SUMMARY:Codefendants w/ Heart & Lung and Skuff Micksun
DESCRIPTION:Codefendants w/ Heart & Lung and Skuff Micksun \nDoors 7 PM | Show 8 PM \nALL AGES \nat Grog Shop \nFat Mike of NOFX‘s newly launched project\, Codefendants\, are the breath of fresh air and the steel-toe-cap kick in the nuts music has needed for too long. Get Dead vocalist Sam King’s graffiti crew were giving tattoos and making flash art to raise money to help rapper Ceschi Ramos when he was in prison. Months later they met at the Gilman Street Project in Berkeley\, California. They bonded\, talking about their love of hip-hop and punk rock\, over a bottle of Jameson. They didn’t know it yet\, but they had just started Codefendants. Impossible to define by traditional standards\, Codefendants were forged out of a desire to make an album that sounded like nothing else; a completely genre-fluid album\, a cross between hip hop\, new-wave\, flamenco\, and the Beatles. They call the genre ‘Crime Wave’.

SUMMARY:Wine Lips w/ Mr. Phylzzz and The Rosies
DESCRIPTION:Wine Lips w/ Mr. Phylzzz and The Rosies \nDoors 7:30 PM | Show 8:30 PM \nALL AGES \nat Grog Shop \nIt’s been one hell of a wild ride for Wine Lips. \nOriginally formed in Toronto back in 2015 as a part-time project between Cam Hilborn (vox\, songwriter\, guitar) and drummer extraordinaire Aurora Evans\, Wine Lips quickly escalated into a full-blown\, full-time\, full-on international phenomenon. Their debut album took them across North America followed immediately by an intensive and unexpected tour of Hong Kong and China in 2018. They released their massive “Stressor” album the very next year (2019) to rave reviews and massive critical acclaim. Multiple tracks from Stressor charted across North America and Europe radio\, while several songs ended up being featured in broadcast and Netflix series. Endless touring ensued. \nThen 2020 happened. The band used their mandatory downtime to fully dedicate themselves to crafting their groundbreaking third full-length “Mushroom Death Sex Bummer Party” (recorded by Simon Larochette at Sugar Shack). The record was released in October 2021 and then shit really hit the fan. The international music press lost their collective minds\, penning over 250 glowing features and super positive reviews spanning 35+ countries. At the time of writing\, the album is rapidly approaching 20 Million spins on Spotify alone. The vinyl release of MDSBP is currently in its 7th pressing with 9 different colour variants. The lead track “Eyes” has been licensed to a metric ton of films\, series and video games including ABC’s The Rookie\, Hockey Night In Canada and VR Skater. Even more endless touring ensued\, except this time the venues were huge and mostly sold-out. \nWhich brings us to the new record… “Super Mega Ultra” is an absolute beast. Recorded by Simon Larochette at The Sugar Shack in Ontario\, the album is jam-packed with 12 ramped-up supersonic ear-scorching auditor delicacies. SMU is probably Wine Lips’ most ambitious undertaking to date\, exploring new thematic territory while firmly maintaining their signature psych garage punk rock panache. You truly need to hear the album to believe it… And if you haven’t already guessed\, more endless touring is booked for 2024. The wild ride continues!

