It’s hard to ignore sexy older women — “bad moms,” if you will — especially now that the Mila Kunis-starring sequel is in theaters. Whereas younger women are naively preoccupied with perfecting their Instagram followers-to-following ratio, Miami MILFs exude a self-acceptance that, in a town that hypersexualizes women, can be attained only through hard-earned experience.
Miami Christmas music is a rich tapestry of tradition and trash. Selecting the best Christmas music, no matter who you are, is like picking the least painful ear infection of your life. Only sociopaths masquerading as normal humans willingly listen to holiday tunes anytime besides December 25. In fact, a…
Following the debut of their initial lineup in late November, Okeechobee Music & Arts Festival has just announced several artists who will be joining the festival in the Sunshine Grove next March.
Katy Perry has had a rough 2017. Her latest album, Witness, debuted at number one but ultimately sputtered. Its songs were largely ignored by radio, her music videos barely registered a blip around the pop-culture water cooler, and the album failed her mission statement to make “purposeful pop.” Truth be told, her bleach-blond…
How did the origins of the traveling urban art exhibition, “Art, Beats and Lyrics,” get its name? “Back in 2004, street art wasn’t as represented as it is now,” explains artist Dwayne Wright, AKA Dubelyoo. “My partner, Jabari Graham, came up with the idea after working in marketing for the circus
The year might have been a political and social dumpster fire, but at least Miami got to see some decent shows. The most-read New Times concert reviews of the past year represent a diverse mix of genres, personalities, and venues, but they have one thing in common: They kept South Florida rocking through all the ups and downs.
Merry Litmas. Here’s a roundup of this year’s ten best holiday parties in Miami.
After the breakup of his band Modernage and the long-distance logistics of Hunters of the Alps, Mario Garibaldi hasn’t totally soured on the band model, but he’s enjoying the freedom and flexibility that comes with a more condensed lineup.
Dozens of passengers, including artists who were in Miami for Art Basel, were left scrambling this weekend when their Delta flight was delayed for 17 hours.
Christmas comes early this week when Y100’s Jingle Ball takes over the BB&T Center Sunday for a festive celebration of pop music. You’ll find acts like Demi Lovato, Logic, Fifth Harmony, and Nick Jonas ready to spread some holiday cheer. However, make sure not to skip out on pop royalty when…
The legendary rap crew issued a barrage of hits during its Art Basel show.
The patio of Ice Palace Studios, the home of NADA Miami, is a haven for cool liberal dads and artsy couples. Picnic tables and grassy knolls create a homey cookout vibe for the colorful and large-spectacled patrons of NADA. In shorts and accompanied by Jim Wilbur with acoustic guitars, Superchunk’s Mac McCaughan is the cool liberal dad of the afternoon.
When Lee Burridge found himself disappointed by the minimal sounds dominating electronic music, he decided to do something about it. The British house and techno DJ sought out music with a more emotional response. Out of that yearning came his record label, All Day I Dream.
Janet Jackson, especially during the Control era, laid out the blueprint by which the pop stars of today rebel against their creative limitations.
Art Basel visitors can expect to hear scratching sounds coming from the old-fashioned turntables at Las Rosas this Thursday. Scratches That Matter, debuting during Miami Art Week, is a party designed to present female-identifying DJs and turntablists and to raise scholarship money for underprivileged youth.
If you were were 13 to 16 years old in 2007, there’s a chance Paramore was then the most important band in the world to you. Maybe you read articles on WikiHow such as “How to Be a Scene Kid” and scribbled on your Chucks with a Sharpie. Maybe you even took a certain photo of Williams to the Regis salon at Dadeland Mall and told the stylist, “I want this haircut,” and regretted it for years.
Performance art will abound throughout Miami during the weekend of Art Basel, but few performers are as committed to putting on an insane show as Daikaiju, which will return to South Florida when it plays Saturday night at Kill Your Idol. The band’s show at the same venue this past October poured onto the street, where the band, audience, and pedestrians became entwined with volume and flames.
With wild performances, a tumultuous relationship, drugs, and genuine style, Royal Trux’s Jennifer Herrema and Neil Hagerty offered an authentic alternative to ’90s alt rock. From 1987 to 2001, the then couple made beloved albums like Twin Infinitives and Pound for Pound and performed memorable antics that placed them in dictionary under “Fuck…
Over the past decade, the epicenter of Miami Clubland has shifted noticeably westward. While the promise of the ’80s kitsch and cooling winds of South Beach once defined a late night (or early morning) out on the town, Miamians and curious out-of-towners have migrated to the mainland in search of…
Did Björk just dab? Going into Mana Wynwood Tuesday night, I wasn’t sure what to expect from Björk’s DJ set. She’s not known as a DJ in the traditional sense of the word, and her live shows can feel frenetic on their own.
What’s keeping you at home during Miami Art Week? Is it that a lot of events are “by invitation only,” and the thought of having to schmooze your way in seems exhausting? Or is it the exorbitant prices some venues are charging? That’s why this week is so great. There’s something for every…
Backed by a green screen and a beat, Super Deluxe streamed Alvarez’s rap for 26 hours on its website and Facebook Live.
