SUMMARY:The Wedding Present - Seamonsters 35th Anniversary Tour
DESCRIPTION:The Wedding Present was born in Leeds\, in the UK\, in 1985 with the release of the debut single GO OUT AND GET EM’ BOY! and the band’s first album\, GEORGE BEST\, followed a couple of years later. With the early releases on their own label\, the band acquired a reputation for bittersweet\, breathtakingly honest love songs immersed in whirlwind guitars\, so it was quite extraordinary that they decided to explore traditional Eastern European folk music for their major label debut on RCA Records in 1989 with UKRAINSKI VISTUPI V JOHNA PEELA. However\, this was soon to be followed by the more traditionally incendiary BIZARRO\, which featured their first hit single KENNEDY. \nThe band’s next step was to enlist the aid of the noise-mongering [and\, at that point\, relatively unknown] sound engineer Steve Albini. The resulting SEAMONSTERS\, recorded in the snowy wilds of Minnesota in just 11 days\, suggested a more thoughtful Wedding Present.

SUMMARY:Angel Du$t\, Outta Pocket\, JIVEBOMB\, Recollection
DESCRIPTION:Justice Tripp lives in the future. For nearly two decades\, the musician has consistently been ahead of the curve: first with Trapped Under Ice\, where he led the way for a new wave of heavy hardcore\, and then as the mastermind behind Angel Du$t\, where he blazed the trail for the current generation of aggressive musicians to branch out into unabashedly melodic territory. Tripp’s work is marked by an ever-evolving creativity that’s made him highly influential\, but which has often put him a number of steps ahead of the very trends that he’s helped to inspire. Now Angel Du$t are back with their new album\, Brand New Soul: a fearless and open-hearted tribute to all things rock\, offering listeners a chance to be right there with them on the cutting edge. Tripp might forever be keeping an eye on the future\, but Angel Du$t’s time is now.

SUMMARY:Dirty Three
DESCRIPTION:Like Tortoise\, Gastr del Sol\, and\, later\, Godspeed You! Black Emperor\, The Dirty Three helped reinvent the language of indie rock\, their ragged and ecstatic instrumentals expanding the form’s sense of possibility in the mid-‘90s. Guitarist Mick Turner\, drummer Jim White\, and violinist Warren Ellis were busy members of the fertile Melbourne scene in the ‘80s\, shuttling in and out of assorted scabrous bands. Their collective reputation grew quickly after they formed in the early ‘90s\, their savage and unhinged shows in Australian pubs leading to an international record deal and major tours. Horse Stories and Ocean Songs and Whatever You Love\, You Are established them as a truly great improvisational act\, reframing the terms of a power trio by adding absolute punk gusto to music that sounds a little like jazz\, a little like a string band\, and a lot like nothing else.\n\nTurner\, White\, and Ellis have become in-demand players on their own in the last 30 years. White is a premier session musician\, working with the likes of Bill Callahan\, Cat Power\, and PJ Harvey. Ellis is the wild-eyed\, wild-bearded counterpart of Nick Cave. And aside from his own consummate solo records\, Turner has worked with Will Oldham and Courtney Barnett. But on 2024’s unstoppable Love Changes Everything\, their first album in a dozen years\, The Dirty Three proved that their vocabulary and chemistry have only expanded. The album’s sixth and final untitled movement is music of pure rapture\, the three old friends coalescing in the last half with a roar that sounds like love\, beauty\, and heaven all at once.

SUMMARY:Nothing full body 2\, Cryogeyser\, Violent Magic Orchestra
DESCRIPTION:Nothing have always been rule-breakers. Shoegaze renegades who’ve rebuilt the stereotypically lightweight genre in their own bloodyknuckled American image. Outlaw poets spilling existential dread on mile-wide canvasses of fuzz and reverb. Beginning as a Philly-born bedroom solo project in 2010\, Nothing’s music has always captured the full scale of the human condition\, both the blaring anger and the whispering sadness. A Short History of Decay\, Nothing’s fifth solo album and first for Run For Cover Records\, widens that aperture even further\, providing the most hi-def rendering of Nothing to date. The band have never sounded this colossal\, never felt this intimate\, never been this honest.

