                                <description><![CDATA[Originally formed in Massachusetts by frontman Andrew Stevens and guitarist Jake Hogan, Silvertongue made the move to Portland, Oregon, where they met bassist Ethan Hansen and drummer Miles O&#8217;Donnell. Known for their high-energy, dynamic performances and infectious charisma, Silvertongue has earned a devoted following in the Pacific Northwest music scene and beyond. With a sound that began with folk influences, the band has since expanded to incorporate elements of pop and dance, creating a diverse catalog of adventurous, &#8220;Garden Indie&#8221; songs that blend the organic with the electrifying. Silvertongue performs across the country, playing shows and festivals coast to coast. They&#8217;ve shared the stage with artists such as Almost Monday, Krooked Kings, Sure Sure and Wild Party, continuing to grow their national presence with every performance. In 2025, the band released their highly anticipated third studio album, &#8220;Fossils&#8221;, recorded at Jackpot! Recording Studio in Portland, OR. The album was engineered and mixed by Zach Bloomstein (Modest Mouse, Portugal. The Man), promising to deliver their signature blend of vibrant energy and captivating storytelling. Portland&#8217;s own Bikini Drone brings intriguing blends of jammy psych-disco and funky spy pop to deliver extended musical meditations which span everything from New Wave to surfy desert rock. Pitted against a culture of anxiety and uncertainty the band&#8217;s heart remains centered in harmony with the soul and the natural world, a danceable antidote to these vibrant and troubled times. An infectious blend of trusting personalities ideally suited for on-stage exploration featuring songwriter singer Sloan Martin on guitar and keys, Gabriel Porter on bass, Dominik Schmidt on lead guitar, and Paul Conroy on drums. AUROCHS has cooked up a special sauce for the Portland music scene&#8212;one that&#8217;s equal parts sweet and sour. Quirky but catchy melodies float across angular riffs and polyrhythmic figures, creating the sensation of being hugged by a friendly rhinoceros&#8212;or perhaps the now extinct proto-bison which inspired the band&#8217;s name. Converging in Portland after contributing to music scenes as diverse as New York, Chicago, Nashville, and Guadalajara, the band&#8217;s five members inject their wide-ranging musical and cultural backgrounds into an indie rock sound that is weird but wonderful.]]></description>

                                <description><![CDATA[Jack &#38; Jack&#8217;s rise to success is rooted in the unbreakable bond between lifelong friends Jack Gilinsky and Jack Johnson. From viral sensations to Gold-certified artists, their journey has been defined by relentless passion, creative evolution, and a deep connection with their fans. After breaking free from major label deals, the duo made a triumphant return following a three-year hiatus, this time on their own terms. Before stepping away, Jack &#38; Jack were dominating the charts. Their hit single "No One Compares To You" has nearly 265 million Spotify streams and is certified GOLD by the RIAA. Their collaboration with Jonas Blue on "Rise" became a global smash, amassing over 900 million Spotify streams and 510 million YouTube views while topping UK radio and making waves on the U.S. Top 40. They&#8217;ve graced some of the biggest stages, from The Late Late Show with James Corden, The Today Show, and The Macy&#8217;s Thanksgiving Day Parade to the MTV VMAs, MTV EMAs, and BBC Teen Awards. Their impact has landed them in the Top 25 on Top 40 radio, Shazam&#8217;s Top 5 Greatest Gainers and earned them titles like YouTube Artist on the Rise and Elvis Duran&#8217;s Artist of the Month. Now entering a new musical chapter with their latest singles "Losing You" and "baby blue", the upcoming release of their album Symbiosis, a successful European tour, an upcoming U.S. tour and a renewed artistic vision, Jack &#38; Jack are proving that this new chapter is only the beginning.]]></description>

