unplugged

History making band The Pretty Reckless (earlier this month, they became the first female-fronted band to score back to back #1 singles - "Heaven Knows" and "Messed Up World") have announced that they are working on an acoustic album. No release date is available yet, but in a recent interview, frontwoman Taylor Momsen says they have recorded an acoustic medley already - with p

Alice In Chains are back from Europe, and ready to hit the stage in a tour that kicks off in Western Canada. Before they get back into live action though, they will be the featured guests on DIRECTV's Guitar Center Sessions on Sunday night (August 3rd)...

In case you were wondering where they went, The Pretty Reckless are frolicking in the English countryside for a bit before they come back to the States for a big Fall tour with Adelita's Way. They postponed the frolicking today (6/12) for an appearance on BBC's Radio One Live Lounge, and busted out acoustic versions of "Messed Up World" from their 'Going To Hell' album, and, with help fr

Kyle Nicolaides is no stranger to performing solo. He's been performing since he was in high school, sometimes with a band...sometimes on his own. Either way, he quickly made a name for himself as the little guy with the big voice and the dizzying guitar chops, a curious mix of humble banter and sonic swagger...

Fort Worth natives, and Shreveport favorites, The Toadies, are celebrating the 20th anniversary of their first album "Rubberneck" this year. In honor of the event, Vaden Todd Lewis and the band will be re-issuing "Rubberneck" - on disc, with 5 bonus tracks, and on vinyl...

The Pretty Reckless are making their way across the country in support of their new album "Going to Hell", eventually ending up at Municipal Auditorium on May 10th for our 20th Birthday Bash. This morning (4/17), they stopped by VH1's 'Big Morning Buzz Live' to chat and play a couple of acoustic songs: The Pretty Reckless - Heaven Knows (Big Morning Buzz Live) - The Pretty Reckless Music

Eve to Adam stopped by Shreveport to play a cool little acoustic set right in the heart of the Red River district. We were on hand, along with our loyal listeners, to partake of the forbidden fruit.

If you were fortunate enough to see Beware of Darkness (all eight of you) when they played the Warehouse last year, you know how amazing this band is live! I was lucky enough to draw the straw, and had the opportunity to host them in the 99X studio for an interview and a short acoustic set. This time, the band played a markedly different venue: a trolley car in San Diego.

When you're perusing the new music at your favorite music store (brick and mortar or online) tomorrow, look under "S". Not for Shinedown, but for "Smith and Myers" - Shinedown vocalist Brent Smith and guitarist Zach Myers new acoustic project...

On tour now in support of their upcoming album "Going to Hell", The Pretty Reckless stopped by Alter the Press to perform an acoustic version of their new single, the title track of "Going to Hell."

The live stream has ended. Look for video and photos of Surrender the Fall's unplugged performance later today on this website.

Still in recovery mode from X Fest 2012...and in a Halestorm kinda mood.  But my head still hurts...a lot...so, a little unplugged Halestorm is in order...
