Still one of the highlights of my trip to Indianapolis for the Midwest Music Summit last year was the opportunity to see Pela live for the first time. The boys from New York played a blistering set and unlike many indie bands looking to make it, the had a certain polish to them already. […]

I returned to the scene of what was one of the most surprising and entertaining shows of 2006 last night as Joseph Arthur returned to the 20th Century Theatre for a performance. The crowd was a bit lighter than last time around, but last time was also a weekend affair. Arthur’s backing band […]
