SUMMARY:MIKE AND THE MOONPIES
DESCRIPTION: \nFor a band that regularly plays 250 shows a year\, there’s nothing like coming back home. \n     ‘One To Grow On\,’ the eighth studio album from Mike and the Moonpies\, is a musical homecoming that returns the group to its roots as a working man’s country band. Layered with Telecaster twang\, honky tonk harmonies and lyrics that highlight the Everyman’s struggle to remain optimistic during a 9-to-5 world\, this is organic music for dance halls and car stereos—a soundtrack for the mid-week blues\, shot through with weekend energy. \n\n     “I wanted to create a record you could crank loudly in your truck on Friday afternoon at quitting time\,” says frontman Mike Harmeier\, who wrote ‘One To Grow On’ in his backyard studio on the outskirts of Austin. “To do that\, I developed a narrative and a central character. It’s a guy who’s working hard to make ends meet\, all while living in the moment and hoping to stay appreciative of the things he has. A guy who takes pride in what he does but is still searching for a balance in his life. There are a lot of similarities between him and me. \n\n     “For more than a decade\, Harmeier and his band of hard-touring road warriors—pedal steel player Zach Moulton\, guitarist Catlin Rutherford\, bassist Omar Oyoque along with new drummer Taylor Englert —have traveled far beyond their Austin homeland\, flying the flag for homegrown Texas music in more than a dozen countries. They’ve become global ambassadors of a blue-collar country sound\, striking a balance between timeless influences and cool\, contemporary appeal. Along the way\, they’ve stretched their legs\, following the breakthrough success of 2018’s Steak Night at the Prairie Rose with records like 2019’s Cheap Silver & Solid Country Gold (an album inspired by the classic countrypolitan hits of the early 1970s\, recorded at Abbey Road Studios with help from the London Symphony Orchestra) and 2020’s Touch of You: The Lost Songs of Gary Stewart (a collection of nine unreleased songs written by the honky-tonk hero). \n\n     When the COVID-19 pandemic brought the Moonpies’ busy schedule to a halt\, Harmeier found himself back home in Austin\, inspired to return to the sound that had launched his band’s career. He didn’t need to look far for ideas. \n\n     “I have an old\, square-bodied Chevy pickup from 1985\,” he says. “My dad had the same one. I used to work with him as an electrician when I was younger\, and I started thinking about my dad\, my grandfather\, and the original owner of that truck. I thought about the kids I grew up with. Everyone I know who isn’t a musician is working construction.They’re putting one foot in front of the other and trying to appreciate the moment they’re in\, while basically working 24/7\, 365. A lot of people live their lives that way\, and they inspired me to write a working man’s story. \n\n     A working man himself\, Harmeier headed to his backyard studio\, where he used his free time to his advantage. He wrote. He revised. He sent ideas to his producer and bandmates\, who helped mold and modify the songs from their own home studios. What emerged was a sound that split the difference between 70s southern rock and 90s country\, with twin guitar leads and earthy storytelling. ‘One To Grow On’ took shape during those months of isolation—months that found all of the Moonpies collaborating remotely\, remaining active even while in quarantine. \n\n     “We’d never had that kind of time on our hands before\,” Harmeier remembers. ” I would develop the character as far as I could then send it to our producer [Adam Odor] for even more rewrites and then finally to the band for their input. They got to know the material long before we went into the studio. They got to know the album’s central character\, as well\, and they wrote instrumental parts to convey the consciousness of that guy. \n\n     “Co-produced with longtime collaborator Odor and recorded at Yellow Dog Studios in Wimberley\, Texas\, ‘One To Grow On’ kicks off with “Paycheck to Paycheck\,” an anthem for hardscrabble living. Driven forward by fiery fretwork\, breakneck tempos\, and vocal harmonies from Shiny Soul Sisters’ Alice Spencer and Kelley Mickwee\, the song serves as a primer for what’s to come—the wild west atmospherics of “Whose Side Are You On\,” the greasy funky-tonk of “The Vein\,” and everything in between. Shooter Jennings makes a pair of appearances\, playing synthesizer on songslike “Social Drinkers\,” while former Moonpie John Carbone returns to the fold to play keyboards throughout the album. Three members of fellow Texas-based outfit Quaker City Night Hawks join the band on “Burn Out\,” an autobiographical country-rocker that closes ‘One To Grow On’ by focusing not upon the character Harmeier has created\, but upon the narrator himself. \n\n     “I knew I was writing a character-driven record\, but I wasn’t sure who he was until we finished\,” says Harmeier. “He’sa bit of me\, a bit of my father\, and a bit of my friends. He’s the Everyman. He’s everyone I know\, and everyone I don’t know.” \n \n

