We have narrowed it down to two stand-out brunch spots: Paraiso Taqueria and Unconventional Diner. </p><p><a href="https://paraisotaqueria.com/" target="_blank"></a></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEgyogdK3_jvGDgjyf9yIomhLYsJ_yT1_KA7LjmEJ6OkOaf2ZR7IXtWPYB_t9YU4Loc3XrYL0KDSwMvoVyy4zMWgE4bztgMD4YOoxT9K_j8h9VRSCm274jfydlr-FlaVjgz_XRBhETPOLF8CwrL6tujdtDhn5jfN9XoY31R_zxLcGRTGluWVAReMA-DeGw" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="" data-original-height="1414" data-original-width="2121" height="213" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEgyogdK3_jvGDgjyf9yIomhLYsJ_yT1_KA7LjmEJ6OkOaf2ZR7IXtWPYB_t9YU4Loc3XrYL0KDSwMvoVyy4zMWgE4bztgMD4YOoxT9K_j8h9VRSCm274jfydlr-FlaVjgz_XRBhETPOLF8CwrL6tujdtDhn5jfN9XoY31R_zxLcGRTGluWVAReMA-DeGw" width="320" /></a></div><a href="https://paraisotaqueria.com/" target="_blank">Paraiso Taqueria</a> is located at 1101 Pennsylvania Ave and it's self-described as, "A creative cuisine inspired by streets & home kitchens of Mexico." They have a preset brunch menu that offers all of the favorites ranging from Huevos Rancheros to Tres Leches French Toast. For those on a budget or with small appetites, the $5 breakfast tacos are the way to go. <p></p><p>Of course, no brunch is complete without bottomless mimosas! Paraiso does not disappoint with a variety of juice options including passion fruit and guava. </p><p>Our next must-stop brunch spot is <a href="https://www.unconventionaldiner.com/" target="_blank">Unconventional Diner</a>. The name alone makes you curious about the space. Winning the Bib Gourmand Michelin Award in 2021 and appearing on several "best brunch" lists, this diner proves to be anything but conventional, as the name suggests. Located at 1207 9th Street, NW, Unconventional Diners offers an impressively eclectic menu. Personally, I can't wait to try the Lebanese Fried Rice, while Chris is highly anticipating the Caribbean Shrimp and Grits. Also worth boasting about is their comfort food with a southern flair such as Chicken and Waffles. The best thing about the diner's brunch is that they have it daily until 4; why limit yourself to brunching on the weekend? </p><p>We hope to see you at one of these spots this weekend! Stay tuned; following our brunch experiences, we will share all of the drool-worthy details.

It's safe to say that we believe variety is the spice of life - and that goes for music. That's one reason that Forecastle is so attractive to people with eclectic musical palates. There's no need to choose just one genre at such a well-rounded event. This year, lyrical rhymes will be available from Anderson Paak, melodic dance beats courtesy of Big Wild, and thoughtful Americana sounds will flow through the Waterfront Park thanks to the Avett Brothers. With such variety, everyone in your fest fam will undoubtedly be pleased.</span></p><p style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; background-position: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-size: initial; color: #0e101a; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;"><br /></p><p style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; background-position: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-size: initial; color: #0e101a; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;"><strong style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; background-position: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-size: initial; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;">Reason #2 - The Extras</strong></p><p style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; background-position: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-size: initial; color: #0e101a; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;"><br /></p><p style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; background-position: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-size: initial; color: #0e101a; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;"><span data-preserver-spaces="true" style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; background-position: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-size: initial; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;">All music fests offer the basics - food, music, and beverages.

