We’ve talked about our obsession with morgxn before. His songs “home” and “hard pill to swallow” are so dynamic and catchy. I caught up with him at Empire Control Room. It was the last day of SXSW and it was hot as hell outside, but that didn’t stop the crowd from turning up to watch morgxn. In addition to his single he previewed the new tracks off his soon-to-be released EP ‘Vital’.

If you’re an avid teen drama series fanatic, chances are you’ve heard Cat Pierce’s sultry voice on more than one instance. Being apart of the Pretty Little Liars fandom, I hear Pierce at least once a week. The show’s theme song, “Secret,” was recorded by she and her sister Allison. She and her sister Allison were both apart of The Pierces but recently CAT has decided to go solo.

Pickle Juice & Melodrama: A Modest Mouse Concert

It all started normally enough. With Honey-Nut Cheerios and Chipotle respectively inhaled, the usual kerfuffle of parking sorted out, and the journey to Comerica Theatre in downtown Phoenix accomplished, the roommate and I took some time to enjoy the scenery out front of the venue. Watching a guy yelling about selling tickets right next to a guy who was carrying on about needing tickets was one point of interest, and trying to guess which concert-goer went with what band was another.
