In the mood for an industrial and post-apocalyptic soundtrack this weekend? With the presidential election just a few weeks away, it seems appropriate. Well, channel all that gloom and doom into some positive vibes this weekend at the Electric Pickle and come see Broken English Club live tonight.  Broken English…

First of all, it’s time to celebrate that Hurricane Matthew decided to spare Miami its worst. Second, let’s give thanks that III Points is still up and running. Although it’s a bummer that LCD Soundsystem and Oneohtrix Point Never will not be performing tonight due to hurricane-related travel issues, there are many…

Instead of just one free concert, this weekend, we recommend an entire day of debauchery to celebrate Lost Weekend’s 20th anniversary. Over 15 bands, a bunch of DJs, burlesque dancers, drag queens, comedians, magicians, and more surprises are in store at the free event that will be held on the…

Have you heard the good news? Wynwood has been declared Zika free three days ago by Florida Governor Rick Scott, so now you really have no excuse to come on down to Miami’s art district. And in case you need more motivation — beside the money you’ll save on bug spray —…

Days before Merchandise’s debut performance at Gramps, and weeks before the release of the band’s new album, A Corpse Wired for Sound, we got the chance to talk to lead singer Carson Cox about the state of his buzz-worthy little Florida band.  Merchandise, originally from Tampa, has been touring the…

The words “Design District” and “free” go together about as often as “Kanye West” and “humble.” It’s not exactly an area of Miami known for its live music, either.  So, you can imagine our surprise when we found out about this weekend’s upcoming Day Into Night celebration happening in Miami’s swankiest district…

As we mentioned on Monday, the range of music happening this weekend in Miami is, to say the least, overwhelming. It’s a good week to be a music fan in the 305. But it’s a really good week to be a rock fan in Miami. That’s because Miami’s historic Little Haiti punk…

If you feel like deviating from the usual suspects in Wynwood or Downtown this weekend, Sidebar is your best bet for some (free) live music. The bar’s weekly Cherry Pop Saturdays with resident DJ Rob Riggs will offer a glimpse at one of Miami’s newest bands.  Cloud Solo, a fresh…

The Degeneration party series is back this Saturday, August 20, at the bar at 1306, and this time it comes with a pretty sweet deal. Local promoters Stephany Torres and Lauren Palma are saying goodbye to the very cruel and sticky Miami summer with a series of dance parties bumping everything…

There aren’t many Miami bands that reach the decade mark. Luckily for all of us, Modernage is one of them. The rock outlet formed by guitarist Xavier Vazquez, guitarist/keyboardist Garcia Freundt, bassist Izzy Silva, and drummer Alex de Renzis have been composing tracks together since 2005. Many locals over the…

This weekend, fight the Zika paranoia in Wynwood and head to the Electric Pickle to see the Brooklyn-based No Regular Play live this Saturday. Unless, well, you’re pregnant or trying to get pregnant. If that’s the case, sorry, but Wynwood for you. But for the rest of us non-fertile, healthy folks,…

Psychedelic rock is the perfect soundtrack for your hot Miami summer night, with its enchanting melodies blending in with your own heat-induced hallucinations. And this Saturday you will have the chance to enjoy not only one but three South Florida psych and garage bands at Bougainvillea’s Old Florida Tavern (more commonly…

Drinking, dancing, and roller skating? Sure, it’s maybe not the safest idea, but a lineup like this is worth a few bruises. Miami has always had a passion for strapping on the skates and many natives have colorful memories of nights of debauchery and roller disco. And this Saturday, all…

Let’s face it, although we love to complain about the sticky Miami summer there’s one thing that helps us overcome the pain: pool parties. And alcohol. Fine, two things.   And if you haven’t experienced the Confidante’s weekly pool party, Frankie Says, then now is you chance. Hosted by Wynwood’s Electric…

Sunday might be the most important day of the weekend. How you spend it will set the tone for the rest of your week. And what better way to use your last day of freedom than enjoying some live music in the heart of Little Havana at Ball & Chain’s new…

Miami Swim Week is here, and if you’d like to grab some quick cardio somewhere slightly more exciting than LA Fitness, you can head to the intimate South Beach club, Rec Room, this Saturday. Up-and-coming Fool’s Gold artist Speakerfoxxx (and one half of Bosco and Speakerfoxxx) will be playing a…

Close your eyes and imagine a Miami Vice remake, but instead of Don Johnson, a young Giorgio Moroder wears the neon suit. He walks into a bar in Wynwood and orders a drink with a little yellow umbrella. He sees a curvy blonde eying him as a band tears it up in…

This year, one of Miami’s best (and most free) 4th of July celebrations comes a day earlier. This Saturday, you will be able to enjoy some good ol’ barbecue and local beer from Concrete Beach, all smothered in the rich musical sauce of Zach Deputy. Hailing from Savannah, Georgia, Zach…

It’s been a long week. And if you just don’t have it in you tonight to Uber over to LIV, we’ve got a significantly more laidback (and free) option. This week, the monthly series Jazz at the Museum of Contemporary Art (MOCA) in North Miami presents Lanzallamas Monofonica, a Miami-based…

Looking for a good dose of local music, art, and free booze? This is your lucky day! On Saturday starting at 9 p.m., downtown’s 1306 will host the first edition of Something Tropical, an event featuring live bands, DJs, art installations, and an open bar on select drinks. The night,…