Party Cove is almost like walking into a completely different festival within a festival. If dancing is your game, Party Cove is the place to be. This is one spot where it's okay to rock the boat, as local DJs and performers from the lineup play the night away from a boat stage under the neon glow of illuminated trees.</span></p><p style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; background-position: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-size: initial; color: #0e101a; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;"><br /></p><p style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; background-position: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-size: initial; color: #0e101a; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;"><strong style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; background-position: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-size: initial; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;">Reason #3 - Location, Location, Location</strong></p><p style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; background-position: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-size: initial; color: #0e101a; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;"><br /></p><p style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; background-position: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-size: initial; color: #0e101a; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;"><span data-preserver-spaces="true" style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; background-position: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-size: initial; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;">Forecastle wins on the location front in two separate ways. The 85-acre Waterfront Park along the Ohio River creates a peaceful backdrop for enjoying music throughout the day. The massive Big Four Bridge is illuminated at night, causing a reflective glow over the river. </span></p><p style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; background-position: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-size: initial; color: #0e101a; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;"><br /></p><p style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; background-position: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-size: initial; color: #0e101a; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;"><span data-preserver-spaces="true" style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; background-position: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-size: initial; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;">Forecastle has much more heart than the average music festival, leaving its guests feeling like they are part of an experience and not simply attending an event. Considering the diverse lineup, unique extras, and beautiful location, Forecastle must be on every music-lovers list this year. Mark your calendar for July 12-14 to see what Forecastle is all about.</span></p><p style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; background-position: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-size: initial; color: #0e101a; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;"><span data-preserver-spaces="true" style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; background-position: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-size: initial; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;"><br /></span></p><p style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; background-position: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-size: initial; color: #0e101a; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; text-align: center;"><span data-preserver-spaces="true" style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; background-position: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-size: initial; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;"><span id="docs-internal-guid-792f0579-7fff-3c8f-39e9-7ed594081a67"><span style="color: black; font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"><span style="border: none; display: inline-block; height: 320px; overflow: hidden; width: 241px;"><img height="320" src="https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/xzeh3Ac5dMWGreonqlTSrZESTi9nmZt4RBGldvn6PgUZmkbK4CAZlBfW1SGAAc3RwIhYsJJsoWZR2QBz5k-ikJYiLEeiaq3SgMkAhIWFekIYXc0nip8aKk6GpO-ucbgIKso9tTrdbYbaNRpHm_ShNSE" style="margin-left: 0px; margin-top: 0px;" width="241" /></span></span></span></span></p>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2795121378275054408.post-53121753457802675992018-11-06T11:18:00.001-05:002018-11-06T11:18:29.817-05:00Langhorne Slim and The Lost at Last Band Play HRB<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<b><a href="http://www.hawriverballroom.com/event/1751952-langhorne-slim-lost-last-saxapahaw/" target="_blank">Langhorne Slim returns to Haw River Ballroom</a></b> this Thursday, November 8. For those of us lucky enough to have experienced his edgy shows before, it's easy to recall Langhorne's tendency to enter the crowd and sing to onlookers while hoisted upon someone's shoulders. In a world filled with fake everything, Langhorne is a reminder that real still exists - through his passion, his lyrics, and the soul he shares with his crowd each and every show. </div>

As the phenomena of instant connection and the need for constant self-improvement further implant their tendrils into our culture, the ability to truly connect with each other and ourselves has begun to fade. As we all reach for our smartphones to gaze upon the manufactured perfection of the lives of those we admire, we lose sight of what makes our own lives important. <br /><br /><b><a href="http://langhorneslim.com/" target="_blank">Nashville’s Langhorne Slim</a></b> interlaces this theme throughout his new album.“Everyone’s searchin’ for something better around every corner, but it’s already right here,” Langhorne says.“We’re all born whole – through livin’ we fall apart…” <br /><br />The songs on Langhorne Slim’s newest album, <i>Lost At Last Vol. 1</i>, released November 10, 2017, challenge the idea of social rigidity: the attitude that there’s a “correct” way for us to live and a side we should be on. He urges the world to see through the idea that by following that path and focusing only on fitting the mold, one will have lived a good life. He re-interprets the sound of the free-spirited yet vulnerable everyman heard on 2015’s The Spirit Moves and brings forth anew the call for us to abandon “the fold” and re-connect with ourselves and each other. <br /><br />Langhorne Slim is no stranger to the world of popular culture and commercial success. Lost At Last Vol. 1 is his sixth full-length album; throughout his career he has been defined by reflective songwriting and passionate delivery. Slim’s last album cycle alone garnered him his third appearance on Conan O’Brien’s late-night show, as well as a feature on CBS Saturday Morning, and the highest charting debut of his career. O’Brien, a personal fan of Slim stated, “After one listen, I became an instant, almost obsessive fan.” Slim has consistently toured on his own, and has appeared on extensive worldwide runs throughout his career with artists such as The Lumineers, The Avett Brothers, Grace Potter & The Nocturnals, Gregory Alan Isakov, Josh Ritter, The Devil Makes Three, Sara Watkins, and more. He’s also appeared on many festival stages, such as Bonnaroo, Newport Folk Festival, Outside Lands, Lollapalooza, and the Philadelphia Folk Festival. <br /><br /><i>Lost At Last Vol. 1 </i>is a record that Langhorne wanted to do differently from the start. “Almost immediately after recording our last record, The Spirit Moves,” Slim says, “I felt a deep desire to make another album. One that would take a step sideways in order to take a step forward; one that would be very personal and raw…in the making of this record, I made a deal with myself to trust my own voice and vision more than I ever have before, and to go willingly wherever it led.” <br /><br />The title alone reflects his need to pen a great wealth of songs, as if the thoughts and inspiration took on a life of their own and just needed to come out. Recorded over the span of around six months in New Orleans, Los Angeles, and Catskill, NY, and clocking in at about 34 minutes, it’s a short but intense listening experience. Several songs are under two or three minutes long, but they pack vivid imagery into concise packages in a way that shows a significant diversion from the songwriting on his previous records. Slim keeps his record-making in the family with this release; longtime band member Malachi DeLorenzo co-produced the record along with Kenny Siegal, and DeLorenzo also mixed several tracks in addition to playing drums on the record. <br /><br />Slim reflects truths that we may or may not want to admit; in “Life is Confusing”, he muses that “life is confusing, and people are insane”. He stands resolute in the face of trial: “…you could break my heart, but you’ll never break me,” he sings on “Never Break”. He calls upon the listener during this time fraught with challenges to unplug from the trajectory our culture has deemed is “right” and find strength in our own vulnerability, in our own instincts. “We look to our phones, drugs, sex whatever to find ourselves when it’s already right here,” Slim says. These songs join in the rallying call for the wild ones in us all. <div>

