Of all of my many chats backstage last night at Not So Silent Night, I gotta say the most interesting soundbyte I got was “I used to be in a Ghost Club.” That came courtesy of Nanna from Of Monsters and Men. She struggled with her vision as a child and was at a time legally blind. The lack of sight...

It's a bit cliche to talk about how a year has flown by, but 2019 did just that. It's incredible to me that it's already been just about 365 days since Not So Silent Night 2018 - the inaugural holiday bash we throw here in Brooklyn. This year's edition features Mumford and Sons, Cage The Elephant,...

Heckoff Supreme. What does it mean? Who the hell knows. Three dudes from Jersey make up the band whose impending Rock Opera is about to blow your minds. You can check out the gem “The Hostess (Who Is Goth)” on my blog from last week but right now, let’s appreciate the riveting performance the group...

Friends of the station and all around great Alternative act CHVRCHES are back with fresh tunes today. It’s all a part of a new collaboration with video game creator Hideo Kohima’s new project DEATH STRANDING: Timefall which serves as a soundtrack to the accompanying game by the same title. The...

Here I am, yet again providing endlessly fat songs for you to namamamamamamamunch on. This one comes courtesy of Dog Eat Dog. I’ll be straight up with you. I didn’t know Dog Eat Dog existed until two days ago. I was watching this 1995 dynamo concert and they performed this song “Who’s the King?”...

Gather ‘round for a nice old history lesson kiddo. You know Dashboard Confessional? You know Chris Carrabba? You love ‘em, you know all their lyrics, but do you know Chris’ first band? Like 1996 first band? Vacant Andys. Check out a song from deep deep Deep in the vault - it’s called Hokey/Square...

Sounds like it’s from the future.

I often ask myself what I love so much about alternative music from the 1990’s. It can’t be nostalgia as I was too young to experience it and have no personal memories tied to that music. There’s something so honest, real, authentic [insert synonym here] across the board. One of the songs from that...

It was my boss's birthday last week and I just so happened to be in the dog house, so figured this was a great opportunity to earn some much needed brownie points. The Nightcap is on very late, so if this plan doesn't read as well on a full 8 hours compared to whatever state I was in shouldn't be...

I wasn't sure anyone was actually listening until this vehicle popped up on New York's upper west side over the weekend. The leading suspect - Eric the Good News Guardian. Leading contender for what to call it - The Nightcap mobile. Any thoughts? Gimme a ring at 888-923-0923 any night this week...
