Blues on 6th
HearsayContrary to popular opinion, I love the blues, I really do. James Hinkle, Holland K. Smith, Rocky Athas – they’re all awesome. Every one of ‘em works his ass off and serves up the blues the way it was intended...
Wall of Sound-Off
HearsayA proud Fort Worthian going on four years now, I can’t recall a local music event that’s inspired as much chatter as this past weekend’s Wall of Sound Festival, a two-day extravaganza at the Ridglea Theater th...
Modico, May, and Matt
HearsayFunny, but when some local musos have a show coming up or are about to release a new c.d., I’m their best friend, which, mind you, is not a problem, not in the least.

HearsayEvery once in a blue moon, someone tears HearSay away from the local music scene to see a show by a national act. I admit: I’m usually complicit in the escape.

HearsayOh, those wacky hipsters. While we were sleeping, a bona fide arts community has risen on the South Side, and it’s as ambitious as anything to ever emanate from Denton (a.k.a. Hipsterville).
Downtown! Things’ll Be Great When You’re …
HearsayLast week, on the day that Wreck Room owner Brian Forella signed the lease on a new spot, the downtown space formerly known as the Pig & Whistle, he got the news that the Wreck Room building had been sold.
Locke at the Lab, Monsters at the Dog
HearsayYou may know Tim Locke from such memorable bands as Blue Sky Black, the Grand Street Cryers, and Coma Rally. Yet other than by his aching, straight-to-the-heart voice and distinct sense of vocal melody, you probably wouldn̵...
Jack’s Off the Wall of Sound
HearsayThe lords of local music giveth, and the lords of local music taketh away. No sooner did Axis close its doors for good last month than another, equally swanky club opened.
Black Ties and Dogs
HearsayA couple of weeks ago, HearSay penned a heartfelt billet-doux to a new Black Tie Dynasty track on the band’s MySpace page (www.myspace.com/blacktiedynastycom).
Malcolm Ex
HearsayAll of the stellar bands in town work their asses off – gigging, rehearsing, promoting shows, writing new material, robbing banks to pay for studio time.
