  • “Walrus in Wonderland” Debuts in Brooklyn, A Psychedelic Triumph Through Alice’s Adventures

    On Thursday, October 26, in a mesmerizing fusion of musical prowess and theatrical artistry, Brooklyn’s own Walrus brought a Brooklyn Bowl audience on a transcendent journey through a musical reimagination of Lewis Carroll’s timeless Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland. The original production, “Walrus in Wonderland,” presented by Loop Toupe, delivered an immersive experience that blended the iconic sounds of the 60s psychedelic era with mesmerizing live dancers, enchanting costumes, and light show projections.

    Since forming in 2021 WALRUS has been on a mission to celebrate the psychedelic music of the Beatles and their contemporaries. From a weekly residency at Manhattan’s The Delancey, to becoming a regular presence at Brooklyn Bowl, Walrus has solidified their status as a cultural staple among New York area concert-goers.

    Led by the musical ingenuity of brothers Chris and Tom Mackin and collaborator Josh Santiago, the original soundtrack of “Walrus in Wonderland”  enveloped listeners in a psychedelic symphony that evoked the sonic oeuvre of the 1960s across the show’s 13 songs. The night’s standout performance was the debut of the Walrus original “Cheshire Cat” with groovy baselines and ripping solos that left the audience grinning from ear to ear. 

    During the show, Walrus band members Chris Mackin (Guitar/Vocals), Josh Santiago (Guitar/Vocals), Satoko Mori (Keyboard/Vocals), Dan Shein (Drums) and Sarah Elaz (Bass/Vocals) were joined by a roster of talented guest musicians including Will Corona, Michael Conklin, and Coco Solazzo who took attendees on a musical adventure down the rabbit hole.

    The debut performance was elevated by the visual spectacle projection-mapped by Ghost of Provence and seamlessly matched with dance choreography by the talented Megan Roe. Together, the ensemble delivered an experience that defied convention and brought attendees through the looking glass for an evening of unrivaled artistic immersion. “Walrus in Wonderland” was put on by the New York production company Loop Troupe, a group of artists presenting new and experimental material.

    Reflecting on opening night, Chris Mackin the show’s lead guitarist said, “It is incredible to see this cacophonous experience brought to life. Tom and I have talked for a long time about wanting to create a concert experience that went beyond the music and played to all of your senses. It is thrilling to watch audiences go on this multi-sensory adventure.”

  • Psymon Spine Release Kinetic Single “Boys” Ahead of Hometown Brooklyn Show

    Psymon Spine, a Brooklyn-based alt-pop group, recently embarked on their US tour, finishing with a hometown show at Alphaville on October 26. The group recently released their newest single, “Boys,” alongside an official music video on October 10.

    Psymon Spine

    Psymon Spine developed as members Noah Prebish and Peter Spears were in college, later adding Brother Michael to the group. Vocalist and former member Sabine Holler lends her voice to the new track, “Boys,” since her relocation to Berlin during the COVID-19 pandemic.

    “Boys” is an upbeat alt-pop track, featuring a new-wave-inspired melodic riff. The track features Sabine Holler’s light yet hypnotizing vocals against a synth-heavy dance rhythm. The group cites influences such as Talking Heads, Os Mutantes, and the NYC dance music scene.

    By nature every Psymon Spine song must be a little cheeky to bypass our own self-criticism, but in reality ‘Boys’ is just a very earnest song about friendship.

    Psymon Spine will make their way home for a show at Brooklyn’s Alphaville on October 26, as well as a show in Troy on November 8. The group will play new tracks like “Boys,” as well as hits from their most recent album, 2021’s Charismatic Megafauna. Tickets are on-sale now.

  • Kitchen Dwellers Has Announced 2024 “L.F.G. Tour” With Tour Closing Stops in Brooklyn and Syracuse

    Kitchen Dwellers, a genre-bending quartet from Bozeman, Montana, has announced their 2024 “L.F.G. Tour.”

    Kitchen Dwellers tour

    Included on the tour for Kitchen Dwellers are two performances at Brooklyn Bowl Williamsburg, and one performance at the Westcott Theater in Syracuse, which round out the tour in March and April, 2024.