SUMMARY:Addison Groove Project with special guest Jennifer Hartswick
DESCRIPTION:It’s been about a lifetime since Addison Groove Project last performed live. Brendan’s a doctor now\, Andrew’s a therapist\, Ben’s a chef\, Dave’s a middle school band director\, and Rob… well Rob still plays (Matisyahu\, Star Kitchen) around software development gigs. Everyone’s got kids and instead of gathering together every weekend at another iconic New England rock club\, the band busts chops and shares eye-opening music in the vaunted Loose Moose group chat. No one ever hated anyone else back when the band was touring\, but we do that even less now. Out of the group chat\, the desire to play together again after 12 years was formulated and here we are tryna’ sell you some tickets again.Forming in high school in the suburbs outside of Boston\, Addison Groove Project gained a reputation as one of the United States’ hardest working and most talented young bands in the late 90s and early 2000s. Just a bunch of teenage dumb dumbs driving all over the country in a busted-up van\, we earned a national following and slots on some of the country’s most prestigious festivals like Bonnaroo by combining funk\, soul\, rock\, groove and jazz. Come out in March to see if we’ve still got it or if we should stick to our day jobs.

SUMMARY:Ben Quad
DESCRIPTION:The story of BEN QUAD is punctuated by moments of randomness: a chance meeting via Craigslist bonding over bands like Microwave and Modern Baseball. An out-of-nowhere name drop from indie tastemaker Ian Cohen lauding their debut album\, 2022’s I’m Scared That’s All There Is. A one-off sonic curveball that somehow turned into their biggest song – and\, without them realizing it at the time\, a brand-new freedom to reinvent themselves.\n\nBut serendipity has done more than bring Ben Quad here\, to the release of WISHER\, their first LP for Pure Noise Records: It’s taught them to thrive inside the unpredictable\, to harness a no-limits musical mentality and self-effacing sense of humor and turn it into some of the most resonant\, captivating emo of today. Well\, actually\, post-emo.\n\n“This is our love letter to the genre\,” singer/guitarist Sam Wegrzynski says of the album. “It’s an amalgamation of all the shit emo kids like: screaming\, synths\, pop sensibilities all mixed with crazy emotional stuff. What’s post-emo if not the next evolution?”\n\nThe Oklahoma City-based quartet have always been evolving. I’m Scared That’s All There Is cemented them as a force in the modern emo movement\, landing them on bills with the likes of Hot Mulligan and Knuckle Puck. The standalone single “You’re Part of It” added a harder\, screamo-tinged edge to their sound\, while an outpouring of support to a social media shitpost declaring “If ‘You’re Part of It’ gets 10K streams by Wednesday\, we’ll put out a screamo EP” took them even further down that road with Ephemera\, their 2024 EP. (The song currently boasts more than 4 million streams.) Now\, with Wisher\, the band deliver a true follow-up to their debut that fully embraces everything that’s followed it since.\n\nThe 10 songs on Wisher find Wegrzynski\, Edgar Viveros (lead guitar)\, Henry Shields (bass/backing vocals) and Isaac Young (drums) pulling from every corner of their record collections: jagged punk riffs\, glassy math-rock\, sticky pop hooks and glitchy production that push toward something futuristic. But rather than a scattershot collage\, these elements recur as motifs – a melody here\, a guitar line there – stitched together with purpose and intention.\n\nFirst single “It’s Just A Title” serves up a groove factory complemented by smooth vocals and lifting keyboards\, while the frantic “Painless” rips through speakers with the ferocity and melodicism of They’re Only Chasing Safety-era Underoath\, if their guitarists spent more time studying Midwest emo than metalcore. “Did You Decide to Skip Arts and Crafts” welcomes Treaty Oak Revival singer Sam Canty – and a well-placed banjo – onto a genre-blending Tumblr-era throwback\, “Classic Case of Dead Guy on the Ground” ascends with a preposterously sublime falsetto hook\, and the brooding “West of West” brings things full circle for the band with a cameo from Microwave’s Nathan Hardy.