Last night I went with a couple friends to the Urban Lounge here in Salt Lake City to see Josh Ritter and Langhorne Slim.
It was amazing.
I downloaded some Langhorne Slim music last week- they have a really good sound, but I am not completely sold.  One thing for sure is the band did a really [...]

The whole lineup is now available. I was already excited about M.Ward, Jenny Lewis, and The Black Keys. I just found out about Iron and Wine and Robert Randolph and the Family Band. What an incredible lineup!

One of the best things about living in Salt Lake City is the Twilight Concert Series put on every year by the Salt Lake City Arts Department.  All summer long, these amazing acts come in to town and put on free shows in the Gallivan Center plaza- and the City picks up the bill.
A few [...]

For about 3 weeks now, I have been trying to solve a constant migraine that has plagued me.  In part of my searching, I went to a chiropractor. I am not going to lay in to whether or not chiropractors are real doctors (which they are not) or whether or not they do a good [...]

I think The Wallflowers were an extremely under appreciated band.  They got lots of good radio play for Bringing Down the Horse, but commercial radio ignored all their subsequent work.  That is why commercial radio sucks.  Now we have a new chance for them to suck, with something new for them to ignore.
Jakob Dylan (frontman [...]

I haven’t done a new music review in a while.  The sad truth is I haven’t been listening to that much music.  I haven’t been listening to much besides the voices in my head.
But a few weeks ago, I came across She & Him.  The Him is M. Ward, one of my favorite mod-folk songwriters.  [...]

Last week, K-Diddy was offered 8 free tickets to the upcoming New Kids on the Block concert.  So of course, we went.  We went purely as a joke, and boy did it pay off.  It was hilarious.
Picture your average boy-band, add 15 years (making them all about 40) and there you have it.  We were [...]

Last night Amber and I went to the Twilight Concert Series where Josh Ritter was performing.  I discovered Josh about 3 months ago, and I am hooked.  I can tell he was inspired by some of my other favorites (Dylan, Tom Waits… and do I hear some Leonard Cohen?)  But that doesn’t stop him from [...]

Its been a while since I have posted one of my incredibly insightful music reviews, so here it goes.
I have been listening to M. Ward a lot lately. There seems to be a bit of a neo-folk-indie-rock movement going on , and he is at the center of it all. I first heard [...]

Time for new music monday–one day late.
I have been listening to this album non-stop lately. Rilo Kiley (with front woman Jenny Lewis) has a new album called “Under the Blacklight”.
The highlight is the first track, called “Silver Lining”. Go over to their website to hear the whole track.
What I like about Kiley is [...]
