A Familiar Pair

August 1, 2019August 1, 2019 Every Show JoeArizona, Folk, Indie Rock, Kitty Kat Fan Club, Phoenix, Ska, Ska Punk, Streetlight Manifesto, The Van Buren

How often do you see a two band show? I feel like it is rare that any show I attend isn’t a minimum of three. However, that is exactly what happened on Streetlight Manifesto’s latest trip to Phoenix with Kitty Kat Fan Club. Although with bands this good, two is a good number. Our openers were Kitty Kat Fan Club, a familiar group to anyone who went to the last times that Streetlight Manifesto or Koo Koo Kanga Roo came to town. I was in attendance at both, though felt…

Artist Spotlight Concerts

Artist Spotlight: Potty Mouth

July 26, 2019July 26, 2019 Every Show JoeArizona, Indie Rock, Phoenix, Pop Punk, Potty Mouth, Punk, Trunk Space

In my latest artist spotlight, it is a case for why you show up early for every band. I first saw Potty Mouth as part of the tour with Skating Polly. Skating Polly was a band I was recommended prior, but had not had a chance to watch live before. Though before those guys played there was this band called Potty Mouth. They are an all-girl four piece live, and three piece otherwise, that brought an enthusiasm to the stage. They played a pop punk brand of music with fantastic…

Frenetic, Fast Paced Fun

July 24, 2019July 25, 2019 Every Show JoeAlternative Rock, Amyl and the Sniffers, Arizona, DOMS, Garage Rock, Heavy Breather, Indie Punk, Indie Rock, Man Hands, Phoenix, Punk, Rhythm Room

Have you ever heard a song and immediately were enamored with it? Hearing Amyl and the Sniffers song “GFY” for the first time on the Jonah Raydio podcast was just that. After that, I immediately jumped over to Spotify to listen to the rest of the self-titled album that it came from. The energy and sound grabbed me song after another on it. Of course, luck would have it they would be in town about a month after with a rad group of locals. Up first is a band I…

A Swagger Their Own

There are bands that you think the world of when you hear them. You want to catch them live anytime you can. Then, something happens and they disappear. Sometimes that is it, but in others they continue on. The latter is the case with Harper and the Moths, who since their last album release have had a little turnover in their ranks. The changes and break only further makes it wonderful they are back, with new music and bolstered by a strong set of bands on their album release night.…

Come For A Pair of Bands, Get a Pair More

July 15, 2019July 24, 2019 Every Show JoeAlternative Rock, Arizona, Folk, Heart Attack Man, Indie Rock, Phoenix, Pop Punk, Punk, Rebel Lounge, Rome Hero Foxes, Sincere Engineer, Troubled Minds

There are musicians from the first song you know that you just want to keep listening to after. On a tour last year with Lawrence Arms and Red City Radio, there was a solo musician called Sincere Engineer. She came out with not only catchy and well written verses, but an honest stage presence that played well with the Phoenix crowd. She is one of those musicians that you look forward to catching once you’ve heard her. This time around she brought her full band alongside co-headliners Heart Attack Man,…
