Unless you were particularly dialed into the early ’00s punk, emo, and indie scene, and/or you were a teenager or twenty-something in South Florida early last decade, you could be forgiven for not remembering The Remedy Session. Hailing from Ft. Lauderdale, the trio, who harbored a sound reminiscent of peers at the time like The Anniversary,…

It’s hard to believe that bands made famous by the ’00s emo scene are hitting the two-decade mark, but that’s exactly the case this year for seminal Long Island outfit Taking Back Sunday, who formed in 1999 and quickly became an underground fixture, before breaking out with cult favorite debut LP Tell All Your Friends in 2002,…

After springing back to life in 2016, and steadily showing how a proper reunion is done in the years since, with festival appearances easing into tour dates (including a 2017 return to Nashville), personal mending, attention to fan service, and the foresight not to overstay their buzz, beloved New Jersey post-hardcore icons Thursday are ready to wind…

For the past several years, we’ve watched Boone, NC eclectic rock outfit Rainbow Kitten Surprise balloon from a buzzy indie fixture to a nationally lauded, major label backed, must-know band, frequently stopping through Music City on their ascent, each time with impressive new tunes in tow. After stopping through last spring to play Cannery Ballroom, not…
