The Electric Sons are an Atlanta indie/electronic band founded by vocalist/guitarist, Andrew Miller and keyboardist/vocalist, Ben Richards. The band formed in 2011 when Miller left his job as an illustrator for the FX Network series, “Archer,” to team up with Richards, an advertising graduate of Savannah College of Art and Design. Miller and Richards quickly […]
It’s the start of a new week Atlanta and boy, are we ready to rock! Tonight’s schedule is pretty light, but with all the awesome shows and festivals ahead, that may just be EXACTLY what we need! With the highly anticipated Party in the Park this Saturday, May 18, we’ve got to get some rest […]
By: Shelby Lum Most likely because of the infamous Bob Marley, most (including myself) associate reggae with Jamaica, yet island culture doesn’t just stop in Jamaica, and Collie Buddz is changing the image. “Growing up in Bermuda, reggae was all I listened to,” Collie Buddz said. After he began attending Full Sail University in Florida, he began making his […]
By Shelby Lum Atlanta’s music scene is just as diverse as its residents. This weekend, pop into the Basement for a wild set from Michal Menert (Bassnectar after-party) or find intimate music at The Earl with Torres. One of Atlanta’s unique venues will have exactly what ya want. And don’t forget those delicious burgers and snacks at […]
By Sarah Edelstein & JJ Posway Lorin Ashton, aka Bassnectar, has become a staple in the American EDM scene. He is “the original long hair behind the tables,” amassing an enormous fan base and having sold over 220k tickets to his solo shows alone in 2012.

When does a musician finally hit upon his or her particular “sound”? For some, it bursts forth from their body fully formed; for others, it takes months or sometimes years of trial-and-error. For Mackenzie Scott, the singer-songwriter from Nashville who performs under the name Torres, the foundation and framework of her distinctive sound were already […]
Album Review by Rosie Judd This record almost snuck past me. A friend recommended it to me 2 days before it came out, with the preface that I would fall in love with it, even though I couldn’t own it yet. They were right. I knew nothing about Mikal Cronin. I didn’t know that he […]

After multiple calls from friends, “Are you really going out in this” – I threw on my 8-year-old rain boots (note- they also look like an 8 year-old child’s rain […]
