Lucky Break plays Night Club 101 (June 11, 2026)

Our talk with WHATMORE, the hot new group rebranding the rap game.

With the continuous rise and popularity of female pop stars, there seems to be a shortage of male pop stars… or is there?

It’s been one month since buzzing rapper, B.U.G. Antman dropped his highly anticipated EP, Y’all Ugly. Hailing from the epicenter of American trap music, Atlanta, B.U.G. Antman has emerged through the thickets of talent with his own unique sound in what I’ve personally dubbed, ‘suave trap’. Over the past year, Antman has rolled out singles, accompanying visualizers, and promoted himself with public guerilla marketing. Around the time of Y’all Ugly’s release, I was able to sit down with...

Juniper is an indie band based out in Nashville, originally from Boston. They have taken over the Northeast and Midwest with plans of expanding their reach. The band was formed in 2017, evolving and changing, ultimately bringing Scott Johnson (vox), David Sessions (guitar), and Alejandro Marin (drums) together to form the dynamic band it is today. Their music mirrors their journey, an evolution of growth within the human experience. Topics such as heartbreak, love, loss, and change weave...

With the local indie rock scene in NYC completely taking over, the shows are seemingly getting better and better.

Rachel Bochner is on a journey, and she's inviting you to follow along.

The anticipation could be felt in the air that evening as time ticked closer to Summer Fling’s, the funk-rock band based out in New York City, performance on the Our Wicked Lady stage. The excitement only intensified with each preceding act from the rocking Ok, Tyler, whose lyrics dive into themes of coming-of-age such as heartache, doubt, hope, and more, followed by Thesaurus Rex's theatrical performance of their narrative-driven songs. Summer Fling’s discography, consisting of elements...

The independent genre-less/bending musician and producer Emmett Kai has recently released his third album, Whale Milk. Whale Milk is a transcending 11-track album that possesses this youthful, innocent, alluring, imaginative story that was formulated out of the idea of an honest liberation of artistry. The album brings you on a sonically and visually complex listening experience from the vast layers that are heard throughout each song as it plays with production, music genres, music eras, and...

It's hard to find bands with such musical talent used to create eccentric story-like songs about horse girls, Julius Caesar, and the character you meet at an art-school college party weighted with relatability, creating complex listening experiences. Yet, Thesaurus Rex, the Brooklyn-based indie-rock band, does that and more with effortless charm. Consisting of members Calvin Rezen (Lead Vocals/ Rhythm Guitar), Varun Jhunjhunwalla (Lead Guitar/ Background Vocals), Dan MacDonald (Drums), and...

Zola Simone is a name you’re going to want to know in 2026. A Boston native turned Brooklyn local is bringing a completely new vibe to the queer music scene in New York City. Zola considers her genre of music to fall into the “Queer Pop” category, yet carries heavy notes of RnB in everything she creates.

Cab Ellis is the type of band that is truly dedicated to making music for themselves. Their sounds veer away from mainstream, mass-produced music played in an arena, preferring to provide the soundscapes of an intimate concert in an underground venue. You can hear in the clashing, atmospheric instrumentals and the lead singer’s unpredictable vocals that this is music that is first and foremost creatively driven. The Brooklyn-based band’s third studio album is reminiscent of early emo bands in...

Lana Love is a New York-based pop artist most recognized for joining John Legend's team of artists on The Voice. However, her talents and passions extend far beyond her time on the show. 47 Magazine had the opportunity to sit with Lana as she delved into topics such as overcoming expectations faced by past relationships, mentoring the youth, a secret Brussels Sprout recipe, and the upcoming release of her new single ”ANTIDOTE”. (This interview was conducted in person and has been edited for...

If you have not listened to Walter The Producer yet, now is the time to start before everyone knows his name.

Mercury Lounge was filled with drinks in hand, and everyone’s attention raised towards the stage, awaiting Juniper’s arrival.

Matty is a refreshing addition to pop-music and it was a pleasure to get to know her better as an artist and as a person.

On the weekend of August 9th, I had the pleasure of attending Rogue Music Festival on days one and three. A queer, female-run music festival committed to paying artists fairly (meaning with each ticket purchase, 70% goes to the artists!) With this being their second year, I was thrilled to be invited back to check out some incredible small, local (and not-so-local) bands! Working with people who care for the artists just as much as they do the art is inspiring. From the weekend, I’ve...

Pop Baby has captivated audiences with his impressive dance moves, engaging social media persona, and iconic platinum locks.

This tour de force marks Ella's professional debut, introducing her as a formidable pop-princess in training.

“The best band in New York,” says Calvin Rezen from Thesaurus Rex. The 8-piece Brooklyn-based band, Boys Go To Jupiter performed an unforgettable set exuding high energy and superb storytelling through their musicality and lyricism. They celebrated the release of their newest single, “Tiltawhirl”, by performing it live at Brooklyn Made. Boys Go To Jupiter is like no other band. They are the type of band with the most spirited and exuberant sets that hold your attention for the entirety of...
