We’re proud to announce the return of Tangents Magazine, the lauded freeform magazine that excited and rattled the city of Charlotte during the 1990s, to the newsstands. Tangents was a popular ‘zine that originally ran from 1995 to 1998, pushing the bounds of covering arts, music and culture in Charlotte. Tangents was freewheeling, opinionated and proud of its rough edges. Tangents won national awards for its work, despite being put together each month by a small group of writers, photographers and artists. After returning in 2015 for what was intended at the time to be a one-off surprise 20th anniversary issue, the overwhelming response convinced the original staff to return Tangents to full-time status. Tangents was and will again be a free magazine, available at various locations all over Charlotte. You’ll recognize some of the names involved with this new edition of the magazine, as well as new voices and new ideas. And, well, new weirdness. Tangents is currently planning to be released bi-monthly in 2016, with plans for more issues in 2017.
