Adam’s Plastic Pond at Fa5.
Bazz caught APP “throwing out shimmering, angular indie grooves” that make him forget about the week he just had. Doozy.

Fa5: Jesse’s Houze, Sally Rose and a Song.
Want another example of the interwoven, prolific, beautiful relationships between these bands and musicians runnin’ up and down this section of the Blue Ridge? Here you go.

TGIF! Dogwood Tales at Fa5.
Dogwood Tales tell stories in that authentic Blue Ridge way. Then they jam the story out in a shoe gaze, grab somebody willing and dance real close kinda way. It’s a unique Alt Country sound that’s all their own.

April Showers 4/12/25: St. Vincent Burns Ting to the Ground.
Annie and her band gave us something unforgettable, a show that was explosive, theatrical, and emotionally charged.