SUMMARY:Florry
DESCRIPTION:Doors 7 PM | Show 8 PM \nALL AGES \nA far cry from the cool\, calculated distance and reserved posture that is all-too-familiar to the indie-rock sphere\, Florry\, the Philly-bred septet and songwriting vehicle of bandleader Francie Medosch\, are marking their territory as a band resolving to do something very different: they are having a really good time out there. \nCutting her teeth in the Philadelphia DIY scene starting in 2019 as a student at Temple University\, the early days of Florry found Medosch at the end of her teenage years releasing a slew of singles and EP’s in a familiar idiom of lo-fi bedroom recordings tinged with country melancholy. A lot has changed since then. Most importantly\, perhaps\, the project snowballed into a barn-burning seven piece rock band in the proceeding years; and without sacrificing any of the emotional immediacy that’s come to define Medosch’s brashly earnest\, bleeding-heart lyrical style\, you’re unlikely to find her lingering as much on the melancholy these days. Or\, as Medosch plainly puts it in regards to Sounds Like… \, the band’s forthcoming LP: \n“The Jackass theme song was actually a really big influence on the new album” \nThe release of their 2023 formal full-length debut The Holey Bible (via Dear Life) found Medosch now flanked by six bandmates and trafficking in a wider\, more rock-oriented approach with the bravado of someone with a new lease on life. With Jon Cox (Sadurn\, Son of Barb) on pedal steel\, John Murray on electric guitar\, Colin Dennen on bass\, Will Henrikson on fiddle\, Katya Malison (Doll Spirit Vessel) on Vox\, and Joey Sullivan (Bark Culturr) on drums\, Florry 2.0 had arrived. The retooled seven-piece embraced a lengthy run of tours dialing in their new kinetic sound and freewheeling chemistry including runs with Fust\, MJ Lenderman\, Greg Freeman\, and Real Estate. Greeted to critical acclaim upon its release\, with positive notices from outlets including Pitchfork\, Stereogum\, Paste\, and Brooklyn Vegan\, the album quickly introduced Florry to an expanded audience and pointed a way forward for Medosch and the band at a time when the future wasn’t so clear. \n“I had a job lined up selling insurance\, I guess I figured that was that\, you know?” \nAs it turns out\, that was not that. A few days went by\, and then the phone started ringing. From managers\, from booking agents\, from indie-rock elder statesman Kurt Vile\, who took the band on the road in support of his 2023 Back to Moon Beach LP. \nOn the winkingly titled Sounds Like… \, the band’s second full-length release via Dear Life\, Florry is picking up right where they left off in 2023. Again upping the ante with a bigger\, brighter\, more abrasive sound that resembles something closer to Rolling Thunder Revue-era Bob Dylan than their humble DIY roots. Across ten tracks\, the band wear their influences on their sleeve while carving out a space that is distinctly their own\, blending raw honky-tonk grit and rich instrumental textures with the disarming sincerity and intimacy of the group’s lo-fi beginnings. It’s a record about searching—searching for home\, for love\, for meaning\, and for a sound that captures it all.

SUMMARY:Acid Mother's Temple w/ The Macks
DESCRIPTION:Doors 7 PM | Show 8 PM \nALL AGES \nFormed in 1995 by Makoto Kawabata at the same time as the Acid Mothers Temple Soul Collective. The group released its debut album in 1997 on PSF Records (Japan)\, and it was selected as one of the year’s best albums in the The Wire magazine (UK). In 1998 the group played their first tours of the US and Europe. Since then the group has released a huge number of albums on labels from many different countries. As of 2017\, the group has released around 80 albums. Every year since 1998\, they have toured extensively in the US and Europe\, and more recently have started performing around Asia and in Japan too. The group has performed in collaboration with many musicians including psychedelic originators Gong and Guru Guru\, Simeon (Silver Apples)\, Nik Turner (Hawkwind)\, and the Occitanian trad singer Rosina de Peira. Japanese collaborators have included Afrirampo\, Tatsuya Yoshida (Ruins)\, Maso Yamazaki (Masonna)\, Seiichi Yamamoto (Boredoms)\, Jun Kuriyama (The Ox)\, and many others. \nTo begin with the group had a floating line-up with contributions from many members of the AMT Soul Collective. But as tours became more frequent\, the group began to coalesce around a core touring line-up. Other bands were created with Acid Mothers Temple as part of their name (AMT & The Cosmic Inferno\, AMT SWR\, AMT & The Space Paranoid\, AMT & Infinity Rising Zero\, Acid Mothers Gong\, Acid Mothers Guru Guru\, Acid Moon Temple\, etc.)\, but AMT & The Melting Paraiso U.F.O. has continued to function as the mothership and main lineage for all our activities. \nIn 2016\, twenty one years since the group’s founding\, there was a major shift in the line-up and “Next Generation” was added to the name. We now view the first twenty years as chapter one in our story\, and we are now turning the page to start chapter two. The group played more than 100 shows in each year\, toured in Europe\, North America\, South America\, Oceania and Asia\, also Japan. They also played many festivals (Glastonbury Festival in UK\, Levitation in US and France\, Rock In Opposition in France\, Standon Calling in UK\, Kuala Lumpur Experimental Film\, Video & Music Festival in Malaysia\, LUC fest 貴人散步音樂節 in Taiwan\, etc). \nDuring pandemic\, they launched their official Bandcamp\, have released more than 60 albums (including many unreleased materials)\, and have toured in Japan in each year. And they played the streaming festival “Levitation Sessions”. They organized “Acid Mothers Olympic 2021” against “Tokyo Olympics 2021”\, they originated and played a new style of “music sports”. Finally the group went to the first European tour in Autumn 2022 and North American tour in Spring and Autumn 2023\, after pandemic. 2024\, the group will tour in Europe in Spring and North America in Autumn. \nThe current touring line-up is: Kawabata Makoto\, Higashi Hiroshi\, Satoshima Nani\, Sawano Shozo and Jyonson Tsu since 2022.

