Photos and review by Jenna Hughes Every once in a while an artist comes along that is refreshingly different from the norm, and Jessta James certainly is that. The Montana native brought his unique blend of country, hip-hop and rock to Atlanta this past Tuesday night. Playing with an impressive backing band that included a […]
Photos and Review by Chandler Mays This year’s Hijacking Music Festival went off without a hitch, and was nothing less than astounding. For ten straight hours, I treated my eardrums to some monumental sonic shenanigans within the cozy confines of East Atlanta Village’s famous 529 Bar. The layout was perfect with a stage on both […]
