Thinking about Dying and Learning How to Live: An Interview With Still Depths On Best plan for your life

May 28, 2023/ Kenna Clifford

I am back at a DIY venue and still getting used to it. It’s the first one I’ve been to since I was seventeen, and since then, new bands have emerged to play shows with ones I already know. Events shared via Instagram posters instead of Facebook pages have brought in a new crowd eager for live music. New venues like this one (Green Auto Body) have popped up, and old ones have been renamed. I am now much older than when I first experienced them, but in a way it’s nice to feel like I’m revisiting an old version of myself through the power of cheap PBR and second-hand smoke.

Universal Love 2 - A Harley Alexander Experience

November 30, 2022/ Tasheal Gill

There's something quite addicting about honesty. Some sort of unadulterated and absolute truth revealed through conversation, or music that feels like welcomed rain washing over you; an experience void of verbosity, a refreshing disruption in this manufactured world. Unto you, with honesty and tenderness, Harley Alexander wholeheartedly returns with his first project in two years to connect with love, above all else. He provides a remarkably honest expression of raw emotions through uniquely contrasting tracks on his album, Universal Love 2.

New Sounds, New Beginnings: A conversation with AC-PDF

August 30, 2022/ SAD Mag

You're sitting in a café–let’s say Liberty on Main. You dressed hot for someone to tell you tastefully, “You look cool.” You brought a book you intend to read but don’t. Instead, you're listening to the same old tunes you keep repeating until you physically can't listen to them anymore. You crave something new, nostalgic, yet totally original with members you can relate to. You scroll until you reach a band that captures your attention. A two-member duo that, like you, is going through some changes, a reinvention in their sound and lyrics. That band is AC-PDF.
