First and foremost, Two Door Cinema Club will always hold a spot in my heart. As much as I love their music, their debut album always reminds me of the time my first grandparent passed away, and that album will always trigger that memory for me. With that being said, it’s still a great album, and I haven’t stopped listening to in the year since. That means I’ll always give their new stuff a chance, too!

Concert Review: The Killers
Funny story about this concert. Back in July of 2021 I saw that tickets were going on sale for The Killers tour in October. My friend and I jumped on these tickets, and when I went to go put it in my calendar I thought, “ha, they got the day of the week wrong.” Nope. I just can’t read and bought a concert ticket over a year in advance. So here we are now, in October of 2022, and I have finally seen The Killers again for the first time in six years.

Now that I’ve gone through Don Broco’s entire discography (in reverse order because why not), I can now officially declare that I’m obsessed with these guys. Just ask my sister. She’s sick of it already.
Read moreConcert Review: Highly Suspect
It’s felt like a lifetime since I’ve seen Highly Suspect live! What a crime! Back in 2019 they released their third full-length, MCID, which was so, so good. My sister and I were supposed to catch them on tour in April of 2020, but you guessed it, the pandemic ruined that chance. Since then, the band has been hard at work on their next record, the recently released Midnight Demon Club.

Read moreHighly Suspect – Midnight Demon Club, Album Review
Highly Suspect is back! Not that they’ve been MIA for that long. Really, their third full-length album, MCID, only came out in 2019, but that pandemic has made that feel like a lifetime. It also doesn’t help that the band never got to fully tour on that album. All in all, that makes The Midnight Demon Club feel like a long time coming.
Read moreConcert Review: The Black Keys
Despite living in Ohio my whole life, and only a very short drive away from The Black Keys’ hometown of Akron, I’ve never actually seen these guys live before! I had the opportunity back eight years ago at Bunbury Music Festival down in Cincinnati, but just as they were due to play there was quite a bit of thunder and lightening. I wasn’t really prepared to die for The Black Keys that night.

Read moreDon Broco – Technology Album Review
After my spiral into obsession with Don Broco, it only makes sense now that I work backwards on their discography. That means Technology was up next! In reading about the album and listening to a handful of interviews, I knew the sound was going to be a little more polished and lean towards pop rock. That made me a little nervous, but here are my takeaways.
