Turnover Brings ‘Down On Earth Tour’ to Ventura Music Hall
On July 2nd, American rock band Turnover brought the North American leg of the Down On Earth Tour to a sold out Ventura Music Hall in sunny California. The concert featured opening acts by Minneapolis indie rock band She’s Green and Dallas-based grunge/rock band Narrow Head.
As She’s Green took the stage, the crowd sang along and swayed to the music. The soft, indie music helped ease fans into what was going to be an incredible night in Ventura. When Narrow Head took the stage, the atmosphere drastically changed. The heavy rock music shook the venue. Heads began to thrash and bang as Narrow Head rocked out. A moshpit even formed in the middle of the crowd! The energy that Turnover needed was definitely there that night. After both sets from the co-openers, the crowd was warmed up and ready for Turnover.
These two openers joined Turnover for the first part of their 2026 Down On Earth Tour, which includes twenty-nine shows across North America. The tour began in Allentown, PA, and will end in Olympia, WA. The North American and Canadian segment starts again on November 3rd in Cincinnati, OH, and concludes on December 10th in Asheville, NC.
Founded by brothers Austin (lead vocals) and Casey Getz (drums), along with their childhood friend Danny Dempsey (bass), Turnover later added Nick Rayfield (lead guitar, piano) in 2022 after touring with the band since 2017.
Initially, the band was considered emo from 2011-2014, following their 2013 debut album, Magnolia, influenced by Blink-182 and Title Fight; the band shifted towards a more atmospheric indie rock style after releasing Peripheral Vision in 2015. They drew inspiration from Beach House, Interpol, The Smiths, among others, with each album showcasing new musical influences.
For their latest album, Down on Earth, Turnover experimented by stepping away from their longtime producer and relying on improvisation. Celebrating the 10th anniversary of Peripheral Vision, they revisited their earlier sound and lyricism that distinguished their early work.
The band aimed for a ‘less escape, more presence’ vibe on this record, moving away from psychedelic dream-pop towards themes inspired by natural environments, intimacy, and physical distance between people.

Olivia O’Brien Brings ‘The Pixie Tour’ to Pacific Electric in Los Angeles
While many people would likely agree with Garfield about hating Mondays, fans at Pacific Electric on Monday, November 2nd, probably disagreed. Eager fans of both Sophie Cates and Olivia O’Brien filled the room. Dressed in fairy wings and princess crowns, the night was guaranteed to be whimsical.
As the clock struck 8:00 pm, the lights began to dim. The crowd screamed as Sophie Cates took the stage. Singing songs from previous albums and from her upcoming album, this would be the first time that Sophie had been on stage in a couple of years. After releasing her debut album, Yikes! in 2019, Cates was later signed to RCA Records. Since then, she has released multiple EPs and her second studio album, “SUPERNOVA.” Sophie joined Olivia O’Brien on her North American tour for her new album, Pixie.
As we waited for Olivia to take the stage, some fans passed around little slips of purple paper. As each member of the crowd received a slip, a message was passed along: “When Icarus comes on, place this piece of paper in front of your camera light.” The sense of community among the fans felt surreal. To most, the purple cardstock creates a cool lighting effect, but to the fans, it creates an emotional atmosphere.
Soon after everyone received their slip of purple paper, Olivia was ready to take the stage. Dressed in her album’s theme, she wore a beautiful slip dress and her iconic pixie wings. O’Brien’s sophomore album, Pixie, is a 15-track record that explores projection and fantasy while confronting the manipulative patterns of past relationships. With questions about self-worth and identity, Olivia acknowledges her past relationship dynamics and struggles with letting go. Pixie also highlights the sense of betrayal and emotional abuse that come from toxic dynamics.
While Pixie may have been written about past relationship struggles and learning to navigate life as a girl in her mid-twenties, Olivia also drew inspiration from her childhood innocence. Stories like Percy Jackson sparked the fascination and curiosity that brought back a piece of childlike wonder.

Jungle Bring Their World Tour to Accor Arena in Paris
Last Friday, Jungle kicked off the night in Paris to the sound of “Smile”, opening the show in front of a crowd ready to celebrate.
Their signature basslines swept through the venue, making every one of the 20,000 souls packed inside vibrate. It is hard to find the words for what makes Jungle so magical, other than the spell cast by a sound that blends electronic, reggae and hip-hop influences, one that gives you goosebumps and sets your body in motion. Simply put, it is impossible to hear their music without dancing, smiling and feeling good.
Fast tempos, intricate rhythms and heavy basslines are the usual shorthand for their sound, but live, it becomes something more. Every song carried a touch of magic that no description quite captures, turning the arena into one giant dancefloor.
These photos try to capture what words can’t, a night where Jungle turned an arena into a shared celebration, and where the music did all the talking.
