First, off: Happy MLK everyone! So, yes Nick Jonas. Before I get into why he deserves your time, let me show you which friend of John Mayer I’m talking about. (This is from Smith’s Olde Bar last December 23rd) David Ryan Harris Ridiculous guitar playing with sweet melodies capable of melting your heart. That’s him. [...]
1. Rihanna Rated R B Rihanna has definitely decided to go with a more edgy approach to this one. It’s her first Parental Advisory album and the pics are racy with the back of the CD showing her scantily clad with a cigarette in her hand. Hey, I’m just happy she’s not giving us more [...]
1. OneRepublic Waking Up A OneRepublic’s sophomore album dropped last Tuesday (November 17th), and I’m a fan. From beginning to end this album is entertaining. They definitely have a distinct sound, but the songs are different enough to keep me interested. The only way I can describe the music is to say it’s like Coldplay [...]
Yeah, Hanson still attracts quite the crowd. They don’t have nearly the amount of boy-crazed, screaming girls anymore, but what they lack in quantity, they make up in quality. The Tabernacle was pretty full of fans who knew every song they played from all 7 of their previously released studio albums. First, a quick word [...]
Lenny Kravitz is playing the Tabernacle this Wednesday (Nov 4) after being pushed back a week. This is going to be a great show! I’ve never personally seen Kravitz live, but have seen plenty of live performances through our wonderful technologies like t.v. and the internet. My father saw him with P!nk as the opener [...]
[ ] Help: Yes, I said Hanson. I love them!! And they are coming to Atlanta this Wednesday at the Tabernacle. It’s the Use Your Sole Tour with Hellogoodbye, and they are raising money to fight poverty and HIV/AIDS in Africa. They actually walk a mile barefoot before each concert and donate a dollar for [...]
After John Mayer tweeted about leaving his blues roots behind for his new album and trying to change up the pop game instead, I was a little worried. A bluesy John Mayer makes a happy Shaniah. I just like his heavier, slower, guitar-filled music much more than the pop hits. I’m of the opinion that [...]
OAR in Atlanta, 8.21.9 {{i never knew life could taste so good}} Of A Revolution, more popularly known as OAR, has been around for a while, even though their radio airplay might suggest that they’re new to the scene. Marc Roberge & the boys of OAR grew up in Rockville, MD, going to high school [...]
As a girl who grew up in the ’80s and who admittedly watched “Thirteen going on Thirty” more than a few times, I was stoked to see Pat Benatar live. I realize she was not the headliner, but I have to preface the following blog with this information to prevent anyone from believing my review [...]
Wow, it’s Monday already?! Time is flying… Well with another week comes another to-do list, and that makes it all worth it! This week is going to be a pretty amazing one, so I hope you’re well rested. I’m going to start this thing off with a mini tribute to Counting Crows and follow it [...]