                                <description><![CDATA[Eternity Shrugs begins with an act of trespass. At a party, Helena Deland slips toward the edge of the room; no one sees her as she eyes a notebook which belongs to the party&#8217;s host. She insists she would never read it, then lets herself imagine being caught, only to learn that its owner had wanted to be discovered all along. The journal becomes a mirror of songwriting, private experience made public and placed in strangers&#8217; hands. Deland&#8217;s third solo album follows the electronic density of Someone New (2020) and the grief-shadowed folk of Goodnight Summerland (2023). Recorded in rural Quebec in bursts over four seasons, Eternity Shrugs was produced by Deland with longtime bandmates Francis Ledoux and Alexandre Larin, as well as musicians Lysandre M&#233;nard and Cedric Martel who have played with the band for years. Piano, bass, organ, Rhodes, viola, and woodwinds gather around her voice and guitar in patient arrangements anchored by finely textured percussion; the songs can feel spare one moment and subtly ornate the next. Near the record&#8217;s centre, the piano-lit &#8220;Room&#8221; blooms with an external voice addressing Deland in the second person, a returning motif that allows one of the album&#8217;s characters to speak back to its author. In &#8220;Great Dreams,&#8221; a meteor shower and an easy silence widen into cinema through 1960s-era strings and a bass line that glances toward Lee Hazlewood, while Montreal contemporary Cindy Lee flickers at the edge of the frame. Deland imagines the album&#8217;s palette in browns: wood, leather, smoke. Warm and inhabited, the music never entirely settles. &#8220;Where I Stand,&#8221; inspired by seeing Lucinda Williams perform at the Winnipeg Folk Festival, turns the infinite into a missed call: eternity spins Deland across an empty dance floor, then shrugs and hangs up. The closing &#8220;Here on the Page&#8221; returns to the furtive notebook, asking what becomes of experience if it is not written down, though with its slow and dirge-like gravity, suggests that even words committed to paper remain vulnerable to time. Deland leaves these private traces in public anyway, hoping to hold what is passing and to see who might meet her there. Eternity Shrugs is out with Chivi Chivi on January 22, 2027.]]></description>

                                <description><![CDATA[Sam Gendel and Sam Wilkes met at USC in Los Angeles and clicked immediately. Today they are two of the most prominent musicians on the red-hot LA scene. Their sound moves between lounge jazz, experimental minimalism, R&#38;B, and Dilla-inspired beat structures. You&#8217;ve heard their music in the works of artists like Mk.gee, Moses Sumney, and Mach-Hommy &#8211; here you&#8217;ll hear them in a deeply attuned duo format. Their first collaborative album, Music for Saxofone &#38; Bass Guitar (2018), was recorded live at two LA restaurants in Laurel Canyon and Silver Lake, background noise and all, straight to cassette. It has been described as an underground milestone in the jazz world and a &#8220;future classic&#8221; by In Sheep&#8217;s Clothing. On their latest duo record, The Doober (2024), they interpret songs by artists including Joni Mitchell, Judee Sill, and Sheryl Crow through their singular filter of electronic, floating, free-spirited jazz. Outside the duo, Gendel has co-written with Vampire Weekend and played alongside Laurie Anderson and Blake Mills, while Wilkes has collaborated with Chaka Khan, Dijon, and Dean Blunt. In duo format, their own ideas and chemistry take centre stage &#8211; saxophone and bass given room to breathe.]]></description>

                                <description><![CDATA[The Hugs push their alternative pop foundation into forward-thinking territory&#8212;blending classic song craft with subtle experimentation and modern production choices that feel distinctly 2026 without chasing indie trends.Portland, OR&#8211;based alternative pop band The Hugs return with&#160;Waking Up In The Future, their ninth full-length album, released June 5, 2026. The record finds the band expanding their brit pop-influenced alternative sound into something more reflective, cinematic, and forward-looking&#8212;balancing melodic immediacy with late-night introspection. Across nine tracks, Waking Up In The Future explores time, futuristic themes, romance, and quiet optimism (in an increasingly fast paced digital world), pairing warm guitar textures and hook-driven songwriting with subtle electronic elements, big drums, and lo-fi atmospheres. Songs shift effortlessly between intimate, late-night moments to expansive and cinematic passages. &#160; Brites is a Portland, Oregon based, art rock band with post-punk, folk, and electronic influences. Founded in the Flint, MI suburbs, Brites has been a consistent creative outlet for founding members Owen and Michelle Leman from producing their own records to animating music videos. Brites released their 10th album, Oversaturated, in September 2025 and most recently the single &#8220;Travelers.&#8221; &#160; Tradie writes mostly love songs or mostly songs about maintenance, depending on your perspective. Maintenance is about paying attention to the little changes in the things around you, and you can't convince me that's not the same thing as love. A friend said watching Tradie feels like when you got stung by a bee as a kid. I wouldn't know, I never got stung - I'd stay very still.]]></description>

