<p>Here is Massachusetts, we have Caspian. Over across the Atlantic, they have Far Caspian. The latter swirls up a cool frenzy today with “Arbitrary Task,” a whirling dervish slice of indie rock that serves as the latest ear-catching effort from Irish singer, multi-instrumentalist, and producer Joel Johnston. The lively track dropped yesterday (March 1), ahead of sold-out shows this month in New York (March 10 at Baby’s Alright in Brooklyn) and Los Angeles (March 18 and 19 at Moroccan Lounge), as […]</p>

<p>We’ve crafted tidal word waves over the explosion of musical creativity coming out of Ireland over the past few years, and that’s not solely limited to post-punk and guitar-rock. Alternative pop music is also gaining visibility on a global stage — our faves include Siobhán Winifred, Ocean Tisdale, modernlove., etc. — and the latest entry in providing color beyond the familiar green is KEHLI, the 21-year-old Dublin artist who continues her rise with the vivid “Lose U Now.” KEHLI has […]</p>

<p>Though this situation is about as likely to occur as the Cincinnati Reds making the World Series this year, if someone held a gun to my head and asked me my favorite legacyquel to emerge from the current crop of Hollywood’s output and demanded I’d be absolutely, truly honest with them or else, well, I’d probably say Ryan Coogler’s Creed.

The band announced this on Instagram in a statement that reads, ”Thank you to anyone who's ever come to see us perform, the artists who've inspired us, and everyone in the extended DD family. It’s time for us to move forward and continue our journeys separately. We wanted to say goodbye on a positive note. That's why we are self-releasing two new songs today. Recorded close to home in Toronto, they came about naturally over the last year or so. For anyone who's shown support in any way, from fans to friends to collaborators: We could not have accomplished what we did without each of you, and will be forever grateful. Xoxo The band has also released a pair of singles called “Colour of Joy” and “Morning Light” and will be playing their last show at Lee’s Palace in Toronto, Ontario on May 27 with Bad Waitress and Breeze.

Now, they’re plotting their return to the scene of the crime at The Wilbur. As announced earlier this week, the duo will be bringing their hit true crime program back to The Wilbur on November 4, as part of their annual run of live shows. It will […]</p>
