Countdown to Life is Beautiful 2014: Tycho

30 Sep

24 days until the second Life is Beautiful festival in Downtown Las Vegas, October 24-26. In anticipation, at DoYouHearTheMusic.com I’ll be running down an artist or two on the lineup! If you haven’t gotten your tickets, do so at www.lifeisbeautiful.com and if you have, awesome and I can’t wait to see you!

It’s exciting to know that a handful of artists are making their first play in Las Vegas at Life is Beautiful and here’s another one, Tycho.  I’ve spoken to several people who are all amped up about finally get a chance to see Tycho live let alone in their hometown.  Currently touring as a four-piece, the brainchild of Scott Hansen has never sounded so good!  I’ve had the lucky opportunity to see Tycho a couple times this year and cannot wait for them descend upon the neon desert for what is sure to be an amazing performance.  Get ready for an instrumental electronic experience and make sure you carve out time to see them perform on Saturday, October 25.

And if you want an excellent read, check out THIS feature from PandoDaily.com titled, “How to make it in the new music industry: The long slow ascent of electronic star Tycho.”

Countdown to Life is Beautiful 2014: St. Paul & The Broken Bones

27 Sep

The home stretch towards the second Life is Beautiful festival in Downtown Las Vegas, October 24-26. In anticipation, at DoYouHearTheMusic.com I’ll be running down an artist or two on the lineup! If you haven’t gotten your tickets, do so at www.lifeisbeautiful.com and if you have, awesome and I can’t wait to see you!

Let me lay it down like this.  If you are coming to Life is Beautiful, this is one of your can’t miss performances of the festival, St. Paul & The Broken Bones.  These guys have absolutely blown up in less than two years and 2015 is primed to be massive for this Birmingham, Alabama outfit.  Not only is their album, Half The City, something you should have on repeat but St. Paul & The Broken Bones have delivered one of the best shows I’ve seen in 2014.   They ooze soul and when you hear Paul Janeway’s voice, you may just have a religious experience.

Countdown to Life is Beautiful: The Head and The Heart

19 Sep

The home stretch towards the second Life is Beautiful festival in Downtown Las Vegas, October 24-26. In anticipation, at DoYouHearTheMusic.com I’ll be running down an artist or two on the lineup! If you haven’t gotten your tickets, do so at www.lifeisbeautiful.com and if you have, awesome and I can’t wait to see you!

The Head and The Heart head back to Vegas only for the second time and I couldn’t be more excited to have this band on my lineup. Their first time was back in December 2010 opening for Dave Matthews & Tim Reynolds and well before they had released their debut album. It should be quite the show and if you’ve been lucky enough to catch them on tour or at a festival this summer you know they are sounding ridiculously amazing right now.

Fun fact, “These Days Are Numbered” off the album Let’s Be Still was used in the 2014 Life is Beautiful lineup announcement video.

You can catch The Head and The Heart on Friday, October 24 at Life is Beautiful.
