Mike Campbell & The Dirty Knobs still chasing the spark (opens the original)
Read excerpt
(Sept. 24, 2026) Mike Campbell likes it better when the music is close enough to touch. Heâs played the biggest stages a rock guitarist can stand on, but these days, with The Dirty Knobs, heâs more interested in rooms where the sound bounces back at him from the walls: small theaters, a few hundred people breathing the same air. âI love that environment because the music is in the walls, is close to you, and the audience is close to you,â Campbell said. âEverybodyâs sharing the same
Coming home to Young the Giant (opens the original)
Read excerpt
(Sept. 3, 2026) It is August 2011. I am newly 15 years old, about to begin my junior year of high school, watching MTVâs Video Music Awards because I love the spectacle and excess of award shows. Iâm keeping a close eye on the rock performances because rock music makes me feel alive, makes me feel like part of something and not alone. Another act is introduced to the stage.

Better Than Ezra plays the long game (opens the original)

(Sept. 3, 2026) There are worse problems for a rock band than writing a song everybody remembers, but longevity means learning how to live beyond it.

Read excerpt
(Aug. 27, 2026) There is an inherent balancing act in building a band around music that came long before you. If you play it too faithfully, you risk becoming just a cover band or a museum piece. Stray too far and you can lose the thing that drew you to it in the first place. For New York City-based Rae the Band, the answer lies somewhere in between: in the imperfect, ongoing process of taking the blues, soul, funk and rock music they love and figuring out what it sounds like when filtered throu
Another run on Corky Laing's Nantucket sleighride (opens the original)
Read excerpt
(Aug. 27, 2026) For Corky Laing, returning to Nantucket to play the music that has tied him to the island for more than half a century has become an annual tradition. But when the celebrated Mountain drummer takes the stage at the Dreamland for one night only this Friday, the focus will not be solely on Laing or the classic-rock catalog audiences have come to expect. This time, he wants to give the musicians around him some room of their own. âIâm kind of featuring each person separately at