                                <description><![CDATA[Over the past ten years, the mononym &#8220;Doss&#8221; has come to represent something increasingly rare in the world of dance music: not just a sound, but an ethos, a tension&#8212;a collage of disparate moods coalescing around a single idea. From her 2014 self-titled debut to her 2021 EP, 4 New Hit Songs, the cult-favorite producer, vocalist, and DJ has worked with everything from manic drum patterns and vocal contortions to blustery ambient and shoegaze. At once far-reaching and conceptually unified, Doss&#8217; artistic practice is best captured by her gnomic slogan: &#8220;It&#8217;s the music.&#8221; Don&#8217;t worry too much about trying to box it in. Raised in Texas and based in New York, Doss first appeared on the taste-making label Acephal&#233; before making her way to LuckyMe. Last year, by way of a wall-shaking single called &#8220;Jumpin,&#8221; she introduced the creative studio Duet. And though Doss has never shared much about her personal life, her design sensibility (marked by digital puppies, bubblegum pink vinyl editions, and nostalgic nods to the early internet) has always been a clear part of who she is. In her visuals, as in her music, Doss evokes the playful maximalism of the early 2000s with equal parts sincerity, humor, and mystery. An underground fixture, Doss has always had major fans in big-name artists. SOPHIE, in particular, was a frequent collaborator: they toured together in 2018 and teamed up for the legendary unreleased track &#8220;New York&#8217;s Burning Down&#8221; and a version of &#8220;Whole New World&#8221;on the OIL OF EVERY PEARL&#8217;S UN-INSIDES NON-STOP REMIX ALBUM. Doss has spent thepast few years remixing tracks for artists like Lady Gaga, Caroline Polachek, AG Cook, and Eartheater, as well as putting out her own exclusive DJ mixes via Apple Music, NTS, and TripleJ. She&#8217;s also played shows with Porter Robinson, and toured with Polachek and Yves Tumor in between selling out her own shows in the US and abroad. CFCF (aka Mike Silver) is a Grammy-nominated and Polaris Prize-shortlisted electronic musician, producer and composer from Montreal, Canada. His first album, the diverse and disco-influenced &#8216;Continent&#8217; was released in 2009 to critical acclaim, with the Werner Herzog-inspired EP &#8216;The River&#8217; following on renowned imprint RVNG Intl. Two EP&#8217;s exploring modern classical music, &#8216;Exercises&#8217; and &#8216;Music for Objects&#8217;, explored our intangible relationship to the tangible, while his 2nd album &#8216;Outside&#8217; engaged with the adult-oriented rock of the 1980s. In 2015, CFCF released 2 albums within 2 weeks: &#8216;Radiance and Submission&#8217;, a subdued, folky ambient album, and &#8216;The Colours of Life&#8217;, a kitschy new age odyssey. In 2016, CFCF was nominated for a Grammy for his remix of Max Richter&#8217;s piece &#8220;Berlin by Overnight&#8221;. In 2017, CFCF collaborated with acclaimed pianist Jean-Michel Blais on the minimalist &#8216;Cascades&#8217; via Toronto label Arts &#38; Crafts. &#8216;Liquid Colours&#8217;, a spiritual sequel to &#8216;The Colours of Life&#8217; set within the consumerist pre-y2k world of the electronic music genres of jungle and new age, was released in 2019. In 2021, CFCF released &#8216;memoryland&#8217;, a deeper exploration into Y2K aesthetic and emotional turmoil, earning him accolades from Pitchfork and a slot on the 2021 Polaris Music Prize shortlist.]]></description>

His live show expands into an electric, high-energy set backed by a four-piece band. Horse laugh: We are two dead end kids in a dead end town, working dead end jobs, getting into dead end situations. In abandoned malls we frequent, writing our very deepest secrets on the walls. Our diet consists of ice cream and chicken sandwiches and we are fueled by our own childish delirium. We wear clothes that don't look right. Cut each other's hair. We watch football games for schools we don't go to and see the sun go down over the chemical plant. We feel bad for deers that get killed when they are too curious for their own good. Maybe they had someone who was waiting for them. We love to love and love everyone. &#160;]]></description>

                                <description><![CDATA[A familiar face to concertgoers, Terrian joined TobyMac's Diverse City band in&#160;2017. She was born and raised in Memphis, TN where she rooted herself in&#160;community and mentorship being part of AngelStreet Memphis, an organization&#160;that mentors girls through musical training in areas with limited artistic&#160;opportunities while empowering them to understand their value, discover their&#160;purpose, and become creative leaders. After signing with Gotee Records Terrian&#160;released multiple singles including the 2020 release &#8220;Let Love Lead&#8221; which was&#160;featured by Spotify in their Black Lives Matter playlist, where she was one of just&#160;two Christian &#38; Gospel artists to have their music included. In 2021, Terrian was&#160;named one of Pandora&#8217;s Artists to Watch prior to the release of her EP, Genesis of Terrian. The project included the song &#8220;I&#8217;m in Love&#8221; which was featured on an&#160;episode of CW&#8217;s All American: Homecoming.&#160;Earlier this year Terrian released her debut&#160;full-length album Give It Time.]]></description>

