SUMMARY:Jake Worthington
DESCRIPTION:For Big Loud Texas traditionalist Jake Worthington\, country music is in his DNA. The La Porte\, Texas native was raised on his grandfather’s porch performances of Ray Price\, Merle Haggard and George Jones\, and soon picked up his own Gibson acoustic to realize the breadth of his soon-to-be-classic\, wide\, and wild voice. Now\, Worthington breathes fresh life into dance halls\, beer joints\, and ballrooms from Texas to Tennessee with his growing catalog – his sophomore album When I Write The Song is out now with Miranda Lambert collaboration “Hello Shitty Day\,” “I’m The One (feat. Marty Stuart)\,” viral “It Ain’t The Whiskey” and more. Captivating the masses with his honky-tonk stylings\, the singer-songwriter hits the road this fall joining Zach Top as direct support on all dates of the Cold Beer & Country Music Tour followed by supporting slots on Jon Pardi’s Honkytonk Hollywood Tour. “I believe in country music as much as I believe in my next breath\,” Worthington declares\, and “blame it on my raising\, but I think there ought to be room for country in country music.”

SUMMARY:Son Little
DESCRIPTION:Son Little\, praised by American Songwriter as “one of the best songwriters working today\,” conceived his latest album\, Like Neptune\, in a cabin overlooking the Delaware River in upstate New York. Trading in the existential dread permeating his previous work for unbridled joy and self-acceptance\, Son Little transmutes the chronic pain of self-doubt into a beautiful and freeing opus about overcoming generational trauma. Hailed by Afropunk as “a stunning statement of purpose\,” Like Neptune decorates the altar of the primordial blues and elevating the labor of healing to high art. “I’ve always felt as though I was making music because I had to\, something inside compelled me. Fueled me\,” Little shared. “This the first time in a long time I’m making music for the pure joy of creating.” Son Little and his band\, comprised of Little on vocals/guitar\, Steve McKie (drums)\, and DeShawn Alexander (keys/bass)\, will tour North America for the first time support of Like Neptune through November and December\nRead Less

SUMMARY:PawPaw Rod
DESCRIPTION:PawPaw Rod\, the Hawaii-born\, Oklahoma-raised rapper and singer\, discovered his passion for music and writing during his upbringing as a military brat. Moving frequently\, he found solace in the familiar sounds of his favorite records. When speaking on his artistry\, he explains that during his formative years in Norman\, OK\, “There was an absence of a dominant or regional sound\, especially for black artists. This afforded me the freedom to pull from everything\, crucially shaping my music today\, a credit I attribute to my childhood experiences of moving around various cultures and tribes.” PawPaw Rod grew up on a steady diet of Maxwell\, Prince\, The Gap Band\, and Bill Withers. He first caught the performance bug singing in church\, sharing that “ever since that first time singing on stage\, I knew I would forever be on a journey of chasing that feeling.” \nPawPaw Rod released his explosive debut single\, “HIT EM WHERE IT HURTS\,” in 2020\, seamlessly merging hip-hop\, 60s soul\, funk\, and alternative. \nAcross four EPs — A PawPaw Rod EP (2021)\, Another PawPaw Rod EP (2022)\, This Must Be a PawPaw EP (2023)\, and Doobie Mouth (2024) — Rod has cultivated a catalog that has now surpassed 200M streams and drawn critical praise from outlets like Complex\, FADER\, GQ\, Nylon\, and Rolling Stone. His 2024 project Doobie Mouth arrived ahead of his first North American headline tour. \nAs a live performer\, Rod has appeared on some of the biggest festival stages including Lollapalooza\, Lightning in a Bottle\, Austin City Limits\, and Coachella — where he joined Neil Frances in 2024 and Polo & Pan in 2025. \nRod’s music has resonated across screens\, featured in shows like Netflix’s Outer Banks\, Apple TV+’s Platonic\, and HBO’s Insecure\, as well as major campaigns for Apple and Nike. In 2024\, he was one of the faces of GAP’s global “Give Your Gift” holiday campaign\, appearing in stores and on billboards worldwide. His music has also reached fans through syncs in MLB The Show and Fortnite Radio.

SUMMARY:Of Montreal
DESCRIPTION:On of Montreal’s seminal album The Sunlandic Twins\, songwriter and multi-instrumentalist Kevin Barnes followed up their 2004 Polyvinyl debut\, Satanic Panic in the Attic\, with what became the band’s most commercially successful album to date. Originally released in April 2005\, The Sunlandic Twins marked a significant turning point for Montreal\, showcasing Barnes’ evolving songwriting and a shift towards a more electronic and dance-oriented sound. The album’s vibrant blend of synth-pop and psych rock helped cement its status as a fan favorite and a defining moment in the band’s career. Iconic tracks like “Wraith Pinned to the Mist and Other Games” and “The Party’s Crashing Us” became some of the most beloved songs in the band’s extensive catalog.

