Barring an act of God (or the city of Dallas), the long wait for Manhattan Project Beer Company’s Dallas taproom should come to a satisfying end this fall. The Dallas brewery opened in 2016 when husband and wife team Karl and Misty Sanford and Jeremy Brodt began brewing through a...
Dallas has a growing bounty of diverse, interesting places to eat, but the iconic Dallas restaurant is an institution that hasn’t changed much in the last 30 years: the steakhouse. In almost every affluent neighborhood in town, steakhouses serve big grilled cuts of beef and big tannic bottles of cabernet...
North Richland Hills is about to get a new craft brewery and taproom: Brutal Beerworks.
The demise of a three-year relationship, marred by physical and emotional abuse, fueled Rosegarden Funeral Party's newest release.

Significant local and statewide races remained in the balance Tuesday night as polls closed at 7 p.m. in Dallas County and much of the rest of Texas. Results of the approximately 5 million early votes cast around the state are trickling in. In Dallas County at least, the so-called blue...
Few culinary changes would bring the Dallas area as big a quality-of-life improvement as putting a falafel joint in every neighborhood. We’re working on it, slowly. In the northeastern corner of Plano, Board Bites is setting an example for the kafta revolution.
We accept the murder of children here. We allow it. We expect it. We are unwilling to make any of the serious sacrifices necessary to save these lives. Calling these deaths random or senseless is a lie. In six weeks, three children have been shot to death in two incidents...
Hindsight is 20/20 and typically it's useless, except when it comes to previously released music. You can always go back and enjoy albums you weren't aware of, or ignored, when they were first released. So let's acknowledge the best local albums that flew under the radar in 2018. Ting Tang...

Hector Berlioz first laid eyes on Harriet Smithson in 1827 at Paris’ Odeon Theater, where she was portraying Ophelia in a production of Hamlet. It was love at first sight for the French composer, although “obsession” might be a more accurate description. He knew that he had to meet her...
Barns Courtney possesses all the qualities needed to be this generation's monster-sized rock star.

It’s a sight to behold, and Dallasites can see it firsthand when he...
We have known since the ’00s that the country/hip-hop musical hybrid was a failed experiment, yet for some reason, it keeps being executed tastelessly.

The DSO announced today that Jennifer Hudson will appear with the orchestra as the headlining performance of this year’s SOLUNA Festival. You may remember Hudson as a finalist on season 3 of American Idol, but her talents go far beyond that. She’s since won two Grammys for her work as...
