In this time of great uncertainty, new music is becoming more and more difficult to come by. Thankfully, LTFL had the great pleasure of connecting (from a responsible distance, of course) with an incredible group that goes by the name Kendall Street Company. I had never listened to KSC before catching wind of their newly... Continue Reading →

The Return of Live Music
IT'S BACK! Just kidding. Unless you count drive-in concerts as "back", which, I personally classify those as: "I paid $150 to cry in my car and I can't get out because I'm blocked in by 50 other people crying in their cars."
