Riot Grrrls and the Womyn of Folk at Churchill’s All Folk’s Up night presents the music and work of womyn in the Miami folk community.
The untimely death of Soundgarden and Audioslave vocalist Chris Cornell shocked fans and the music community. Cornell was found dead of an apparent suicide inside his MGM Grand Hotel room in Detroit this past May 18, just hours after performing his final show. He was 52.
Earlier this month, two of the most successful Spanish-language crossover artists in pop music teamed up for a powerhouse tour. Ageless heartthrob Enrique Iglesias and Mr. Worldwide, AKA Pitbull, on their third go-round together since 2012, are once again selling out stadiums across North America with a double billing already…
Where were you last year when Hurricane Matthew rained on III Points’ parade? Were you prepping for a hurricane party? Gearing up for whatever was left of the fest? Well, LCD Soundsystem had to cancel its headlining set at Mana Wynwood because the storm stranded the band.
It has been 20 years since the tragic and untimely death of one of hip-hop’s figureheads, the Notorious B.I.G. If hip-hop had a Mount Rushmore, Biggie’s face would be one of the first carved into it. Reflecting on his influence on today’s hip-hop titans such as Jay Z, and the…
This week, American Airlines Arena will collapse with so much Miami-ness under one roof. That’s because Mr. Worldwide, AKA Mr. 305, Pitbull will share the stage with Spanish-born, Miami-raised singer Enrique Iglesias. Will the duo set off an implosion of neon and tropical heat? Probably.
And at the center of the spotlight is an EDC muse known as MsEasy
The pop singer will take her Melodrama World Tour to the American Airlines Arena next year.
If you’re driving west on 29th Street from North Miami Avenue, the street murals, galleries, and design shops of Wynwood abruptly give way to the body shops, warehouses, and pawn shops of Allapattah. There isn’t much difference between the two neighborhoods — both have rows of low buildings, long blocks,…
The Fillmore Miami Beach at the Jackie Gleason Theater might be demolished if city leaders get their way.
Where to even begin with Venezuela? The country is in turmoil, but on cable news it gets far fewer mentions than the U.S. president’s latest cluster tweets or 3 a.m. farts. Dog, cat, and pigeon carcasses are being found in the streets because Venezuelans are starving.
Despite its reputation as an international party capital, Miami could improve as a live music destination. We certainly attract our fair share of triple-A acts (many of whom end up performing at the AAA), such as Kanye West, Beyoncé, and Chance the Rapper. But because of the distance from the next major touring city…
Counter Corner has been a staple of Miami’s queer community for more than two years. The third Sunday of every month at the Corner, the party constantly spilled into the streets like beer from a tipsy reveler’s cup. That was reason enough for its organizers — Sleeper, Juleisy, and Karla — to think about expanding. Now the team has moved the event to the nearby venue 1306. And that’s not the only change.
In 2015, Mexican singer-songwriter Natalia Lafourcade’s sixth studio album, Hasta la Raiz, won five Latin Grammys, more than anyone else. Unlike some winners who let their trophies collect dust in a dark corner, Lafourcade proudly displays them.
The controversial performer is the sole Floridian on this year’s edition of the annual list, which features up-and-coming hip-hop talent.
In a 2016 YouTube video, Chris Stewart is a heavy-metal god performing in a small club. Playing bass in front of his own large shadow, the 41-year-old artist casually shapes the pinkie and pointer fingers on his fretboard-caressing left hand into the “rock on” horns familiarized by Dio and Sabbath…
Our annual Best of Miami issue is here, and you can find hundreds of choices for top places to do just about anything in South Florida. Just to whet your appetite, here’s a list of bars chosen by our staff. To see what readers chose and more than 300 other…
Add the band Jaialai as another name to know in Miami’s rock scene. The four-piece is set to release its debut EP, When I’m on the Run, June 14. It will include three songs that are chill enough to serve as background music but also groovy enough to be the centerpiece of a listening party.
Almost daily I encounter musicians who want a gig. Most are incredibly nice, but they still make some crucial mistakes. Because most of you musicians have the attention span of a cat, I am going to tell you what not to do.
As New Times has repeatedly emphasized in the past week, U2 continues to command public fascination. Miami proved as much last night, when a legion of fans took to Hard Rock Stadium to witness the Irish quartet reprise its celebrated fifth album, The Joshua Tree, in commemoration of the record’s 30th anniversary.
Will Miami weather fare better this week? Like so many things occurring in South Florida, that remains a mystery. However, acts are still pouring into the Magic City to perform at music venues and clubs. Chance the Rapper kicks things off Tuesday with his show at the American Airlines Arena…
