Hot Hot Heat and Hey Rosetta!
Presented by North Star Bar at North Star Bar September 5, 2010 Formed in 1999 in the seemingly improbable locale of Victoria, British Columbia (perhaps the launch of a new British (Columbian) invasion?), Hot Hot Heat have, in their relatively short life-span, metamorphosed in a way coincidentally implicit in the elemental dynamism of their name. Heat as force of change. Hot Hot Heat have transformed from within the confines of their tense, angular synth-rock beginnings while losing none of their sense of urgency. Combining ‘60s mod rock,... |

Presented by First Unitarian Church of Philadelphia at First Unitarian Church of Philadelphia September 7, 2010 Bethany Cosentino was no stranger to the stage by the time she began working on recordings with bandmate Bobb Bruno under the name Best Coast in 2009.

"I had interest from major labels," she said in a 2009 interview with Popsense,... |

Presented by Strand Capitol Performing Arts Center at Strand Capitol Performing Arts Center September 8, 2010 In 2010, with the release of their Nonesuch recording Genuine Negro Jig, the Carolina Chocolate Drops confirm their place in the music pantheon.

Presented by The Note at The Note September 9, 2010 Stockholm Syndrome is now ready to serve up its potent brew of provocative songs and thrilling, genre-transcending musicianship to American audiences once again.

Jackson Browne with David Lindley
Presented by Tower Theater at Tower Theater September 11, 2010 In many ways, Jackson Browne was the quintessential sensitive Californian singer-songwriter of the early '70s. Only Joni Mitchell and James Taylor ranked alongside him in terms of influence, but neither artist tapped into the post-'60s Zeitgeist like Browne. While the majority of his classic '70s work was unflinchingly personal, it nevertheless provided a touchstone for a generation of maturing baby boomers coming to terms with adulthood. Not only did his introspective, literate lyrics... |
