Bad Suns at the Belasco in Los Angeles
Los Angeles’ own BAD SUNS took their Accelerator Tour and finished up with a sold out performance at The Belasco Theater in Downtown Los Angeles this past Friday 10/17. Bad Suns have come along way into their own, creating and crafting their formative years from the Cobalt Cafe to the Roxy and beyond throughout the world to showcase their brand of infectious pop infused rock.
Opening up the show was Jersey boy done good JOE P. Joe’s fantastic singer songwriter harkens back to early Springsteen, showcase Americana rock with indie feel good sounds to create and craft a sound all his own. Joe P has been making a name for himself throughout the Eastern United States, and this was a great way to introduce his brand of rock to a growing fanbase here in LA. Check out Joe P on his debut EP “Emily Can’t Sing”, on all inter webs everywhere.
BAD SUNS took the stage to an already hyped up crowd that kicked into overdrive the moment the sounds of “Slow Karma” of the album of the same tour name, Accelerator. The band as a three piece is incredibly polished, with Christo Bowman showing his vocal chops, while Gavin Bennett held a solid low end and Miles Morris absolutely shines behind the drum kit, finding wonderful ways to bring the drums to the forefront without overtaking the shine off the rest of the band. The band launches into “We Move Like The Ocean,” off of “Language & Perspective,” and “Life Was Easier When I Only Cared About Me.”
The band has an incredible work ethic, and even since their inception as Bad Suns in 2012, have not slowed up one bit. Make sure to check them out on your favorite streaming site, and check them out live when the band returns to Europe in 2026.

Goose Brings their ‘Summer Tour’ to the Commodore Ballroom in Vancouver
Goose brought their 2026 Summer Tour to Vancouver on Tuesday night, turning the Commodore Ballroom into a sweaty, late-night dance party that stretched well past 11 p.m.
The Connecticut-based quartet — Rick Mitarotonda, Peter Anspach, Trevor Weekz and drummer Cotter Ellis — has built a reputation for letting songs breathe onstage, and Vancouver got the full treatment. The band played two sets and an encore, giving the crowd plenty of room to settle into the grooves and watch the songs take unexpected turns.
The first set opened with “Yeti” before moving through “All I Need,” “Turbulence & The Night Rays” and “Time to Flee.” “Everything Must Go” kept things moving before “Hungersite” closed the set with one of the night’s bigger stretches of improvisation.
After a break, Goose returned and launched into “Electric Avenue,” a crowd-pleasing choice that had the Commodore singing along.
There was little interest in rushing through the evening. Goose gave each section space, moving from tight grooves to loose instrumental passages without making the show feel like a collection of extended solos.
For a band coming off a European run and heading into some of its biggest U.S. shows, Vancouver felt like another strong stop on the way. The Commodore may be a much smaller room than Madison Square Garden or SPAC, but Goose seemed perfectly happy to stretch out inside it.

Chance The Rapper Brings ‘Coloring Book 10 Year Anniversary Tour’ to Montreal at MTelus
After 10 years since its release, Chance the Rapper is back on tour to celebrate his album Coloring Book! With Montreal being the 4th stop on the tour, many fans packed into Montreal’s MTELUS on August 15th, 2026, with no idea of what to expect.
First, the audience was thrilled by an energetic and upbeat performance by opener La Reezy. His quick lyrics and heavy instrumentals had no trouble in setting the tone for the night, specifically during “Gold Chains,” and with stellar crowd engagement during “We Live.”
Then, Chance the Rapper took the stage! With Coloring Book being such a staple in 2016, especially in the rap community, it is a daunting task to bring that nostalgic energy back on stage. But, with a 24-song setlist, Chance does just that. Unsurprisingly, half the setlist features songs from Coloring Book, with the set opening with “All We Got,” and closing with “Same Drugs,” featuring a confetti-filled performance of “No Problem” in the middle. However, Chance doesn’t shy away from performing a few hits from his other albums as well, such as “Link Me In The Future” from STAR LINE, and some older work in Acid Rap.
Overall, there is something powerful about hearing these songs a decade later. The themes stay the same, yet as both the artist and audience grow, there’s new meanings and emotions to be found in the lyrics. The anniversary show felt like a reunion for those who grew up with Coloring Book, and that’s what ultimately makes this tour a success.
