Concert Preview: Gold Motel at Earth House
If you didn’t have the chance to see Greta Morgan perform live with her newly-formed band, Gold Motel, when they rocked the Vollrath earlier this summer, your opportunity has arrived. This upcoming Friday, August 5th, Gold Motel will take the stage at Earth House to help you to reminisce of the good days of summer and kiss the bad ones goodbye. Their California sweetness in such songs as “Safe...
Interview with Country Artist Corey Cox

Corey Cox has his cowboy boots on, ready to give an interview for IndyConcerts. His smile is genuine, his heart is proud, and his words are subtle yet certain. Shortly after beginning his run as a country music artist, his career is about to take off. But the small-town Hoosier from Pendleton is not overly confident just yet, believing his patience to have taken him far already...
Concert Preview: Indianapolis Lilith Fair 2010
If, like myself, you’re revving up for the weekend and dreading the week ahead, here’s something to look forward to beyond Sunday: Lilith Fair. Founded by Sarah McLachlan, Dan Fraser, and Terry McBride back in 1997, this summer’s revival features the likes of over 28 female artists spanning from Cat Power to the Bangles and back. This year’s tour makes a stop in Indianapolis...
Concert Preview: Rascal Flatts at Hoosier Lottery Grandstand
Great things are to be expected as this concert-filled summer wraps up! In addition to Jack Johnson, John Mayer, and Lilith Fair, a slew of country artists will be making their way to Indiana, including Keith Urban, Sugarland, Rascal Flatts, and Toby Keith.
As one of last summer’s hottest concerts, Rascal Flatts will be returning to heat things up once again. On August 7th, Rascal Flatts will...
Concert Review: Beach Fossils at the Bishop
The first time I saw Beach Fossils perform, it was at Market Hotel in Brooklyn. The venue is what you would expect from a Bushwick venue: dirty, littered with graffiti, strewn with youngsters aching for a mind-blowing trip, and completely awesome. Mind you– I might have been the only sober one in the audience. Mind you– I might have been a bit intimidated, especially coming from…...
Small Black/Beach Fossils: Brooklyn to Bloomington

This past Friday night at the Bishop in Bloomington, a welcoming crowd gathered to see two bands from Brooklyn play: Small Black, and the Beach Fossils. IndyConcerts caught up with both bands prior to the concert to discuss their latest projects, and of course– Lebron James.
Small Black:
Talk to me about your progress so far as a band and where you see yourself in...
Concert Preview: Small Black at the Bishop
Along with my current favorites, the Beach Fossils, Small Black will be playing at the Bishop tomorrow night in Bloomington. Originally from Long Island, Small Black is a two-man troop with an eclectic yet enticingly under-produced sound, much like that of the Beach Fossils. “Despicable Dogs” was featured on Pitchfork’s The Playlist last August, and the boys have not slowed down since....
Album Review: Eminem, “Recovery”
If ever there was an album equivalent to the perfect mixed drink, Eminem’s Recovery is it. As a collective composition of producers, writers, and guest artists, it is Eminem’s ode to collaboration more than anything else. Or rather, it is an album that quintessentially heralds its name: Recovery; “the regaining of or possibility of regaining something lost or taken away.” In...
Indianapolis Concert Preview: Beach Fossils

The first time I saw the Beach Fossils play was at a nice little place in Brooklyn called “Market Hotel.” Sounds classy, right? Sure, it may be one of my favorite venues in Brooklyn to see up and coming bands, or to marvel at the vast array of hipsters, but it certainly deems no worthy adjectives such as “classy.” With this said, it should be no surprise...
Indianapolis Concert Preview: O.A.R. at White River
It was only a few summers ago that I first discovered O.A.R.’s #1 hit, “Love and Memories,” and then proceeded to listen to it every day for, oh I dunno, an exceedingly long time. But now we all have the opportunity to jam, and at the perfect venue to make matters even better: the Lawn at White River State Park. Originally from Rockville, Maryland, O.A.R. (Of a Revolution) quickly...