    The quartet—Shawn Swain (mandolin), Torrin Daniels (banjo), Joe Funk (upright bass), and Max Davies (acoustic guitar)—twist bluegrass, folk, and rock through a kaleidoscope of homegrown stories, rich mythology, American West wanderlust, and psychedelic hues. 

    After amassing 5 million-plus streams, selling out shows, and receiving acclaim from Huffington Post, Relix, American Songwriter, Forbes, and more, the group brings audiences back for the ride on their third full-length album.

    Kitchen Dwellers’ Instagram

    In the past, the group’s songs touched on the physical surroundings of Wise River, a 30-mile long river running through the Southwestern region of Montana. This time, the band decided to dive deeper and talk about the issues everyone has faced after the pandemic in 2020.

    “The town of Wise River is basically a forgotten spot on the map. It used to be a thriving place with many prosperous mines, but now it’s practically dried up. There’s a hell of a lot of melancholy. In our mind, it symbolizes the overall feeling of being in slowed-down Montana life.”

    Shawn Swain (mandolin)

    Kitchen Dwellers share timeless American stories. Song topics vary from mental health issues in the music industry to the death of a friend. Everyone can find a song that speaks to them, and that shows the band’s expansive writing and musical skills, and how they’ve grown since their already musically-sound past albums Ghost In The Bottle and Muir Maid.

  • The Walkmen Play Kings Theatre, End 2023 Tour with Outstanding Show

    Legendary Indie Rock outfit The Walkmen played the final show of their 2023 tour at Kings Theatre on Tuesday, October 17 in Brooklyn. Longtime friend of the band and acclaimed Vampire Weekend alum Rostam Batmanglij opened the show. His setlist included a Vampire Weekend song, as well as songs from his solo projects.

    Rostam invited Walkmen founder and frontman Hamilton Leithauser onstage to join him for a few songs. The two had collaborated in 2016 for an album, and they played three songs from that record.

    To introduce “The Blizzard of ’96,” Hamilton brought his daughter out with a newspaper from the day of the blizzard.

    This show marked the end of The Walkmen’s reunion. After their 12 year break from playing live shows, the band reunited for a 2023 tour, which included five sold out nights at Webster Hall. Hamilton said after the final song at Kings, “This is goodbye for a little while. Not forever. But a little while.” Despite the bittersweet nature of this final show of their tour and reunion for 2023, fans left abuzz with joy.

    You can enjoy The Walkmen’s music here, and be sure to stay tuned for any tour announcements coming in “a little while.” Check out our photo gallery by David Reichmann below.

  • Daniel Donato brings his “Cosmic Country” to Brooklyn Bowl

    On the evening of Saturday, October 21, fans gathered at the legendary Brooklyn Bowl in Williamsburg to witness an unforgettable performance by Daniel Donato. The 1000 capacity venue was completely sold out as Daniel and his ensemble graced the stage, bringing his unique presentation, “Cosmic Country,” to the streets of Brooklyn.

    Daniel, who is currently in the midst of his fall tour, made a resounding statement by packing this iconic venue to the brim. The atmosphere was electric. Taking the stage promptly at 8:00 PM, Daniel showcased not just his musical talent but also the profound connection he shares with his audience. “Cosmic Country,” originally the title of one of his albums, has become more than just a moniker; it symbolizes a journey into the world of Americana, and the boundaries he pushes as he explores each song.

    Hailing from Nashville, Tennessee, Daniel had previously made guest appearances at this venue earlier this year with the Kitchen Dwellers, and his growing popularity as an original artist has also seen him collaborating with mainstream icons. Notably, he recently joined Grateful Dead drummer Bill Kreutzman for several of his recent shows, including the sold-out Pier 17 NYC performance in August, as well as performing with Bob Weir in his home state last year.

    https://youtu.be/lAOzVcLgoV8?si=mUMJR5Udcpu99M5t

    Daniel’s “Cosmic Country” experience takes the audience on a captivating journey, with his influences in jam band music shining through. It’s a blend of country and folk, infused with groovy and funky elements. The music is structured yet possesses an ethereal, space-like quality. The audience, in sync with the Cosmic Country vibe, sported cowboy, western, and psychedelic attire.