SUMMARY:YĪN YĪN
DESCRIPTION:Doors 7 PM | Show 8 PM \nALL AGE \nYin Yin is a Southeast Asian psychedelia influenced band from Holland. Their newest release\, 2024’s “Mount Matsu” mixes Japanese instrumental folk and City Pop influence. Deeply informed by both the imaginative sound waves of the cosmos as well as the earthly musical culture of Japan\, Mount Matsu is the reflection of a chaotic environment of influences slowly coming into focus. Infectious\, strangely harmonious and highly energetic\, the record is also the first by the band that came into being as the result of a truly democratic process among four befriended musicians.

SUMMARY:Destroyer: Dan's Boogie Tour w/ Jennifer Castle
DESCRIPTION:MON Oct 6\, 2025 \nALL AGES \nDoors: 7 PM \nWhat is a “boogie”? In the common tongue\, it’s a dance or an occasion to dance\, a song or a shindig\, an incitement to move\, quickly\, whether it’s on the floor or out of town\, getting down or lying low. This being a Destroyer album and not the common tongue\, the implications of a title like Dan’s Boogie are at once more alluring and dangerous. “A boogie is a hustle\, a scam that doesn’t quite work\, the moves we make when we’re up against it\,” explains Dan Bejar (ex-New Pornographers). “I think of spy work\, double agents\, sleeping with one eye open\, an eye on the exits. But I also think of petty street-level victories and losses and improv.”

SUMMARY:Lene Lovich w/ Metrolight
DESCRIPTION:Doors 7 PM | Show 8 PM \nALL AGES \nLene Lovich\, the Post-Punk/New Wave icon who could count John Lennon and Frank Zappa among her fans\, is set to return to the United States for the first time in 18 years this fall. She will undertake her first full North American tour in 35 years\, playing 25 shows across the country beginning in Des Moines on September 16th. \nBorn in Detroit\, Lene and her mother relocated to the city of Hull in northern England when Lene was 12 years old. Inspired by the music of her hometown as well as the flamboyant “British Invasion” sounds coming out of swinging London in the 1960s. She had a particular fondness for fellow American expat Jimi Hendrix\, and recalled that although she had no money for the bus fare and was too young to legally attend the concert\, when Hendrix played in Hull she slipped out of the house and walked all the way across the city to sit outside the stage door and listen to him play. \nLovich moved to London in the mid-1970s just as the Sex Pistols were about to seize the nation by the proverbial throat\, forming a band with her partner Les Chappell\, and soon beginning to make a name for herself with her flamboyant style and effervescent live performances. She came to the attention of Oval Music moguls Charlie Gillett and Gordon Nelki\, whom had recently helped to launch the careers of Ian Dury and Elvis Costello\, taking Lene to the same independent record label\, Stiff Records\, that had been at the vanguard of punk and New Wave in the UK\, with debut releases from The Damned and Devo\, as well as the aforementioned Dury and Costello\, and Stiff Records house producer Nick Lowe. \nLene rocketed to the top of the UK charts with her second single on Stiff\, the unforgettable “Lucky Number”\, in 1979. The success of the single propelled her debut album Stateless to instant cult status\, where it remains to this day\, a classic of its time and hugely influential on the burgeoning 1980s post-punk Goth subculture. Lene’s second album\, Flex\, released in 1980 was arguably even more influential in the United States than Stateless. \nLene toured America successfully many times during the 80s\, and her band included Thomas Dolby on keyboards\, with whom she co-wrote her biggest selling US single “New Toy”. Her third album\, No Man’s Land\, released in 1982\, seemed poised to become her commercial breakthrough in America. Alas by then her relationship with Stiff had deteriorated. She released the album March in 1989 on the independent label Pathfinder Records\, and toured America one more time\, in 1990\, subsequently retreating from the limelight to raise a family in rural England. \nSporadic collaborations and extremely rare live appearances was all that was seen of her for many years\, until the release of the album Shadows and Dust in 2005. With her daughters now grown up\, Lene returned to regular live performances in 2012 when she and guitarist Jude Rawlins formed the Lene Lovich Band to take her classic material back on the road. The band garnered huge acclaim across the UK and Europe\, where they have toured consistently ever since. Finally\, in 2025\, America will get the chance to see what they’ve been missing for far too long\, the iconic and unique Lene Lovich at full volume.

