Read MoreOn the evening of December 8th, 2023, bugsy (and friends) took to the 7th St Entry stage in celebration of their newly anticipated EP, “Now I Spend All Of My Time Alone”. I was lucky upon my arrival to have secured a spot front and center, as I had just received word that they officially sold out the show a few hours before doors.

Everyone involved in the making of this project (producer, mixer, and recorder Abe Anderson included), I hope feel incredibly accomplished. I personally feel really lucky to have been able to enjoy bugsy’s music since their inception, as well as consider them my friends.
Read MoreOn Saturday, July 18th, I attended KYM’s “Better Late than Never” show celebrating the second year anniversary of the “Not 4 U” EP. With the hopes of an EP release show in 2020 being dashed by Covid - Kim Schneider (vocals and guitar) did not give up on sharing and celebrating her hard work. “Thanks for waiting two years with me!” Kim called out to the fully packed room of friends, family, and fans at Icehouse. Kim was joined onstage by Drew D’lakes (bass), Riley Jacobson (drums), Alia Jeraj (vocals), and Dierdre McQuillan (vocals). “March 2020 I released an EP and think, “I'm gonna hold a big EP show!” and here we are two years later.” This celebration was, without a doubt, worth the wait. KYM was supported that evening by Foe and Dark Bunny.

Art-a-Whirl is a three day extravaganza celebrating art, creation, and local businesses in Northeast Minneapolis. Events are hosted at countless venues, drawing thousands of people who are interested in local music, visual art, food, and drinks - to name a few. The weather cooperated brilliantly, giving us beautiful weather over the weekend, allowing participants to enjoy exploring the event, trying out food from local food trucks, and sipping on beers and iced coffees comfortably.
