As winter finally seems to have settled in, we’re already starting to long for summer, with more major festival announcements arriving nearly every single day.

Australian pop punk group (and current Rolling Stone cover stars) 5 Seconds of Summer have had a massive couple of years, thanks, in no small part, to their associations with mega boyband One Direction (an association which also often leads 5SOS to be labeled a boyband themselves, despite writing songs and playing instruments and taking…

Local pop rockers Yesteryear caught our ear awhile back with their underrated debut EP, We All Need Something.

Local fuzz pop outfit Daddy Issues and Louisville based rockers White Reaper are both celebrating pretty epic years. Daddy Issues recently signed with Infinity Cat Records, and have been riding the early success of their stellar June 2015 release, Can We Still Hang.

The holidays are a time for giving. A time to be spent with those you love. Unless, you live in the world of Nashville based pop outfit The Queen And King. They just released a video cover of “Santa Claus Is Coming To Town,” and, let’s just say it might be more fitting for the…

Earlier this year, breakout alternative/indie/emo infused outfit Better Off released what is, hands down, one of the best local (and national) records of the year, Milk. Helmed by producer Arun Bali (of Saves the Day fame and also Nashville based), the Equal Vision Records release showcases the group’s expanded range, eclectic musicianship, and matured thematic focus, helping them…
