  1. SXSW Day 4: Rhye, MO, Mikal Cronin, Parquet Courts

    AUSTIN, Texas -- Can't think of anything better than a cappella gospel music in the morning, especially when it's sung with the grit and flair of the Relatives. On Friday at the South by Southwest Music Conference, it was a rollercoaster ride across...

  2. Metz: Toronto trio is all out, all the time

    A few weeks ago, the Toronto trio Metz was played a midafternoon gig at the South by Southwest Music Conference in Austin, Texas, with such fury that the welt-inducing performance left me questioning the band members’ physical well-being and sanity. Alex Edkins was wrestling his guitar to the ground like it was a writhing alligator. Chris Slorach was pogoing while screwing his bass guitar into an amplifier. Drummer Hayden Menzies was pounding so hard it sounded like he was banging on industrial oil drums instead of a trap kit. They carried on like this for 10-plus minutes as they torched a song called “Wet Blanket.” How the heck do they play this passionately every night while on tour?

  4. 'Bitter Buddha': Spotlight's a bit brighter on pair's return

    The last time I spoke with comedian Eddie Pepitone was June, just prior to the world premiere of his movie <a href="http://articles.chicagotribune.com/2012-06-14/entertainment/ct-mov-0615-chicago-closeup-20120615_1_bitter-buddha-lincoln-lodge-comedian">"The Bitter Buddha" in Chicago</a>, where it screened during the Just For Laughs festival. Nine months and several tour stops later, he and director Steven Feinartz (a Buffalo Grove native) return to town this weekend on a triumphant wave of social media fervor. Both will be at the Music Box Theatre on Friday, with Pepitone performing a set Saturday at the Lincoln Lodge.

  5. SXSW 2013 keynote: Dave Grohl and the importance of 'voice'

    AUSTIN, Texas -- Dave Grohl, looking more professorial than usual (it must have been the dark-rimmed glasses he donned for the occasion), might have a future scripting reality shows if this music thing doesn't work out.

  6. SXSW 2013: Clive Davis and how the talent scout who knew 'nothing' got famous

    AUSTIN, Texas -- Clive Davis is always selling something, it seems. At the South by Southwest Music Conference on Thursday, it was his autobiography that was being flogged, and as he sat to talk about it with Billboard journalist Bill Werde, he...

  7. SXSW 2013 Day 2: Sohn, No Ceremony///, Flume

    AUSTIN, Texas -- Sohn kept shooting glances at the door swinging open to his left, where the punk band next door could be heard loud and clear. The London/Vienna soul singer-songwriter had good reason to be miffed, as his music rewards close attention to its slow-build dynamics.

    AUSTIN, Texas -- Guards, a co-ed quintet, capped Tuesday's opening night of the South by Southwest Music Conference, and wiped away the mediocre aftertaste left by their predecessors.

  9. SXSW 2013: Nick Cave talks about 'painful births' in songwriting

    AUSTIN, Texas -- Nick Cave has written novels, movie scripts and a few dozen of the greatest songs of the last 30 years. Yet for him, it never gets any easier.

    The City of Chicago has for the first time in its history an office charged with serving the needs of the local music community. Now begins director Dylan Rice&rsquo;s first major hurdle: alerting people that it exists.

  11. Second City vets making it behind scenes

    Second City has been smart enough over the years to let its impressive roster of alumni speak for itself. Old photos of recognizable faces may line the lobby, but you'll never see one of the theater's shows advertised under a banner touting, "From the producers who brought you Bill Murray and Tina Fey before they were famous."

    For Orlando singer Michelle Beebs, the day that would open the door to her band's stint on the 2013 Vans Warped Tour didn't unfold the way she had hoped. "It was insane, to be honest with you," said Beebs, the lead singer of popular Orlando band Beebs &...
