In this week’s print edition New Times writer Chris Hansen Orf — himself a member of a veteran Tempe Americana act — catches up with hard-nosed roots rockers Flathead. The band talks about how they’ve been able to fit on bills with everyone from Meat Puppets to Ralph Stanley, X and The Cramps.
Mike Escoto talked with local boy Chester Bennington, lead singer of Linkin Park, about his band’s new record, which should challenge the longtime fans.
George Jones made his triumphant return to relevancy 30 years ago, as Brian Bardwell points out. Here’s hoping he’s not a No Show tonight.
We’ve also got short previews on Young The Giant, MartyParty, Canibus, Rocky Votolato, Telekinesis, and Streetlight Manifesto.
Will you step up to support New Times this year?
At New Times, we’re small and scrappy — and we make the most of every dollar from our supporters. Right now, we’re $17,250 away from reaching our December 31 goal of $30,000. If you’ve ever learned something new, stayed informed, or felt more connected because of New Times, now’s the time to give back.
