Local bands and musicians of a Celtic bent have plenty of reasons for their Irish eyes to be smiling right now, as this weekend is pretty much the biggest of the entire calendar year. St. Pat’s lands on a Sunday this year, which means three straight days of partying and…
Editor’s Note: It’s not every day that a band capable of filling arenas headlines a gig at the (comparatively) intimate Marquee Theatre. But that’s exactly what’s going down tonight, when the Bieber-bashing, ¡Uno-¡Dos!-¡Tre! -releasing Green Day heads to Tempe for a sold-out show. Critical consensus can be pretty mixed when…

First, a “dumb drummer” joke: How do you get a drummer off of your porch? Pay him 10 bucks for the pizza. Now, our Top Five Must-See Shows in Phoenix This Week…
When people ask what kind of music I like, I’m tempted to say, “Good music.” I understand the need for musical terminology, but there’s really too much good stuff to limit what you listen to. It’s a lesson Zero Zero teaches well. Nicole Laurenne and Michael Johnny Walker have the…

HIDDEN HOUSE When Al Page kicks out a classic jam like the Ohio Players’ “Everybody Up” inside the Hidden House’s cozy lounge on Saturday nights, it’s impossible not to heed the ’70s superstars’ advice to “get with it” out on the dance floor. Can’t drop slick moves like James Brown?…
