Silver Medallion, Yuck, Pete Yorn and More in This Week’s Issue

In this week’s music feature newly-promoted Assistant Night and Day Editor Benjamin Leatherman talks with Oren J of Silver Medallion about the group’s just-released album No One Ever Really Dies, which Oren finished after the tragic death of his partner Carnegie last fall. The Silver Medallion story is a touching one, simultaneously sad and uplifting. You don’t want to miss this article.
Also in the paper this week, Michael Lopez talks about Yuck‘s climb to buzzdom and Michael Escoto gets Pete Yorn to offer up his own micro-reviews of well-known love songs in advance of his Valentine’s Day gig at Marquee Theatre in Tempe.
We’ve also got short previews of concerts by Plain White T’s, Scott H. Biram, Sarah McLachlan, and John Michael Montgomery.
