Another Record Store Day is in the books, and what a day it was.
The Old Rock House was glowing as Free Energy took the stage on Friday night. Really, truly glowing.
Even though Thursday night at the Firebird was a great lineup of musical acts, hometown heroes Bo and the Locomotive stole the spotlight.
The STL Loud 4 showcase took place at Pridefest 2012 in Tower Grove Park and hosted a flurry of amazing acts.
Bo and the Locomotive are standing beneath a neighbor's blossoming tree, playing a new song behind their Dogtown home.
Before Paste Magazine told the nation so, it wasn't presumptuous to say Bo and the Locomotive is one of the best reasons to get excited about St. Louis music.
Bo and the Locomotive started the night off at the Gramophone with a swinging, mostly instrumental tune. From song one, I realized that the tall, guitar-wielding Bo Bulawsky and his band aren't into rushing a melody.
Friday night of An Under Cover Weekend 5 at the Firebird was soulful, funky and most exceptionally hard-rocking.
The idea behind An Under Cover Weekend is simple: Local bands transform themselves into their favorite artists to pay tribute to them for 30 minutes. The result of months of hard work culminates in two nights of rock celebration at the Firebird that captures the essence of rock 'n' roll.
Bo and the Locomotive's swirling melodies project the warmth of genial summer daze. Discover the sound on the band's in-studio debut at KDHX.