\n\nLeaving the Sooner State for New Jersey\, the band connected with producer Jon Markson (The Story So Far\, Drug Church) to bring the album to life\, taking up residence at his farm/studio for their first real studio experience. Amidst barnyard animals and peaceful countryside\, the idyllic setting provided the perfect backdrop – full of time and space – to find themselves and the next evolution of their sound.\n\n“Our older stuff was done driving to and from places on the weekend\,” Wegrzynski says. “But this time\, we had access to rooms full of instruments like banjos and sleigh bells and more amp heads than I could ever imagine. I think it’s a change in sound because it’s a change in scenery. How can you be sad in a beautiful place like that?”\n\nThat shift in perspective carries directly into Wisher’s subject matter. In stark contrast to the heavy existential questions the band posed on I’m Scared That’s All There Is\, the songs here aren’t about survival but rather savoring life’s small victories – the moments that might not feel like much at the time but can snowball into something bigger if you only allow yourself to find the joy in them. In many ways\, it’s much like Ben Quad themselves\, their own story built on a string of seemingly minor twists of fate that’s only been amplified by a relentless DIY attitude and instinct to chase every idea\, no matter how improbable.\n\n“We really wanted to build a more positive outlook\, a more hopeful tone\,” Viveros explains. “We’re still talking about love\, loss – all the things that emo bands write about – but we wanted to spin it on its head and let people know that things can get better. Life is what you make it\, and it’s important to grasp onto the little moments.”\n\nRead Less

SUMMARY:The Slackers
DESCRIPTION:  \n \nFor 32 years\, the NYC-based and critically acclaimed Slackers have been touring the world with their blend of Ska\, Reggae\, and Soul. \nSince 1991\, the Slackers have released fifteen albums and countless singles\, while their 1000s of live performances feed their fans with energetic sets of ecstatic music. \nThe Slackers have been called ‘the Sound of New York’ by the New York Times. They were described by Brooklyn Vegan as a “clean mix of Ska\, Reggae\, and Soul that gets dirtied up by Vic Ruggiero’s tough New York accent.’ \nIn April 2022\, The Slackers released a new album\, “Dont Let the Sunlight Fool Ya” (Pirates Press) which quickly shot to the top of the US Billboard charts.  The first time that a Slackers’ album has charted!  Ironically after 30 years as a band\, they qualified as a Billboard ‘new artist!’ The Washington Post noted that the Slackers “remain at the top of their game.” \nThe chart-topping sales of “Dont Let the Sunlight Fool Ya” capped a 2-year comeback of the Slackers.  When Covid stopped live shows in 2020\, the Slackers pivoted to livestreams and made 5 full band concerts that were broadcast internationally to an audience of thousands.  After the streams\, they stayed in the studio and recorded the tunes that became ‘Dont Let the Sunlight Fool Ya.’ \nReturning to live gigging in the 2nd half of 2021 through to the end of 2022\, they have managed to make up all the shows that were postponed from 2020.  This included a triumphant European club date tour in October 2022 that included 9 sellout shows including London’s Underworld. \nIn 2023\, the Slackers are booking 90 concerts in the USA\, Canada\, Europe\, and Latin America.  They have announced appearances at festivals such as Punk Rock Bowling\, Zwaarte Kross\, Rebellion\, Punk Rock Holiday with many more to come

SUMMARY:The Greyboy Allstars
DESCRIPTION:For over three decades\, The Greyboy Allstars have been a cornerstone of American groove music—merging jazz\, soul\, and funk with the swagger of hip-hop and the improvisational freedom of the avant-garde. Since their early days in the 1990s San Diego scene\, the Allstars have created a sound all their own: West Coast Boogaloo\, named after their landmark debut album with funk icon Fred Wesley. That record\, West Coast Boogaloo (1994)\, was a defining statement—deep\, danceable\, and drenched in soul—and helped spark the West Coast’s acid jazz and funk revival. Their follow-up\, A Town Called Earth\, expanded the band’s scope\, layering cosmic jazz influences and cinematic textures onto their already formidable