After the insane weekend we had covering Buku Music + Arts Project this past March, we knew we could expect nothing but the best from the event crew (Winter Circle Productions, Huka Entertainment, and MCP Presents) in coming up with another jaw dropping and eclectic lineup for 2015, and they more than delivered. Last year […]

The beauty that is known as Art Outside was held last month from October 24-27th just outside of my unofficial, but beloved home of Austin, Texas. With 2014 commemorating the homegrown festivals’ 10th year anniversary, I was more than excited to see just how my favorite gathering planned to celebrate. Although this year’s AO would […]

As the Fall installment of our favorite Colorado festival of the year, Sonic Blossom was the perfect fix for all of us still reminiscing about Sonic Bloom. Featuring one of our favorite bass producers, Thriftworks, it was awesome to see him with a fully custom live visual set up and accompanied by hip hop artist […]

The only thing that makes us feel better about the end of summer festival season is looking forward to the abundance of homegrown festivals during the fall. One of which we’ve got a big ol’ festie crush on: Bear Creek Music Festival! Taking place in its beautiful home of Spirit of Suwannee Music Park just north of […]

Birthed from the creative mind of producer Doug Appling, Emancipator is an ambient trip that guides the listener through a wave of sound and emotion, creating an ethereal and surreal sense of nostalgia. Emancipator’s meticulous soundscapes and euphoric effects are merely amplified when the live band is in tow, aptly named Emancipator Ensemble. Featuring the […]

Although this will be my first time at the Chill, I’m no stranger to the jam or music festival scene. The past four Septembers I’ve watched idly by as friends carted off in droves to this upstate NY gathering, while I was left in the dust, scrambling to begin yet another school year. Being a college student […]

The love I’ve got for Lynx is mad real. There’s something about the singer-songwriter that I can’t pinpoint, simply because it’s all so good. This soft spoken yet powerful multi-instrumentalist and beat-boxing badass is only 29 years old, and has already performed around the world, as well as hitting a slew of large-scale festivals recently […]

Sunrise Ranch served as a perfect host for this year’s ARISE Music Festival, where thousands of music lovers from Colorado and beyond gathered to spend three days under the stars, surrounded by all-encompassing views of the Front Range. Eccentric performances by gypsy Afro-beat trio Beats Antique as well as an enigmatic party set by none other […]

Located just north of Live Oak, Florida lies a venue unlike any other: Spirit of Suwannee Music Park. Covered in large Spanish moss-drenched oak trees and featuring stunning details such as an natural amphitheater, we’ve yet to see the 800 acre venue for ourselves, but have already heard of its infectious charm. Rapidly approaching on CYM’s calendar […]
