Richard Marx Wherever you go, whatever you do, Richard Marx will be right here waiting for you. Well, technically you were the one who had to wait for him to make up this show originally scheduled for last November, but let’s not get into semantics. He may no longer sport his luxurious ’80s mullet, but the adult pop singer-songwriter can still send audiences into a tizzy as he emotively croons his way through hits like “Right Here Waiting” and “Endless Summer Nights.” (I do sincerely hope that his superfans call themselves Marxists.)

Wednesday, Cryogeyser Karly Hartzman doesn’t sugarcoat her Southern indie rock poetry. This singer for the North Carolinian band Wednesday weaves tales of stress, grief, the perils of partying too hard and the other gritty dark scars of small-town life on the new album Rat Saw God. Her delivery varies from delicate tenderness boosted by Americana instrumental touches to ramshackle over woozy, Sonic Youth-esque off-kilter ’90s indie guitar noise. NME has already called Rat Saw God “one of the year’s defining rock albums,” and Pitchfork bestowed it with the coveted ...

Mannequin Pussy, Margaritas Podridas Rarely is a band’s evolving sound captured accurately on an album cover, but such is the case with the art for Mannequin Pussy’s 2021 EP, Perfect.

Shinedown, Three Days Grace, From Ashes to New Answer instinctively without thinking about it — what band completely dominates mainstream rock? While names like Foo Fighters, Imagine Dragons and Red Hot Chili Peppers might spring to mind, there’s a statistical case to be made that the correct answer is Shinedown. The Floridian hard rock outfit has the most No. 1 singles in the 40+ year history of the Billboard Mainstream Rock Songs Charts (18!) and the band’s first 30 singles (and counting) have all cracked the Top 5. The group’s blend of an aggressive but accessible le...

The Walleye: 'Songs for a Ghost' Album Release Show Spokane folk group the Walleye don’t pop up that often, but the band’s rare appearances are a chance to take in some quality local folk tunes. As the group displayed in last year’s Inland Sessions performance for KSPS, frontman Ben Menard crafts slow-burning storytelling songs with rich Hammond organ support from Auston Ulmer and a slight hint of country flavor. Grab a whisky for sipping at the Lucky You bar and catch the Walleye when the band celebrates the release of its new album, Songs for a Ghost.
