III Points, the festival that for the past half-decade has kicked off the season when music gets interesting in Miami, won’t take place next month. This past in May, promoters announced they would forgo the fall event for new dates in February. The change came after a multitude of obstacles hampered III Points in its first five years.
For a band that has never visited Miami, let alone performed in Florida, Hinds has more connections to the tropical town than its members realize.
Christina Aguilera, David Byrne, Father John Misty, and more of the best concerts in Miami September 24 through September 30.
People of Miami, put away your Drake merch. The much-anticipated performance by the superstar rapper today and tomorrow has been postponed. No, this is not a drill. Drake was supposed to appear at the American Airlines Arena in downtown Miami with Migos for concerts scheduled for tonight…
Musical influences are cyclical. There have been stages in rock history when everyone was trying to sing like Bob Dylan and other eras when everyone channeled their inner Lou Reed. But among the indie rockers who’ve pushed boundaries and topped the charts since the turn of the century, one has…
Earlier this month, the posthardcore innovators of Thrice released their tenth album, Palms. It is their first for Epitaph Records. Next Thursday, September 27, they’ll return to Fort Lauderdale’s Revolution Live. Thrice’s drummer, Riley Breckenridge, recently spoke with New Times about the bandmates’ two-decade career…
The swoon-worthy tween heartthrobs who once made up Britain’s One Direction in some ways define the word “millennial.” Five teenage boys grew into young men sitting on a gilded pop throne, their names forever associated with the group’s enormous success. Nowadays, more than two years after One Direction shook its…
In the hyperaccelerated and social media-fueled hellscape of 2018, it sometimes becomes difficult to recall what happened two years ago, much less two weeks ago. For instance, you probably don’t remember that before singer-songwriter Josh Tillman — better known as the acerbic Father John Misty…
Asked how his rock band got its name, singer/guitarist Albae Camino recites the dictionary definition of “analog.” The gist is that “computers are digital devices; humans are analog,” he says. “We brainstormed short, simple names representing the way we sound. The four of us go for a pure…
The indie-pop double-header of Børns and Twin Shadow at Revolution Live Tuesday evening was a Coachella-loving, flower-crown-wearing hipster’s dream come true. Both artists are touring with new records, and both could easily headline a show in any number of midsize rock clubs around the nation, but it was clear that Børns was the unquestioned object of adoration this night.
Grammer’s the Good Parts Tour hits the Revolution stage with tunes and… poetry?
In the era of pop auteurs such as Beyoncé, Lady Gaga, and Rihanna, it should be remembered that much of that change began with Christina Aguilera, who was only 21 years old when she recorded the album that remains her most culturally significant: 2002’s Stripped.
She approaches most things in life that way. Raunchy and emphatically real both in her music and her public image, the Brooklyn-born West Indian Junglepussy styles herself in exuberant tropical colors and patterns and changes her weave to match her mood, all while emanating a spiritual-guru level of self-assurance: It’s the power of the Pussy.
Blowing money on trips and chains is cool, but giving back to charity is even cooler.
Rainbow Kitten Surprise might sound like something on your child’s Christmas wish list. But it’s not. The latest band to hit the indie scene boasts a tour de force of high-energy shows and mystic lyrics. They hail from the mountains of Boone, North Carolina.
Junglepussy, Noah Cyrus, Drake with Migos, and more of the best concerts in Miami September 17 through September 23.
Two middle-aged guys in loud Hawaiian shirts and captain’s hats puff away on pipes in front of a painted backdrop of an ocean. The scene sounds like it could be plucked from a slapstick comedy, right? Throw in a DJ booth on a casino club floor and mixes of ’70s and ’80s soft rock featuring occasional screeching seagulls, and it becomes almost hard to believe.
Game of Thrones composer Ramin Djawadi is bringing the fantasy world of Westeros to South Florida with the help of a full orchestra and choir, plus some kick-ass special effects and stage designs.
Juana Molina is as strange and special as her music. The Argentine singer-songwriter speaks in metaphors and concepts, while her experimental folk/pop music reverberates eerie layers of repetitive synths, sounds, and vocals. Molina’s journey toward creating music is its own story. The influence of her parents — tango singer Horacio Molina and…
Electro-pop singer Børns, born Garrett Borns, is hard to pin down as an artist. Several years ago, the 26-year-old Michigan native went from the tundra of the Midwest to the (mostly) sunny skies of Los Angeles, where he lived in a treehouse and stole Taylor Swift’s mom’s heart along the way via singles such as “Electric Love” and “10,000 Emerald Pools.”
In a few short years, Wynwood Fear Factory has become Miami’s premier Halloween-weekend event thanks in large part to its heavyweight EDM talent. This year won’t be any different. Galantis, RL Grime, and Dimitri Vegas & Like Mike are set to headline the two-day event. Also schedule to perform are Deorro, Duke Dumont, Getter, Keys N Krates, and others.
It’s been three months since the rap game lost Jahseh “XXXTentacion” Onfroy to senseless gun violence. His mother Cleo, sister Arianna, famous friends, and an abundance of fans spent the summer mourning the Lauderhill native at various locations, including the place of his murder in Deerfield Beach…