                                <description><![CDATA[As Romare, Archie Fairhurst&#8217;s working practice is rooted in collage, building vivid&#160;new forms out of existing material. Playful and immediate, but also deeply&#160;researched and compelling, his albums and performances reaching back to 2012&#160;unfurl as a patchwork of inspirations and obsessive lines of enquiry made up of a&#160;global panoply of source material.&#160; The clue is in the name &#8211; Fairhurst called himself Romare in tribute to Romare Bearden, the lauded American multi-disciplinary artist most renowned for his incisive collages. In Bearden&#8217;s process Fairhurst saw a way to approach the infinite pool of electronic music production, channelling his wealth of music knowledge into creating music from existing sonic material and bedding themes into his juxtapositions for a more considered approach to sampling. No music lover sticks on one sound their whole lives, and so naturally Fairhurst&#8217;s areas of focus have evolved over time from the breakout impact of his 2012 debut on Black Acre,&#160;Meditations On Afrocentrism, through a run of albums on Ninja Tune&#160;reaching up to 2020&#8217;s reflection on place and belonging, Home. Projections is a&#160;direct homage to Bearden&#8217;s work, and the Love Songs releases draw on the rich&#160;seam of romantic music as a jump-off point. Having lived a nomadic life himself&#160;growing up, his source material has moved around over time, but increasingly the&#160;sampling becomes more opaque and enmeshed within other instrumentation which&#160;rounds out the Romare sound. 2022&#8217;s Fantasy expands on that idea with a more&#160;abstract approach, folding elements from 1970s fantasy cinema into his distinctive&#160;strain of rhythmic, off-centre electronica and heralding the start of his own label, You&#160;See.&#160; For all the considered concepts and unusual arrangements, Romare&#8217;s music is dance music at heart, and it remains a natural transplant into the live and club environment. At times Fairhurst has pulled together a full line-up to render his music on stage &#8211; something of a call back to his roots playing guitar and drums in bands &#8211; but elsewhere he&#8217;s at home sequencing and arranging his music solo, re-moulding album material in the moment with the flexibility which dance music so often requires. Equally, he has DJ&#8217;d prolifically around the world with an omnivorous approach which serves as a logical extension of his studio craft, balancing hidden corners of historical investigation with the kinetic impulse of modern club music.]]></description>

Raised outside&#160;of Philadelphia, PA and now based near Phoenix, AZ, Ren&#233;e forged relationships with&#160;people across the political spectrum as a backpacker, both informing and enforcing their&#160;desire to write about what they believe in &#8211; from climate justice to calling out abuses of&#160;power. Across their discography, Ren&#233;e Christine speaks to the crises of a young&#160;generation that has been dealt a losing hand by its predecessors, but maintains hope&#160;for a better future. &#8220;I want to be bold in ways that my younger self could never imagine.&#8221; Their debut album is set to release fall 2026.]]></description>

Dominic Pizano, Joseph Barros, and Tarrek Abdel-Khaliq, and Issac Pech met in high school in San Jose, CA, and in 2017 began making music together in a 10x10 shed in Dom&#8217;s backyard&#8212;with no AC or heater and only stock plugins. From those humble beginnings, PTR learned to sing, write, produce, mix, and play instruments on all of their songs, aiming to be as in-house as possible to ensure independence and authenticity. &#160; Now back in San Jose, PTR has made a massive impact. Their breakout single, &#8220;Mariposa,&#8221; went viral in 2020, peaking at number one on the Billboard Indie chart, earning three certified gold records and one RIAA platinum record. PTR has headlined sold out tours across the globe allowing them to perform at over 18 countries. &#160; PTR&#8217;s members are majority second-generation immigrant Americans, Tarrek is Palestinian American, Jo is Filipino American, and Dom and Issac are Mexican American. Their music continues to honor their parents&#8217; sacrifices while embracing a bright, collaborative future. &#160; VIP Package is available for this show!

