Deleted Scenes and A Lull at Rickshaw Stop [Photo Review]
Deleted Scenes dropped by the Rickshaw Stop, sharing the stage with A Lull and Ravenna Wood. Although the woeful 49ers loss may have kept a few extra people from braving the fifth stormy night in as many days, the group played a motivated and energetic set, much to the pleasure of the attending patrons. Fresh off of their September [...]

Caveman at Brick and Mortar [Photographs]
What a great little venue the Mission has in the Brick and Mortar Music Hall! Right under the freeway entrance on 14th near Mission, this new club evokes a decidedly New York vibe. This according to my recently-from-New York friend who came with me to the show on Sunday night, though I think she exaggerated for the sake [...]

The Weakerthans “Four & More” Tour 2011 @ The Independent [Live Review]
Billed as the “Four & More” tour, Winnipeg’s The Weakerthans set up residency at the Independent for a sold-out four-night stretch of dates, each a celebration of a different full length from their modestly-sized but venerable discography. The album show, if it is common enough to be known as such, is a peculiar kind of palimpsest. Original, recorded [...]

Real Estate at Slim’s 11/11/11
Last Friday Real Estate returned to a packed Slim’s. Two weeks after opening for Deerhunter, now headliners, the group brought a huge crowd. Considering that their latest album, Days, was released only a month ago, and that this was their second performance in two weeks–the “band to watch” label Stereogum recently gave adorn them with is undoubtedly true.

City and Colour at The Fillmore [Photographs]
City and Colour stopped by The Fillmore this past weekend, to play a show on the west-coast leg of their North American and Canadian tour. The stop wasn’t added until mid-September, but they sold out the venue with ease. Playing with his well-talented fellow Canadian musicians, the sound was tight and full, and projected nicely throughout The Fillmore’s [...]

Playlist [New Mp3s] Tycho, Dirty Projectors, Major Lazer

Several albums including the new Dirty Projector & Björk, Real Estate and Tycho, have caught my ear, in addition to singles from Major Lazer, The Moor, and Saint Motel. [...]

Creators Project – Justice, Karen O, Florence and The Machines, and More
Situated next to the East River down under the Manhattan Bridge Overpass (DUMBO) normally boasts a European atmosphere with lingering patrons in cafes, coffee shops and bars speckled with affianced couples getting their photos snapped on its cobble stoned streets. However, this past weekend at The Creators Project those streets were sectioned off for the elite hipster crowd [...]

Treasure Island Day 2 In Photos
Few things are better than lounging on a blanket in park, drenched in sun and with your friends. Very few things. One of those rare instances would be seeing The Antlers, St. Vincent, Stephen Malkmus and The Jicks, Beach House and Explosions In The Sky while lounging on a blanket in the park, drenched in sun and with [...]
