Festival Review and Photos: Coachella – FridayAll Photos by Philip Cosores Kendrick Lamar Yuck Yuck’s brand of sludgy rock may not have been the ideal listening in the 100+ degree heat, as the crowd may not have been willing to invest the energy into their peppy sound and the band themselves seemed a little slovenly onstage (it didn’t help that Daniel [...] |

Live Review and Photos: Bowerbirds, April 7, 2012, Troubadour – West Hollywood, CAPhotos by Philip Cosores It’s not exactly the most revealing of realisations, but watching Bowerbirds play on Saturday night really emphasized to me how much having great musical chemistry between two people can enhance their personal connection, and vice versa.

Live Review and Photos: Poliça, March 20, 2012, The Drunken Unicorn – Atlanta, GAIt’d be fair to say that I was more curious than excited as I prepared to catch my first Poliça show.

Live Review and Photos: The Magnetic Fields, March 23, 2012, The Orpheum Theatre – Los Angeles, CAThis being my first time seeing The Magnetic Fields playing live, I had no idea what to expect.
