It’s hard to believe that, as close as I hold music dear to my heart, I’ve never been to a show in my nineteen years and four months of life. So, of course you can imagine how special it was to go to my first—even more so given that I got in for free. These were my...

Concert Review: Kehlani at Merriweather Post Pavilion
While Kehlani’s latest tour is in honor of her latest self-titled album, the concert itself—The Kehlani World Tour—is far from a solo show. Kehlani has a number of rising and current R&B stars on tour with her, including Durand Bernarr, Isaia Huron, TheARTI$t, and...
Concert Review: BENEE @
When New Zealand-born singer BENEE stepped out onto the stage in a Wednesday Addams-esque, quirky and eccentric, black and white outfit, the crowd roared with excitement. I was both buzzing with anticipation for the amazing performance I was about to witness and very...
Concert Review: Blood Orange @ The Anthem

Concert Review: Twilight Override @ The Lincoln Theatre: A Night With Three Tweedys
Short beards, knitwear, too-small beanies, and wire-rimmed glasses; on Oct. 26, Jeff Tweedy brought his classically eccentric audience to the Lincoln Theatre. The room itself felt like a relic from another decade: red velvet seats, ornate gold trim curling around the...
Concert Review: Yung Lean @ The Anthem
As I walked into The Anthem, the vast venue was filled with flashing yellow, blue, and red lights. The stage was taken over by the opening act, The Taxidermists. Their upbeat indie vibe grasped the attention of the crowd and their songs “Sweet Guilt” and “Love You”...
Concert Review: Lecrae @ The Fillmore
After the lights dimmed and music faded out at The Fillmore in Silver Spring, Maryland, the crowd went silent, buzzing with anticipation and energy. The venue was full, and people lined up from wall to wall. Everyone was getting ready to experience the Restoration...
Concert Review: 2hollis @ The Fillmore
The White Tiger can not be easily described. As a simultaneously viral and elusive star, 2hollis has gained a cult-like following who all desperately want to replicate his aura, with many fans donning the single black line of makeup that Hollis wears under his eyes...
