Norah Jones’ talent has never been in question, and she proved why with an outstanding performance at the Murat Theatre on Saturday night. The audience was so diverse and her performance was so unique and eclectic, that even the pickiest ears were pleased with the sounds delivered. Much of the concert was devoted to her most recent album “The Fall”, but she threw in a lot of different... 

Mark down May 7 on your calendar, because Band of Horses is rolling into Indy opening up for Pearl Jam. On paper this seems like an odd pairing. In one corner you have Pearl Jam, a band that was at the forefront of the grunge movement. In the other corner you have Band of Horses, an established indie rock band that has taken on a more country rock sound as of late. Of course the one thing these bands... 

Norah Jones will be at the Murat Theatre this Saturday as see makes a stop here in Indy touring in support of here most recent album, “The Fall”.  Her unique brand of music and awe inspiring talent should provide concertgoers with a very enjoyable evening. Jones literally burst onto the music scene in 2002 with her debut album, “Come Away with Me”. The album received five... 

I have been anticipating a new Band of Horses album ever since I listened to their most recent offering, “Cease to Begin”.  Lucky me, I don’t have to wait much longer. The group has announced their third album, “Infinite Arms”, will reach the masses on May 18. One thing that is a bit puzzling is that the album, as of now, doesn’t have a label to be released on. Famed indie label Sub Pop... 

Here We Go Magic and White Rabbits will be teaming up for a spring tour and will be making stop here in Indy on April 26 at Radio Radio. This spring tour will be a nice warm up for both groups, afterward they will go on separate touring stints with some Indie heavyweights. Here We Go Magic will be opening for the New Pornographers for month of May and will also be making an appearance at the Pitchfork... 

Joanna Newsom’s tour for her recently released triple album “Have One on Me” just got a lot more interesting. Fleet Foxes frontman Robin Pecknold will be opening for the talented folk star on six of her dates. March 31st in Bloomington at the Buskirk-Chumley Theatre just happens to be one of those six. Pecknold’s talents, much like Newsom, are endless. Fronting what is quite... 

One of Indie Rock’s best new bands will be venturing down to Bloomington on March 23. Real Estate will be playing The Bishop with label mates Woods on what will be a pretty amazing double bill. Ticket information can be found here. If you have not heard of Real Estate, I strongly urge you to check out the New Jersey quartet.  They released their awe inspiring self titled debut late last year and... 

It’s been a while since we heard anything from terrific experimental band Yeasayer, but they have returned with their sophomore effort, “Odd Blood”. The follow up to their outstanding debut “All Hour Cymbals” is much more poppy than the former and is step down for the Brooklyn group. Upon first listen, I had to remind myself that this is the same group that gave me such great tracks such... 

With award season coming to a close and the biggest show of all looming (the Oscars), why not review a soundtrack. If you can take away one thing from a film like “Crazy Heart”, it is that Jeff Bridges gives a performance for the ages and is worthy of all the accolades he has received thus far. Something else that can be taken away is that the music in the film is shines a light on old country,... 

These are the types of stories I love. Titus Andronicus will embark on a huge tour across the states this spring. The Jersey group will make a stop here in Indy on April 20 at Radio Radio. Now that is good news for us here in Indy, but wouldn’t you like to give back to the band and show them some hospitality and give them a place to stay for the night. Well you’re in luck, the band posted on their...
