Join us for The Dead of Summer Music Festival 3 at scenic Magic Mountain Ski Area in Londonderry Vermont happening July 9th, 2022. Gates open at 11am music starts at noon. Five great bands, one low price. This is a rain or shine event.

You don’t often hear about an artist reinventing their sound twenty albums into a celebrated career. But for Todd Snider, his latest release, First Agnostic Church of Hope and Wonder (2021), isn’t so much a sudden change in direction as an arrival after years of searching.

Aftershock--the West Coast’s Biggest Rock Festival--returns to Discovery Park in Sacramento, CA on October 6-9, 2022 bigger than ever, expanding to four full days (after a half 4th day in 2021), adding a 4th music stage and featuring over 90 bands. The latest edition aims to top 2021’s record-setting, sold-out attendance of 145,000, which marked five consecutive sold out events for Aftershock.

Frank Sinatra walks into a bar...

Well, Frank called it a “bistro,” and Jilly’s on 52nd Street even had matchbooks that when opened read, “My favorite bistro — Frank Sinatra.” Jilly’s also featured Frank’s “favorite saloon singer,” Bobby Cole, who held court there for many years. His other gigs around New York landed him a recording contract with Columbia, but the 1960 release from the Bobby Cole Trio, while well reviewed, failed to gain traction. It featured no original material from Cole, and was essentially a recorded version of his Jilly’s act — one hard to capture on LP.

Not many bands can claim genuine legend status. The Wailers comfortably claim their place in essential music history. Their music was, and is, culture-defining: rebel hearts with brave souls embodying the spirit of 70s era-defining reggae.

Today, Ethan Miller's Silver Current Records releases Chris Robinson and Howlin Rain's studio-recorded debut together in the form of a special limited edition 7-inch of two rip-roaring Mott the Hoople covers: "Sucker" and "Death May Be Your Santa Claus."
