Stage Buzz: Author & Punisher, Brandi Carlisle, Beauty School Dropout
Beauty School Dropout. (Natasha Austrich)
Critically acclaimed singer/songwriter Brandi Carlisle is more than a musician. She’s an author, an activist, and one of music’s most respected voices. Her engaging storytelling and confessional lyrics resonate with critics and fans alike. Carlisle celebrates her latest album, Returning to Myself, with a headline show at Allstate Arena with special guests The Head and The Heart. It all goes down on Friday, February 20. You can still get tickets here.
Tristan Shone, the creative force behind Author & Punisher, is a one-man industrial machine. Watching Shone create his hard-hitting, gritty, and brutal soundscapes on stage, using his impressive contraptions that blur the line between man and machine, is impressive. See the spectacle for yourself when Author & Punisher performs at Reggie’s this Saturday, February 21st. Tickets available here.
Rising LA rock band Beauty School Dropout impressed Fall Out Boy’s Pete Wentz and blink-182’s Mark Hoppus with their vibrant, catchy sound so much that they immediately signed them to their new label. Now, the band comes to Chicago for a headline show supporting their debut album, WHERE DID ALL THE BUTTERFLIES GO? If you want to see what the buzz is about, check out their set at Subterranean with Nightbreakers this Sunday, February 22nd. Get tickets here.
