Bloc Party

London's Bloc Party capture the essence of a rainy summer day at Atlanta's Music Midtown Festival, winning over a skeptical Jen Cray in the process.

Hot Hot Heat

Canadian-bred Hot Hot Heat began their North American tour with an MTV live taping at Orlando's Hard Rock Live. Jen Cray gives us a glimpse.

Louis XIV

LouisXIV may be ripping off T. Rex and David Bowie, and they may only know how to write songs about one topic (sex!), yet they're music is irressistibly catchy. Jen Cray is hooked.

The White Stripes

Playing their first North American show in support of their latest release, The White Stripes draw a crowd in the tens of thousands for their closing performance on the first night of Atlanta's annual Music Midtown Festival, and Jen Cray gets to scratch out the top name on her list.
