Come one, come all! Tonight we are filming our announcement video for Life Is Beautiful and need all your beautiful and smiling faces to be a part of the action! Details below but come make some history with us and don’t forget, the Festival takes place October 26-27 in Downtown Las Vegas!.
Wow, Wow, Wow, just heard two sweet new remixes of GROUPLOVE’s “Itching On A Photograph” by Wolf Gang and The Very Best. I loved the song before but wow, these remixes are dope. I’d love to say you can listen and download below but I got it from their mailing list this afternoon so I’d suggest visiting www.grouplovemusic.com, sign up for their updates and perhaps you can get your hands on these remixes too.
And keeping on the GROUPLOVE topic for a moment, this Thursday my interview with Christian Zucconi runs in Vegas SEVEN so keep your eyes out for that as I preview the upcoming show on October 4 at The Cosmopolitan.
Fall tour starts Wednesday!
I couldn’t be more excited today for the fellas of Walk The Moon as they release their self titled debut album on RCA Records. Having had the pleasure of meeting the guys, interviewing them and seeing them in concert at Bonnaroo, Lollapalooza and here in Las Vegas I feel like I’ve kind of been along for the ride a little. I’m beyond stoked that they are now getting heavy airplay, being tabbed by MTV as a Push artist, Esquire.com adding them to the songs of the summer (for a second year in a row) and more. These guys are still ascending and it’s one of those things that just makes me smile; plus I think everyone should be digging their music and right in time for summer it’s perfect tunes to enjoy three months of sunshine. Added bonus, tune in to David Letterman tonight where the guys will be the special music act.

Next week Jimmy Cliff will take the stage and perform poolside at the Hard Rock Hotel here in Las Vegas. A few weeks ago I had the honor of speaking to him for a feature in Vegas SEVEN to preview the show. Before you read the below I have to tell you, not only is Jimmy Cliff an amazing musician but personally I believe he is an even better human being. He has such a beautiful outlook on life and is someone who we can all learn something from. Without further adieu, my interview with Jimmy Cliff. Hope to see everyone out at the pool next week.
No secret if you read this blog you know how big a fan of Young The Giant I am so naturally when the opportunity came to review their most recent show for Vegas SEVEN, I jumped on it. My review appears in the May 31 issue and since I can’t be biased in my reviews, there in print lies my true thoughts on the show. Having seen these guys a handful of times, this was by far the most disappointing show to date and really a shame since I’ve seen them absolutely crush it the other times. Hoping when I see them again, next week, that energy and enthusiasm is back!
Last week I had the pleasure of catching the Portugal. The Man show at Veil at the Silverton. See below for my review which appears in the April 12 issue of Vegas SEVEN.
Last week I had the pleasure of attending a fun and energetic performance by Vintage Trouble over at Book & Stage inside The Cosmopolitan. See below for my review which appears in the February 16 issue of Vegas SEVEN.