funk foundation. Both albums remain touchstones of modern groove music—sampled\, revered\, and referenced by DJs\, beatmakers\, and next-generation jazz artists the world over. \nYet The Greyboy Allstars have never been content to rest on legacy. In an era where jazz is being redefined by young innovators across London\, New York\, and Los Angeles\, the Allstars remain essential listening—a band that helped build the house and is still remodeling it from the inside. Their latest release\, Grab Bag: 2007–2023\, is a powerful reminder that this group is not only active\, but also evolving. A compilation of previously unreleased tracks\, deep cuts\, and left-field gems recorded over the past 15 years\, Grab Bag is both a treasure trove for longtime fans and a perfect entry point for new listeners. From tight rhythm workouts to spacey organ-fueled explorations\, the album proves that the band is as inspired and locked-in as ever—still funky\, still fearless\, and still pushing boundaries. \nEach member of The Greyboy Allstars brings a distinct voice and towering resume\, yet together they form a rare musical ecosystem built on trust\, taste\, and telepathy. Saxophonist and flutist Karl Denson is a relentless creative force whose fiery playing blends the soul-jazz tradition of Sonny Rollins with the raw funk of Maceo Parker. As the leader of his own Tiny Universe and longtime touring member of The Rolling Stones\, Denson has become one of the most recognizable horn players in modern music. Keyboardist Robert Walter\, a titan of the Hammond B3\, brings deep grooves\, lush harmonies\, and fearless improvisation. His solo records and collaborations have made him a cult favorite across funk and jazz scenes worldwide. Guitarist Michael Andrews\, also known as Elgin Park\, is the Allstars’ melodic anchor\, weaving tasteful lines inspired by Grant Green and Wes Montgomery. As a celebrated film composer (Donnie Darko\, Pharrel’s Piece by Piece)\, his work transcends genres—but his guitar voice in the band is unmistakable and vital. On bass\, Chris Stillwell delivers the unsung magic that makes the band swing—his lines are fluid\, funky\, and always in the pocket\, fusing Motown depth with California cool. Rounding out the rhythm section\, drummer Aaron Redfield brings nuance\, muscle\, and rhythmic command. Whether locking in a tight breakbeat or opening up the kit for sprawling jazz interplay\, Redfield is the heartbeat of the band’s evolving sound. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAs they continue to tour and record\, The Greyboy Allstars remain one of the most exciting live bands on the planet—schooled in tradition but never bound by it. Their music nods to legends like Ahmad Jamal\, Wayne Shorter\, Thelonious Monk\, and Eddie Harris\, while sounding utterly timeless and unmistakably their own. In a time when jazz is colliding with hip-hop\, Afrobeat\, psych\, and beat culture\, The Greyboy Allstars are not just relevant—they’re foundational. They’ve been laying bricks in this house since day one\, and their influence only grows deeper.

SUMMARY:Nailed Shut MA
DESCRIPTION:NAILED SHUT MA consistently brings a unique raw energy and thoughtful disorder to each and every performance\, delivering a sonic force that pushes New England’s hardcore/deathcore scene to the next level. With punishing yet unconventional vocals\, Asher Thomas creates depictions of bodily and psychological horror through lyricism centered around mental health awareness\, while the band reflects these themes musically through brutal riffs\, tight drum grooves and a gut-wrenching low end. Idioteq Alternative Music says the band’s sound “promises to be a surreal journey…delving into the darkest corners of the human experience.”  In 2023\, the band released their long awaited debut EP\, ‘LUST IN THE END’\, which they have since performed in many iconic venues across the northeast as well as 2024’s Inkcarceration Festival. The band has studied under David Marvuglio (Ice Nine Kills)\, Grammy award winner Paul T. Riddle (Marshall Tucker Band and The Allman Brothers Band)\, and has worked alongside Extreme Vocal Institute’s esteemed vocal coach David Benites.  They have shared the stage with inspiring bands such as All Shall Perish\, Acacia Strain\, Peeling Flesh\, Kaonashi\, and many more.

