Tailspin and Weval were the perfect combo for a summer night show, with Meow Wolf embodying the visuals for the music created from these artists. Tailspin opened the show on Tuesday night as the flow of fans came in after grabbing drinks just outside the door. The hypnotic dance beats and the ever-changing interactive floor patterns made for loosening up anyone standing still. Phones were soon out to capture anyone who was dancing along to the patterns on the ground to fill the empty spaces on the dance floor. When the beat would drop, you’d see people jumping onto a…

Whibley’s time through his recoveries were filled with writing material that has been used for the group’s sixth full-length album, 13 Voices, and this tour is their triumphant return! 

Pierce The Veil brought the Made to Destroy Tour to the Atlanta Tabernacle concert hall on October 7 with an estimated over 1,000 devoted fans in attendance.

On Wednesday, July 29th, I attended and photographed the Shot Boys of Summer tour at the Masquerade Atlanta, with the headlining band of State Champs. The lineup also included Hit the Lights, Tiny Moving Parts, Let It Happen, and Northbound.  Each band provided energy for the full venue that lit up the stage the entire night. Be sure to check out Northbound; I had never heard their live set before and it was absolutely amazing. What started out as an acoustic solo project with lead singer, Jonothan Fraser, has blossomed into an easycore pop-punk group.
