The alt-pop firestorm and Hopkinton native has sharpened her sound through a string of emphatic singles over the past several months, all leading to the release of new album Satellite in March. Now, Sands delivers “one eye open”, a searing new banger that further blurs the lines between pop and metal while providing a compass towards personal preservation — something we all need as we […]

Back in the seemingly long-ago spring, Mandy Lee and the boys teamed with another V fave in Charlotte Sands for banger new single “Other Side,” and it has us fired up for MisterWives’ Just For One Night! fall tour, which finally routes itself over to Citizens House of Blues in Boston tonight (October 30).

In some ways, 2023 flashed by in a blink of an eye, and in other way it dragged on seemingly for forever, as evidenced by the sinking feeling we get when we look at headlines from January and February. Perhaps the past 12 months will not go down as the greatest year ever for music overall, but it did deliver some pretty […]

Ain’t that a “pity”? The Nashville alt-pop artist and Massachusetts native unleashed a blitz of a new tune today (November 16), a swirling menace of mechanical mayhem that sets a noisy tone for her forthcoming debut album can we start over?, which hits in January. “‘Pity’ is a song about meeting ‘the perfect person’ and wishing you could be more like them,” says Sands. “It’s about the feeling of jealousy and comparing […]

But before and after a roughly 90-minute weather delay had festival goers seeking shelter from thunder and lightning, Boston Calling delivered what it does best — the art of performance, all spaced out and accessible over a nine-hour program. Saturday’s Day 2 was a wet and humid affair — and unfortunately the weather nixed sets from Ali McGuirk, Coral Moons, and Sudan Archives; with King Gizzard and the Lizard Wizard […]
