Tacos & Tequila Thorwback Festival
And I mean we’re throwing it way back. Think late 1990s and early 2000s radio hits from your favorites like Chingy, Fat Joe, and Lil Jon. And then throw some margaritas and flights of tacos in the mix and you’ve got yourself a unique (and touring!) festival.

I decided to end the year with one more, completely random concert. Riff Raff! Had it not been local, there is no chance you would have caught me there, but I couldn’t resist. I feel like I’m a glutton for punishment.

I’ve have been eagerly anticipating Highly Suspect’s new album since their sophomore album got them two more Grammy nominations. And I’ve got to say, it was totally worth the wait! This is one of the most eclectic evolutions I’ve seen a band successfully make in a long time.