                                <description><![CDATA[Jeremiah Chiu is a synthesist in the broadest sense of the word&#8212;a craftsperson of the modular synth and other musical instruments and tools, as well as an artist, designer, and educator whose work continually brings disparate forms of knowledge into new relationships. While widely recognized for his versatile electronic music as a solo artist, textured recordings in a duo with violist Marta Sofia Honer, and the experimental quintet he co-leads, SML, Chiu has simultaneously maintained a practice as a graphic designer and visual artist, developing a practice attentive to both the structure of technological systems and the contingencies of liveness and emergence.&#160; For Chiu, visual thinking and musical thinking are not separate disciplines but different expressions of the same innate compositional sensibility. This point of view is born equally from his idiosyncratic sense of aesthetics and his capacity for a warm and porous exchange within a thriving community of creative collaborators that stretches between Chicago and Los Angeles.&#160; Rooted in Chicago's deeply interconnected experimental music community, his music has consistently developed through long-term collaborations and shared artistic inquiry. Following years of performing with groups including Icy Demons and Chandeliers and within the Shape Shoppe collective, Chiu emerged as a distinctive voice on the International Anthem label through a series of acclaimed recordings that include&#160;Recordings from the &#197;land Islands (2022) with Honer, his solo album In Electric Time (2023), The Closest Thing to Silence (2024) with Honer and the late Ariel Kalma, and his ongoing work with the exploratory ensemble SML&#8212;a group formed out of this thriving sense of kinship and its emergent possibilities, pointedly explored in the live moment. Alongside collaborators including Jeff Parker, Sam Prekop, Makaya McCraven, Josh Johnson, Marquis Hill, Booker Stardrum, Celia Hollander, Takako Minekawa, and many others, Chiu is one of the key bondbuilders within both Chicago and Los Angeles for a musical moment with momentum&#8212;one grounded less in genre than in attentive listening, improvisation, and a shared commitment to expanding the possibilities of composition. This interdependent community made him a natural fit for national tours with Mary Lattimore and M83.&#160; His musical output resonates beyond traditional venues and specifically in cultural institutions looking to animate their architecture and contexts with transformative sound. This affinity has led to unique happenings at LA Phil&#8217;s Noon to Midnight, The Getty Center, LACMA, Cincinnati Contemporary Art Center, The Chicago Cultural Center, and the Museum of Contemporary Art, Chicago, amongst others. A commission for the Getty Museum&#8217;s project&#160;PIANO-GRAPHS (2018) transformed words and graphic forms into a composition for the player piano, collapsing typography, image, mechanical technology, and sound into a work that treated the piano roll much like a photograph: a surface upon which time itself could be inscribed. This project anticipated Chiu's later experiments at Los Angeles's Vintage Synthesizer Museum, where he sequenced the museum's vast collection of synthesizers without the use of MIDI and recorded the resulting improvisations to analog tape. Across his work runs a sustained attentiveness to the unfolding natural world. Whether incorporating field recordings into albums, or through open-air live performance, or through his regular participation in LA's Living Earth series held in public parks, Chiu composes with environments as much as within them. Electronic systems become receptive to the contingencies of wind, birdsong, shifting acoustics, and time itself.]]></description>

                                <description><![CDATA[PLEASE NOTE THIS EVENT TAKES PLACE AT PROCESS - 5040 SE MILWAUKIE AVE IN PORTLAND - AND DOES NOT TAKE PLACE AT HOLOCENE. The purest approach produces the most authentic outcome. Amtrac favors a tactile assembly of alternative electronic music reliant on handcrafted nuance akin to that of a band. The Kentucky-born and Los Angeles-based artist, DJ, producer, remixer, multi-instrumentalist, and founder of&#160;Openers carefully fuses textures and styles into an unabridged, unfiltered, and undeniable sonic trip on his aptly titled second full-length, Oddyssey&#160;[Openers/RCA Records]. As such, he imparts a piece of himself on every moment -- from the production and composition to the vocals and performance. "The goal is for the music to feel pure," he affirms. "It's not like I'm cutting corners. I put a lot of time into creating a deliberate body of work. It's definitely for me first, and it tells a story." The story represents the culmination of a near nine-year journey since the release of his acclaimed 2011 debut,&#160;Came Along. The album elevated the Morehead, KY native -- born Caleb Cornett -- to the cutting edge of electronic music. In its wake, he amassed an acclaimed catalog of originals and remixes. Lending his touch to tunes by Two Door Cinema Club, Elderbrook, Sigur R&#243;s, and Chromatics,&#160;Pitchfork&#160;described his remixing as&#160;"epic-sounding." Among the originals, 2014's "Those Days" notably boasted vocals from Stevie Wonder and Marvin Gaye. Following the 2016 solo EP&#160;Lost In Motion, he reached a new plateau on the&#160;1987&#160;EP during 2017. Both "Never Lost" and "Piano Boy" put up over 6 million Spotify streams each as his total stream tally neared the 100 million mark. Along the way, he earned praise from&#160;Billboard,&#160;Mixmag,&#160;Revolt,&#160;Complex,&#160;i-D Magazine, and more in addition to gracing the stages of major festivals such as&#160;Ultra Music Festival,&#160;EDC Las Vegas,&#160;Osheaga Festival, and&#160;Holy Ship!, to name a few. Not to mention, he headlined shows on four continents. Launching Openers in 2017, he provided a home to tracks by Durante, Rick Trainor, Luces, and many others. Amidst this whirlwind, he continued to write music, working towards what would become&#160;Oddyssey. This time around, he nodded to a wider swath of influences. Inspired by filmmaker and composer John Carpenter of&#160;Halloween&#160;and&#160;Escape From New York&#160;fame, he further utilized outboard gear and incorporated synthesizer soundscapes as he built the framework of the record. He also sang on a total of four tracks. He teased the album by way of "Madness to Mayhem," which&#160;Billboard&#160;dubbed,&#160;"a song that seems to bridge the gap between his Came Along days and the moody blues of his present."&#160;Meanwhile, the first single "Between The Lines" illuminates an evolution. Above resounding piano, Amtrac's upbeat and uplifting production builds towards a hummable hook awash in a rush of fluttering neon synths and a driving beat.&#160; Renowned for his performances, the live show will integrate visuals as he plays synthesizers live and takes the microphone. "I want to do different things every show," he adds. "It's meant to be unique."]]></description>

