Concert Reviews
Waterparks @ Jannus Live – St. Petersburg, FL
Upon entering the outdoor venue of Jannus Live for a last-minute sold-out date of Waterparks’ The Property Tour, it was hard not to be overwhelmed by the color red. Everywhere you turned, there was a fan with dyed red hair. Or a fan sporting a red tour hoodie (even though it was 88 degrees outside). […]
Cimafunk @ The Roxy – Los Angeles, Ca
Only eight months have passed since Cimafunk’s last performance in Los Angeles, but it has felt like an eternity for his fans. Last time he was seen in the area, he opened for Chucho Valdes at the Hollywood Bowl, which was a delicacy for any Cuban music aficionado. There is something addictive in his afro-cuban […]
The Band Camino @ Manchester O2 Ritz – Manchester, U.K.

The Heavy @ The Troubadour – Los Angeles, Ca
Leaving their gloomy London for a minute, The Heavy embarked on a world tour in late March to promote their new album Amen released in April. On May 16th, they stopped by the legendary Troubadour in West Hollywood for the first of two shows in sunny Los Angeles. After quickly selling out the night of […]
