Picture Book and Live Review – Rosco Bandana @ Smith’s Olde Bar – February 8th, 2013
Photos and Review by Chandler Mays Rosco Bandana is a little bit of folk, a little bit of soul, a little bit o’ blues, and a lot of rock ‘n’ roll! Their spirited performance at Smith’s Olde Bar on friday was a rollicking good time, and the perfect way to start the weekend. Hailing from […]

Picture Book & Live Review: Hijacking Music Festival @ 529 – December 8th, 2012
Photos and Review by Chandler Mays This year’s Hijacking Music Festival went off without a hitch, and was nothing less than astounding.

Picture Book & Live Review: Soup w/ Jessica Cayne @ Smith’s Olde Bar, 11/10/12
Photos and Review by Chandler Mays It’s a strange, yet very satisfying feeling that occurs when you show up to a sold out show for a band you’ve never heard of. I do pride myself on having a fairly eclectic knowledge of modern music, but as it turns out, I was blissfully ignorant of the […]
Picture Book & Live Review: The Dirty Guv’nahs and The Delta Saints @ The Loft – November 2nd, 2012

Picture Book and Review: Ha Ha Tonka @ Smith’s Olde Bar – September 14th, 2012
Photos and Review by Chandler Mays Ha Ha Tonka is a Missouri band that definitely knows how to cook up a stellar rock song. Their headlining set at Smith’s Olde Bar last friday served as an intoxicating lesson in Southern rock and gospel folk music for a rowdy group of Georgians. They reminded us that […]
