Gig Reviews

Fest 16 ushered in the newest generation of DIY emo/punk. Joey Tobin was there and took some beautiful photographs that captured some of that energy. Featuring photos of Mom Jeans, Just Friends, Fossil Youth, Walter Etc., and many more!

Julien’s stop at Town Hall on October 27th, with Half Waif and Petal, was beautiful night of acknowledging the feelings of being scared and hopeless but working to mitigate those feeling and be more optimistic and hopeful. Check out Rebecca's review of the show and her beautiful photographs

Midway through their 'As You Please' record release tour, Citizen played at Irving Plaza on October 26th, supported by Great Grandpa and Sorority Noise. Rebecca took some awesome photos and wrote up a review!

Vundabar kicked off their “Drew Is In BIG Trouble” tour on October 24th at BSP Kingston with Top Nachos and Dolly Spartans, two New Paltz bands, and it was amazing.

Rebecca was able to see The Wonder Years play at Le Poisson Rouge, wrote a review of the show, and took some awesome photos. Check our her gig review and these amazing images.

Ali was at the Cayetana release show for their new album New Kind of Normal and was able to take some awesome photos along with videos of them playing the tracks 'Mesa' and 'Serious Things Are Stupid'.

The Diet Cig tour, currently accompanied by Daddy Issues - is a nightly display of radical softness.

FEST 15 was a glorious blur of tacos, sweat, and internet friends. These were some of our favorite sets.

Most shows have the same format, opener, opener, headliner. It's about time somebody tries to mix that up and "playlist" shows might be just the thing.

Brand New played through their legendary 2006 record "The Devil and God Are Raging Inside Me" last Friday and they did not disappoint.

Unlike most other bands where I feel satisfied for a good while after seeing them perform, I cannot wait to see Nothing again because I now feel that it’s the only real way to experience their music.

The emotions that come with seeing your favorite artist for the first time can be overwhelming. Eli finally saw Alex G, read his review.
