Ladies and gentlemen, it’s finally here–the Spring 2013 issue of RVA Magazine is out today! This issue will reveal the long-awaited results of our End Of The World Readers Poll, in which YOU voted to determine your favorite local bands, artists, bars, pizza places, and much more. Hunt down a copy and find out whether the RVA massive validated your own personal opinions. Rejoice at the results you agree with or complain about the ones you hate, but once you’re done debating with your friends over the relative merits of the results, remember that there’s plenty more to still read in your brand new copy of RVA #12.
As usual, we’ve got everything you need to know about the latest goings-on in the world of RVA arts, music, and culture crammed between our glossy covers. From profiles of melodic punk band Sundials and the wild, raw, and primitive sounds of garage rockers Nervous Ticks to conversations with blazing metal torchbearers Humungus and experimental indie-punks Heavy Midgets, we’re spanning the considerable breadth of Richmond’s underground music scene in this issue. Add our interviews with illustrator Chris Visions, tattoo artist Charles Berger, and the folks behind DIY printmaking facility Studio Two Three to the equation, and you’ll find insight into many different corners of the local art world.
But wait, there’s more! We’ve also got an in-depth look into the recent experiences of Richmond native and former American Idol contestant Elliott Yamin–find out what’s been happening with him since he finished third on Idol back in 2006, and what he’s up to now. You’ll also learn about documentary director Bryce Wagoner, and his 2010 film looking into the current lives of former adult film stars. Plus we speak with fashion photographer Marcus Hyde about his diligent pursuit of his career goals, and how that’s paid off for him in recent months. You’ll find all of this and more in the brand new issue of RVA Magazine, so pick one up today!
Copies of the issue will be appearing in local businesses around town over the next couple of days, but if you want to be sure to grab yourself a copy, you’d be well advised to make an appearance at Selba Lounge this Friday night for the third in our month-long series of special DJ nights taking place at that illustrious venue. This Friday, we’ll be featuring DJ Carlito on the wheels of steel, spinning a variety of sounds from faraway lands, including India, Malaysia, and Korea, among others, all with one thing in common–they’ve got the beats that make you want to get up out of your seat! So come out to Selba Lounge on Friday, grab a copy of our new issue, and dance the night away with DJ Carlito and RVA Magazine! We’ll see you there!
