February 5th, 2015 Dana Reandelar For a band that does not shy away from the “emo” tag, Runaway Brother‘s most recent single sure sounds pretty chipper. “Reprise,” a brand new track taken from their upcoming debut record called Mother, is an upbeat and pleasant take on an emotional ballad about love. You can take a listen below. Mother is scheduled […]

UTG INTERVIEW: Knuckle Puck At Skate And Surf
June 3rd, 2014 John Bazley While Skate and Surf was the biggest outdoor punk event of the year in New Jersey, some of the crowds at the side stages might have convinced you otherwise. The rise of pop-punk’s popularity over the past few years has shown the average concert-goer that pop-punk shows are best seen in small spaces like basements, […]

UTG TV: Bellwether Vocalist Stars In The World’s First Surrey Cart Interview
June 2nd, 2014 Derek Scancarelli At this year’s Skate and Surf Festival, we teamed up with our buddy over at Phlavor to bring you perhaps the most ridiculous interview that I’ve ever conducted. Ladies, gentlemen, children of all ages, I’m confident to say that this may be the first ever band interview to be conducted on a moving surrey. Yes, […]

UTG TV: Citizen Discuss Creative Control, Airplanes, and Egging Houses
May 30th, 2014 Derek Scancarelli Citizen guitarist Nick Hamm played in his high school marching band. “You realize that’s probably not going to go anywhere,” replied the Toledo band director when Hamm told him he’d be quitting to pursue his own band full-time. “Maybe this is enough for him. Maybe we’ll show him a little set from The Wonder Years […]

UTG TV: Front Porch Step On The Boardwalk At Skate And Surf
May 30th, 2014 Derek Scancarelli By some error, Front Porch Step was accidentally omitted from the Saturday line-up at Skate And Surf Festival. On the day of the show, the festival realized their mistake and told Front Porch Step mastermind Jake Mcelfresh that he’d be performing on one of the side stages as doors opened. As the festival-goers slowly worked their way […]

UTG INTERVIEW: Hidden In Plain View At Skate And Surf
May 29th, 2014 John Bazley While I was walking around Skate and Surf Festival in Asbury Park, New Jersey last weekend, I noticed how much older the crowd was than it had been in past years. The hotly-anticipated reunions of Midtown and Saosin with Anthony Green stole the show, but they weren’t the only reunions that drew in a nostalgic fan base. New […]

May 27th, 2014 John Bazley Last weekend, UTG TV made the trip to Skate And Surf Festival in Asbury Park, NJ. Due to small stages and an unconventional layout, it wasn’t always the easiest to find where artists were playing. That being said, we had no trouble finding Fucked Up. Vocalist Damian Abraham could be seen from the opposite side […]