SUMMARY:Ryan Davis & The Roadhouse Band
DESCRIPTION:New Threats from the Soul is a masterclass in reducing the sublime to the prosaic\, immensity to infinitesimally\, and vice versa (the trick can only work both ways). Everything in our universe is essentially flotsam or jetsam\, rubbish heaps of fragments and shards. We\, especially\, are jerry-rigs of bubblegum and driftwood\, inconsistencies and incoherencies\, dead dreams and necrophagous hopes. The record functions in parallel with Kafka’s winking dictum that there is an infinite amount of hope in the universe\, just not for us. New Threats suggests that maybe\, just maybe\, something like redemption is possible\, but only once we’re entirely emptied out and hawked in toto down at Walden Pawn.\n\nNext month\, the Roadhouse Band will play a handful of dates in the Midwest and South\, with a robust UK and EU tour to follow. Today’s newly announced dates will bring the band to additional cities in the South and Midwest\, as well as cities on the West Coast. A full list of dates is available below.\n\n“New Threats from the Soul [is] a beautiful and wildly smart record about making do in an upside-down world.” — Amanda Petsurich\, The New Yorker\n\n“If you don’t know it yet\, it’s my privilege to tell you that Ryan Davis is one of the greatest songwriters of his generation.” — Nathan Salsberg\n\nRead Less

SUMMARY:Greg Mendez
DESCRIPTION:Greg Mendez has always been an economical songwriter – he wields restraint and simplicity as tools\, the core of his songs sharpened into simple\, cutting truths. On Beauty Land\, his new album and debut LP for Dead Oceans\, we’re guided by a wry but forgiving narrator\, an underdog who has learned to balance cynicism and faith. These songs are self-effacing without self-pity\, carefully constructed altars of imperfection channeled through pop melodies\, shimmering but urgent guitars\, and a voice that reaches for choir boy innocence. \n  \nThe bulk of Beauty Land was recorded directly to tape\, almost entirely alone in Mendez’s makeshift home studio in Philadelphia – a small room with no natural light. It’s his first full length since his unexpected self-titled breakthrough in 2023\, which was a slow burn success following 15 years of writing and recording music in relative obscurity between Philly and New York. Beauty Land picks up where we left off three years ago – plumbing the depths of grief\, love\, and addiction – but its intense\, quiet clarity shows Mendez at his songwriting best.

SUMMARY:Bixby
DESCRIPTION:Bixby is a Los Angeles–based singer\, songwriter\, and producer blending shimmering alt-pop\, soaring falsettos\, and emotionally charged hooks. His breakout single endlessly caught the attention of Dylan Brady of 100 gecs\, leading to the release of his 2023 EP are you sleeping alone again? – a collection of sticky alt-pop anthems and intimate ballads – on Brady’s Atlantic Records imprint Dog Show. \nIn 2024\, Bixby released Distance\, a euphoric summer track with a Power Rangers–inspired music video. The song became his fastest-growing release\, topping a million streams in its first month and reaching #34 on Japan’s Shazam chart. He followed up with Desire (produced by Dylan Brady) and Darling He Lied (featuring Starfall) – a viral breakup ballad that sparked tens of thousands of TikTok videos across Southeast Asia. \nFollowing a pair of elevated R&B bangers with longtime collaborator Joshwa (whyy\, you know) in 2025\, Bixby began rolling out his most fully realized music yet. After crushing his debut performance at 88rising’s Head in the Clouds and a tour in Asia\, Bixby released Feel It on in early 2026 – the first single off his long awaited debut album. He will embark on a headline NA tour Summer 2026.

SUMMARY:Tortoise
DESCRIPTION:Simply put\, Tortoise has spent nearly 25 years making music that defies description. While the Chicago-based instrumental quintet has nodded to dub\, rock\, jazz\, electronica and minimalism throughout its revered and influential six-album discography\, the resulting sounds have always been distinctly\, even stubbornly\, their own. \nIt’s a fact that remains true on “The Catastrophist\,” Tortoise’s first studio album in nearly seven years. And it’s an album where moody\, synth-swept jams like the opening title track cozy up next to hypnotic\, bass-and-beat missives like “Shake Hands With Danger” and a downright strange cover of David Essex’s 1973 radio smash sung by U.S. Maple’s Todd Rittmann. Throughout\, the songs transcend expectations as often as they delight the eardrums. \nTortoise\, comprised of multi-instrumentalists Dan Bitney\, John Herndon\, Doug McCombs\, John McEntire and Jeff Parker\, has always thrived on sudden bursts of inspiration. And for “The Catastrophist\,” the spark came in 2010 when the group was commissioned by the City of Chicago to compose a suite of music rooted in its ties to the area’s noted jazz and improvised music communities.

SUMMARY:Jejune
DESCRIPTION:The San Diego via Boston alt trio that disappeared before most folks caught on. Jejune\, formed at Berklee College of Music in 1996 and relocating to San Diego\, spent years building a sound that owed as much to dream pop as it did to the emo scene they were part of. Male-female dual vocals\, guitars that shifted from jangly to blown-out\, songs that hit harder than anything around them at the time. Putting out two genre-defining records on Big Wheel Recreation\, Junk and This Afternoon’s Malady\, a split with Jimmy Eat World\, and then abruptly breaking up in the year 2000\, leaving the world to catch up. The world did. The records lived on in record collections and passed between fans like a secret worth keeping — and a younger generation found them just as hungry for it as anyone who was there the first time around. Now\, after a successful run through Japan on the Sakura Nights tour and some excellent record reissues courtesy of The Numero Group\, the emo indie rockers are back and touring the U.S. for the first time in over twenty-five years. All three original members. All the songs. No excuses to miss it.

SUMMARY:The Smiths Tribute (NYC)
DESCRIPTION:“Head back to the ʼ80s with the ultimate indie rock band…and jam out to a guy who acts and sounds just like Morrissey” – Thrillist \nThe Smiths Tribute NYC features former members of The Sons & Heirs\, who built an extensive following through sold-out shows from Tel Aviv to Austin to Los Angeles\, with press acclaim from the New York Times\, New Yorker\, WIRED\,  and Rolling Stone’s Rob Sheffield. \nThe band has shared the stage with many special guests including Morrissey’s long-time drummer Spencer Cobrin\, Doug Gillard (Guided By Voices\, Nada Surf) and late Smiths’ bassist Andy Rourke\, who remarked to a journalist “these guys love the band\, and they’re very passionate about it. \n“The way this singer captured everything about Morrissey was messing with my mind” – WIRED \n“Almost as good as the real thing!
