Keeping with the Orange Stage's mid-tempo morning, Keep Shelly in Athens was another early performer on Saturday at Fun Fun Fun Fest. Considering the indie-rock context, you might think "Athens" refers to the Georgia town that gave the world R.E.M.… Read more »

It's gotta be tough to program the early shows at festivals, and it's gotta be equally tough to play those spots. The music started around Noon on Saturday, Day 2 of Fun Fun Fun Fest, but the crowd was sparse. That's to be expected, of course; it's… Read more »

Yacht... And it's time for the kids to start dancing.... Sometimes a elcetronica hipster jam band works beautifully, and sometimes... it's alright. They're great at what they do, but the repetition in a non creative sense was a little much to get… Read more »