SUMMARY:SHANE SMITH & THE SAINTS
DESCRIPTION: \nA native of Terrell\, Texas\, Shane Smith made music a full-time pursuit after moving to Austin. A passionate musician and songwriter\, Shane soon connected with Bennett Brown\, along with other musicians many of whom now make up The Saints. That group includes Bennett on fiddle\, Dustin Schaefer on lead guitar\, Chase Satterwhite on bass\, and Zach Stover on drums. \nWith a reputation as a high-energy live act with stunning four-part harmonies\, Smith follows in the footsteps of such Lone Star songsmiths as Chris Stapleton\, Ray Wylie Hubbard\, Hayes Carll\, and Ryan Bingham. Their first album\, Coast\, was released in 2013\, and two years later came Geronimo\, followed by Hail Mary in 2019. “I don’t like just throwing stuff out there. If I’m going to be singing about something every night\, I try to make it personal\, make it something I can really relate to\,” says Smith\, the band’s lyricist and primary songwriter. “I like to sing with conviction\, an honest conviction.” \nIt’s with this passion\, timing and intention that Shane offers up his newest studio recording\, “Hummingbird.” You may have heard about Shane Smith & The Saints from a friend who saw their amazing live show\, or from a playlist on your favorite streaming service. Perhaps you heard the cast of Yellowstone shout them out in Season Four or maybe you’re just hearing of them now. Whatever the case may be\, we hope you enjoy this latest single! \n \n

SUMMARY:ARLIE
DESCRIPTION: \nRising quickly from solo bedroom pop project to regional full-band sensation and finally to a major-label contract\, Nashville indie pop act Arlie offered a fusion of classic retro-pop melodies with bright\, thoroughly modern production on their 2018 debut EP\, Wait. Follow-up singles like “karma” and “crashing down” built anticipation for their full-length debut\, Break the Curse\, which appeared in 2022. \nArlie began life as the solo effort of singer\, songwriter\, producer\, and multi-instrumentalist Nathaniel Banks\, who started recording songs in his dorm room on the campus of Nashville’s Vanderbilt University. Wanting to try out some of the material on-stage\, Banks soon teamed up with fellow Vanderbilt student Carson Lystad (guitar)\, a friend from nearby Belmont University\, Adam Lochemes (drums)\, and a local multi-instrumentalist named Tyler Waters. Arlie had already made a name for themselves around campus and in the local D.I.Y. scene when their catchy debut single\, “big fat mouth\,” began climbing up the Hype Machine charts and putting up big streaming numbers in 2017. A second single\, “didya think\,” fared similarly well on streaming platforms\, and Arlie managed to lock down a deal with Atlantic Records. \nAfter a busy summer of touring in support of Rostam and making a Bonnaroo appearance\, Atlantic issued the group’s first EP\, Wait\, in September 2018. Over the next four years\, a succession of singles like “karma\,” “crashing down\,” and “sickk” led the charge toward Arlie’s full-length debut. Released in 2022 and featuring the aforementioned singles\, the self-produced Break the Curse built on both the sound and success of the band’s EP. \n \n

SUMMARY:THAT 1 GUY
DESCRIPTION: \nWith an extensive and amazing track record of unique and imaginative performances featuring his curious instrument and copious amounts of originality\, Mike Silverman\, a/k/a That1Guy\, has set himself apart as a true one-of-a-kind talent that rivals any other artist currently in the entertainment industry. Averaging 150-200 shows a year all over North America and Canada\, he has been a consistent favorite at such festivals as: Wakarusa\,Electric Forest\, Big Day out\, All Good Music Festival\, Bella\, High Sierra Music Festival\, Summer Meltdown\, Montreal Jazz Festival\, and many more. He was also the ʻTap Water Award’ winner at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival for best musical act. His legendary collaboration and multiple tours with Buckethead performing as The Frankenstein Brothers has further cemented his virtuoso story as a creative visionary. \n\nHis