SUMMARY:Spiritual Cramp
DESCRIPTION:  \nSpiritual Cramp aren’t looking for a soapbox. The San Francisco-born punk experimentalists are here to flash a big smile\, flip you off\, deliver a burst of musical adrenaline\, and then keep on walking. “But at the same time\, that’s something that I’m working on\,” vocalist Michael Bingham knowingly grins. And on their upcoming sophomore album\, RUDE (due TK via Blue Grape Music)\, Spiritual Cramp discover a newfound balance between that impish cheekiness\, emotional vulnerability\, and rabid energy. “When you focus on yourself and the people around you\, you can keep your side of the street clean\,” Bingham says. “And when I see the opposite of that\, I get kind of offended\, which is what a lot of these songs are about.” \n  \nFrom the very first seconds of RUDE’s opening track “I’m an Anarchist”\, Spiritual Cramp make it clear what their side of the street is. The record is framed with the tuning of an FM dial and the voice of DJ Crash (played by percussionist Jose Luna)\, introducing Wild 87 Radio and the “San Francisco rude boy sound.” The fictitious radio station takes its name from the band’s original moniker prior to renaming themselves after a song by southern California rockers Christian Death\, and recurs on the album as a way to keep the band grounded in their SF roots. “My foundation is in San Francisco\, California\, and from there I can go anywhere and be who I am\,” Bingham says. The song that follows the radio intro similarly grounds listeners in the Spiritual Cramp musical language\, Bingham delivering tongue-in-cheek sloganeering (“I’m an anarchist\, so leave me alone”) over clap-along sunshine punk. \n  \nWhile Spiritual Cramp have perfected their kaleidoscopic take on rock over nearly a decade\, the gleeful RUDE marks the start of a new era for the band. Bingham and bassist Mike Fenton have been the band’s constants in that time—not to mention having worked on other projects together prior—and wrote the majority of Spiritual Cramp’s songs on their own across a series of lineup changes. But after a seemingly endless tour in support of their self-titled 2023 debut\, their new lineup of Bingham\, Fenton\, percussionist Luna\, guitarists Nate Punty and Orville Neeley III\, and drummer Julian Smith gelled to the point that the co-founders decided to bring everyone into the room for the writing process. “It really helped give color and energy to the whole record\,” Fenton says. The results are nothing short of ecstatic\, bounding between new wave burn\, indie rock swagger\, old-school punk\, and even dub and hip-hop flourishes. \n  \nThe thumping rhythm and chunky guitar riffs of album highlight “At My Funeral” showcase that evolved fusion\, as well as Bingham’s trademark self-deprecating sense of humor. “At my funeral/ Nobody came/ Everybody knew/ My shit was lame\,” he deadpans\, as Punty and Neely’s guitars ping-pong to each headphone. The following track\, “Automatic”\, utilizes similarly muscly\, Clash-indebted guitars\, though this time pairs a neon dance punk swagger with a Killers-esque soaring chorus.  \n  \nAnother major factor in RUDE’s amplified genre experimentation came in the studio\, with Spiritual Cramp working with a producer for the first time. After chatting with a few different potential collaborators\, the band were passed Grammy-winning producer John Congleton’s information. “I didn’t know if it would be a good fit. I’m a high-intensity guy and he seems pretty mellow\,” Bingham says. “I like working with other insane people\, but I learned he’s crazy in the studio. When we met he started talking about Stiff Little Fingers\, the Stranglers\, and Public Enemy\, and I know he’s done everything from indie rock to hip-hop. We’re basically a ‘70s punk band inspired by rap\, so it was a perfect match.” \n  \nThat collision is exemplified in the giddy\, DEVO-addled “Young Offenders”\, where pulsing electronics and a stuttery bridge underpin a fist-pumping punk chorus. “Expensive clothes/ Explosive fights/ There’s no better place everything will be just fine/ Just another warm San Francisco night/ Where everyday is the best day of my life\,” Bingham rahs\, like a sarcastic anthem for yuppie expansion. Throughout RUDE\, the tracks feel dense and lush\, though always full of light and life. “We got crazy in the studio this time\,” Fenton says. \n  \nPerhaps the wildest surprise\, though\, comes via guest vocals from a collaborator that might be unexpected for many listeners: Sharon Van Etten. Bingham and his wife became friends with the indie singer-songwriter after their move to Los Angeles\, and the unlikely pairing sounds absolutely fated on the slow-burning “You’ve Got My Number”. Bingham and Van Etten trade lines in the smoky verses\, building to a thunderous blend of staccato vocals and thumping percussion at the chorus. “You’ve got my number/ But you won’t call me\,” they sigh on the deftly heartbroken track\, before transforming some wordless “ba da ba” into the musical equivalent of putting on a brave face after a breakup. \n  \n“People sometimes think of us as ‘just’ a punk band\, but we love indie rock and were so honored Sharon would sing on one of our songs\,” Bingham says. “For whatever reason I thought a reggae song with a big rock chorus would be perfect for her\, and she sounds incredible.” And for the Spiritual Cramp singer\, it’s more than just vocal admiration. “I’ve always said I want to be the Sharon Van Etten of punk\,” he smiles. “She’s the coolest\, and it’s all about doing things thoughtfully and with integrity instead of being some famous celebrity.” \n  \nWhether it’s on the riotously fun self-loathing anthem “I Hate the Way That I Look” or the delightfully dubby “Violence in the Supermarket”\, it’s clear not only that Spiritual Cramp are following that honest artistic path\, but they’re doing so by constantly pushing the boundaries of their musical world. “Sometimes we’d write something and everyone in the room would think it was totally nuts\,” Fenton laughs. “And then we’d finish it\, and it was great to realize we weren’t crazy.” And while they continue evolving\, the witty\, fun-loving heart of Spiritual Cramp keeps the engine running. “As a band\, we have a cool thing that people like\, but we can always get better\,” Bingham says. “People who listen know where we stand\, and this record paints a picture of what it feels like to be in Spiritual Cramp.”

