Being from Kansas City, we are already the prime market for Catfish and The Bottlemen. So when we heard they were playing Bonnaroo this year, we knew we had to race over and catch their set. Check out our highlights below!

K.Flay‘s energy was insane on Day 2 of Bonnaroo Music & Arts Festival last week in Manchester, TN. Though her look a stark contrast from last time we got to see her live — her departure from an all black ensemble into simple, bright colored shorts and a t-shirt fit the heat of the outdoor stage a little better — her flare for the dramatic and fun were almost more palpable than before. Check out some highlights below!

We are so late to the game on this, but one of our favorite new music discoveries of Bonnaroo 2019 would have to be Nahko And Medicine For The People. Soulful, smooth, and electrifying, the band had us grooving from the very start. Photographers throughout the photo pit were naming their favorite songs before anyone even stepped up to the mic, so you know they are something special. Check out some photos below!

You know that band that you’ve seen multiple times, but every time they begin their set, you’re automatically transferred to a different time and space? Perhaps not because their brand of music is necessarily throwback-inspired, but because the way with which they carry themselves and have the ability to draw their audience in is almost transcendent? That, for many, is Cherry Glazerr. Our first set of Bonnaroo 2019, they got the party going. Highlights below.

This past weekend was absolute insanity at the heat-fueled annual Boulevardia Beer, Food & Music Festival in Kansas City, Missouri. Though the latter part of Day 2 did, unfortunately, get rained out — gotta love that unpredictable midwest weather — what did transpire on the blacktop outside HyVee Arena (Kemper Arena) was absolute magic. Photographer Ashleigh Lee brings us highlights, including sets from Fitz & The Tantrums, Young The Giant, Lovelytheband, and more.
Funk artist Boulevards (Jamil Rashad) recently released his brand new fourteen-track stunner YADIG! We learned quickly that this album is going to be included in our stack of favorites for 2019, hands down. From first track “Lord Knows”, there is a sense of absolute comfort in the landscape of this album, a feeling of warmth within its funk-filled tracks.
As Boulevards bounces from topic to topic with the introduction of each new track, we are taken back in time a bit to a sound that is very reminiscent of the 70s. Funk is what Boulevards has mastered, an unconventional type that finds these tracks perfect for a gallery opening, small backyard barbecue, or a wedding day soundtrack. To find something that versatile and this lush is absolutely unheard of, and we’re floored by the artistry of YADIG!
Check it out below!