                                <description><![CDATA[There is something volatile about Daine. Not chaotic for the sake of it, but combustible in the way only truly vulnerable artists can be. Emerging from Melbourne&#8217;s underground in the late 2010s, they have built a catalogue that fuses emo, electronic abrasion, celestial pop and digital hardcore into something both intimate and confrontational. It is music that feels diaristic yet widescreen, fragile yet deliberately weaponised. Daine first drew attention with early singles like Picking Flowers before solidifying their voice on the 2021 EP Salt, which went on to win the Music Victoria Award for Best Pop Release. Since then, each project has widened the frame. Shapeless Mixtape and 2025&#8217;s I Want The Light To Swallow Me Whole pushed their sound into darker, more cinematic territory, created alongside collaborators including Lonelyspeck and Darcy Baylis. The result is a body of work that moves easily between club intensity and confession booth honesty. International momentum followed naturally. Daine has performed sold out headline shows in Los Angeles and New York, toured Europe with yeule, played Tokyo, and supported artists including Charli XCX, 100 gecs, EDEN, Mallrat and Bring Me The Horizon. On stage, the songs rupture. Guitars swell, distortion bites, and crowds scream lyrics back with something close to devotion. It is less a performance than a collective purge. In late 2025, Daine released the double single Make It Right / I Run My Hands Thru It via Pack Records in the United States, the first signal of a larger body of work unfolding across 2026. They are currently recording their debut album in Los Angeles, continuing to expand a sound that has always thrived on contradiction, tenderness and abrasion sharing the same breath. As of early 2026, Daine reaches close to 300,000 monthly listeners on Spotify, with a rapidly growing international audience. Press support has been both local and global. NME called them &#8220;a future emo icon.&#8221; Pitchfork has highlighted the emotional intensity and genre fluidity of their music. The FADER positioned them as a defining voice within contemporary alternative culture, while The Guardian described their work as &#8220;healing and painful, like looking directly at a solar flare.&#8221; Across DAZED, i-D, Crack and DIY, Daine has been recognised not simply as a songwriter, but as an artist constructing a fully realised world. As an artist living with disability, including POTS and Autism, Daine also speaks openly about accessibility within live music and has been announced for Ability Fest, Australia&#8217;s fully inclusive and accessible music festival. Advocacy sits naturally alongside their practice, not as branding, but as lived experience. Entering 2026, Daine stands in that rare space where cult devotion begins to tip toward scale. The rooms are getting bigger. The songs are getting sharper. The emotional stakes remain intact. What started as bedroom confession now feels architectural. And through it all, Daine has resisted smoothing out the edges. They remain restless, self interrogating, and unmistakably their own. &#160;17 year-old Eilish Constance is already carving out a distinct lane in indie folk with her production, songwriting and featherlight vocals having caught the attention of rising artists like Baby Sosa, Nate Sib, The Hellp, and 2Hollis. Her latest release, 'Your funeral', produced with apob (Suki Waterhouse, Skullcrusher, Dora Jar), puts her emotionally astute songwriting on full display, chronicling the quiet fear of losing a brother to addiction written with emotional depth far beyond her years.&#160;]]></description>