innovation continues to soar with his latest tour\, That1Guy & The Magic Pipe Present: An Evening of Musical Magical Wonder… The Likes of Which Ye Haven’t Yet Seen\, which kicked off in 2014. Along with his pioneering main instrument\, The Magic Pipe\, a monstrosity of metal\, strings\, and electronics\, he facilitates the dynamic live creation of music and magic in ways only That1Guy can conjure. You can also expect to see magic seamlessly integrated into the already clever performance. With the addition of magic in his live shows\, he haslegitimately achieved an all-inclusive audio/visual performance unlike anything experienced before. “So much of my music has miraculous qualities to it because it’s hard to tell what’s going on. There are lots of slights of hand and sonic misdirection. It feels like I was meant to do magic”. \n\nSilverman’s back-story is similar to many musicians that have come before him. He grew up a self-proclaimed music geek\, soaked in the influence of his jazz musician father\, and enrolled in San Francisco Conservatory of Music before joining the local jazz scene himself as a sought-after percussive bassist. This is where the similarities end though and where That1Guy truly began. “In my case\, being a bass player\, I just felt very restricted by the instrument itself\,” he says. “I’ve always wanted to sound different and have my own sound. I was headed that way on the bass\, but for me to fully realize what I was hearing in my head sonically I was going to have to do it my way”. His influential and innovative double bass style eventually evolved into what we see today as That1Guy and The Magic Pipe. \n\nAs his story continues to develop\, Billboard has famously noted\, “In the case of Mike Silverman’s slamming\, futuristic funk act… the normal rules of biology just don’t apply.” In addition\, Silverman also has new music and videos in the works for 2015 that will further validate his status as an industry trailblazer. “I like being my own person”\, he says. “I didn’t set out to be a weirdo\, but I’m starting to embrace it”. Ultimately\, his motivation can be encapsulated as this: “Human beings do our best work when we’re challenged and pushed up against the wall”. That1Guy goes on to further explain\, “By nature\, we’re hunters and gatherers\, spending each day looking for their next meal. It’s easy to be lazy when you don’t have to come up with something creative right away.” \n \n\n

SUMMARY:MAGIC BEANS
DESCRIPTION: \nDenver’s Magic Beans return with their third studio album\, Slice of Life\, a 14 song documentation of a year spent away from the familiar confines of the road. \nWhen the pandemic hit\, Magic Beans had dozens of shows cancelled\, so they hopped into their studio in Denver\, CO and started recording songs. Produced by Magic Beans – and Mastered by David Glasser (The Grateful Dead’s long time Mastering engineer) – Funk\, soul\, live electronica\, and even bluegrass music find their way into this songbook from 4 band members that each bring their own flavor to the project. The different feels in the double record coexist harmoniously as the listener is slowly ramped up throughout the record. By the time you hit the second vinyl\, the organic sounds of B3 organ and acoustic guitar give way to synths and drum sampling almost as if you’re descending into night. \nThe inspiration for the title “Slice of Life” is just that. A random and unplanned snapshot of the band in this time and place\, a self portrait done unknowingly. “Throughout our days as a traveling band\, we’ve encountered many a situation that is unexplainably surreal in its abnormality\, but at the same time indicative of the location\, culture\, and context we find ourselves. “A person partaking in an activity you didn’t know existed wearing an outfit you’ve only seen in a dream\, or a collision of occurrences just rare and unusual enough that you think you’re living in a simulation just to be in that place\, sounds of B3 organ and acoustic guitar give way to synths and drum sampling almost as if you’re descending into night. \nThe band’s rule was to have fun making music and the record reflects that. Even the home-made and hand-cut collages for the album artwork were created by the Beans’ tour manager and collaborator\, Austin Koontz. What you got here with “Slice of Life” is a good time and a reflection of Magic Beans love for creating art. As the world returns to some semblance of normal\, and Magic Beans hop back onto the road these songs will feature prominently in the sets from night to night\, but until then this album will serve as a small Slice of of the last year in the Life of Magic Beans. \n