been acknowledged by many as country music’s north star, guiding us down a path
of confession and conflict to a place of reflection and redemption. He has received
tremendous praise from The New York Times, Rolling Stone, The Wall Street
Journal and other publications, many of which have hailed his albums as
masterpieces. His influential album, "That Lonesome Song<i>"</i>, was
certified platinum for 1 million in sales, and his innovative double album,
"The Guitar Song<i>"</i>, which debuted at No. 1 on the country album
charts, received a gold certification. In 2012, he released a Grammy-nominated

Stepping onto the Atlanta Motor Speedway for the first night of the <b><a href="http://www.imaginefestival.com/" target="_blank">Imagine Music Festival</a></b>, I couldn't help but pause and appreciate the evolution of this magical event. Three years ago, my two festie-besties and I entered our first Imagine at Atlanta's Historic Fourth Ward Park. At that time, the event was in its second year and held three stages and minimal space, however the effort put into the fest was huge. The three of us didn't quite leave IMF the same; we bonded as friends, we created unforgettable memories, and we learned that we needed more moments like this in our lives. IMF has since grown to a six-stage wonderland at the speedway. Spanning 887 acres, the festival now allows for the fun of camping, endless sensory adventures, and most importantly meaningful memories.<br />
<br />
Day 1 presented a great beginning to the weekend. We got the day started with <b><a href="https://www.facebook.com/yhetimusic/" target="_blank">Yheti</a></b> at the Disco Inferno Stage. With his creative flow and unique melodies, he brought the perfect amount of weird to allow for a smooth transition from the real-world into festival mode. Afterward the main stage, Oceania, brought on one heavy-hitter after another. For our crew, it started with <b><a href="http://datsik.com/" target="_blank">Datsik</a></b>, who came out on stage with the bass guns blazing. He started on a high level and never came back down, keeping the crowd amped and ready to go all night. Finishing out the stellar lineup was <b><a href="https://www.tiesto.com/" target="_blank">Tiesto</a></b>. Filled with power and energy, this EDM legend kept the crowd moving for his entire 90 minute set, playing favorites both old and new.<br />
<br />

The night started with one of our most anticipated sets: <b><a href="http://www.blacktigersexmachine.com/" target="_blank">Black Tiger Sex Machine</a></b>. After recently experiencing them at Electric Forest, I could not wait for them to take me to church once again. Just as I had imagined, they did not disappoint. The energy that comes from a BTSM show is hard to match. All three members engage with the crowd, creating a connection that pulls everyone together. Add that to the visuals that match every beat and the perfect set is created. Appropriately following that powerful set on the Oceania Stage was <b><a href="http://zomboyofficial.com/" target="_blank">Zomboy</a></b> with his infectious beats, continuing what BTSM started. Then came <b><a href="https://www.facebook.com/fluxpavilion/" target="_blank">Flux Pavilion</a></b>. I have to be honest, I saw Flux once before and found his set to be mediocre. I was beyond surprised and pleased that he proved me wrong at Imagine. Using heavy bass, melody and rhythm, Flux had the crowd eating out of the palm of his hands. He mixed his own popular song "Bass Cannon" into an intricate web of bass and beats, recreating my personal favorite tune into a whole new sound. Of course once he played "I Can't Stop," everyone lost their minds, screaming the words that caused an echo across the Atlanta Motor Speedway.<br />
<br />

