Texas southern-rock band Whiskey Myers celebrated the release of their 5th studio album, Tornillo, the best way they knew how. By playing a rock and roll show. It would feel like a disservice if the band celebrated any other way. A party thrown by the label or their management company doesn’t feel like their scene, […]

Concert Recap: Koe Wetzel Keeps the Summer Hot at Concrete Street Amphitheater
July 24, 2022 by Leave a Comment
When you see an artist live multiple times, two things can happen. The first is that the artist gets comfortable, doesn’t change things up as much, and you end up just seeing the same show multiple times over the course of a few years. The other is that an artist can keep things unpredictable and […]

July 4, 2022 by Leave a Comment
Maybe that title should’ve been the lead for this article but oh well, it works in either scenario. The week of my birthday, Willie Nelson and promotion company Blackbird Presents announced the lineup for Willie’s now annual Outlaw Music Festival. The lineup for the full tour strikes a solid balance of fresh faces like Zach […]

May 12, 2022 by Leave a Comment
My first semester as a writer and a concert photographer for this station ended in a full-circle moment for me. This was an extremely sentimental show for me as the Randy Rogers Band is the reason why I love Texas Country and Red Dirt music. I remember vividly hearing the album Trouble for the first […]

As a self-diagnosed festival addict, Austin City Limits has been one of the weekends I look forward to the most every year. My first year going was in 2018 and from the moment I walked into the park, I was hooked. 2022 will be my fourth time attending the festival and the lineup is once […]

In 2018, William Clark Green threw a festival at Cook’s Garage. The main goal in mind was to raise money for the High Cotton Relief Fund, Green’s charity benefitting panhandle farmers in need. Now in its 4th year, the festival is still going strong and even before the music started on Friday, Green had raised […]
Album Review: “Labyrinthitis” by Destroyer
April 21, 2022 by Leave a Comment
Doing this review made me realize something I was not aware of. Destroyer, the brainchild of Canadian singer-songwriter Dan Bejar, has been going strong for almost 30 years now. The reason I say this is because each time a new Destroyer album drops, it feels like Dan is still finding ways to push forward and […]

One of the most beloved bands to come out of the Lubbock Texas Country scene, Flatland Cavalry kicked off Cook’s Garage’s outdoor concert season on Saturday night. I do want to say something real quick before I go in-depth about the show. There are going to be a lot more pictures than I usually post […]

Returning to Lubbock for the first time since the COVID-19 pandemic took over, Whiskey Myers tried their absolute hardest to burn the Buddy Holly Hall down over the course of their two-hour set. One of my classes this semester is News Writing and in that class, I’ve been told many many times that one of […]
Album Review: “WHO CARES?” by Rex Orange County
April 3, 2022 by Leave a Comment
One of indie pop’s brightest stars, Rex Orange County has gone from a cult favorite to now one of the genre’s biggest names. I remember the first time I heard him. It was over the summer a few years ago and while on the ride home, the song Loving is Easy came on the AltNation […]
