultan Room

    When it comes to crafting irresistibly catchy guitar pop with serious character, nobody weaves sardonic lyrical humor with ruminations on emotional detachment quite like Colleen Green. After a six-year hiatus following the critical success of her 2015 sophomore album I Want to Grow Up, Green tapped indie producer extraordinaire Gordon Raphael (The Strokes, Hinds) to […]

    Like Rina Sawayama crashing a Harley on speed, SASAMI has set a gold standard for wholesale showmanship on her latest tour supporting her newest album of nu metal-inspired paeans. The former classical composer-turned-indie-icon took the stage at Music Hall of Williamsburg on Friday. Her backing band were the first to emerge, three long-haired men who […]

    Live Review and Q&A: Trophy Wife at The Mercury Lounge

    Live Review and Q&A: Trophy Wife at The Mercury Lounge

    As her name would suggest, the musical output of Trophy Wife—the solo project of 21-year-old Berklee student McKenzie Iazzetta—is inherently subversive. Her songwriting and her distinct vocal delivery constantly contradict one another, with lyrics where she leans into the role of the austere and unaffected “cool girl” trudging her way through the endlessly messy charade […]

    Riot Antigone Transforms a Maligned Heroine into a Symbol of Feminist Reclamation

    Riot Antigone Transforms a Maligned Heroine into a Symbol of Feminist Reclamation

    When writer/director Seonjae Kim originally conceived an off-off broadway play and rock concert based on the Sophocles greek tragedy Antigone, it was always the plan to make the titular character and her greek chorus into a riot grrrl band. But Kim never could have predicted how popular and in-demand the production would become within New […]
