Mark Your Calenders

Grab yourself a pen and a empty calender. You may want to note a lot of these musical events happening only in Cincinnati this summer.
Can’t make it to Bonnaroo this summer? That’s okay. There’s plenty of acts playing the festival this year, that are also stopping in and around Cincinnati this summer. Let’s take a [...]

It’s going to be a hot, beautiful weekend and the only place to be is outside. Lots of great things going on; Kings Island opens for the year on Saturday and I’m sure the place will be packed with people of all ages, from the coaster enthusiasts waiting hours to check out Diamondback and Firehawk, [...]

Pink Floyd has long been one of my absolute favorite bands of all time, going all the way back to the first time I heard them around eleven or twelve years old, and still today, I can listen to their entire catalogue in full and no way could I ever tire of them. Undoubetedly, they are the [...]

I’ve been to a lot of concerts over the years, but rarely do I wake up the next day with a constant ringing in my ears. Most of the shows I attend are general admission, so when I get the chance to stand at the front of the stage, it’s a risk I take, although [...]

Just wanted to send a shout-out and congrats to our friends over at WOXY. They’re gearing up this week for the South by Southwest Music Festival in their new hometown of Austin, Texas. In addition to their first official showcase (which features bands like Bear in Heaven, Crystal Antlers and Cymbals Eat Guitars), they’ve also [...]

For as long as I can remember, Cincinnati has been a festival kind of town. Whether we’re celebrating our German heritage at Oktoberfest, or sampling the tastiest of foods at the Taste of Cincinnati and Goetta Fest, the people here love to get out and experience all the best things the city has to offer. [...]

It would appear that Spring has finally sprung. The several feet of snow that covered my yard for the past month or two has almost completely melted away and the forecast for the month of March is looking to have an average of about fifty-something degrees. The good weather has arrived just in time for St. [...]

For the second night in a row, a local music release show at the Southgate House brought in a sold out crowd, again turning away fans at the door. Friday night, 500 Miles to Memphis drew nearly a thousand people to the whole house show, which featured over ten bands on all three of its stages. Last night, [...]

Nearly a thousand people came out to support the 500 Miles to Memphis CD release show last night at Newport’s Southgate House. The historical/haunted venue sold out just before 500 Miles took the stage around 11 pm, and some were even turned away. The bill featured a number of other bands, some of 500’s local [...]

Rarely is there a time when a handful of some of Cincinnati’s finest musician’s are hosting releases parties all on the same weekend.
First, there’s 500 Miles to Memphis. Led by a Cash/Ramone-like Ryan Malott, the country-punk outfit recently released the highly-anticipated/long-awaited We’ve Built Up to NOTHING, which sees the addition of a backing orchestra to [...]
