Nathanial Young, a 27-year-old saxophonist known on TikTok as @NathanialPOV, has just received some bad news. One of his fans who works at a parking garage in Pasadena tipped Young off to an underground space with crazy acoustics. According to a director of the garage, that level was supposed to be a theatre, and those plans were scrapped in favor of creating the parking spots. The vaulted ceilings remain, making it a sonically ripe space to play jazz. But after Young scouted the location following a six-hour shift at his restaurant job and planned a highly-anticipated concert there, the City of Pasadena, which owns the garage, found out about the show. The fan who worked there warned Young that the concert would probably be stopped by private security officers patrolling the block. There were rumors the police would come. Young was forced to cancel. “It's my fault, at the end of the day,” Young said. “I was there last Saturday because I was nervous about it. I was there looking at the flow of traffic. I stayed there for two hours, watching to see what's it going to look like at 8:30, what's it going to look like at 9:30? When can I play here and not bother anybody?”
Tonight, though, 120 people have gathered to watch Young perform in the lower level of a different parking garage, at Occidental College in Los Angeles. The concert, sanctioned by the college and hosted by Occidental’s student radio station (KOXY), is on a cold night ahead of what would be a five-day rainstorm. Yet, there’s a quiet buzz humming throughout this barren space where cars usually sleep. -GQ

Sigrid and DHL FAST-TRACK have unveiled a new mini-documentary that follows the Norwegian pop star as she plays two very special, stripped-down gigs.
Earlier this year, Sigrid returned to Bergen, the city where she lived as a teenager and first began seriously writing music, to join fans on a misty walk through Fløyen Park before she performed an acoustic gig at the gorgeous Skomakerstuan Café. Two weeks later, Sigrid visited the Japanese city of Osaka for the very first time where she took fans along the Minoh Falls trail ahead of a stripped down set inside a traditional Japanese-style villa. The whole thing was captured and turned into a mini-documentary that can be seen below.
“It was such a nice experience,” Sigrid told NME. “We wanted to create a space for people to come together with music and nature, which are the two big loves of my life. It was a chance to remind myself, the people who listen to my music and anyone watching this documentary how important it is to get out into nature whenever they can – not just because it’s amazing for our mental health but also to remember what we need to protect.” -NME
