Katie Toupin made the comment this was her favorite show they’ve ever done- last Thursday we were in the same boat. The crowd’s adoration and support for the local band Houndmouth (now becoming nationally acclaimed) was felt by all, as the room was at max capacity with family, friends and faithful fans. [Aubrey] I can’t even … More Houndmouth’s visit home
The basics of The Lone Bellow, at first, are nothing that stand out as particularly extraordinary. Two guys and a girl, some guitars, mandolin, drums, keys… pretty basic. Their songwriting is honest and catchy and they are good looking people. But seeing this group perform live takes The Lone Bellow to a whole other level. … More 3rd time’s a charm – The Lone Bellow returns to a sold out crowd
Do502 teamed up with WFPK and Leo Weekly as well as Louisville’s top notch local music venues (Mercury Ballroom, Headliners Music Hall, Zanzabar and The New Vintage) to put on an inaugural Free Week. Starting January 27th with a kick off party at Haymarket Whiskey Bar, local music fans were able to check out established … More #FreeWeekLou takes over the city’s music scene
New York based, true party band, Spirit Animal impressed a small but willing crowd at Haymarket Whiskey Bar last night. The bands’ well designed and expertly crafted hard to describe, pop-funk-rock sound was incredibly entertaining as was their epic dance moves. Lead singer Steve Cooper is a sight to see- his overt charisma could woo any … More Spirit Animal sneaks into Louisville and makes a raucous
Saturday was a full day for live music in Louisville, which meant we had a packed schedule. Do502 once again was killing it with a special show with Olivia Jean. The Nashville based band made its Louisville debut at the brand new Bermuda Highway Boutique (which hosted its first live show.) The crowd was small, … More A Louisville kind of Saturday
I caught a glimpse of Steelism at the July Waterfront Wednesday this year as they opened up for Ben Sollee, but as you all know by now, timing can be a bit of an issue, so I wasn’t able to see them play a full set. We made up for that this past Friday, thanks … More Steelism delivers instrumental set at Zbar
I decided to do a bit of solo adventuring again since Aubrey wasn’t back in town yet from Thanksgiving. With Do502’s advice in mind, I ventured to Decca to see Twin Limb perform. I was glad I decided on going because I had missed them at the Do502 launch party a few weeks ago. It’s … More Twin Limb packs Decca’s cellar
You should consider yourself lucky if you were able to attend this weekend’s launch party for the up and coming Do502. Party-goers were only let in on their list status and the location a mere 24 hours in advance of the show. The launch took place at Play Louisville, just next door to Butchertown Market where … More Do502 launches in the right direction
We still don’t know the location, and only a select few actually know if they’re getting in. Do502 certainly has kept its lips sealed about its official launch party this Saturday night. Folks have been able to RSVP now for a while for the chance to be included on this selective list, but that still … More Do502’s Super Secret Launch Party: A Preview
Act I: We show up late per usual, (sorry, openers) but the first band is still playing. Arkells, harking from Ontario, is rocking the stage, with a surprising number of dedicated fans. You can immediately tell that they’re Canadian, but lead vocalist Max Kerman babbles about his love for Southern accents in a story that … More Getting intimate with Tokyo Police Club & Arkells
