After making waves last fall at CMJ, just fresh off of tour supporting Panic at the Disco, an EP released a couple of weeks ago (Feb. 4), working on their full length, and preparing for SXSW, Mark Solomich and Erik Ratensperger are two very busy individuals. Mark and Erik formed the Brooklyn-based music duo Junior…
Roky Erickson with Black Angels at Terminal West
My two roommates and I went to see Roky Erickson. We were anxious to see what kind of people would be at a show featuring Roky Erickson (obviously The Black Angels headlined). We walked in behind a middle-aged double date. One of the women was wearing gold metallic go-go boots. Of course, The Black Angels…
Axxa/Abraxas: ‘Axxa/Abraxas’
Sometimes, you have to learn to be happy exactly where you are. And, thankfully, once in a blue moon, musical acts like Axxa/Abraxas emerge and remind me again why I’m so proud to be living in Athens, Georgia. The project of University of Georgia alum Ben Asbury is a unique blend of music and art…

A Roadside Chat with The Grahams
Pulled over on the side of a dirt road somewhere south of the Georgia gnat line, I got the chance to speak with Alyssa and Doug Graham of NYC-based Americana band The Grahams (yes, they are a couple. Yes, we find that to be pretty awesome). While this situation may scream of poor planning, I…
An Interview with Lowbanks
Fresh out of Atlanta comes garage-rock group Lowbanks, the grungy brain child of John Graffo, Christian Self and Grey Duddleston. With the release of their single “TREATZ”, we experience a drugged-up, early punk revival, simultaneously calling to mind Dead Kennedys and Blink-182. Will the rest of the new EP have the same modern-yet-nostalgic feel? We…
