Devalued is one of the newer, younger, and hardest-playing musical acts performing in South Florida. You probably saw Nico Suave singing and playing guitar, Matt Stoyka beating the shit out of the drums, and Conor Barbato breaking his bass at the County Grind showcase at Green Room in July. Fun to…
Better than: Most everythingMatty’s on the Drive, a Wilton Manors staple, celebrated its fourth anniversary with chatter about acceptance, drag queens hanging around in street clothes, gays in baseball caps, and genuinely excited Lady Miss Kier superfans. The former Deee-Lite frontwoman brought a butt-ton of attitude, following up Saturday’s DJ…
Isaac is “barreling” toward South Florida. It’s “hugging” the Cuban coast, and “raged” over Haiti today. But this tropical storm is not gonna fuck things up for the Repubs. That show will go on (UPDATE: the show will be delayed to Tuesday). But what, you ask, is going to happen…
Roller derbies became part of middle America’s idea of what tough girls do after school when Whip It hit theaters. All the wimpy chicks out there (us included) looked longingly at these athletic, angry females, powerfully involved in a contact sport for just us ladies. Palm Beach’s Dub City Derby Girls are…

If you’ve never seen George Clinton and his musical collective Parliament-Funkadelic perform live, then, friend, sorry to say, but you have never had the funk. This funk is nothing like the stale armpit kinda funk. This funk has soul, scope, and depth. This funk will make you dance till your…
Kate Pierson was on her second cup of coffee in her Woodstock, New York, home when we called her to chat. The redheaded singer of the B-52’s is way more than a big voice, bouffant, and bellbottoms, she also owns, runs, and decorates two hotels with her partner Monica. Lazy Meadow is located…

While most Vegas Elvises just look like Elvis, Big Elvis sings like the King. Pete Vallee, or Big Elvis, is a larger than life Sin City staple. He performs a tribute show four days a week at Harrah’s Piano Bar, and will be touring the country this fall. According to…

Great big Hawaiian dudes have the monopoly on ukuleles no more. These days, the funny lil’ stringed instrument has been usurped by a subdivision of the “hipster” community. This branch has thick bangs and long, flowing hair that falls prettily as they play. Their soft feminine voices caress the jingling notes…
When you read the words Stop, Collaborate, and Dance, what crosses your mind? A local dance non-profit intent on working with others on a community initiative to help inner-city youth lose weight, right? Not this time, friends. It’s hometown hero and super famous white rapper-gone-hardcore-gone-ICP Vanilla Ice’s new thang. He’s…
Dirty Projectors with Pop EtcCulture Room, Fort LauderdaleAugust 7Better than: Marshmallows that fall in the fire. When New Times interviewed Dirty Projectors’ Amber Coffman and Pop Etc’s Chris Chu prior to their show last night at Culture Room, it was revealed that both have long enjoyed the music of pop diva…
There’s something genuinely unique about Chan Marshall. We all know the singer and songwriter by her playful stage name, Cat Power. But this siren isn’t only a great beauty with a soulful voice; she’s a sort of elusive figure who, at the same time, is very accessible. She has a…
You may remember Pop Etc’s music when they were working under a different name. The group changed a lot of things about themselves recently. One thing was their title from the Morning Benders, which apparently had homophobic connotations in the UK. They just released their eponymous debut under their new…
Drake debuted his oddly conceived and highly anticipated “duet” with late singer Aaliyah at Tronoto’s OVO Festival on Sunday. We are a little horrified that the rapper, who never knew or worked with the siren, used her voice to create his own track. The song, “Enough Said,” we think, was…
The guys of Zoogma take electronic music and make it live. We spoke with bassist and keyboardist Ryan Nall last fall about the Nashville-Atlanta-based band literally giving away their music for free. They just released a new album, Wet Hot American Mixtape, and the quartet will be performing at Culture…
We were sitting over here at New Times hitting the bong hard, listening to “Maggie May,” and our minds wandered to thoughts of Rod Stewart. High on life and THC, we got lost in this moment of nostalgia for a more youthful, sexually alluring Rod, and suddenly, inspiration struck. Though…
