As a performer, sought-after singer-songwriter and executive at the successful Nashville based record label and publishing company, Better Angels Music, Gary Ray is a music biz triple-threat. He is no stranger to the Atlanta scene, and is playing Peachtree Tavern, JUly 13th. He joined us for our 5GB series before the show. What’s the first […]
The ever-evolving and inventive musical creations of Atlanta’s Jungol have been purposefully kept from the usual touring environment so far this year. Besides their SXSW showcases, a couple local shows and a Dark Room set opening for POLICA, Jungol’s efforts have remained focused off the stage. The guys have been spending their time working hard […]
You know what? Do whatever you want today….it’s a free country and all….. -Have you seen The Whiskey Gentry live yet? If you haven’t then get your booties over to Smith’s Olde Bar to catch their 3-day “Twang-On 2!” They are recording these folks, so put on your best singing voice. –Everett James began his […]
Review by Ellen Eldridge Generally speaking, I don’t choose to spend my time listening to others bitch about religious freedom or political injustice. I delete those friends on Facebook who spread horrible pictures of abused animals and children, not because I am insensitive but because that’s the last thing I need upsetting me during […]

Tickets are on sale this Friday, July 13th at 10AM. -This fall, original members of Ben Folds Five (Ben Folds, Darren Jessee, Robert Sledge) will embark on worldwide dates for the […]
By Jhoni Jackson If Jerry Lee Lewis were on the up-and-up today, he’d have an intimidating rival in the Montreal-made one-man-show known as Bloodshot Bill. That’s because Bill’s boogie woogie bedrock is just as sturdy—but, unlike Lewis, Bill does it alone. It’s a one-man-show of grit and sweat and punk-bred fury to the beat of […]
Seriously? I think the heavens are upset…what is with all these storms? I am proud of our city though for still getting out and supporting the music community. Here are some fun events for tonight. -If you think you can brave the chance of rain again, then head over to Chastain Amp. where jazz singer/pianist, […]
Photos and Review by Chandler Mays Zach Deputy’s solo-acoustic set at Eddie’s Attic was the perfect way to start my Friday evening. The show was intimate, reverent, and strangely hilarious. Instead of live entertainment at a venue, it seemed more like Zach was a close friend who whipped out his guitar for an impromptu performance […]
I am proud to say that I have known The Whiskey Gentry’s lead singer, Lauren Staley (Morrow!) since we were just wee babes obsessed with England. After over more than a decade I have watched as this songbird played her first mini-gig to a bunch of drunken Germans, then drunken English, and now of course […]

Photos and Review by Chandler Mays Anyone who tries to spread the word about Lazer/Wulf always runs into the same problem: Explaining their sound. People throw around genre catchwords such as metal, jazz fusion, thrash, sludge, mathcore, aggressive, progressive, symphonic, melodic, evil-funk, avant-metal… the list goes on. Personally, I prefer to use the phrase “groove […]
OMG, is everyone ok? I think we could all become official stormchasers after all of that last night! Mother Nature sure did seem a little upset with us huh? There is a ton of great music happening tonight, so don’t be scared to go out and shake what you got. -Hippy’s and Trustafarians unite tonight […]
By Jhoni Jackson If Troma Entertainment had wanted a band on retainer for its raunchier early ‘70s flicks, Paint Fumes would have easily been a go-to group. While they look a little glam at times—mostly because frontman Elijah Von Cramon often sports neck scarves, patterned blouses and other accoutrement excavated from the prettier aspects of […]
Good Morning sweet Atlanta music-heads! It’s a quiet day in the city, but as many of you are probably just coming back from vacation, it’s probably a good idea to rest a bit…Here are some events that you might want to check out today. -You should just go ahead and schedule it on your iCal. […]
By Vince Bailey Hip hop is universal. The demographics surrounding the music can never be identified within a simple box stating, “this kind of person is the typical hip hop fan or artist”. Watsky and Dumbfoundead proved that Friday night with a sold out concert at the Drunken Unicorn in their Atlanta leg of the […]