As if all of that wasn't enough excitement for one night, we had to make a nearly impossible choice: Pretty Lights vs. Deadmau5. How does one choose between two legends? We decided to go with <b><a href="http://prettylightsmusic.com/" target="_blank">Pretty Lights </a></b>because we were curious and intrigued with the fact that he was playing a live set. This was a new experience for me and well-worthy of the hype. Seeing the already mystical music by Pretty Lights played live on stage with actual instruments was a music nerd's dream come true. As we all know, Pretty Lights is a master at putting his audience into a visual trance and this set was no exception.<br />
<br />
<br />
The last day is always a little sad because the thought of returning to reality is truly depressing. However, with the enchanting lineup on Sunday, it was impossible to feel anything except pure joy. I'm personally not always into the "feelsy" electronic music, but the Sunday lineup got me trapped in a zone of the feels and I loved every second of it.<br />
<br />
Who better to start a heartwarming day than <b><a href="http://illenium.com/" target="_blank">Illenium</a></b>? This eclectic producer is a master at giving purpose to his music while still creating a hype show; generating a perfectly balanced experience that is sure to captivate the entire audience. Creating a flawless transition was <b><a href="http://www.sevenlions.com/" target="_blank">Seven Lions</a></b> hitting the stage right after Illenium. With his visuals being almost as beautiful as his flowing hair, I couldn't help but feel I was existing in the world he created on screen. Scenes of nature meshed with angelic melodies took the audience to a whole new level of peaceful bliss that felt like entering a dream. As if the night could get any more whimsical, the final set on the main stage was <b><a href="http://www.aboveandbeyond.nu/" target="_blank">Above & Beyond</a></b>. This was my first time seeing these trance gods and all expectations were exceeded. They worked their magic to make the crowd feel as one, moving and singing along to every calming beat. Of course, this was the main stage finale, so Imagine had to pull out all of the stops with a mesmerizing firework display. The festival couldn't have ended in a more beautiful way with soothing melodies, a fantastic light show, and my two best friends.<br />

After the finale on the main stage, <b><a href="http://www.claudevonstroke.com/" target="_blank">Claude VonStroke</a></b> was the sole survivor keeping the crowd moving at the Disco Inferno. Once we finished grooving to his set, we all headed toward the exit of the speedway.<br />
<br />
As we walked up the steps, we turned to span the festival, taking in the vibrantly flashing lights, the creatively dressed festies, and recalled entering this same festival three short years ago. The setting has changed, the space has grown, but that same intimate and genuine feeling first created by Imagine in the beginning, holds strong three years later. That's what a notable festival is all about: the best of friends creating new memories with an eloquent soundtrack constantly spinning in the background. Thanks for giving us a place to expand our memories, minds, and friendships, Imagine. We'll see you next year for your fifth birthday!

<b><a href="http://www.imaginefestival.com/schedule/" target="_blank">Imagine Music Festival 2017</a></b> is right around the corner, folks! Soon enough, the complete schedule will be released and it will be time to carefully pick and choose which unforgettable acts to see. While this can be a daunting task, have no fear, we're here to help! In coming weeks, we'll be sharing our top picks for each stage. There are some heavy-hitters playing the Oceania stage like Deadmau5, Tiesto, and Flux Pavilion, but our first choice for this stage is Black Tiger Sex Machine.<br />
<br />
Who's ready to go to church? First up we have sci-fi-inspired bass hitters, <a href="http://www.blacktigersexmachine.com/" target="_blank"><b>Black Tiger Sex Machine</b></a>. With a name like that, how can you even think about missing their act? BTSM are known for their electrifying shows and their ability to bend, manipulate, and mesh every genre of electronic music into one performance. Their sound implements everything from dubstep and electro to drum and bass. At a BTSM set, the audience is immersed in hard-hitting bass and classically-influenced instrumentation with darker electro styles. BTSM is also known for creating partially live sets, which is refreshing in a world of press-play artists. Be sure to head to BTSM Church on Saturday and get lost in the hard and heavy sounds of this dynamic trio. To see what a BTSM show is all about, check out their tour recap below. <b><a href="http://www.imaginefestival.com/" target="_blank">Buy your tickets now for Imagine</a></b>, they're worth every penny and going fast!<br />

Blackbear, Lil Dicky, Cheat Codes and more will come together on October 14th in Charlotte for the first ever <b><a href="http://www.breakawayfestival.com/" target="_blank">Breakaway Festival</a></b>. The event will appropriately be held at the <b><a href="https://avidxchangemusicfactory.com/" target="_blank">NC Music Factory</a></b>.<br />

