RVA No. 7 Is Out Today!

by | Dec 16, 2011 | POLITICS

Hey everybody, our latest issue is on the streets of this fair city as of today! It’s crammed full of great articles designed to get you hyped on the diverse, thriving artistic underground here in Richmond. From interviews with local hip-hop movers and shakers Luggage and Black Liquid to profiles of experimental indie rockers Canary Oh Canary and doom metal headcrushers Balaclava to in-depth coverage of the local art scene featuring illustrator-turned-painter Sterling Hundley and photographer Anthony Hall, we’ve got as much info about the local scene in this new issue as we could possibly fit in there. And that’s not to mention our interviews with DC/MD electronic musician and moombahton inventor Dave Nada, Virginia Beach collage artist John Sebastian Vitale, and Woodbridge snowboard manufacturers Monument Snowboards. Plus, to top it all off, we’ve got a wild and crazy interview with Megadeth, in which writer Adam Ganderson nearly gets himself thrown out of a show! There’s a lot of great stuff to see and read in our new issue, and it’s all free!

The new issue will be available at many fine retail locations around the city over the coming days and weeks, but if you just can’t wait to get your hands on a copy, you’re in luck, because we’ll be giving them out at the Holidaze party at New York Deli (2920 W. Cary St, in Carytown) Friday night! Audio Ammo DJs Long Jawns and Doddie will be spinning the tunes starting at 10 PM and we’ll keep giving away copies of the brand new issue until they’re all gone, so come on out and party with us!
