For those of you who were at Castaways last night, you saw the five-man storm that is the Felice Brothers. Regardless of what you thought about their performance (I personally thought: too long, and not loud enough, by a long shot), they’re 100% committed to what they do. In case you missed the show — […]

To continue their string of good Saturday night shows, the Chapter House will host local quartet Evil City String Band tomorrow night at 10pm. A li’l about their music:

Did you know that Ted Leo is playing at next week’s Slope Day? We didn’t know until a few weeks ago, so it’s nice to find out that there’s someone worth traveling to the Slope for this year. You know, besides Hot Hot Heat and Gym Class Heroes.

Shown above is a detail of ‘Republic’ by Graham MacDougal. Below is complete information for the opening reception tomorrow. Visit the Ithaca Times to read Wylie Schwartz’s complete review […]

Even more importantly, it’s a benefit […]

Hey Ithaca peeps,

Friday night, I will be hosting and performing at the semester’s last “Cat and Mouth,” at Risley Hall, in Tammany Night Club. The show is free, starts at 9pm, and milkshakes will be served.  This week’s guest is Sparlha Swa, an amazing soul/acoustic singer/songwriter from NYC.

Hope to see you!
Adam

Whoa, guess I’m glad this didn’t go down at the Ithaca show this past Saturday (which was awesome, by the way). [Via Idolator]
In related Ithaca news, I can’t believe we caught Neko on this tour the DAY BEFORE she broke her ankle in D.C.! Hope we aren’t bad luck, but also stoked to have seen […]
