From drab to fab, my evening was transformed faster than you can say Deseo Un Brillo… Speaking of…Celebrating the release of their newest and first EP titled Deseo Un Brillo, Alma Muñeca delivered an insatiable performance Saturday night at Elysium, Austin’s premiere Goth/Alternative […]
Sofia Slack Music Reviewer AUSTIN, Texas – Red and yellow lights pulsed through the thick fog as the crowd pushed toward the barricade, sweaty and restless. The hum of anticipation was electric. When the first distorted chord rang out, the floor shook, and the venue collectively lost its mind.

Marissa Quiroga Music Journalist Far from being just a Tik Tok Artist, Doja Cat has secured her place as the top leading voice in pop. Proving herself once again, we should take her seriously. Although at times, artists run the risk of changing their identity, Doja Cat refuses to define herself. What truly sets her apart is the constant reinvention of each album. Whether it's her debut album Hot Pink or […]
By: Jonathan Marin Music Journalist A band or an artist taking the scene by storm is commonality. For a rock band to do such a thing is commonality. Geese’s breakout record, “3D Country,” was a landmark in the indie rock scene, being one of the most talked-about records of 2023.
