Let's face it; usually, here in Fort Lauderdale, we miss out on a lot of trends or we get them late. Think about about it-- trends like dining in the dark, dubstep (kidding) and Wes Anderson movies always arrive post facto. Fortunately, thanks to the folks at Brew Urban Café...
Natasha Khan, better known by her stage moniker Bat For Lashes, recently revealed a whole lot more than her new single "Laura." Bat those lashes, cause the UK singer and songwriter bared it all on the cover of her upcoming album, The Haunted Man. Well. Sporting a new short bob...
This year, we've been captivated by the Riverside Market saga, which has all of the makings of a good Disney movie. There's the greedy megabucks millionaire, the blundering city government, the affable main character who brings positive changes to a sleepy town, and the tight-knit locals who rally behind him...

Jason Joshua Hernandez Rodriguez is more than a man with four names. But for a while, the lead guitarist and vocalist for Miami-based seven-piece powerhouse Ketchy Shuby never felt that his band fit well into any one genre. A random encounter, though, ended up defining the act's sound. "This weird...
When experiencing something as phenomenal and unusual as Todd Rundgren's Musical Revival Camp, you learn a few things. After spending a spectacular late-July week at the Full Moon Resort in New York's lush Catskill Mountains, I also gained some perspective on life. The camp is all about fellowship, fun, and,...
As a Florida native, non-natives tend to whine open up to me about why they hate Florida, disdainfully referring to my beloved sunshine state as "the foot of the nation" (in which case New Jersey is clearly the armpit). They lament about nearly everything--the suffocating humidity, our lawless pill-pushing governor,...

Forget about the scandals, the accusations of child molestation, the dangling baby, the skin bleaching, the increasingly bizarre appearance, drug abuse, the pet monkey, all the tabloid trash talk, even the hyperbaric oxygen chamber.

Although he's easily the most visionary American artist to emerge from the heady Southern California sun and surf scene of the early '60s, Brian Wilson's reputation for genius has often been tempered by his battles with severe depression and mental instability. Born on June 20, 1942 (two days after Paul...
Thank God for alliteration. Yeah, in the wrong hands, it's like a badly executed pun, but it also results in the likes of Margarita Mondays and Tequila Thursdays.

The fate of the Gulfstream Hotel, the faded crown jewel of Lake Worth's historic downtown, appears at first glance to rest in the hands of the Schlesinger family of Palm Beach and Connecticut. The hoteliers/developers bought the property in 2005 but have fallen on hard times. The hotel is in...
For months, Lila Steinhoff wondered what was going on in the middle bay of the peach-colored warehouse across from her home. When the wind came out of the north or northeast, the pungent stench of nail-polish remover wafted from the small commercial site onto her quiet side street in West...
Adele, the most popular human looking songstress of the past decade (sorry, Gaga, but sometimes you resemble an anime heroine), is doing something really, really human. She's gestating offspring.