SUMMARY:Dry Cleaning w/ Infinity Knives + Brian Ennals
DESCRIPTION:Doors 7 PM | Show 8 PM \nALL AGES \nAs soon as Dry Cleaning finished their debut album New Long Leg – critically acclaimed across the board and number four in the UK album charts – they immediately set about moving fowards. Having already started writing their second record before their first was released\, they proposed to producer John Parish that they spend twice as much time on the follow-up\, Stumpwork. \nListen to the album and you can feel that increased boldness – vocals which coil tightly around deft and complex riffs\, great meshes of instrumental texture and the willingness to launch into full-on abstraction. It is a heady mix that is entirely Dry Cleaning’s own\, distinguishing from their contemporaries. “We felt more confident\,” says guitarist Tom Dowse. “We could see the bigger picture and knew where to focus our energy more efficiently.”

Since releasing their first 7-inch in 1989\, Superchunk have run the gamut of milestone albums: early punk rock stompers\, polished mid-career masterpieces\, and adventurous curveballs. “Bruised Lung” finds them as vital as ever\, a scorching guitar anthem that at once recalls what has earned Superchunk their reverent following while looking forward to their future. “Bruised Lung” is elevated by Merge Records favorite Rosali on lead guitar and backing vocals. Catch Superchunk all over the country this fall.

SUMMARY:Brian Jonestown Massacre
DESCRIPTION:Tue Sep 16\, 2025 \nAges: All Ages\nDoors Open: 7:00 PM\n\n\nNamed in tribute to the legendary Rolling Stones guitarist and his influence in introducing Eastern culture and music into the world of Western rock & roll\, the Brian Jonestown Massacre formed in San Francisco\, CA\, in 1990. Some 40 different members passed through the group’s ranks over the next half-decade\, but their focal point always remained singer/guitarist Anton Newcombe\, who along with bassist Matt Hollywood\, guitarist Dean Taylor\, organist Mara Regal\, accordionist Dawn Thomas\, drummer Brian Glaze\, and “Spokesperson for the Revolution” Joel Gion\, recorded the Massacre’s 1995 shoegazer-influenced debut LP\, ‘Methodrone.’ A collection of early recordings\, ‘Spacegirl and Other Favorites\,’ followed on the band’s own Tangible label in early 1996\, and was the first of four Brian Jonestown Massacre LPs to appear that year. Next up was the brilliant\, ‘Their Satanic Majesties’ Second Request\,’ a full-blown homage to the Stones’ glorious psychedelic-era excesses. Recorded live in the studio\, the grittier ‘Take It from the Man!’ found the band exploring even broader territory. Finally\, the year ended with the release of ‘Thank God for Mental Illness\,’ a showcase for strong country and blues leanings. \nIn 1997\, the BJM — now consisting of Newcombe\, Hollywood\, Gion\, Taylor\, Peter Hayes and drummer Brad Artley — resurfaced with ‘Give It Back!’ After signing to TVT\, they released ‘Strung Out in Heaven’ the following year\, but the band’s own eccentricities kept them from staying on the label. After a few scattered EPs\, they resurfaced in 2001 with ‘Bravery\, Repetition and Noise\,’ distributed by Bomp. ‘And This Is Our Music’ followed in 2003. Despite a continued lack of major distribution\, the Brian Jonestown Massacre earned the largest profile of their career in 2004\, when the band became the unlikely focus of an award-winning documentary\, ‘DIG!\,’ which charted the trials of Newcombe and those of his rival\, Courtney Taylor\, leader of the Dandy Warhols. The ‘We Are the Radio’ EP followed in August 2005. \nThree years later\, Anton Newcombe reinvented the band as he had obtained all the releases of his past albums & formed his own label\, ‘a’ Recordings. His first new album on this label was ‘My Bloody Underground\,’ featuring yet another lineup and a hint of shoegaze and noise pop. ‘Who Killed Sgt Pepper?’ followed shortly after\, being made available in streaming format at the end of 2009 and receiving an official release on February 27th\, 2010.