SUMMARY:Briscoe
DESCRIPTION:  \n \nIf Briscoe’s debut album was a coming-of-age soundtrack set against the backdrop of the Texas Hill Country\, then its follow-up\, Heat of July\, is the sound of a fully-formed duo chasing down a broader horizon. Inspired by marriage\, landscapes\, and the cross-country tours that took the band across America\, these new songs were written on the road\, as eclectic and evocative as the terrain that unfolded just outside the van’s windshield. Once again\, Briscoe teamed up with Grammy-nominated producer Brad Cook to bring the songs to life\, collaboratively creating a record that expands Briscoe’s folk-rock sound in all directions. There are bigger arrangements\, sharper vocal harmonies\, and enough top-tier guest musicians — including members of Houndmouth\, Hiss Golden Messenger\, Bon Iver\, Mipso\, and Watchhouse — to form their own supergroup. The result is a cinematic\, widescreen version of American roots music\, created by two lifelong friends who’ve learned to distill the thrill of the open road — and the challenges of growing up — into an ever-evolving soundtrack.

SUMMARY:Whethan
DESCRIPTION:For Whethan\, evolution happens in real-time. He doesn’t wait around or look back. Instead\, he forges ahead\, making the most of not only each song\, show\, and album\, but of every second\, minute\, hour\, and day. The gold-selling Chicago-based artist\, producer\, and remixer consistently canvases new creative territory from a place of pure curiosity. Committed to constant perpetual motion\, he never stops searching for peaks to summit and barriers to break. \n  \nOnce again\, he confidently pushes forward on a series of singles and his 2021 second full-length album for Atlantic Records. \n  \n“I’ve been in the electronic music community for a while\, but I’m really exploring now because I’m more comfortable with who I am\,” he reveals. “I’m growing up and experimenting at the same time. The music is exciting and real because of it. I want to keep evolving and reaching people who haven’t heard me.” \n  \nAt this point\, an awful lot of people have heard Whethan… \n  \nSince 2015\, he has quietly emerged as an influential and inescapable force in not only the electronic genre\, but popular music at large. Beyond tallying over 1 billion global streams and counting\, he notably became “the young artist ever on Australia’s Future Classics.”  He earned a gold single with “Good Nights” [feat. Mascolo] from 2018’s Life of a Wallflower\, Vol. 1 and notably collaborated with everyone from Dua Lipa\, Charli XCX\, and K.FLAY to Tom Morello of Rage Against The Machine\, Portugal. The Man\, Jeremih\, The Knocks\, and Wafia. During 2020\, he reached another high watermark with his debut album\, FANTASY.  It incited tastemaker applause courtesy of Billboard\, SPIN\, Earmilk\, Flaunt\, American Songwriter\, OnestoWatch\, Dancing Astronaut\, EDM.com\, ThisSongIsSick\, and more. Along the way\, he graced bills of marquee festivals such as Coachella\, Lollapalooza\, Outside Lands\, and Electric Daisy Carnival in addition to selling out a co-headliner at the legendary Red Rocks Amphitheatre and topping the lineup of MTV’s Snowglobe Music Festival. \n  \nAs he continued to create throughout the Global Pandemic\, advice from one of his heroes\, Skrillex\, echoed in the back of his mind. \n  \n“Skrillex told me you should make music for your inner child\,” he recalls. “That always stuck with me. It was a revelation. I want to always be excited about what I’m doing.” \n  \nAfter touring heavily for the last few years\, he maximized his time off the road. He produced five tracks on Oliver Tree’s critically acclaimed debut album\, Ugly Is Beautiful. Combing Soundcloud for music\, he immersed himself in the burgeoning hyperpop movement at the same time. \n  \n“After putting out FANTASY\, I took a break from my solo material\,” he elaborates. “I wanted to go outside of the box and work on all types of music. I knew doing that would lead me back to music as an artist.” \n  \nHis instincts proved correct. He reached out to rising hyperpop star Glaive and genre-bending ericdoa and cooked up the 2021 single “Think You Right.” On the track\, synths shift like tectonic plates underneath hypnotic vocal interplay. Meanwhile\, strings underscore a hook teeming with uncontainable energy. \n  \n“I was able to work with Glaive and ericdoa very naturally\,” he states. “I didn’t feel like I was sacrificing my sound or integrity. These guys were all about getting crazy with the production. They wanted me to be as Whethan as I could be. There was a ton of freedom\, so it’s a very special song to me. It’s a big moment. It’s pretty much what I want the next project to sound like. It absolutely set the tone.” \nWorking with the likes of Matt Ox\, midwxst\, Yeat\, Reocragun\, Slump6s\, and many more on tracks\, he continues to widen the scope of his sound. \n  \n“I hate doing the same thing twice\,” he affirms. “I love surprising people and keeping them on the edge of their seats. I want to make music that can be played for everyone on the biggest scale possible. I love synths\, crazy video game sounds\, and hard bass. Everything is a part of the next chapter.” \nIn the end\, this evolution services a higher calling for Whethan. \n  \n“When people hear my music\, I want them to party and dance\,” he leaves off. “I just hope they have a good time.”

