Larkin Poe on Fame and Family
Megan and Rebecca Lovell, the sisters behind Larkin Poe, and I sat down with me at their very first Bourbon & Beyond. They were newbies in the business, in awe of all the giant acts. Things have certainly changed as they came back one Grammy richer and had a packed audience.

Soul Asylum’s Dave Pirner on the New Album, Runaway Train & Kamala Harris
I had the pleasure of interviewing Dave Pirner of Soul Asylum at the Bourbon & Beyond music festival, just a week before the release of the group’s latest album, Slowly But Shirley. This album is a big deal for Pirner as his last was released in 2020, just in time for the Covid-19 lockdown. The tour was cancelled, and the album’s release didn’t get the attention that it should have.

Wisconsin Dells:
With more than 400 million visitors a year, it’s no wonder the Wisconsin Dells has been dubbed “The Waterpark Capital of the World.” It’s a place for fun and family, with attractions inside and out so you never have to worry about weather the sun is shining.

Sable Navy Pier
Hotel openings during the pandemic did not always receive the fanfare they would have before. Some real gems came in without the usual notice.

Follow the Blues Brothers to Old Joliet Prison
Chicagoland is a term used to describe the towns surrounding the Windy City, many of which have personalities all of their own. One such gem is just an hour southwest of Chicago and it’s got quite a history. It includes a prison and a lot of celebrities that have passed through there.

Yellowcard Celebrates
It’s hard to define the music of the band Yellowcard. The Jacksonville, Florida band has been labeled Pop Punk, Alternative Metal, Post-Grunge, and even good ole Rock N Roll. One thing everyone agrees on is the staying power of their very first album, the 2002 album Ocean Avenue.

Illinois Musical Riches Showcased
When you look for hotbeds of rock and roll, Illinois is probably not one of the places you’d expect to find. You would be missing out on some of music’s renowned talent if you didn’t look at the history of song in this Midwest state.

Spirits for Holiday Parties and Gifts. Top Story - December 2019.
At one time, you could go into a store and find a liquor aisle to browse through. That aisle has now turned into a dozen aisles, with spirits you probably never even heard of. Some of those liquors you may never want or need. When you do want something different for a special occasion or a gift, how do you know where to start?
