Save room for these awesome artists.

Tame Impala, the project led by Aussie musician Kevin Parker, hasn’t released an album since 2015’s “Currents,” yet the band remains a favorite, especially among music festival-goers. Leaning heavily into its psych-rock sound, Tame Impala has effectively become the Pink Floyd for the millennial set. The band’s devout following is so massive…

December 31, 1996, was a typically cold New Year’s Eve in Times Square. My friends and I were trapped in that glittery and dismal landscape while waiting for the ball to drop. As a teenager from Miami, I was dressed incredibly inappropriately in thin pants, slip-ons, and a borrowed coat…

The International Noise Conference (INC) has become a monumental staple in Miami. The annual fest, which boasts acts from all over the globe doing exactly the opposite of what most people might expect from a live show, draws motley crowds from every corner of South Florida to Churchill’s Pub in Little Haiti…

Lucinda Williams is a Grammy-winning rock, folk, blues, and country singer-songwriter who’s been making music for the better part of four decades. Her breakthrough album, “Car Wheels on a Gravel Road,” was released in 1998 when she was 45 years old and just passed its 20th anniversary…

If you’ve attended III Points since year one, you know how integral LCD Soundsystem’s James Murphy has been to the festival’s success. He DJ’ed the first year when the festival’s fate was still very uncertain. Of course, there was also the time Murphy was supposed to perform as LCD Soundsystem in 2016 but was forced to cancel the band’s appearance after a near-scare from Hurricane Matthew.

“There’s enough festivals in the world showcasing bands already well known and successful. We wanted to create a space where people who really love music can come hear new sounds and take those sounds home with them to expand their listening horizons,” Snarky Puppy bassist Michael League says of his original intentions for GroundUp Music Festival. “I wanted this to be a festival that only booked artists that aren’t just wonderful, but wonderful live.”

Last year, the two revisited their musical partnership and released a new EP, Apart, a high-production affair that puts Johansson and Yorn’s fun chemistry on full display.

Gladys Knight, Matisyahu, Cheap Trick, and more of the best concerts in Miami this week, January 21 through 27.

Miami has an electronic music festival in Ultra, a hip-hop festival in Rolling Loud, and an everything-in-between festival in III Points. But the region’s most popular genre of music — Latin — has remained underserved. That is until now. Fuego Music Festival was just announced. It’s billed as “the first East Coast two-day Latin music festival.”

What composes life in Wynwood? Art. Food. Fashion. Drinks. And music. So why don’t we have an annual festival that celebrates all these wonderful things and call it the Wynwood Life Festival? Perfecto! The Wynwood Life Festival is back for a seventh year, kicking off the afternoon of Friday,…

The band’s heaviest moments deliver absolutely pulverizing, end-of-all-things metal riffage. It’s just that the contrast between the light and dark turns is starker than ever before.

Cher, Redman, Chew, and more of the best concerts in Miami this week, January 14 through 20.

Country music is steeped in female voices, from Patsy Cline to Reba McEntire, Shania Twain, and Faith Hill. But not since the Dixie Chicks burst onto the scene in 1998 has an all-female trio experienced such widespread success. “It really happened organically for us, and the timing was just right,” Runaway June lead…

New Order has a bit of a crush on Miami, and based on the response at last night’s sold-out show at the Fillmore, the feeling is mutual. The influential British New Wave group responsible for enduring dance-rock masterpieces such as “Blue Monday” and “Bizarre Love Triangle” announced a Miami stop on the heels of a rescheduled Chile tour date in early December. Within days of going on sale, tickets to the January 12 show had sold out.
