2014 is drawing to a close, and here at RVA Magazine, we’re looking forward to 2015, when we’ll celebrate our tenth anniversary! However, before we get there, we’ve got one more issue to lay on this city, and it’ll be filled with all the great art, music, and culture you’ve come to expect from RVA Mag over the past decade.
For starters, we’ll be taking an in-depth look at the history and future of the Richmond Comedy Coalition, who have taken things to the next level over the past year with the opening of their very own Coalition Theater. On the musical side of things, we’re digging into exactly what’s going on with Jellowstone Records, a new label founded by Reggie Pace (No BS! Brass/Bon Iver) and Devonne Harris (Butcher Brown/DJ Harrison) that’s uniting the worlds of jazz, funk, hip hop, soul, and more under their RVA-centric banner. Plus, we’ll get the latest from Those Manic Seas, the energetic alt-rockers with the television-headed mannequin singer.
We haven’t even mentioned all the great art that you’ll find in the upcoming issue of RVA Mag–so let’s get to that now! Local artist Jacob Eveland has grabbed some attention lately with his artistic prints and his visually arresting murals–we talk to him to get the scoop on what makes him tick. We also present an interview with David Flores, the California muralist who contributed giant Snoopy and Woodstock figures to 2014’s edition of the Richmond Mural Project. On top of all this, you can expect the latest news in the world of local fashion, craft beer, and all sorts of additional esoteric knowledge you’ll only obtain from between the covers of RVA Magazine’s Winter 2014 issue–don’t miss it!
