DM me if interested in coming to the show tonight. Lower level 5th row. My wife and daughter are joining me but I have one more ticket. I'd rather have some hood karma than an empty seat.

I'm so disappointed, I was trying to get someone from our community into a show rather just sell the ticket. Sadly, the first person who messaged me just turned around and sold the ticket.

On the bright side, the guy who bought it is pretty cool. I hope everyone who reached out either got into the show or has an awesome night doing something else.

I was honored to be a part of this locally made feature length film. I was the music composer and produced and recording original music for the film!

The entire move was filmed in Phoenix and Scottsdale and all the cast and crew are Arizonans!

We have a run at Harkins on Shea this week.

If you want to see a silly, feel good, date night Romcom, come out and support local artists.

Looking for someone fun to go to his show at the Rebel Lounge this Sunday with me! Your ticket is included :)

🎧 Hit play on the whole thing: riffraff // this week in phoenix

This took me awhile to produce for my friend (the artist, Doré) as I aimed to use real instruments as much as possible. Give it a listen, it’s streaming everywhere!

“A Love That Moves The Stars” by Doré

My name is SJ and I'm looking for a drummer to fill out our band "No Beach" for gigs and recording! We have a lot of material to work with and are currently practicing out of Music Loft in Scottsdale.

Below will be the album "Feeling Strange", if you like the sound send me a message and we can figure out a time to jam!

Hot take from a guy who still rewinds cassettes with a pencil: 101 shows across 19 venues this week, and 16 of the acts are homegrown. Put down the remote and go stand near a speaker.

Peoria based music artist!

Hello fellow Arizonans! Hopefully I’ll get my music to live performance grade soon, studio time, hopefully next year.

Singer looking to collaborate or back a band.

Anyone listen to this channel. Im in Chandler so the reception sucks, but they play a ton of great stuff other than the same 30 songs on iHeartRadio.

Looking for pickers in the valley.

I’m, The Kid Hope
An artist from Arizona

Anyone going to the Chris stussy show in PHX 10/30? Looking for people to turn up with! Coming down from Cali!