SUMMARY:Molly Tuttle w/ Town Mountain\, Cecilia Castleman
DESCRIPTION:Doors 7 PM | Show 8 PM \nALL AGES \nOn the heels of two Grammy-winning albums in succession\, with her band Golden Highway—2022’s Crooked Tree and 2023’s City of Gold—plus a nomination for Best New Artist\, Molly Tuttle returns with a solo album that’s her most dazzling to date: So Long Little Miss Sunshine. \nRecorded in Nashville with producer Jay Joyce (Orville Peck\, Miranda Lambert\, Lainey Wilson\, Eric Church\, Cage the Elephant)\, the fifth full album from the California-born\, Nashville-based singer\, songwriter\, and virtuoso guitarist features twelve new songs—eleven originals and one highly unexpected cover of Icona Pop and Charli xcx’s “I Love It.” \nTuttle’s career\, which began at age fifteen\, has charted a course between honoring bluegrass and stretching its boundaries. On this album—a hybrid of pop\, country\, rock\, and flat-picking\, plus one murder ballad—she goes to a whole new place. Her stunning guitar work is more up-front on this album than ever before. (One of the most decorated female guitarist alive\, Tuttle was the first woman to win the prestigious International Bluegrass Music Award’s Guitar Player of the Year in 2017\, at age twenty-four\, and won again the following year\, with nominations nearly every year since; she has also won Americana Music Association’s Instrumentalist of the Year award.) So Long Little Miss Sunshine also features Tuttle playing banjo\, something she’s never done on one of her albums before. \n“I like to be a bit of a chameleon with my music\,” she says. “Keep people guessing and keep it full of surprises.” \nTuttle has been slowly building this collection of songs over the last five years\, while also writing and releasing two hugely successful albums and a six-song EP (last year’s Into the Wild) and playing more than 100 shows each year with Golden Highway. Along the way she’d send songs to Joyce\, who she first started talking to about collaborating on the album a few years ago. \n“I’ve been wanting to make this record for such a long time. Part of me was scared to do such a big departure\, and that went into the album title So Long Little Miss Sunshine. It’s like\, ‘You know what? I’m just not going to care what people think. I’m going to do what I want.’” \nThe album was recorded with a group of musicians that includes drummer/percussionists Jay Bellerose and Fred Eltringham\, bassist Byron House\, and Joyce on multiple instruments. Ketch Secor (Old Crow Medicine Show) also plays banjo\, fiddle\, and harmonica\, as well as singing harmony. \nTuttle also conceived the artwork for So Long Little Miss Sunshine\, which features multiple Mollys\, each wearing a different wig except for one with nothing on her head at all. (“I probably own as many wigs as I own guitars\,” she says.) Tuttle has been bald since she was three years old due to the autoimmune condition alopecia areata; she acts as a spokesperson for the National Alopecia Areata Foundation. \n“I love raising awareness\,” she says. “I talk about it onstage a lot and broaden it to include anyone who’s ever had something that makes them stick out and look or feel different from others. Playing my song ‘Crooked Tree’ live is very meaningful to me\, because it’s a moment where sometimes I’ll take off my wig and talk about my struggles with self-acceptance.” \nOne album track\, “Old Me (New Wig)\,” is “about leaving all these things behind that don’t serve you anymore\,” she says. “Parts of yourself that really aren’t in your best interest\, like low self-esteem\, anxieties\, and not feeling confident. Learning to own these different aspects of my personality but not letting them control me is another theme of the record that inspired the album title and the cover art. Those are all things I’ve struggled with through the years—just feeling like an impostor\, like I wasn’t good enough. I like singing this song because there are days when I still have to tell myself to leave that stuff behind.’” \nMost of the So Long Little Miss Sunshine songs were co-written with Secor\, who is also Tuttle’s partner. “We spend so much time together\, we live together\, and anytime I have a song idea\, or he has one\, it’s just so easy to transition from whatever we’re doing into writing a song.” \nAlthough they were written in different times and circumstances\, Tuttle found to her surprise that the songs were all tied together by interwoven themes. The opening track\, “Everything Burns”—a dark\, intense\, big-guitar song—was written in 2020\, during the chaos and division of the start of the Covid pandemic. It might as easily refer to the current chaos and division in America since Election Day 2024\, though. In fact\, they recorded it the day after the election. \nThere are several songs about traveling—sometimes down the open road\, like “Highway Knows” and “Oasis”—but also back in time\, as on “Easy” and “Golden State of Mind.” \nThe record also tells “a kind of coming-of-age story\,” Tuttle says. “‘Golden State of Mind’ is one of the songs I feel is a through-line to that. It makes me think about people I’ve been close to in the past that I’ve drifted away from\, and about growing up and figuring out who you are.” \nThat theme is in turn picked up in the beautiful ballad “No Regrets\,” one of the last songs Tuttle wrote for the album. “It’s about looking back on your life and thinking\, ‘Well\, maybe I could have done things differently\, but if I hadn’t made certain mistakes or gone down certain roads\, then I wouldn’t be here.’ And I really like where I am now!” \nSo Long Little Miss Sunshine closes\, as her last two albums did\, with an autobiographical song\, “Story of My So-Called Life.” “This is me looking back on my life\, from growing up to going to school in Boston to moving to Nashville to where I am now—taking stock of all these pivotal moments throughout my life that made me who I am. I feel like after I’ve said so much in all the other songs\, it’s just kind of nice to end it on a note of\, ‘Here’s how this all came to be\,’” she says. \n***** \nEarlier this year\, Tuttle played guitar and sang on Ringo Starr’s new country album\, Look Up. She also played with him and a host of other stellar musical guests at Nashville’s Ryman Auditorium and Grand Ole Opry as part of his televised Ringo & Friends shows. She was inspired by his fearlessness in following his passion for country music. “It is cool to see someone like that who has done everything you could imagine doing in a music career and he’s still just so psyched and still has a list of things that he wants to accomplish\,” Tuttle says. \nLooking back on her own career\, Tuttle admits that she also has pursued what interests her: “It has never been a cookie-cutter thing where I’m just going down a straight road. I always had this crooked path.”

