Phew, this weekend is going to be a packed one! Guitar prodigies, rock legends, dance parties, rap stars, indie darlings – we can hardly breathe for choices. Or maybe that’s the oppressive heat. Either way, there’s plenty to keep your mind occupied. And there is a TON of shows going on sale this weekend too, [...]
The weekend is so almost here! And we’ve got some great options for you make it go all-too-fast, from new indie rock heroes, local favorites, crooners, legends and more.
Now that the holiday weekend is over, live music is fully back on a roll. One of our favorite venues, The EARL, celebrates its 12th anniversary with a weekend of amazing shows, and we fully recommend that you stop by and raise a glass in the great club’s honor. And by the looks of the [...]

This weekend is going to be epic, y’all. Not only is it the first Atlanta Food & Wine Festival, but there are some very beautiful glittery shows (Flaming Lips, of Montreal), and we also hear there will be bands playing all weekend at the Oakland Cemetery too! You’re spoiled for choice.
The heat is officially here people! You’ll either want to be basking in the full sun and getting used to the balmy atmosphere as soon as possible, or you’ll be avoiding the warmth in a cool air-conditioned club. Either way, we have some great suggestions for your weekend. And there’s even a few on sales [...]
After a few weeks, we’re back up and running. We know you’ve missed our Weekend Picks, so never fear – our recommendations for the days ahead are here for you. And it looks like a slew of Chastain’s summer series shows are about to go on sale, so be sure to check those out at [...]
Put away those boots and coats – Spring is on the way! This weekend is going to be great for the typical early signs of warmer weather that Atlanta relishes in (take that, New York!). We’ll be taking full advantage of the lack of frigid temperatures by hanging out at the annual Steamhouse Lounge Oysterfest [...]

Hope everyone is doing fine battling the crazy “snow storm” we got last night. No? It’s pretty much all melted now? Oh well, it was pretty and unobtrusive while it lasted, which is all we can really ask for. Because that means nothing has been postponed/canceled and we can all go and rock out this [...]
- Get your Duckie shoes out, put on your homemade pink prom dress and prepare to dance to some retro electro sounds because ’80s synth masters O.M.D. are coming to The Loft on March 14. – British Sea Power like to change from angular rock to sweeping gestures, but no matter what you’re going to [...]
Brrrr! Looks like we might finally be coming out of this insane cold snap/winter storm tomorrow, which means we’ll all want to be out in full force to be rocking and rolling to the limit. There are some killer shows being served up for you this weekend, and the on sales tell us we also [...]

Picture Book & Live Review: Matthew Mayfield @ Eddie’s Attic June 14th
By Lindsey Borders Ever since Matthew Mayfield began his journey over 11 years ago, his performances get better with each live show he performs, acoustically or with a full band. I prefer him acoustic because he’s genuine, raw, and vulnerable with his audience; especially if there’s a great turn-out. Which there was with Matthew’s CD [...]
Picture Book & Review: Billy Idol @ The Tabernacle June 11th!
Billy Idol still has it…sneer and all. 80’s MTV icon Billy Idol played to a packed Tabernacle audience on Tuesday, June 11th. The crowd consisted of former rockers and suburban housewives with their teenage kids, proving to them that mom was once “cool”. If you came to hear the “Billy Idol Experience”, you got it [...]
Picture Book & Review: Sting @ Chastain Park Amphitheater June 10th!
Photos & Review by Hillery Terenzi I admit that I was a little concerned Monday morning when dark clouds were covering the Atlanta sky, but the music gods must’ve known Sting would be playing Chastain Amphitheater that night. The nearly sold out crowd was a mixture of young and old, tattooed and preppy and I [...]

Interview: Charlie Mars; Playing @ Eddie’s Attic June 20th!
Charlie Mars’ recently released album, Like A Bird, Like A Plane is his fifth studio record, but can be best described as a new debut. Over 11 songs, Mars hits a groove that does not signify any specific genre but instead is hardwired to hearts and hips. This is an album that writhes through the [...]
5GB Interview: Marc Broussard playing at People’s Fest 2013 in Atlantic Station, 6/22
Marc Broussard is an artist with a unique gift of channeling the spirits of classic R&B, rock and soul into contemporary terms. Throughout his life, Broussard has been tapped as a talent to watch. Marc’s song “Home” was successful at radio and catapulted him onto the national touring stage. His music has been placed in [...]
Interview: RAC & Penguin Prison; Playing @ The Basement June 15th!
RAC stand for Remix Artist Collective. They’ve built a fanbase on a whole lot of remixes (200+) for all kinds of artists. A few years ago Karl and Andre started DJ’ing all across the globe. Recently, Andre wrote a song with Penguin Prison and put it out through Green Label Sound. That song is the [...]
5GB Interview: Jacuzzi Boys; Playing the EARL Saturday, June 8th!
By Jhoni Jackson As far as bands on Instagram go, Jacuzzi Boys (@jacuzziboys) are among the best. Well, maybe enviable is more accurate. Their feed is full of goofiness, rockin’ and rollin’ and, you know, the occasional hang sesh with Iggy Pop. Onstage, however, they’re not so silly. The trio rips through their psych-laced garage [...]
5GB Interview: Stephen Kellogg; Playing @ Eddie’s Attic June 6th!
Although his music has been described as Americana, Country-Rock, Folk, Singer/Songwriter, and, somehow, pop, Stephen Kellogg has always thought of it as American-rock n’ roll. It’s a product of his father’s record collection, from Jim Croce and Cat Stevens to Eagles and The Band. Somewhere along the way, he fell in love with showmanship and [...]
5GB Interview: Eric Sardinas; Playing @ Smith’s Olde Bar June 7th!

Known for his electric live performances, we couldn’t help but get excited when we heard he was coming to town. Atlanta Music Guide caught up with the guitarist before the big gig. Check out what he [...]
