The weather is growing colder, the year is drawing to a close, and the time approaches for the release of RVA Magazine’s final issue of 2015. We’re ending the year with yet another awesome issue to wrap up our ten year anniversary in fine fashion.
We’ve covered the arts, music, and culture in our fair city as only RVA Mag can do, and this issue is no different!
#23 starts with an in-depth investigation into the work of artist Darryl Starr, who gained fame as an artist in NYC but has recently returned to his roots here in RVA. We’ll also talk to Lamb Of God vocalist D. Randall Blythe on the occasion of his new memoir, Dark Days.
That’s not all we’ve got for you, though; we’ll also be looking at a great deal of local music from all sorts of different genres, from buzzworthy singer-songwriter Natalie Prass to up and-coming young talent Lucy Dacus. We’ll be profiling the peripatetic, experimental duo Lobo Marino, the “hardest working band in Richmond, Night Idea, and getting a closer look at RVA hip hop’s next big thing, Divine Council!
We’ll be letting you know where to pick up the issue as we complete drop offs throughout the week, so stay tuned to our social media for more details there.
Check out the entire mag below, and check out below that for details on our release party tonight at The ANswer.
