The 2023 Tribeca Festival, presented by OKX, returns with “Tribeca at Home,” featuring a selection of films from this year’s lineup. The online platform is available from June 19–July 2 and will bring the magic of the Tribeca Festival directly to viewers’ home screens to share and engage in the Tribeca experience.

The term "rock star" gets thrown around often these days to describe high achievers, such as rock-star professors or rock-star alumni. But every now and then, you come across someone deserving of the title. For John Anthony, a Slippery Rock University music instructor who also graduated from the University, the turn of phrase is quite literal: he's the lead guitarist for The Vindys, an emerging rock band based in northeast Ohio that is catching a lot of attention for their music, as well as in the film and sports industries.

Joining MkX among the musical acts in the second Stark Pride Festival will be The Vindys, a Northeast Ohio-based band that mixes alt and classic rock with jazz, pop and other influences.

The Vindys - “Bugs”

A restless night's sleep for Jackie Popovec, lead singer of The Vindys, sends her on a wild inception-like dream within a dream.

The Jefferson Area Music Band Department is bringing back live music with a Wednesday night concert.

The concert, featuring the regional indie band, The Vindys, will begin at 7 p.m. in the newly renovated Falcon Auditorium at Jefferson Area High School, presented by JAHS’s music technology class.

On the same evening as the rehearsal, on ESPN’s ACC Network, Popovec’s voice, with the same lyrics and hard-driving melody, were being used in a 30-second promotional spot for ACC women’s softball.

The sound of the string section swelled during the introduction to the song “Classic,” and Jackie Popovec nearly swooned at the beauty of it. It was one peak moment in a concert that was full of them.

More than 30 instrumentalists with the Canton Symphony Orchestra will rock out with Northeast Ohio-based alt rock band The Vindys on Saturday.

The Youngstown rockers will perform in concert at 7:30 p.m. Saturday with the full Canton Symphony Orchestra at Umstattd Hall, 2331 17th St. NW. Lead singer Jackie Popovec said the band is always up for new things, but this is a first – and she’s got some butterflies.
