MUSIC VIDEO: St. Lucia – “Elevate”

One of my favorite singles this year has been “Elevate” by St. Lucia. It’s upbeat and complex, but really easy to sing along to. I’ve heard multiple versions of the song and each of them are equally as great as the others. Now we have some visuals to accompany the song. Noisey premiered the video […]

STREAM: St. Lucia – “Too Close”

X’s are filling up my calendar this September as I await St. Lucia‘s debut full length, coming October 8. I fell in love with the Brooklyn synth-pop group when I decided that 10 bucks a month for Rdio’s services was a pretty good deal. I synced a bunch of stuff I was recommended and some […]

STREAM: St. Lucia – “Elevate (Passion Pit Remix)”

I recently subscribed to Rdio’s monthly service and I’m absolutely loving it. It started with a long trip to Georgia last month and has since evolved into a new age of music discovery.

LIVE REVIEW: 80/35 Music Festival (Day 1)

Day 1 of 2015’s 80/35 is in the books. The weather was beautiful, the music sounded great, the crowd showed endless enthusiasm and feet soreness is at a manageable level.

UTG PHOTOS: Keep Calm And Chive On, Seattle (Chive Fest, 7/12/14)

Under the Gun sent photographer Xander Deccio to the Seattle Center in Seattle, WA on July 12 for Chive Fest. I’m going to be brutally honest: I had no clue what The Chive was, and when I heard from a colleague that they were having a music festival at the infamous Seattle Center, I had […]