                                <description><![CDATA[Madds Buckley has partnered with PLUS1 so that $1 per ticket goes to supporting Conscious Alliance&#8217;s mission to end hunger nationwide and feed families in need. In an increasingly artificial world, singer-songwriter&#160;Madds Buckley is staying undeniably human. An RIAA Gold-certified artist with more than 2 million monthly listeners, Buckley pairs clear vocals with unexpected melodies and a deep-rooted instinct for storytelling. Her music sits at a unique intersection: honest, accessible, and highly personal storytelling that often incorporates themes found in anime, video games, and narrative-driven media. Even at its most fantastical, her music never loses sight of what&#8217;s real.&#160; Following My Love Is Sick, Buckley continues to evolve with a new run of releases, including &#8220;Overboard,&#8221; &#8220;Concept Without Proof,&#8221; and &#8220;Human to You,&#8221; ahead of her forthcoming album Simple Binary and a Complex Phrase (out October 16). Expanding her sonic and thematic scope more than ever before, the album interrogates the artificial to get to the heart of what&#8217;s most real: loving, losing, and persevering through the pain.&#160; with support from Sparkbird&#160;]]></description>

                                <description><![CDATA[The new Lipp record blasts through lightyears of sounds and styles, connecting&#160;new school funk with vintage synth nostalgia.&#160;Blending loops and breaks with a pile of synths and drum machines the record&#160;pushes into new territory with advanced arrangements and cinematic textures.&#160;From long summer walks through NYC and early morning sessions in Paris cafes&#160;to stacks of Czech jazz from around the corner. This album is fueled by curiosity&#160;and audio experimentation as well a deep dive back into the influential sounds of&#160;Mo'Wax, Warp, and early Ninja Tune releases. This adventurous collection of beats feels both unmistakably Lipp and refreshingly evolved. Lipp has released music with Alpha Pup, Pretty Lights Music, his label Old Tacoma Records, and now Young Heavy Souls. Lipp's most recent record Viper Venom dropped in May of 2024. VV blends Lipp's classic old-school electro-funk vibes and high-fidelity future synth breaks.Lipp also comprises half of the band Lipphead with renowned NYC producer Blockhead.Whether he's in the studio, DJ booth, or behind a synth with his live band, If Lipp is making music he's at home and locked in. Jason Huber is a Nashville-based DJ, producer, and lifelong instigator of good trouble, known for nearly 20 years of open-format and house music sets that have powered festivals, clubs, bars, and more than a few late-night renegade pop-ups. Long before and well beyond his work with Cherub, Huber built his reputation behind the decks, blending genres with a precision that comes from living inside the craft rather than chasing trends. His parties have become their own mythology: unpredictable, high-energy gatherings where he treats every crowd the same way he treats his studio work, with curiosity, intention, and zero fear of pushing the moment somewhere new.]]></description>

                                <description><![CDATA[Born and raised in Connecticut, Jake Minch burst onto the scene in 2023 with his hit single &#8220;handgun,&#8221; racking up 1.3 million views on the song&#8217;s initial teaser and earning support from the likes of Noah Kahan, Lizzy McAlpine, Zach Bryan, Gracie Abrams and FLETCHER. Over the last few years, the 2for2 projects/Mercury Records artist has garnered a dedicated fanbase through his deeply personal lyrics on love, growing up, and grief. This past July, Minch released his highly anticipated debut album George, produced alongside acclaimed producer Tony Berg (Phoebe Bridgers, Taylor Swift). Written between Los Angeles and Connecticut, the 12-track project explores grief, guilt, and identity through the lens of Minch&#8217;s early twenties, capturing the angst and disorientation of leaving home with striking vulnerability. The album has received widespread acclaim from outlets including NPR Music, Stereogum, The Line of Best Fit and Ones to Watch, with TMRW Magazine declaring, &#8220;Jake Minch is Your Favorite Songwriter&#8217;s Songwriter,&#8221; while Holler calls the record a &#8220;Great American Novel&#8221; cut into pop songs. Minch has toured the world over, sharing stages with the likes of The Head and the Heart, Jeremy Zucker, Ben Abraham, Holly Humberstone, Grace Enger and Sadie Jean, and recently wrapped a successful two-part North American headline tour in support of George.]]></description>