SUMMARY:Amelia Day
DESCRIPTION:Amelia Day is a musical jack-of-all-trades. Standing at the intersection of folk\, rock\, and pop\, Day blends heartfelt storytelling\, raw delivery\, and unforgettable melodies into music that feels both fresh and familiar — like rediscovering an old favorite. A self-described writer before anything else\, her perceptive lyricism extends far beyond her 23 years\, with lines reminiscent of songwriting greats like Joni Mitchell and Paul Simon. As the Spokesman-Review notes\, Day has a signature style that features “wordplay\, double-meanings and rhythmic variations\,” with themes ranging from journeying into adulthood to climate change. Many of Day’s songs are also shaped by her intimate relationships\, where her queerness and candor take center stage. Day’s upcoming EP EGO TRIP is her most personal project yet. Lead single “Lady Los Angeles” traces the sting of betrayal after discovering infidelity\, while the rest of the EP takes listeners on an intimate journey through her grieving process. “The character of ‘Lady Los Angeles’ is representative of my ex’s obsession with attention and fame at all costs and my own fear of being seduced by those same temptations\,” Day explains. “It felt like she was having an affair\, not only with another person\, but with the often-self-aggrandizing culture of Los Angeles itself.”\n\nBorn and raised in the small town of Sumner\, Washington — the self-proclaimed “Rhubarb Pie Capital of the World” — Day has been drawn to music-making since she could walk. “I had no idea what I was doing\, but I had a toy ukulele and drum\, and my parents had an upright piano that I would mess around on\, ” she recalls. “I could spend hours just playing around on the keys\, making up little songs\, which my piano teacher recognized and encouraged.” By middle school\, Day was already writing her own songs “about myself and my (very angsty) preteen feelings.”\n\nOnce Day got to college\, she began performing her originals publicly\, though not without roadblocks. “I had horrible stage fright up until mid-college\,” she admits. Starting with farmers markets and local restaurants\, Day gradually built up the confidence and the following that would lead to sold-out shows in Seattle\, Boston\, and D.C.\, as well as festival appearances at Bumbershoot (“one of my favorite sets I’ve ever played…there was a line of people outside waiting to get in!”)\, Capitol Hill Block Party\, Folklife Festival\, and Seattle PrideFest — all on her own. “I’m proud of getting to this point as an artist completely solo\,” Day says.\n\nDay is proficient on guitar\, keys\, bass\, and drums\, often switching between instruments during her live performances. At other times\, she lets the music take over — stepping away from the instruments to simply sing and dance with mic in hand. She says she aims to “create an environment of complete presence and joy\, but also healthy catharsis of all the worst emotions.” As the Vanderbilt Hustler highlights\, her set is “energetic\, emotional and full of fun\, just like all of\nher music.” Fans often leave Day’s shows on a high\, blown away by her powerhouse vocals (drawing comparisons to Brandi Carlile\, Norah Jones\, Alanis Morissette\, and others)\, and charmed by the joy she exudes while onstage.\n\nAlready boasting over a million streams on a number of songs\, Amelia Day continues to prove herself as both a songwriter and performer\, emerging as a voice destined to resonate for years to come.
