Concert Review – The Beths at Thalia Hall
Eric Leventhal also contributed to this story. New Zealand quartet The Beths played two sold-out shows at Chicago’s Thalia Hall this weekend. The second show was added due to overwhelming demand. We arrived at the venue shortly before doors opened, and the line was around the block. The Beths are comprised of Elizabeth Stokes on…
An Interview with Mamalarky
Recently, we went downtown to catch a show at Schuba’s Tavern. The headliner act, Mamalarky, is incredibly hard to pin down. They have elements of Indie Rock, and of Psychedelic Pop, but don’t fit neatly into either genre. There’s a wondrous, captivating thread of Avant Garde that weaves in and out of their music, stitching…
The Al Stewart Interview
There are so few songwriters who can truly create word pictures or incorporate complex subjects into their songs. Cat Stevens, Paul Simon, Donald Fagen, and Bernie Taupin come to mind. Perhaps John Lennon or Bruce Springsteen as story tellers. But if you want someone else who absolutely belongs on that lofty list, look no further…
An Interview with Torrin Daniels of Kitchen Dwellers
The stars must have been in perfect alignment, when Daniels met future bandmate Shawn Swain on the first day of classes at Montana State in Bozeman. “He sat down next to me and we started talking about bluegrass and playing music. He told me he played mandolin, and I told him that I played as…

Concert Review – Nick Mason at the Paramount Theatre in Denver
former Pink Floyd drummer brings his Saucerful of Secrets tour to North America “I got tired of waiting after twenty years for David (Gilmour) or Roger (Waters) to ring me up, so put my own band together,” explains the seventy-five year-old founding member of Pink Floyd. The ensemble includes long-time Pink Floyd and David Gilmour…

Will 2019 Be The Year Bryson DeChambeau Wins A Major?
Pro golfer Bryson DeChambeau probably has as much in common with Bill Nye the Science Guy as he does with fellow golfer Bill Hass. He majored in Physics at Southern Methodist University, and thus takes a very scientific approach to the game of golf. The most noticeable way DeChambeau has put his intellect to use,…

And now he’s recounting his experiences as interviewer, emcee, and observer. The book is called “We Have Company: Four Decades of Rock and Roll Encounters.” Rock music…

The former Creedence Clearwater Revival frontman is doing what a a number of popular musicians have been doing lately, that is headline a residency in one of the many performance venues in Las Vegas. That was what led to an opportunity to interview Fogerty. The offer was too good to pass up, and John was…
Ray Manzarek Dead at 74 – Audio Interview from 1994
Author’s note: It’s been three years since Ray passed away. We bring you our old interview once again…. I was saddened to hear of Doors’ keyboardist Ray Manzarek’s passing. He died in Germany after a long battle with cancer. While Jim Morrison may always be the public face of the band, Manzarek and guitarist Robby…