Headlining the event is German producer <b><a href="https://www.zedd.net/echo" target="_blank">Zedd</a></b> who has played notable music festivals such as Ultra, EDC and Moonrise. Known for top hits like "Clarity" and "I Want You to Know," Zedd brings his electro-house hits to life with pulsating beats and thoughtful production. He is currently traveling for his Echo tour. <br />
<br />
While Breakaway also takes place in Grand Rapids, MI and Columbus, OH, this is the first time Prime Social Group have chosen Charlotte, largely due to its blossoming music scene. Local favorites from Charlotte, Raleigh, and surrounding areas will also be featured in the silent disco presented by <b><a href="https://www.facebook.com/SOMAEvents/?hc_ref=ARRv98dK7hvspoFbTYp-a6h40yjXQwUegujxK_97ZH6Y19owrPhKPXaKWqtHklj7_io" target="_blank">SOMA Entertainment</a></b>.

This Saturday, June 17, <b><a href="http://catscradle.com/" target="_blank">Cat's Cradle</a></b> has put together a lineup that makes all other lineups jealous. <br />
<br />
<b><a href="http://www.thegcband.com/#store" target="_blank">The Greeting Committee</a> </b>are an indie pop group based out of Kansas City, Missouri. Formed in 2014 by high school friends Addison Sartino (vocals), Brandon Yangmi (guitar), Pierce Turcotte (bass), and Austin Fraser (drums), the quartet attracted the attention of local radio personality Lazlo Geiger who agreed to manage them. Following the release of their debut EP, It's Not All That Bad, things began to move quickly for the young group and a deal was soon struck with Los Angeles-based label Harvest Records who re-released the EP in October 2015.<br />
<br />
<br />
<b><a href="https://www.misterwives.com/" target="_blank">MisterWives</a></b> are an indie pop band based in New York City. Formed in 2012 around the core trio of singer/keyboardist Mandy Lee, bassist William Hehir, and drummer Etienne Bowler, they have an unusual sound that combines elements of synth pop, folk, and indie rock, falling somewhere between the quirky dance-pop of No Doubt and the pastoral folk-rock of Of Monsters and Men.<br />
<br />
After adding guitarist Marc Campbell and multi-instrumentalist Dr. Blum, the group began recording its debut EP, <i>Reflections</i>, which was released on New York indie Photo Finish Records in early 2014. With just one EP and some demos to their name, MisterWives have garnered much buzz among major music publications like Interview, Paste, and MTV Buzzworthy.<br />
<br />
Their debut LP <i>Our Own House</i> was released in February 2015. Head out to the <b><a href="http://catscradle.com/" target="_blank">Cat's Cradle this Saturday</a></b> to hear their newest album, <i>Connect the Dots</i>. Be aware, this show is sold out, so if you didn't snag some tix, it's time to be best friends with someone that did.<br />

North Carolina´s own <a href="http://www.noisyghostpr.com/junior-astronomers">Junior Astronomers</a> will be making a return to the Triangle next week just before the release of their sophomore album, <i>Body Language, </i>on Friday, June 9. As a follow up to their first album, <i>Dead Nostalgia</i>, band members Terrance Richard, Philip Wheeler, Colin Watts, and Elias Pittman describe their new album as one that portrays the nuances of coming of age, the complexities of relationships, and finding a new normal in a constantly changing world.<br />
<br />
As the Charlotte based rock band embarks on a tour that features stops in Brooklyn, Washington D.C. and Philadelphia, the <a href="http://catscradle.com/event/junior-astronomers/">Cat's Cradle Back Room</a> will be the first of several shows in North Carolina over the next week. Having shared the stage with the likes of Manchester Orchestra and Modest Mouse in recent years, they're guaranteed to provide a performance that will induce moving. <br />
<br />
For a preview of their album, check out the recently released single off their new album, "Pyramid Party." The lineup for the June 6 show also includes other talented acts, <a href="http://coldfronts.us/">Cold Fronts</a>, <a href="https://youthleagueband.bandcamp.com/">Youth League</a>, and <a href="http://www.cuzcoband.com/">Cuzco</a> and will begin at 8pm.<br />
<br />
Tickets are $8 in advance and can be purchased <a href="https://www.etix.com/ticket/p/8238168/junior-astronomerswith-cold-frontsyouth-leagueand-cuzco-carrboro-cats-cradle-back-room?cobrand=Cats%20Cradle%202012&partner_id=240#_ga=2.10170039.346374861.1496403774-1376655163.1496235818">here</a>. <span style="font-size: x-small;"> </span><br />

