Buzzing Around Town

What is on your list of shows to see this year? Here are two to kick the new year off in style.

Shine Indy Presents - Tequila Party For Robots
Friday, January 16, 2015
The Vogue
6259 N College Ave
21+, doors open 8:00 PM, show 9:00 PM, $10
I'm admit that the name of the show caught my eye. In exploring where the "Tequila Party For Robots" came from, I quickly realized that it is the name of a song by the Indianapolis indie band, Minute Details. And Minute Details has a brand new album (their first), that includes the song. I can't wait to hear it. I want to drink tequila with robots too!
The lineup includes other terrific Indy bands, Veseria, Brother O' Brother, and bleedingkeys.
And when was the last time you were at the Vogue? Now would be a good time to check it out again and support local music. I think it is grand that the Vogue continues to support local music by hosting them on their iconic stage.


Hostel Take Over series
Zulu Nation presents: Rock the House!
Friday, January 23, 2015
Indy Hostel
4903 Winthrop Avenue
all-ages, 8:00 PM, $5 or $3 with donation (details below)
Have you been to Indy Hostel for a show yet? If you haven't, make it a goal for 2015. The Hostel is a warm and cozy space to experience art and music.
For the January edition of the Hostel Take Over music series, Universal Zulu Nation of Central Indiana is hosting a hip hop showcase and open mic evening. Live performances by Strong Roots Records' own PHD (J.O. & The Klinik) & Black Eddie, Hinx Jones, The ProForms, Ben-Real, Rehema McNeil, and Sonny Paradise, with DJ Mayor Tom on the decks. I just love the term, "on the decks," by the way!
They are also collecting winter clothing (new or gently used) for Wheeler Mission Ministries.





Not-for-profit director by day, music writer by night, Nora Spitznogle reviews music that happened and previews music and events around Broad Ripple Village. Nora managed CATH Inc coffeehouse at 54th Street and College Avenue for seven years. During that time she hosted hundreds of local and touring musicians, both at the coffeehouse and her home. When CATH closed in 2004 and the music was no longer coming to her, she had to wander from her corner of Broad Ripple to see what is happening elsewhere. You can find her at Second Helpings during the work day, waitressing at the Red Key on Saturday nights and prowling Broad Ripple music venues the rest of the time.