                                <description><![CDATA[Evan Stanley and Nick Simmons have always been like family - they played together as&#160;babies. However it wasn't until December of 2024 that the two actually played together,&#160;musically, for the first time in what was supposed to be a one-off instagram reel. They were&#160;shocked by the immediate response, and the undeniable chemistry. In February of 2025, they tried writing together for the first time and Stanley Simmons was&#160;born. They recognized they had stumbled on something magical and set out to make the&#160;kind of record they had each always wanted to make, but never had the chance to. Having&#160;grown up together on the road with their fathers, Paul Stanley and Gene Simmons of Kiss,&#160;music was always a part of their lives. But the thought of collaborating with each other&#160;professionally just never crossed their minds until this last year. After hearing the first demo they recorded in their respective bedrooms, legendary&#160;producer Rob Cavallo (Green Day, Fleetwood Mac, Paramore, My Chemical Romance,&#160;Dave Matthews, etc.) immediately threw his weight behind the band and jumped at the&#160;chance to produce the debut full length record as well as manage the duo.&#160;Now, with a full length complete and released on August 28th, Stanley Simmons is on&#160;their first North American tour this fall.]]></description>

                                <description><![CDATA[Sassy 009 is the shape-shifting project from Oslo-based producer, songwriter and vocalist Sunniva Lindg&#229;rd. After finding early acclaim as a trio with 2017&#8217;s Do You Mind EP, Sassy 009 rebooted as a solo vehicle in 2019, later evolving into 2021&#8217;s sultry, bass-driven Heart Ego mixtape.&#160; But for Lindg&#229;rd, the forthcoming Dreamer+ is her true debut: a concept-driven album pieced together from nearly four years of studio effort, and an ambitious attempt to take complete control of her artistry. Steered by freshly distorted vocals and elements of grunge, shoegaze, &#8216;90s beatronica and gauzy hyperpop, the album is a record of self-discovery and self-effacement at once, studded with guest contributions from Blood Orange, BEA1991 and Yun&#232; Pinku.Dreamer+ is work of fiction at its core, a grim fairytale in which dreams and emotions are processed through a landscape of shapeshifting characters, dark forces and moral responsibilities. Sent on a mission to an abandoned town, Lindg&#229;rd is her own main character, hurled into a &#8220;magical but distorted dream-like world&#8221; after a fatal encounter: &#8220;Her love for Jakov is absurdly intertwined with his dying; no path could lead her away from it.&#8221; The album opens with &#8216;Butterflies&#8217;, a premonition of the rocky road that Dreamer+ is heading down: scorched breakbeats ripped apart by the revving of a motorbike and notes of Air, Yves Tumor and yeule. The pop-forward shoegazing of &#8216;Edges&#8217; gives way to slinky broken beats on &#8216;RIP Time and Thoughts&#8217;, lambent post-Tirzah R&#38;B on &#8216;Dreamer&#8217; and &#8216;90s alt-rock memories on &#8216;My Candle&#8217;. Dev Hynes wraps his instantly identifiable vocals around &#8216;Tell Me&#8217;, a grungy torch song led by Lindg&#229;rd&#8217;s Blood Orange-inspired guitar. Singer-songwriter BEA1991 adds a silky touch to &#8216;Sleepwalker&#8217;s Pendulum&#8217;, spookily providing the same harmonies that Lindg&#229;rd had originally imagined for the song. Irish dance diva Yun&#232; Pinku drops daisy-fresh vocals into &#8216;Mirrors&#8217;, as Lindg&#229;rd confronts a recurring dream where &#8220;you can't tell where the way out is &#8211; you just see different angles of yourself.&#8221;&#8216;Ruins of a Lost Memory&#8217; completes the journey by sampling a melancholy melody written by Lindg&#229;rd&#8217;s parents &#8211; both classically trained musicians &#8211; for a Eurovision Song Contest entry in the &#8216;90s. Coming at the end of an album about love, loss and mourning, it&#8217;s the final piece of the puzzle &#8211; &#8220;like the credits after the film ends,&#8221; she says.With her fantasy story as scaffolding, Lindg&#229;rd sets herself free as a songwriter, taking inspiration from the organic electronica of Gorillaz, the hazy moods of Boards of Canada, Nirvana&#8217;s grunge pop logic and even Lil Wayne&#8217;s deftly distorted vocals. Tackling recording from the ground up, she felt herself finally &#8220;stepping into that producer role,&#8221; imagining herself writing for a live band instead of &#8220;being lost in the chaos of 200 layers,&#8221; she laughs.&#160;Dreamer+ is an album Lindg&#229;rd has imagined for years. It has taken on many forms, shapes and sizes. Like those morphing silhouettes you see at nighttime, this distinctive body of work has been an ever-evolving assimilation of disciplines. Its final form is a crystalising constellation of connected works&#8212;a bricolage of thought, feeling, and creative desire. Each element offers a familiar entry point into the same underlying themes: identity, memory, and the shifting boundaries of self&#8212;where the dreamer is the only witness / only one who remembers. &#160; local support from Madi Gaines]]></description>
