BJ Barham, lead singer and lyricist of the band American Aquarium, played a solo acoustic show at City Winery recently. He more than delivered on his promise to “continuously punch you in your feelings for the next 90 minutes,” entertaining the crowd with songs and stories for two hours.

Stage diving and bras flying were the themes of the night when the Big 4X Tour made its way to The Fillmore Silver Spring last week. With assistance from openers Blacc Zacc, Fat Dave, and DC’s own Money Marr, Stunna 4 Vegas had the crowd turned up from beginning to end.

The crowd wanted to blow off steam and listen to some fun music, and the boys of Time Sawyer obliged in their recent debut headlining show at Hill Country. Even playing a murder ballad, the band kept it light and made it a good time.

I’m way late to the party when it comes to The Mountain Goats but my excuse is that the musical road that brought me to John Darnielle and company was very long and winding. To say the least. It finally took me to 9:30 Club to see the band recently.

Sometimes, it’s easy to become disenchanted with the industry of music, its lab-grown, polished and cut stones. Have you ever taken a melon-sized rock and thrown it to the ground, its hidden crystals shining on the pavement? Like a little cave of beauty, for a moment, a second in time.