SUMMARY:Whitney w/ Folk Bitch Trio - MOVED TO BEACHLAND!
DESCRIPTION:Doors 7 PM | Show 8 PM \nALL AGES \nRestlessness is at the heart of Whitney’s resonant and stunning sophomore album Forever Turned Around. As Julien Ehrlich and Max Kakacek realized over the past three years\, life can change drastically. Priorities shift\, relationships evolve\, home can become far away\, and even when luck momentarily works out\, there’s still that underlying search for something better. \nWhile the success of their 2016 debut Light Upon The Lake uprooted them away from Chicago to seemingly endless tours across the world\, Ehrlich’s and Kakacek’s partnership only strengthened. “Our friendship has kept us going even though so much has happened in the years since we started the band\,” says Ehrlich. Their bond has been the one constant as they’ve weathered the transitional period of their mid-twenties\, supporting each other through bouts of heartache\, loss\, and uncertainty. But lately\, as they’ve found home through themselves\, their romantic relationships\, and their friends\, there’s an uneasiness that comes from stability. When Ehrlich sings on “Valleys (My Love)\,” “There’s fire burning in the trees / Maybe life is the way it seems” it’s a mission statement of the existential questions raised throughout. \nThis is what Forever Turned Around grapples with: the anxiety and acceptance that time is limited. Across 10 songs\, Ehrlich and Kakacek skeptically yet masterfully navigate questions of mortality\, doubt\, love\, and friendship in a grander scope than they’ve attempted before. It’s an album about partnership — romantic\, familial and communal\, but most importantly a love in friendship: the bonds between two best friends and creative partners and the joy and stress that comes with it. As Ehrlich sings on “Used To Be Lonely:” ‘Well it made no sense at all / Until you came along.” It tackles the blissful confusion that comes from seeing the way things unexpectedly change over time.

