It is no secret that Foals are one of my favorite bands right now. They’re a great example of why I love living in Atlanta. The band plays massive festivals in the UK, but play a venue like The Goat Farm Arts Center here. Check out this video of Inhaler from their performance on March [...]

There are musicians and artists in this world who sometimes like to keep a low profile and we can certainly respect that. Jonathan Richman is one of those private folks, so in lieu of an interview, we are going to provide you with a little show preview. Jonathan Richman is playing at The Goat Farm [...]
Photos by Chandler Mays and Jason Perlman, Review by Chandler Mays The Goat Farm is a magical place, and is without a doubt Atlanta’s most inspiring music venue. For those of you who haven’t seen it, The Goat Farm is an arts center community located amongst rundown 19th century industrial buildings in West Midtown. The [...]

If you’re a football fan and a music fan like me, then this is our last weekend to fully and entirely devote ourselves to the music scene! College football starts up on Thursday and our weekends are about to get busy! So let’s enjoy this weekend and put off the balancing act for a few [...]
By Gini Strobel When most of us think about carnivals and circuses, cheesy clowns and lion tamers come to mind. While the major circus companies have taken on more of a Disney-like spin, there are a few groups trying to recreate the original sideshow style, dust bowl, carnival attractions. Circuses were created hundreds of years [...]
NME Magazine named Athen’s based indie rockers, Reptar, one of the most buzzed about bands this year at SWSX.

Thurston Moore By David Courtright; photo by Michael Koenig (full gallery HERE) Thurston Moore may well be the Renaissanciest man in indie rock. Aside from being the songwriter and guitarist for what many consider to be the pivotal band in the evolution of indie rock music, Moore also moonlights as a director, National Geographic channel [...]

Things are a little mellow this weekend, probably with everyone gearing up for the big Turkey Fest coming up next week. But there is still a ton of incredible shows, and a donka-truck-tonnage of tickets going on sale, so you can get some Christmas shopping done too (and pick yourself up something nice while you’re [...]

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 [...]

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 [...]
