Review: Squid @ 9:30 Club – 2/08/24 [Photos]
If you want to know what it’s like to watch musicians play with their instruments as if they were toys in a toy box, look no further than Squid. The UK quintet broke through in 2019 with the single “Houseplants,” propelled by drummer/vocalist Ollie Judge’s frantic drumming and panicked, scream-level vocal delivery. It could be…

Jessie Ware’s album That! Feels Good! is out now on EMI Records Can you fault Jessie Ware for wanting to keep a good party going?

Review: Jeff Rosenstock sells out an energetic 930 Club: Photos
HELLMODE is out now on Polyvinyl Records Jeff Rosenstock is a man who has always worn his heart on his sleeve, spilling his guts out in his live shows as much as he does in his writing. He has long been considered one of the paragons of DIY for the last decade or so, whether…

Review: My Morning Jackets rips through DC’s The Anthem: Photos
MMJ’s new live album is out on ATO Records For over 20 years, My Morning Jacket has been one of the most relentless rock bands touring the country, and even for those just jumping on board now, it’s not hard to see why. Their blend of Americana, rock, and jam came at the perfect time…

Re:SET DMV 2023 @ Merriweather Post Pavilion: Review
It’s been a while since a traveling ‘festival’ made waves. Warped Tour was a cultural monolith that is still remembered fondly today. AEG might be angling to fill that void with Re:SET, a nationwide touring concert series. Here’s how it works: throughout each weekend in June, AEG chose three geographically close metro areas to host…

Review: Sylvan Esso @ The Anthem – 8/11/2023: Photos
Wild analog electronic wizards, Sylvan Esso are at it again. Thanks to last year’s No Rules Sandy, Amelia Meath and Nick Sanborn’s third show at The Anthem was their most fun yet. Their fourth album is the duo at their most improvisational and musically liberated, splicing chopped-up vocals and synths alongside acoustic guitars and field…

Review: Altin Gün @ Howard Theatre – 7/28/2023: Photos
The sounds of 1960s and 70s-era Turkey, distilled through synths, electric guitars, and of course, the saz, make for some great psych-rock music that’s become a hit on both sides of the Atlantic. Who knew? What started as a Facebook ad in Amsterdam looking for Turkish musicians has turned into, Altin Gün, a globe-trotting unit…

Review: Caroline Polachek @ The Anthem – 5/19/2023 [Photos]
Desire, I Want To Turn Into You is out now on Perpetual Novice. Nobody in pop has both the weirdo credentials and voice that Caroline Polachek has. She’s intrigued listeners over the years as one-half of Chairlift, as the electronic/ambient Ramona Lisa (her post-Chairlift solo project), and as a person yelling at a flock of geese.…
