A look back at the Shaky Knees Festival, 2025 version.
Shaky Knees Festival – Live @ Piedmont Park
Eladio Carrión – Live @ Coca-Cola Roxy
Eladio’s ascension has been methodical yet relentless: from early underground tracks to viral hits, from mixtapes to full LPs, collaborations, stadiums. With Don KBRN, his latest and namesake album, he cements a phase, both completing a cycle (of the KBRN series) and pushing ahead, combining vulnerability and braggadocio, refinement and raw energy.
Architects – Live @ Buckhead Theatre
Architects have proven that they are not only survivors of a turbulent era but vanguards of a genre that continues to evolve under their guidance.
RiverBeat Festival – Live @ Tom Lee Park
Despite the challenging weather conditions, the festival's lineup and atmosphere proved that nothing could dampen the spirits of those who gathered to celebrate the rich musical heritage of the Bluff City.
Melvins – Live @ The Masquerade
Melvins needed no spectacle, pyrotechnics, or elaborate stagecraft to command the attention of a capacity crowd. Instead, they delivered a relentless, tightly coiled sonic assault rooted in over four decades of uncompromising experimentation and genre-defying heaviness.
