Boys Night Out

Got to catch Boys Night out at The Beacham and meet some of the Boys themselves! Great guys and very much looking forward to their 2nd tour later this year!

Nasty

The gents in Nasty put on an absolute NASTY show (pardon the pun). Been a while since I’ve been a hardcore show and it had my metal roots feeling incredibly nostalgic.

LF System

I had the pleasure of catching LF System back stage at their Orlando show! I’ve been to several DJ’d sets around Orlando, but this was my first time catching LF and being at Elixir. Both definitely did not disappoint!

Cuarteto de Nos at House of Blues! ¡Que cool!

Counterparts

Counterparts is becoming a February tradition here that I am so happy with. One of the best heavy bands around and always a pleasure to work with them.

Moontricks

If you had told me that a band with banjos, dance beats, and harmonica solos would work so well, I would not have believed you prior to Moontricks. A wonderful blend of folk and contemporary music and a joy to catch live. A special thanks to Sean for taking the time to chat after the performance as well!

MONO / Kaelan Mikla

In another rare, but greatly appreciated double feature, I was able to catch the incredibly talented MONO as well as Kaelan Mikla. I always buy merch from the bands when I come to shows, and for both acts I opted for vinyl records. They both create incredibly atmospheric music, albeit with different energies, that I just had to hear crackle on my turntable.

Folk Alliance 2025

Cecile was apart of a panel over the weekend at the 2025 Folk Alliance Conference! Between Abyan from Covey Law’s legal prowess, Danielle’s experience as a booking agent/manager, and Cecile’s godmother status with CWAs, they discussed visas for international performing artists (pictured center, left and right respectively)! Thanks to Folk Alliance for having them!

James & The Cold Gun

Danna and I had the pleasure of catching James & The Cold Gun. They were incredible on stage, and incredibly nice off stage too, when we got to chat at their merch table! Don’t take my word for it though, here are Danna’s thoughts:

“James & the Cold Gun’s concert was such a wonderful surprise! Their energy on stage was incredible—they put on an amazing opening show, gave it their all, and kept the excitement soaring from start to finish. After the show, We had the chance to meet them in person, and they couldn’t have been kinder or more welcoming. It was a truly special night—such a perfect way to wrap up Valentine’s week! 💖”

Black Tiger Sex Machine

I’ve been seeing BTSM at festivals for years but this was my first time getting to catch them at a dedicated venue and meet Julian and Patrick in person! Both were absolute gents and incredible hosts. Thank you to the Vanguard staff as well for hosting a great event for an incredible group!
