Portland rockers Summer Cannibals released their fourth full-length this June, Can’t Tell Me No, which has proven to have a number of our favorite summertime jams… although not in the traditional sense… The album rings heavily of the best kinds of ‘90s rock, blending riot grrrl swagger with the...

Although you normally need to venture to Fishtown or South Philly to catch a good cozy, sweaty rock show in the City of Brotherly Love at Sisterly Affection, this weekend MilkBoy’s really got the Rock’N’Roll.  Saturday night the Center City bar/restaurant/venue hosts Thunderpussy, bluesy hard rockers who still believe...

It’s hard to imagine many people are having a cooler year than step-sisters Kelli Mayo and Peyton Bighorse (along with recent addition Kurtis Mayo, Kelli’s brother), better known as Skating Polly.  The post-riot grrrl, alt-rocking power-poppers recently wrapped a batch of dates supporting X, they’re preparing to join Kate...
