Happy Easter! It’s a little different this year, but I’m still doing my best to celebrate with some reading (book club has not been cancelled!) and homemade boba tea. I also spent some time this weekend at the Seven Layers streaming music festival with artists like Lewis Watson, Minke, and Noah Kahan.
Other music highlights from last week include Irontom’s Jam in the Van, the streaming debut of Ally from The Virginmarys, Matt of The Classic Crime playing “Seattle” during his weekly Twitch show and Nick Anderson from The Wrecks breaking out “I’ll Be” by Edwin McCain for The Noise. I love all my rock bands breaking it down, but I do miss the high energy insanity of the shows. This is why I need to give a shout out to Aussie band Bakers Eddy who, as a toned down two piece, somehow made me feel the rock vibes. Was it the canned audience cheering? Maybe it was the 2am hour at which I was watching? At any rate, they rocked and I needed that.
We shall see what shows pop up for next week. I’ll be keeping my eyes on the major platforms (FB=Facebook; IG=Instagram; YT=YouTube) and updated the calendar as I see it, but here is what I have for recommendations so far:
