Kristen’s Remote Streaming Concert Calendar: 5/10-5/16

This past week, Twin Atlantic celebrated the 10-year anniversary of the release of their album, Free. There was a listening party, a previously unreleased Making Of Documentary, and some limited edition merch.  To commemorate one of my personal favorite albums, I purchased a “You Don’t Get Better Than Me Tea” mug for my ever-growing (and heavily utilized) collection of mugs.  It felt great to spend some time back in 2011! I’ve been living in the past a lot lately, musically and otherwise. I’m not sure if this is a consequence of the pandemic and the lack of live shows (my favorite vehicle for music discovery), or simply a product of my advancing age…

But don’t worry, I’m still doing my best to find you all the great rising bands. With the release of the deluxe edition, this week I was pulled back into the delicious soundscape of Rightfield’s debut album, Rightfield, One while also enjoying new singles from Paris Youth Foundation, Luna Bay, and Matilda Mann who I heard for the first time last week at the It’s a School Night showcase.

Next week’s streams feature Charlotte Cardin at Cover Nation, Part 2 of The Milk Carton Kids at The Troubadour and The Great Escape Festival has an online component (and stellar lineup).

Kristen’s Remote Streaming Concert Calendar: 5/3-5/9

I finished Anne with an E this week and although my feelings have yet to settle on some of particulars, watching the show was a delight and it certainly deserved more seasons. Anne Shirly, the character, is an inspiration and after given short shrift by the Netflix series, which ended before Anne really begins to grow up and into herself, I turned this weekend to my DVDs of the Kevin Sullivan miniseries from the 80’s which were both incredibly satisfying and nostalgic.

This week’s musical highlights included The Milk Carton Kids’ livestream from The Troubadour. The music, the banter – all on point and reminding me why I love this band.  The stream featured music from earlier in the duo’s pairing and, after watching it twice, I was compelled to venture down the road of listening to old Joey Ryan tunes and, with glee, I rediscovered gems such as “Like a Cloak, “Queen Jane” and “Permanent”, the last of which was played on the stream along with Kenneth Pattengale.

As for new music, I can’t get enough of Charlotte Cardin’s new album, Phoenix. You should check it out!

Kristen’s Remote Streaming Concert Calendar: 4/26-5/2

To celebrate Earth Day, I took a walk around my neighborhood, taking pictures of flowers. It’s a good time of year for flowers, both planted and wild, and I live in a place with a variety of both. I posted the photos and my great aunt requested more wildflowers so this weekend, I went on a grand adventure to hunt down more flowers and ended up walking along ocean-side cliffs, rocky beaches, and a couple not so easy to get to random fields.  The soundtrack to my adventure was provided by Bilk, Pep Squad, Calva Louise and the brilliant new album from Sir Sly.  Now every time Bilk’s insistent earworm “Stop Pranging Out” comes into my head it will be accompanied, in my mind, by oddly juxtaposed relaxing ocean vistas.

As for next week’s soundtrack, it will hopefully include livestream sets from The Milk Carton Kids, Morgxn, Dean Lewis and more:

Kristen’s Remote Streaming Concert Calendar: 4/19-4/25

I’ve made tentative plans with my sci-fi/fantasy book club to have our next meeting in person   and, let me tell you, book club has never felt so illicitly thrilling! I’ve also bought a ticket to another concert in the fall even though it’s still hard for me to fathom how the return to live, in-person music is going to go. I’m starting to pay more attention to show announcements and will do my best to include my Los Angeles picks on my list here until we revert back to an in person show list. In the meantime, I’m rather enjoying my remote showcases, particularly Monday/Wednesday with afternoons at Scruff of the Neck and the recent virtual return of It’s a School night in the evenings. Because of these showcases, last week was all about “Stop Prangin Out” by Bilk and “Freeway” by Briston Maroney until I fell down a familiar Twin Atlantic rabbit hole and listened to nothing but Free for three days.  Sometimes you just need comfort music.

Next week kicks off Season 3 of Tony Lucca in the Mo’Verb Lounge, finds Birdy joining Covers Nation and celebrates Earth Day with a couple choice music festival options.

Kristen’s Remote Streaming Concert Calendar: 3/29-4/4

72 hours of continues music streaming courtesy of livexlive plus two days’ worth of panels from WonderCon at Home and the wind-down of Spring Training baseball games made for a full weekend spent in front of the computer.  I’m starting to see in-person events pop up on some venue calendars which makes me wonder how many more nights and weekends will be spent in this way, surrounded by screens. Perhaps I should start preparing my back and knees which have very much benefited from this sitting on the cough version of concert-going.

This coming week features another round of live shows from Paste Magazine with acts such as Nick Waterhouse, The Driver Era, Run River North, Sir Sly, and Cary Brothers. All coming at you from my favorite space, The Hotel Cafe! We’ve also got a livestream from Lucy Spraggan who recently released one of my favorite new albums, Choices.

Kristen’s Remote Streaming Concert Calendar: 3/22-3/28

2020 brought a lot of loss and heartache, but nothing hit me harder than the last-minute cancellation of my favorite week of the year at SXSW. Last week, SXSW returned, in an online format and I’m pleased as punch to report that the event was by far the best conference/festival/online event I’ve attended in the past year. I could tell you all about the tech trends, up and coming innovations and inspiring conversations. I could rattle off my list of top films and TV shows watched or detail new products I sampled or interactive events I attended. But the overall takeaway is that the magic of SXSW was there and for me, this feels like it could be the turning point to slowly getting back some of what was missing from the past year.

The only thing that fell drastically short of the usual expectations for SXSW was the music showcases Yes, I was able to discover some new talent and sure, it was fun to see the artists perform in their own countries or backyards. The chat happening alongside the performances also made it easy to connect with both the bands and other like-minded fans and industry professionals. However, nothing will ever ever be able to replace live music, that intangible connectedness it fosters and the feeling that hits when watching a new favorite band perform for the first time.

Based on what I saw last week, moving up the ranks of “must see” acts include Nadia Reid, Hachiku, Alexander Biggs, Ryan McMullen, and Lilla Vargen.

Kristen’s Remote Streaming Concert Calendar: 3/15-3/21

Daylight Savings hit me hard this year. But after I wrenched myself out of my bed and into some version of wakefulness, I stumbled into a Morgxn livestream and balance (nearly) felt restored! Usually this week, I’d be heading to Austin for SXSW and twice on this day in the past 10 years, I’ve seen Morgxn in Texas, so the stream held multiple layers of meaning.