In the week leading up to playing at Bonnaroo Music Festival and embarking on a European tour later this summer, the <b><a href="http://catscradle.com/event/the-orwells/">Cat's Cradle</a> </b>welcomes <a href="http://www.theorwells.com/"><b>The Orwells</b></a> on Tuesday, June 6. <br />
<br />
Hailing from Elmhurst, Illinois, these five rockers have been generating a lot of excitement with the release of their third studio album, <i>Terrible Human Beings</i>. The band had not released an album since 2014 after giving an unforgettable performance as guests on The Late Show with David Letterman. <br />
<br />
As one might expect, the band has evolved in their sound, but recognizes it is their wild and theatrical performances that have captivated their audiences over the years. The band is making a point to focus on how they want to be percieved as artists moving forward, as band member Matt O'Keefe ackowledged in a recent<b> <a href="http://www.chicagotribune.com/entertainment/music/kot/ct-ott-0310-orwells-20170306-column.html">Chicago Tribune</a></b> article,"we don't always want it to be about what we are doing physically on stage, but more about the lyrics or the guitar part." This is clearly evident in the album's final song, "Double Feature." When asked about the lengthy and clever ending to the album, Henry Brinner explained the intentions of the last song to <a href="http://www.billboard.com/articles/columns/rock/7709316/orwells-billboard-terrible-human-beings-interview"><b>Billboard</b></a>, "I think that the last song has to be epic." Joined by brother Grant Brinner, Dominic Corso, and Mario Cuomo, the Cat's Cradle is certain to be filled with rock and roll energy next Tuesday. Joining the band will be another Chicago-based rock band, <a href="http://www.yourwalters.com/"><b>The Walters</b></a>.<br />
<br />
Tickets for the show are available through the <a href="https://www.etix.com/ticket/p/6053481/the-orwellswith-the-walters-carrboro-cats-cradle?cobrand=Cats%20Cradle%202012&partner_id=240#_ga=2.227363032.450289926.1496320643-1280113435.1496320607"><b>Cat´s Cradle</b></a> event page and the show will begin at 8pm. Check out a preview of The Orwells' live performance of another track of their new album, "Black Francis."<br />

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 107%;">B.J. Barham was a long way from home when the tragedy
happened. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 107%;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 107%;">On November 13, 2015, the singer-songwriter—raised in
a small North Carolina town called Reidsville—was in the middle of his fourth
European tour with American Aquarium, the rising alt-country act he’d led for
nearly a decade. They were in Belgium, less than two hours from Paris, when bad
news began to arrive: a series of terrorist attacks, including one in a rock
club, had left more than 100 dead. Family members, friends, and the fans
American Aquarium had amassed from so many years on the road immediately
reached out, making sure the band had been far away.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 107%;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 107%;">“The onslaught of text messages, voicemails and
everything that came in the next day sparked something in me,” Barham
remembers. “In the next two days, the entire record was written.” <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 107%;">The record he’s talking about is Rockingham, Barham’s
remarkable and intensely personal solo debut. Not long after the wave of well
wishes had passed, Barham found himself piecing together composites of people
he’d known since childhood, of those folks and places who had impacted his life
in fundamental ways. He sang into his cell phone and scribbled in notebooks,
stealing away for quiet moments in order to put the melodies and characters
floating through his mind into song. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 107%;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 107%;">The shock of the moment and the distance from home
seemed to give Barham a crucial perspective on the moments and circumstances
that had helped shape him. Wolves, American Aquarium’s much-lauded 2015
breakthrough, had contained Barham’s most honest, vulnerable statements to
date. But these songs took the next step, allowing Barham to share stories
about those around him. In “O’Lover,” he portrays a hard-working farmer forced
to make some desperate decisions to support the ones he loves. In “Reidsville,”
named for the place he’d called his home until relocating to North Carolina’s
capital, he immortalized beautiful, sweet, doomed souls, stuck in love in the
sort of small towns that are disintegrating all across America. You needn’t
have been to Reidsville to recognize these elegantly written, expertly realized
protagonists. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

