North Miami’s Zillion Dolla Man says, “I’m the 1,008 gram boy, I’m really from the street. I’m really still doin’ it, just trying to make my music so I can leave it all behind. They requesting me all the time on 90.7; that’s an underground station. My first record I…
Next Wednesday, LIV is hosting the 10,000-LB Hamburger Tour featuring A-Trak, Rye Rye and Treasure Fingers. But before everyone shakes it to the ground at Dirty Hairy, we’ve been told that Rye Rye will be making an appearance at Just Add Water Sunday at Blade at the Fontainebleau. The party…
It’s the beginning of the month, and you’ve just been paid. Hopefully. Sounds like it’s time to spend some of that hard earned cash on live music, and Live Nation is letting you do that without any of the service fees. Better yet, they’re discounting four and six packs of…
Don’t spend this Fourth of July in a drunken (and perhaps drug-addled) haze. You’ve been doing that and sitting in the back of your friend’s hatchback going oooh and aaah to the fireworks for far too long. Why not try something different, with just as much wow factor. Like what?…
You might want to go ahead and grab your credit card now because this deal won’t last long. A while back, we announced the July 15 show featuring Gavin DeGraw and Collective Soul at Revolution Live. Now there’s even better news for those of you who haven’t picked up tickets…
And Then There Was YouAnd Then There Was You (Indianola Records)www.myspace.com/ATTWY Powerful, melody-driven three – and – a – half – minute ditties propel this album above and beyond the muck of what has sadly become of the post-punk/hardcore scene. The extremely adept rhythm section of Alex De Renzis (drums)…
Once upon a time, Jacki-O and Trina were the big contenders for the title of queen of the south. (Khia, perhaps, was a contender, but … last the public at large really heard from her, she was getting kicked off VH1’s Miss Rap Supreme). Then poor Jacki-O had a number…

The run of Fuerza Bruta at the Adriennne Arsht Center ends next month. It’s expensive as hell — $75 per ticket — but you shouldn’t miss it. Being in a dance club will never feel the same after you attend this show. Every time you have had a few drinks,…
Gloria Estefan recently recorded a colabo with Hank Williams Jr. for the football classic, “Are You Ready For Some Football”, which will open all three nationally televised games this year (two on ESPN and a Monday Nighter against the Jets on October 12). It should be fun to hear her…
Everyone grieves in different ways. Some like crying endlessly, while others just like to be left alone. But for everyone who wants to pay respect to the King of Pop, Michael Jackson, while having a bit of fun — which we’d like to think is how Michael would have wanted…

Wow. Do we like this new look for the Postmarks? They were always pretty low-key in the hair/make-up/costume department before, but their new makeover is sharp. They look like mod assassins! Actually, frontwoman Tim looks more than a bit like a brunette Francoise Hardy here. It’s appropriate, since the bandmates…
Awesome New Republic was celebrating its most extensive national tour to date — but that’s now most definitively in the past tense. The story goes that B. Rob, half of the band’s awesomeness, was on some vaguely western body of water, and bet that he could jump from one dock…
Michael FeinbergEvil Geniuswww.michaelfeinbergmusic.comTo the uninitiated, jazz generally falls into one of two broad categories — that which is readily accessible and that which isn’t. That’s an unsophisticated observation to be sure, but one with which many non-aficionados will likely concur. Count Chuck Mangione, Spyro Gyra and, yes, Kenny G among…
I guess the mini feud between DJ Laz and Crossfade is over. Apparently he didn’t like what we had to say about his single “She Can Get It,” and said as much on the air a while back. (But, hey, at least he reads Crossfade!) But that’s all in the…