SUMMARY:SUPERSUCKERS
DESCRIPTION: \nAt a time when many alternative rock bands were either filtering hard rock tropes through a filter of irony (such as Urge Overkill\, Big Chief\, and Redd Kross) or reworking them into grunge (like Soundgarden\, Pearl Jam\, or Stone Temple Pilots)\, the Supersuckers stood out as a band who approached their music with tongue firmly in cheek while still making it clear they loved arena-ready hard rock\, both for its absurdity and for its punch-to-the-gut power. Playing like they should be in a 20\,000-seat arena even when they were playing bars that held 200 people\, the Supersuckers sounded like the bastard sons of Foghat\, AC/DC\, and ZZ Top after being weaned on punk rock\, unafraid of massive guitar riffs\, outsized personalities\, or pledging allegiance to sex\, weed\, and Satan with a wink and a nudge. Rising to nationwide recognition while signed to Sub Pop\, they made their debut as a rather ordinary punk band with 1992’s The Smoke of Hell\, then dove head-first into speedy hard rock with 1994’s La Mano Cornuda and 1995’s The Sacrilicious Sounds of the Supersuckers; they then detoured into reefer-addled country with 1997’s Must’ve Been High. While their Sub Pop era contained most of their best work\, they were still capable of making their sound work in the studio\, particularly on 2003’s raucous Motherfuckers Be Trippin’ and 2008’s (relatively) thoughtful Get It Together. \nThe Supersuckers were formed in Tucson\, Arizona\, in 1988 by high school friends Eddie Spaghetti (born Edward Carlyle Daly III\, bass\, vocals)\, Ron Heathman (guitar)\, Dan “Thunder” Bolton (guitar)\, Dancing Eagle (born Dan Seigal\, drums)\, and Eric Martin (lead vocals). After playing the local scene for about a year under the name the Black Supersuckers (taken from a pornographic novel)\, the band moved to Seattle\, ostensibly in search of a climate more conducive to leather jackets. Martin left the band not long after\, and Eddie Spaghetti took his place on lead vocals. Shortening their name to the Supersuckers\, the band recorded singles for several indie labels\, including eMpTy\, Sympathy for the Record Industry\, and Lucky; these were collected on the eMpTy compilation The Songs All Sound the Same\, which became the band’s first CD release in 1992. That year\, they signed to Sub Pop and issued their proper debut album\, The Smoke of Hell\, which was produced by Jack Endino and featured cover art by renowned comic artist Daniel Clowes. Featuring one of the band’s best-known songs in “Coattail Rider\,” the record also spun off the single “Hell City\, Hell\,” whose B-side was a fan-favorite cover of Ice Cube‘s “Dead Homiez.” \nThe Supersuckers came into their own with their second album\, 1994’s La Mano Cornuda\, whose title translates as “the horned hand” (i.e.\, of Satan). It featured signature songs like “Creepy Jackalope Eye” and “She’s My Bitch\,” and is still regarded by many fans as the band’s best. Following its release\, Heathman temporarily left the group due to drug problems and was replaced by one-time Didjitsguitarist Rick Sims on their next album\, 1995’s The Sacrilicious Sounds of the Supersuckers. Produced by the Butthole Surfers‘ Paul Leary\, the album was noticeably different from the Supersuckers’ usual pedal-to-the-metal roar\, owing to Heathman‘s absence\, despite some worthy additions to the group’s catalog (like “Born with a Tail”). Fortunately\, Heathman made a full recovery and rejoined the band for 1997’s Must’ve Been High\, a full-fledged excursion into country music that even featured a guest appearance from Willie Nelson. It was released concurrently with a five-song EP that featured country maverick Steve Earle fronting the band. \nAfter issuing their country project\, the Supersuckers signed a major-label deal with Interscope. Unfortunately\, in the wake of some massive label mergers at the time\, Interscope underwent a restructuring and wound up dropping the band without ever releasing the straight-ahead rock & roll album they had recorded. Strongly disenchanted by the experience\, the Supersuckers landed on the small Twenty14.com label and finally recorded the proper follow-up to Sacrilicious\, recycling some of the material from their ill-fated Interscope debut. The result\, The Evil Powers of Rock ‘n’ Roll\, was released in late 1999\, and featured the band’s affectionate look back on their high school days in Tucson\, “Santa Rita High.” The same year\, Sub Pop issued a generous 27-track retrospective of the Supersuckers’ stay on the label\, How