autobiographical—it’s fictional narrative in a very real place,” Barham says.
“These songs are human condition stories set in my hometown, Reidsville.”
Barham made these songs his new priority. Not long after he returned stateside,
he asked Bradley Cook, the musician and mentor who had coproduced Wolves, to
hear them. By afternoon’s end, they had hatched the plan to make Rockingham.
Two months later, on January 31, Barham returned from another American Aquarium
tour. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 107%;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 107%;">On Monday, he and the band he’d built to record
Rockingham—himself, Cook, Cook’s brother and multi-instrumentalist Phil Cook,
drummer Kyle Keegan, American Aquarium standbys Ryan Johnson and Whit
Wright—met for the first time. On Tuesday and Wednesday, they rehearsed. And on
Thursday and Friday, they cut all eight songs at Durham’s Overdub Lane. They
mixed the results over the weekend, between the sold-out hometown shows and
various festivities of American Aquarium’s annual pilgrimage, Roadtrip to
Raleigh. The whirlwind kept the songs simple and the recordings human,
reflecting a reality much bigger and less perfect than the vacuum of a
recording studio. These tunes, after all, didn’t need much tampering.
Rockingham puts its scenes and scenarios front and center, the beautiful grain
and twang of Barham’s voice bringing it all to life. He limns lifelong romance
and instantaneous tragedy during the paradoxically heartbreaking, heart-mending
“Unfortunate Kind” and details the disappointments and dreams of the
blue-collar laborer with “American Tobacco Company.” With its acoustic guitars
and pealing organs, ragged vocals and rugged characters, Rockingham is a
stunning, personal portrait of small-town America, easily identifiable and
familiar. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 107%;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 107%;">For the album’s sole autobiographical moment, Barham,
now happily married and sober, penned a letter of sound advice and Southern
attitude to his daughter-to-be, “Madeline.” It’s too personal to fall under a
roots-rock purview, too singular to be swallowed by a larger situation. Like
all of Rockingham, it’s not the sound of Barham stepping away from American
Aquarium but instead stepping confidently into the thoughts, stories, and
feelings of his own thirty years. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 107%;">“This is just an outlet for a songwriter. It’s me
being able to do something different. This is like people who love their jobs,
picking up hobbies,” says Barham, “This is an exercise for myself.”<o:p></o:p></span><br />

<span style="color: #262626;"><b>LR:</b> A couple of people have asked us if we see
this album as a departure because we added drums. I think that's the typical response
of adding electric instruments to a string band, but I think for the band it
feels like a part of our trajectory. We're song writers mostly and we like to
create music that supports the songs we write. With this album it felt like
the instrumentation that could support these songs was a little different.
Also, we were trying to keep ourselves entertained and it was fun for us
to try some new sounds in the studio and see how we could make them our own.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="color: #262626;">Usually what happens is we write things on our
own; sometimes they're finished songs, sometimes they're just ideas or just a
chorus. Then we get together and flush them out as a foursome.
We're all interested in writing a part of it, so even if one of us writes a
song there's usually input from others before we record.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="color: #262626;"><b>LR:</b> It was so fun! He is such a force of positive
energy. He is philosophically tied to not over-thinking things, which is
good for us and for any artist in the studio because that's so easy to do.
He wanted us to basically go into the studio and be a band; to just play like a
band and not worry too much about every little detail and kind of trust that
the spirit of the song would be what was most important. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="color: #262626;"><b>LR: </b>Diet, exercise, and routine. If you're a

<span style="color: #262626;"><b>LR: </b> I love imagining my life in every little town
that we go through. I love walking into a town with fresh eyes and trying
to put together a little story in my head of what it's like to be there, what the people do everyday and what types of food and music they
like. Obviously there are a lot of similarities and everyone is a product of an
internet age, but also there's still a lot of distinction between places and
that's something that could easily be overlooked if you weren't traveling to a
lot of little towns like we are. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="color: #262626;"><b>LR:</b> It all runs together in some way. I
think there are a lot of small moments that don't get recorded as some kind of
lightning strike in my memory, but there's this warmth that I feel from the
accumulation of all of these small moments. I think the stuff that's most
meaningful to me is the smaller and quieter moments: the little word of
appreciation from someone you admire or seeing a little kid who is starting
violin lessons light up when he watches you play, that's pretty special.