    A standout moment in the performance was when Scott Metzger, of Joe Russo’s Almost Dead fame, made a guest appearance during the first set. The energy in the venue was palpable as Daniel and Scott engaged in a musical duel, their notes creating a delightful exchange that resonated with the ecstatic audience. Throughout the night, Daniel’s ensemble band played an indispensable role in the evening’s success. Will Clark, commanding the drums, Nathan Aronowitz, who effortlessly alternated between keys and guitar, and Will McGee, holding down the bass, provided a solid musical foundation for the evenings journey.

    As the final set concluded, Daniel playfully bid the sold-out crowd a faux goodnight. The audience, buzzing with excitement, began chanting for an encore, and their enthusiasm was infectious. Prominent venue owner Peter Shapiro even emerged, further igniting the crowd’s energy. Daniel and his band returned to the stage amidst cheers, embarking on a final descent that left a lasting impression. As fans exited the Brooklyn Bowl, they were left buzzing with excitement, their anticipation for Daniel Donato’s promising career is undeniable. He is undoubtedly on the cusp of becoming a prominent figure in the Rock Community, with a dedicated fan base to support him.

    For those in Buffalo eager to catch a glimpse of the Cosmic Country phenomenon, a performance is scheduled for Tuesday, October 24. Furthermore, fans can look forward to his upcoming album, Reflector, set to release on November 10.

  • Watch The Rolling Stones Promote Album at Surprise Racket Show

    The Rolling Stones celebrated their first album release of original music in 18 years, Hackney Diamonds, at a small surprise show at Racket in NYC on Oct. 19.

    The night started with a DJ set courtesy of Quest Love, and Samantha Urbani. Different VIP guests including Elvis Costello, Daniel Craig, Chris Rock, Jimmy Fallon, and more, were in attendance. With the death of drummer Charlie Watts in 2021, the Rolling Stones performed with the core trio of Mick Jagger and guitarists Keith Richards and Ron Wood, with other musicians supplementing.

    This isn’t the first time the Stones have performed an album release show in the city. The band once rolled down Fifth Avenue on a flatbed truck and on another occasion rode on a caboose into Grand Central Terminal. Their newest record Hackney Diamonds has received rave reviews, with Variety describing it as their best work since 1981’s Tattoo You, and Telegraph seeing it as “the best rock’n’ roll album of the past four decades at least.”

    They opened with “Shattered,” from 1978’s Some Girls, before playing their new songs “Angry,” “Whole Wide World,” and “Bite My Head Off.” The set also featured “Tumbling Dice” and “Jumping Jack Flash” before an encore for which the Stones were joined by Lady Gaga. 

    Dressed in a sequined maroon pantsuit, Gaga made an appearance to recreate her duet with Jagger on the new song “Sweet Sounds of Heaven” off Hackney Diamonds. The band’s Racket gig marked one of their smallest venue locations to date, particularly in the area, and was the perfect intimate setting to celebrate their newest album.

  • Shower Curtain Releases Cat-Inspired Single And New Music Video

    Brazilian NYC-based band Shower Curtain dropped their first single in two years, titled “Edgar.” The group released an official music video shot in New York City, following lead vocalist Victoria Winter’s cat Edgar’s point of view.

    Edgar by Shower Curtain

    The track approaches a heavy topic, as Edgar faces many medical issues. However, the music video seeks to create a lighter tone by playing with perspective: the video shifts from following the cat’s point of view at floor level to overhead shots of people searching for him.

    “Edgar” is a dreamy, melancholic rock track that shows strong, deliberate use of intense guitar riffs, as well as moments where the song pulls back to showcase clear emotion.

    Shower Curtain recently evolved from being Victoria Winter’s solo project to adding musicians Jill Olesen on bass, Ethan Williams on guitar, and Sean Terrell on drums.

    It feels very liberating to share this song with the world. Not only is it marking a new phase for the project but I think an overall process of maturing as a creative, letting go of the old aesthetic and sound that defined Shower Curtain when I lived in Brazil. The new sound is of course a reflection of the project evolving from a solo project into a band, and the band’s contribution to this song is evident in the instrumentation.

    Victoria Winter

    Shower Curtain is currently focusing on their first album, set to release sometime in 2024. In addition, they will play a celebratory show at Brooklyn venue Trans Pecos on November 9 to mark their resurgence as a group. Shower Curtain is Victoria Winter (vocals), Jill Olesen (bass), Ethan Williams (guitar), and Sean Terrell (drums).
