On a recent summer afternoon at the famous SIR Studios in Hollywood, a new Los Angeles band played an intimate showcase set, debuting some exciting tunes. As their name implies, Circle The Earth blends worldwide musical genres into an eclectic rock stew resulting in a unique and pleasing sound. At first, listen, it may sound like the hard-rocking band overpowers the magnificent vocals of lead singer Khadia Handon.

The Peach Music Festival casually moved into day four, with the Black Crowes and The Word headlining this final day. Clear skies allowed the music to rage with out a hitch. Many folks left early today, and the crowd density was much less.

Day three is when the magic happens at festivals and this year was no exception at the Peach Music Festival in Scranton, Pa. The weather behaved for the most part, which allowed the schedule to blossom with creativity. Trey Anastasio Band, Goose and The Revivalists were the headliners on the Peach Stage.

The tenth annual Peach Music Festival continued at Montage Mountain on Friday, July 1st, with a full slate of talented artists and three stages of music.

Tradition is often what defines a people as a culture and all tradition is born out of habit. Some habits are good and some not so much, while others are just plain bad ass. Like Widespread Panic and their annual multi-day runs at Red Rocks Amphitheatre, another staple can be counted on at the world’s most iconic and scenic outdoor venue.

The tenth annual Peach Music Festival kicked off at Montage Mountain in Scranton, Pa last Thursday, June 30th.

Jerry Garcia’s 80th birthday celebration was celebrated a little bit early last night at Red Rocks Amphitheatre. Some birthdays are just too big, so when the stars align you just do it. Jerry was born on August 1st, 1942, and sadly departed planet earth on August 9th, 1995. He will always live in our hearts, minds and souls. Jerry was a beacon of light and inspiration moving brightly through our lives.

The funk was alive at Riverfront Live in Cincinnati on Sunday, June 26, when George Clinton brought the One Nation Under A Groove Tour to town.

The indie groove quintet Goose released their new album Dripfield on Saturday, June 25 to a sold out crowd at New York City's Radio City Music Hall. The show was the second of a two night stand, where both nights had three sets of music including a special acoustic first set.

Friday night, Widespread Panic returned once again to Red Rocks Amphitheatre for their annual celebratory get down.  As per the usual, the band performed to a sold out crowd on the opening night of three and brought their southern heat to the faithful.
