Chalk this one up to a case of celebrity cash-in: It looks like Aerosmith drummer Joey Kramer has an iPhone app now. And this probably isn’t going to come as any surprise, but it it absolutely blows. The ap, Joey Kramer: Hit Hard, only held our attention for about three…
Spoon • Deerhunter • Michachu and the Shapes 04.6.10 | Ogden Theatre There are so many people crammed into the Ogden that it’s difficult to see the stage. The guy in front of me is rubbing against me so often I’m wondering if his girlfriend is going to get jealous…

Taking a page from the playbook of bands like the Czar’s and Cracker, the Heyday is appealing to the fans to finance its next record. Rather than relying on a corporate sugar daddy, they group has launched a fund raising campaign calledAlong for the Ride. So far, says bassist Peter…
Tegan and Sara • Steel Train • Holly Miranda 04.4.10 | Ogden Theatre There is some dumb joke to be had about a band playing on Easter in support of an album called Sainthood, but let’s not take the easy way out here. Because Tegan and Sara is fifteen years…
Okay, whoever speculated that Dave Matthews Band and the Samples were going to be a part of this year’s Mile High Music Festival: Sorry we doubted you. You were right, evidently. So was the guy who said Jack Johnson, as well as the person who pointed us in the direction…

Well, can you? Look closely. No, more closely. Who do you think it could be? Which well known local music personality do you think posed for this album cover at the behest of his father, who just happened to work in the marketing department of Del Monte at the time…
Here’s what we know about Nicholi White: He’s fourteen-years-old. His birthday is January 26. He’s a middle schooler that lives in Harlem, New York. He’s a self-described entertainer, which means he performs and acts. And, most importantly, he’s just this side of AWESOME! Anyone who films himself shamelessly groovin’ to…
