Day 1 at Sasquatch! Music Festival 2018 was jaw-dropping. We started off our day at the Bigfoot stage, enjoying the musical stylings of Washington-based Giants in The Trees. The entire band was entertaining from the very first lines of the first song, to the end of the set. And we’re more than smitten with the way that Krist Novoselic danced while playing the accordion.

On May 25th – otherwise known as Day 1 at Sasquatch! Music Festival in Quincy, Washington – The Suffers made a phenomenal performance overlooking a beautiful crowd at The Gorge close to sunset. It was an invigorating set, adequately preparing us all for a long night of wonderful music. We got some photos of the set, as well as a couple of portraits with leader singer Kam Franklin and drummer Nick Zamora.

The Avey/Grouws Band performed at the Winter Blues Fest in Des Moines on February 10. The band is based out of the Quad Cities and Decorah, Iowa, and was winner of the 2017 Iowa Blues Challenge.
SXSW 2018 was absolutely insane. We only got to head down for a couple of days, but we packed in so much culture and new music discovery, our heads are still spinning. Below, peep a selection of “out and about” photos along the streets of Austin in March!
Damn near close to the crack of dawn on Monday, March 13th, we found ourselves on our way into downtown Austin. One member of our party was extremely jazzed about going to see John Cena speak at an official panel for SXSW. Unbeknownst to us, that hour of time would convert us into real fans of the Cena empire – something we cared little for previously. After all, big muscles and rough ‘n tumble WWE nights are not our main calling. But that panel opened our eyes to the type of conscientious, kind, and practical businessman he really, truly is. And we think we could all take a lesson or two out of his book. So here is the panel in its entirety, courtesy of SXSW.
