The Strike & SumSun 7/10/26 – the same night as a Noah Kahan show in Boston

I’m sure someone more qualified than me would be happy to speak about algorithm bubbles and the dangers therein. However a very comfortable and happy algorithm bubble exists in Spotify centered somewhere around the bands the 1975 and The Band CAMINO. This is where I landed when I started hearing more and more about the STRIKE. The more I listened on Spotify, the more determined I became to see this group live, and finally the time came up this past July in Boston. Unfortunately, their presence on social media sites like YouTube would lead you to believe the live show isn’t their forte – however, I was quickly proven wrong as the band brought 1000% of the energy needed put on a great show.

Burnin’ Up Tour review

As a kid, I didn’t grow up with Disney, so a lot of of millennial or other groups lore doesn’t hit with me. But of course, I’ve always known who the Jonas Brothers are, and I’ve enjoyed their solo projects without really realizing that they put out so much music as a group when they were young.
