Hot off the release of their album New Glow, the Brooklyn-based duo Matt and Kim took the party vibe to a thousand hundo with a sold-out show at The Pageant in St. Louis on May 8th, 2015.
After almost 2 years away the Atlanta garage punk foursome known as The Black Lips returned to The Firebird in St. Louis, Missouri on April 29th, 2014 with Nashville’s own Natural Child to show the Show Me State how it’s done.
Few local bands have left their mark on indie music in St. Louis like The Blind Eyes. The quintessential indie pop group of the Gateway City have played many memorable shows, not the least of which being their final show at Off Broadway on March 15th, 2014.

Missouri born, Chicago-based songwriter Angel Olsen showed herself to be a fine musician to tour with Water Liars when she performed at Off Broadway in Saint Louis, Missouri on February 7th, 2013. Typically, solo musicians aren’t this much fun to shoot.

Pondering this as I waited in line at the Hi-Tone in Memphis, it crossed my mind that you could be a rather sincere fan of Ty Segall and still bare witness to a performance of his that consisted of maybe a few songs that you actually knew, and that it wouldn’t exactly be a bad thing. Such is the power of Ty Segall.
Over three years after their infamous no-show at Off Broadway, the recently reunited King Khan & BBQ Show made their long overdue appearance in Saint Louis on November 30th, 2012. It was a rowdy spectacle of punk doo wop and people who maybe didn’t realize they were being made fun of by the duo when they were stage diving.
