Independent Journalism in Phoenix Needs You
We need to raise $15,000 by August 9 to support the reporting our community depends on. Reader support keeps us independent and is playing a larger role in funding local journalism and shaping what comes next. If you believe independent local journalism matters, make a contribution today.
Get ready for our very own Coachella this weekend. Well — not really. As Christina Caldwell’s feature explains, Apache Lake Music Festival isn’t quite the same thing as that fest, but it does feature over 30 of Arizona’s best bands in a remote setting.
We’ve also got shorter features on Blitzen Trapper, focusing on the road ready Americana of the band’s excellent record American Goldwing, and an interview with Chico Mann of Antibalas Afrobeat Orchestra, who spends his solo time rocking an infectious blend of Afrobeat, Latin, and hip-hop sounds.
Check out short previews on Tech N9ne, Lindsey Buckingham, The Music of Lord of the Rings in Concert, Avenged Sevenfold, New Found Glory, and Red Light Disco.
