Breanne Düren 6/23/11, a set on Flickr.

Breanne Duren is a singer / songwriter from Burnsville, Minnesota. She joins Adam Young in Owl City as his keyboardist and back vocalist. Aside from performing with him, she opened the show at Roseland Ballroom on June 23rd 2011 with her own music. Every time I’ve been there, this being my 3rd time, it becomes very cold. Now that isn’t always a bad thing. They’ve got good air conditioning; it was just a little too much for the temperature at the time. What glued everything together well is how energetic the crowd was. I guess you need intense air conditioning for the kind of sweat these people broke. Breanne brings happiness and fun into the room with her pleasant lyrics and sunny voice. A cute one, she is. “I love to dance. I just want to groove a little real quick!” she says as she’s halfway into her set. She requested that the crowd dance a little because it just feels good. Although I could tell not many people already knew her songs, everyone was very into it as her set progressed. A great performance was put on by Breanne and her fellow band members. Check out photos our photographer Kevin Aranibar took!

Underoath 7-7-11, a set on Flickr.
   City and Sounds had the chance to attend the Illuminatour with Underoath and other great acts.   I’ve seen Underoath before and I can honestly say that I have yet to experience their perform in a form of mediocrity. Underoath played at The Crazy Donkey in Farmingdale, NY and definitely brought a live, energetic crowd and an equally pleasing performance to the table (to my knowledge). Even though I feel like the setlist was an okay mixture of new and old, I still wasn’t very pleased with it. My favourite song they played was Emergency Broadcast: The End Is Near. Although I wish they would have played A Moment Suspended In Time as well as more songs on their 3rd album, “Lost In the Sound Of Separation”. I loved the crowd’s reactions to the older songs. Underoath would play a sample and fade into the next song. Once the crowd realized what song it was, they would all jump up and go insane! It’s usually like that when bands play their ‘old hits’. The openers (Let Live, Stray From the Path, Times of Grace) weren’t really to my liking but they indeed put on a good performance.
