While folk singers normally give me the heebie-jeebies—all those feelings!—this one got through my defenses.
September 2016
Crazy is the New Normal (IDW)
The satire cuts deep in this latest collection of Tom Tomorrow’s political comic strip This Modern World.
Deepwater Horizon (Summit Entertainment, PG-13)
It pays remarkable tribute to the victims and survivors without feeling exploitative.
Miss Peregrine’s Home for Peculiar Children (20th Century Fox, PG-13)
This adaptation succeeds most of the time.
Delta Saints | 08.26.16
If blues, rock, punk, and outlaw country got together and had a musical baby, it was the Delta Saints.
On Tour: Rusted Root w/Devon Allman
I am excited to see another release and tour from my old friends.
Gavin DeGraw & Andy Grammer | 09.24.16
Andy Grammer’s a born performer: charming, talented, adorable, and authentic.
Jessica Hernandez and the Deltas | 09.18.16
These are the moments true live music fans treasure. Perfect is boring; we want realness.
Diana Wagman | Extraordinary October (Ig)
I kept reading, and sure enough, October meets two boys and becomes covered in magical abilities.
Beck | 09.23.16
Beck was in constant motion, even engaging in some banter and directing a sing along with the enthusiastic, adoring audience.
