Or in my case, waiting patiently to see Reignwolf for a long while. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5b70a0fa2971146107fe08f2/1558221620409-AF6IGCONFYZVJG8RTB8G/Rosalia-concert-review-red-bull-music-festival.jpg Written Work - Rosalia Mystifies Webster Hall Beginning an already beautiful Monday, Red Bull Music Festival began its month-long musical celebration with wildly talented artists to bring their unique, boundary-pushing visions to the stage with their captivating performances. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5b70a0fa2971146107fe08f2/1563898330339-HFGGORJA058VLECJLTKI/IMG_3901.jpg Written Work - The Specials Take Over Brooklyn Steel The most wonderful part of a concert is when an audience is mixed with all sorts of people of all ages and cultures, this was our Friday night at Brooklyn Steel as we danced away the night with The Specials.

With a velvet curtain welcoming you at the door, there’s no telling what mischievous adventures you’ll get into. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5b70a0fa2971146107fe08f2/1539880745470-C6OH35V2XHAGBSW6XT2N/59c1d7211a00001400f07937.jpg Past Work - Surf Rock Is Dead Surf Rock Is Dead is the music crush worthy band that should most definitely be on your radar not only musically but to also catch live as they are energetic and gratifying to see. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5b70a0fa2971146107fe08f2/1545248421660-M2EESJ729EWAJJTIYE5C/The-Values-Brooklyn.jpg Past Work - The Values Capture Synth Pop The Brooklyn-based electro-pop duo band, The Values, help infuse synthesizers and beautiful vocals in their songs.

Walking into Rough Trade is reminiscent of Empire Records – known for its vast collection of vinyls and sweet staff. It’s pretty much a music lover’s paradise as there’s also a live music venue in the back. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5b70a0fa2971146107fe08f2/1553522878245-XZNRWXMSST0KZ6JEA790/brnixxemnqtgkusbbote.jpg Past Work - Combat Boots and Dive Bars I've always been asked what is it that I love about concerts and I can't come up with a single reason but a never-ending list of reasons. It's the way when your favorite song is being sung to you when you're at a live show, or the way it creates goosebumps and send shivers down your spin. It is the refreshing first sip of your beer or soda, and you can't help but smile — you forget life's little nuances. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5b70a0fa2971146107fe08f2/1539803449407-QQFXFDZ6BKLURODQAVWT/Washington-Heights-Ice-Cream-Truck-Paul-Lomax.jpg Past Work - MY MUSE IS… UPTOWN When I think about my first loves, Uptown always comes to mind; the music, the food, and the swagger that emanates from everyone. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5b70a0fa2971146107fe08f2/1564582468347-EIACILJDY4QBZ74IZXK0/13320341_1277818998914827_2537128773329546501_o.jpg Past Work - SONG PREMIERE: “WORDS” BY POLLENS As Jim Morrison once stated, “Where’s your will to be weird?” – being weird is something that’s appreciated now because you get to be who you really are. https://www.classickaren.com/new-gallery-1 daily 0.75 2021-08-25 https://www.classickaren.com/photography daily 0.75 2025-06-02 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5b70a0fa2971146107fe08f2/1577381916677-7SEKXTUOJ3SVQ1UOLPNA/IMG_0110.jpg Photography https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5b70a0fa2971146107fe08f2/1589915401124-O2T6M864PHJFM5R6PCEF/image-asset+%281%29.jpeg Photography https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5b70a0fa2971146107fe08f2/1601351692470-UJTVG2TK1WEZG9O80JZA/IMG_7903.jpeg Photography https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5b70a0fa2971146107fe08f2/1640404924826-WGI3RP3LL8L9UB8WTLRP/IMG_3573.jpg Photography https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5b70a0fa2971146107fe08f2/1577381028578-914MJT0J2HQ9E6TGGAYI/IMG_1041.JPG Photography https://www.classickaren.com/about daily 1.0 2025-06-02 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5b70a0fa2971146107fe08f2/ce917b93-6f8e-40ce-8001-39eb31fb7b2d/kodak_ultra_max_400_07_06_2024_000261290001.jpg About Adventures on Bowery.
