REVIEW: Janet Jackson offers a high-energy dance party to AMP crowd

  • By Kevin Kinder · Monday, Jul 16, 2018

The Walmart AMP booked a superstar for Friday night. And Jackson delivered the kind of marquee extravaganza that we always hope to see at our largest music venue.

REVIEW: Thirty Seconds to Mars uses energetic crowd to fuel their carnival-like live show

  • By Kevin Kinder · Monday, Jul 9, 2018

If you could assemble a concert from a do-it-yourself kit, the result might turn out something very much like what Thirty Seconds to Mars served to a crowd in Rogers.

REVIEW: Glitzy pop showcase by Kesha and Macklemore brings escapism and openness to the AMP

  • By Kevin Kinder · Tuesday, Jun 26, 2018

“You can be sensitive AND blast people with a confetti cannon, if that’s your dream.”

REVIEW: Ray LaMontagne opts for electricity at AMP show with Neko Case

  • By Kevin Kinder · Wednesday, Jun 13, 2018

LaMontagne’s change in dynamics is worth noting, depending on when you might have first heard his music. He’s doing what he wants.

The best albums of 2017 (that I listened to, anyway)

  • By Kevin Kinder · Friday, Dec 22, 2017

These are the albums that spoke to me. I hope you found some music to enjoy this year as well.

REVIEW: Kiss brings out their army and their fire for warmly ridiculous concert at the AMP

  • By Kevin Kinder · Friday, Sep 29, 2017

Kiss is growing into the mature, nostalgic phase of their career, but there’s no sign of it stopping, maybe just slowing a bit.

REVIEW: Roots Fest Day 4 (and final thoughts): Music and plans made on the fly

  • By Kevin Kinder · Monday, Aug 28, 2017

Fayetteville and Northwest Arkansas showed off with some delightful weather and large, engaged crowds at most events. The partnership this community has with the Roots Festival is a strong one, too. And we’re better off for having them here.

REVIEW: Roots Fest Day 2: More of the same, with different results

  • By Kevin Kinder · Saturday, Aug 26, 2017

You just never know how a night of music will affect you, which is why we chase it from night to night. And thankfully, we have two more nights to chase.

REVIEW: Roots Fest opening night shines bright in a new location

  • By Kevin Kinder · Friday, Aug 25, 2017

We closed the first night of the 2017 edition of Roots Festival with full bellies, full hearts and a fuller representation of what the Roots Fest might grow to be.

REVIEW: Matchbox Twenty, 20 years after debut, embrace millennial nostalgia

  • By Kevin Kinder · Tuesday, Aug 8, 2017

Matchbox Twenty sounded very much like … Matchbox Twenty.

REVIEW: Tedeschi Trucks Band offers hot jams on warm night at the Arkansas Music Pavilion

  • By Kevin Kinder · Wednesday, Jul 26, 2017

The band had moments of bliss last night – searing guitar, vocal harmonies between Tedeschi and backing/occasional lead vocalist Mike Mattison and a big, brassy backing band.

REVIEW: Mary J. Blige visit showcases current minimalistic, honest approach

  • By Kevin Kinder · Tuesday, Jun 6, 2017

The concert was both somber and inspiring. While it was underwhelming in some ways, it delivered in many others.

REVIEW: Train rolls through radio hits on a night we needed live music

  • By Kevin Kinder · Tuesday, May 23, 2017

“Live music uplifts, not depresses. Live music heals, not harms. Live music unifies, not separates. The next time you get a chance, go see some live music. It’s good for you, and it’s good for us.”

The 10 Best Albums of 2016 (probably)

  • By Kevin Kinder · Tuesday, Dec 27, 2016

I have used many mental metrics to determine my favorite albums of a year in the past.

REVIEW: The Lumineers breeze through set of folk pop on beautiful Arkansas night

  • By Kevin Kinder · Monday, Oct 3, 2016

The Lumineers have turned themselves into something sturdy, if not flashy, and big, even when they attempt to be small.

REVIEW: Fayetteville shines in final day of Roots Festival programming

  • By Kevin Kinder · Tuesday, Aug 30, 2016

The Roots Festival feels very much a part of the fabric of Fayetteville, and this city feels like a really nice home for the festival.

REVIEW: Roots Festival’s second day shows the connective powers of music

  • By Kevin Kinder · Sunday, Aug 28, 2016

Some of this kind of magic – and magic is the only word I know for it – comes from the nature of festivals. There are musicians in town, and they have time on their hands between sets.