<span style="color: #262626;"><b>LR: </b> It is a world-class festival that
simultaneously feels like a state fair. It feels extremely local, but the
programming is excellent. It has a total home-grown feeling. This
festival was started by Doc Watson and I think that the spirit of the founding
continues and a lot of festivals can't say that. It's also great because
of the spirit of Doc Watson it's not too exclusive with what constitutes
traditional music, they always say it's traditional plus and that allows it to
be as encompassing as anyone wants it to be. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="background: white; font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 107%;">Moogfest revealed its lineup of musical
performers, led by<span class="apple-converted-space"> </span></span><strong>Flying Lotus</strong>,<span class="apple-converted-space"> </span><strong>Animal Collective</strong>,<span class="apple-converted-space"> </span><strong>Gotye</strong>,<span class="apple-converted-space"> </span><strong>Suzanne Ciani</strong>,<span class="apple-converted-space"> </span><strong>Derrick May</strong>,<span class="apple-converted-space"> </span><strong>808 State</strong>,<span class="apple-converted-space"> </span><strong>Simian Mobile Disco</strong>,<strong>Syrinx</strong>,<span class="apple-converted-space"> </span><strong>Jessy Lanza</strong>, and<span class="apple-converted-space"> </span><strong>Function</strong>. Building on the
experimental format of previous years, Moogfest continues to integrate Future
Sound (performances) and Future Thought (conference) programming, with many of
these artists also leading sessions during the daytime conference program.<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 107%;"><br />
<span style="background: white;"> </span><br />
<span style="background: white;">Moogfest’s trademark mix of intimate venues and masterful
collaborations creates an unforgettable experience festival-goers will not find
anywhere else. Experimental electronic and avant-garde dance music is
complemented by thematic programming like Black Quantum Futurism, Protest, and
Techno-Shamanism that span day-into-night. This year returns with adventurous
formats such as live film scores, an overnight live music sleep concert,
prelude to sleep listening parties, long-form durational performances, and presentations
by leading Instrument Designers.</span><br />
<span style="background: white;"> </span><br />
<span style="background: white;">Moogfest has also invited artists including<span class="apple-converted-space"> </span><strong>Gotye</strong><span class="apple-converted-space"><b> </b></span>and<span class="apple-converted-space"> </span><strong>Peanut Butter Wolf</strong><span class="apple-converted-space"> to

This 2017 lineup
reinforces Moogfest’s commitment to bold experimentation, with some of the most
important musicians and thinkers of our day helping to blur the lines between
audience and artist, conversation and collaboration, technology and creativity. </span></span><span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 12pt;">To purchase tickets, head over to the </span><b style="font-family: "times new roman", serif; font-size: 12pt;"><a href="https://www.eventbrite.com/e/moogfest-2017-tickets-24912748702?aff=pressrelease" target="_blank">Moogfest website</a></b><span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 12pt;">.

Moogfest prioritizes intimate spaces for collaboration and creativity.
Workshops are an essential part of the Moogfest program, but space is extremely
limited and these sessions fill up fast. This year, we have improved our
workshop registration process to make sure VIPs get their top choices, and
everyone else has a chance to attend a workshop as well.</span></div>

From a very early age <b><a href="http://www.circletalentagency.com/artist/cookie-monsta" target="_blank">Cookie Monsta</a></b> was always into music. From around 11 years old a PlayStation game called "Music 200" caught his eye and that's where it all began. He would play on this game making loops, playing on it for ages. Then around 17 he had as many music games as he could find, but he wanted more.<br />
<br />
Cookie Monsta never really knew about music production and came from a group of friends that were not into that sort of thing. When he applied at college he was frowned upon for doing this simply because people thought music was pointless to study. However, Cookie Monsta's point of view is, "If you're passionate about making music and you know you want to make music then knuckle down and stay on it. If people doubt you carry on, no matter how bad things get. Music isn't my hobby, it's my life." <br />
<br />
Seeing Cookie Monsta live for <b><a href="https://excision.ca/" target="_blank">Excision's Paradox Tour</a></b> at the <b><a href="http://www.ritzraleigh.com/" target="_blank">Ritz Raleigh</a></b> makes all of this evident. <b><a href="http://circus-records.co.uk/releases" target="_blank">The Circus Records artist</a></b> takes songs that start out slightly dirty and works his magic until they are filthy, causing that face-melt-feeling that every dubstep fan loves. He took the crowd through an intense journey of bass -hitting high, low and everywhere in between.<br />
<br />
Making his music even more powerful is the energy Cookie Monsta possesses on stage. During his performance, there was no doubt he was 100% in the moment - singing along and dancing to each beat, captivating the crowd with every new climb and drop. If you haven't caught him yet, add Cookie Monsta to your must-see list for 2017, you won't regret it. If you need further convincing, check out one of his latest tracks, 'Eliminate Target.'<br />

<span style="background: white; color: #1d2129; font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%;">Born in the Philippines
but based in Washington DC, Manila Killa is a versatile musician known for
creating down-tempo, relaxing, and melodic beats, sometimes referred to as
"tropical house." Manila Killa has a diverse knowledge of
music, ranging from the cello, to the drums, and the sweet strum of the guitar.
He graduated to spinning tunes as a DJ at the young age of 14 and started making
music-producing magic shortly thereafter. </span><br />
