Photos and review by Jenna Hughes Alternative rockers Anberlin played The Loft in Atlanta on July 12th as part of their Acoustic Summer Tour. The band out of Orlando, Florida, treated fans to a rare, stripped down acoustic performance in support of their latest album, 2012’s Vital. The mood was set with low lighting provided […]

Photos & Review by: Deidra Pinion Have you ever heard the expression “Dynamite comes in small packages?” I believe that definitely applies to Emeli Sande. Her voice was so amazing, and it echoed through the Tabernacle. Emeli Sande did not let a little rain damper the evening, and neither did her fans. Emeli hails from […]
Photos by Hillery Terenzi, Review by JJ Posway Kitsch is tricky business. Being ironically kitschy only works when everyone knows that’s what you’re doing.

Photos & Review by Rosie Judd Special Guests: Del Venicci & Shannon and the Clams Being new to the world of Mikal Cronin, I wasn’t sure what to expect from his show at the Earl on Sunday night. School nights can be tricky in Atlanta. Sometimes a Sunday night crowd can be just as enthusiastic […]

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 […]
By: Hillery Terenzi 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”, […]
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 […]

Review by Molly Segers. Photos by Ken Lackner. Every show has a spark of feeling like you’re experiencing something special that the world is missing out on.

Review by: Molly Free I couldn’t think of a better way to kick off my Memorial Day weekend than cozying up in my favorite corner table at Eddie’s Attic for their Songwriter Series featuring my good and mucho talented friend, Ben Deignan with his special guests Jessica Cayne and Scotty Cram.
