The 22-year old Taylor's music is full of heartbreak, warnings against mean boys who will break your heart, and longing for meeting that special someone and falling in love.

And so it begins - the slow trickle of bands, big and small, making its way to our fair city after playing a ridiculous amount of shows in a ridiculous amount of venues in Austin. The month is only going to get busier, so hang on, it'll be a wild ride.

Brandi and company put on an amazing show – tons of energy and charisma, lots of interaction with the audience. The audience was 100% into the show from start to finish. Lots of enthusiastic cheering, shouting, singing along. This was a crowd who loved everything about Brandi and it showed.

This Week in Great Music – 9/21 – 9/27. Some great shows in Chicago for the upcoming week which have caught my eye.
