I Flashed Back To The 90s With Into It. Over It. At Strange Matter
The scene at Strange Matter last Sunday night, where Into It. Over It., The World Is A Beautiful Place And I Am No Longer Afraid To Die, A Great Big Pile Of Leaves, and Sundials played an all-ages show, was familiar to me. But it wasn’t much like anything I’ve seen in a long time.

Speedy Ortiz, Sundials, Spit-take Rock Early Show at Strange Matter
It’s been quite awhile since I’ve attended any shows in Richmond. Prior to the onslaught of holiday shows happening at Strange Matter (Down to Nothing, Pig Destroyer, etc.) there didn’t seem to be a lot of shows that were catching my attention.

RVA Shows You Must See This Week: 1/1-1/7
This is the first installment of the new year for RVA Magazine’s weekly live music preview column, and we’re beginning the year with a changing of the guard. For over three years now, our live music coverage has been handled by John Lewis Morgan, head honcho at One Way Richmond. Unfortunately, due to other responsibilities related to day jobs and running his own site, John has had to step down from his position covering live music here at RVA Magazine. We of course wish him the best, and hope to see him continue to shake things up with his site’s unique contribution to the local scene.