SUMMARY:An Evening with Broncho
DESCRIPTION:Doors 7 PM | Show 8 PM \nALL AGES \nPrepare to be spellbound. Broncho’s fifth studio album\, Natural Pleasure\, doesn’t just flirt with greatness—it obliterates boundaries and redefines what an indie rock album can be. This is more than music; it’s an odyssey of sound\, a kaleidoscopic dreamscape where lo-fi textures collide with psychedelic wonder. Imagine Radiohead’s Kid A filtered through a haze of pot smoke and reimagined for a generation craving both grit and transcendence. This is an album meant to be savored with headphones\, a masterful contender for Indie Rock Album of the Year and a long-playing experience that invites listeners to lose themselves in its rich textures and hypnotic soundscapes. \nBroncho has always been synonymous with reinvention\, and Natural Pleasure marks their boldest transformation yet. This long-awaited follow-up to 2018’s Bad Behavior dives headfirst into lush\, hypnotic atmospheres without abandoning the raw\, gritty energy that made them a household name in indie rock. The Tulsa-based quartet—Ryan Lindsey (vocals)\, Ben King (guitar)\, Penny Pitchlynn (bass)\, and Nathan Price (drums)—has crafted a sound that’s as intimate as it is otherworldly\, blending introspection with euphoric release. \nSince their breakout hit “Class Historian” in 2014\, Broncho has been at the forefront of indie innovation\, earning accolades from legends like Josh Homme and Jack White. Their music\, equal parts gritty rock and dreamy psychedelia\, has found its way onto HBO’s Girls\, Apple’s Platonic\, and FX’s Reservation Dogs\, further cementing their status as cultural touchstones. But Tulsa remains their spiritual home\, a city whose musical lineage—from Leon Russell and JJ Cale to The Flaming Lips—infuses every note they play.

SUMMARY:Wild Rivers w/ verygently
DESCRIPTION:Doors 7 PM | Show 8 PM \nALL AGES \nPlatinum-selling indie trio Wild Rivers\, Khalid Yassein [guitar\, vocals\, keys]\, Devan Glover [vocals]\, and Andrew Oliver [lead guitar\, synths]\, have a gift for penning introspective lyrics and genre-fluid melodies that transmit wisdom beyond their years. That expertise can be found across their new album\, Better Now —a companion to their latest record\, Never Better\, released this past July. \nRecorded at the same time in Joshua Tree\, CA with producer Gabe Wax (known for his work with artists such as Soccer Mommy and Adrienne Lenker)\, both Never Better and Better Now are filled with the band’s “inventive melodies\, rich harmonies\, and lush instrumentals” (Associated Press) and reflect their personal and creative growth the past few years\, as they’ve faced burnout\, mental health challenges and the complicated\, confusing and unknown realities of life in their twenties. \nBorn in Canada\, Khalid\, who is half-Egyptian\, and Devan\, who spent her childhood in London\, England\, before returning to Canada\, first connected at Queen’s University in Kingston in 2013. Starting out as an acoustic singer-songwriter project\, Khalid and Devan expanded their aesthetic to a more full-bodied sound\, adding multi-instrumentalist Andrew\, whom Khalid calls their “Swiss army knife.” \nSonically\, Wild Rivers pull from a spectrum of sounds\, imbuing pop\, rock\, indie\, and folk into each song’s blueprint. Devan explains\, “We all converge on the classic songwriters. Paul Simon\, Joni Mitchell\, Neil Young\, Fleetwood Mac\, The Beatles and Elton John. Then today\, we have influences across the map\, indie\, hip hop\, R&B\, and pop. But even in those genres\, most of those artists are referencing another era of music\, which we think is really cool. We like to pull our favorite parts of every genre and patch them together and see what works and see what feels good.”