the Supersuckers Became the Greatest Rock and Roll Band in the World. After contributing two songs (including a collaboration with Pearl Jam‘s Eddie Vedder) to the benefit album Free the West Memphis 3 in 2000\, the group cut a split-LP with Electric Frankenstein in 2001. \nBurned by Interscope and seeking a permanent home\, the Supersuckers formed their own label\, Mid Fi\, in 2002\, and inaugurated it with a live document of their country phase\, Must’ve Been Live. A new\, hard-rocking studio album\, Motherfuckers Be Trippin’\, followed in 2003. After its release\, longtime drummer Dan Siegel left the group and was replaced by Mike Musburger. While tinkering with a new studio album\, the Supersuckers kept the Mid Fi release schedule full with a pair of archival live albums and a collection of singles and non-album material\, Devil’s Food. The Paid EP and Live at Bart’s CD Cellar & Record Shopfollowed in 2006. 2008 saw the release of Get It Together\, one of the band’s strongest and most thoughtful releases to date\, which also returned Dan Siegel to the lineup. The Supersuckers took a breather as Eddie Spaghetti released a pair of solo albums through Bloodshot Records\, and didn’t return until 2014\, when Steamhammer Records released the tough\, hard rock set Get the Hell\, which featured Spaghetti and Bolton joined by new members Metal Marty Chandler on guitar and Captain Von Streicher on drums. \nIn June 2015\, it was announced that Spaghetti had been diagnosed with Stage 3 oropharynx cancer\, which impacts the back of the throat\, close to the tongue and tonsils. Undaunted\, Spaghetti underwent surgery and radiation treatments\, and the Supersuckers were back with a new album in October 2015\, the country-leaning Holdin’ the Bag. The album debuted a new three-piece lineup of the Supersuckers\, with Bolton out of the band and Spaghetti\, Chandler\, and von Streicher still on board. The group were back in fighting shape for 2018’s Suck It\, which found the Supersuckers once again flying the flag for hard rock\, and they sounded even stronger on 2020’s Play That Rock N’ Roll\, which included a revved-up cover of Ernie K-Doe‘s R&B classic “A Certain Girl” as a bonus track. On August 18\, 2020\, the group revealed on social media that original guitarist Ron Heathman had died. \n \n

SUMMARY:STEVE HOFSTETTER
DESCRIPTION:Author\, columnist\, and comedian Steve Hofstetter is often called the hardest working man in show-business. With all due respect to the late James Brown.\n\nHofstetter’s national TV debut came on ESPN’s Quite Frankly\, where Stephen A. Smith yelled at him for three minutes. Hofstetter has also appeared on CBS’ “Late Late Show With Craig Ferguson”\, Showtime’s “White Boyz in the Hood”\, VH1’s “Countdown”\, Sundance’s “On the Road in America”\, and ABC’s “Barbara Walter’s Special”\, where he thankfully did not cry. He is the host and executive producer of “Laughs” on Fox networks\, where he only cries occasionally.\n\nOne of the top booked acts on the college circuit\, the original writer for collegehumor.com has also released six albums. Hofstetter has written humor columns for the New York Times\, SportsIllustrated.com\, and NHL.com\, where he publicly admitted to being a Ranger fan.\n\nAfter hosting Four Quotas on Sirius Satellite Radio for two seasons\, Hofstetter moved to broadcast radio\, and his Sports Minute (Or So) was syndicated on over 170 stations and in over 30 newspapers. Hofstetter’s second live comedy album (“Cure For the Cable Guy”) reached #20 on Billboard’s comedy charts. His third album (“Dark Side of the Room”) was the first ever pay-what-you-want” comedy album\, since people were going to steal it anyway. His fourth album consisted of an hour of 100% ad-libbed material\, which is\, frankly\, nuts. And his fifth album hit #1 on iTunes’ comedy charts\, which is also a bit nuts.\n\nHofstetter’s brutal tour schedule consists of over 100 colleges and dozens of clubs every year\, and is fueled by an immense online popularity\, tons of press\, and a Prius with great gas mileage. He reached 200\,000 friends on Facebook (still the world record)\, 400\,000 more on MySpace\, and high shelves in grocery stores.\n\nWhile Hofstetter’s live shows are routinely sold out\, he is best known for his writing\, first published at age 15\, mainly to impress girls. At 18\, he co-founded “Sports Jerk of the Week”\, an irreverent website featured by press like USA Today’s Baseball Weekly\, Sports Illustrated and CNN. And at 20\, Hofstetter took a year off of school to head up web content for the New York Yankees. The Yankees won the World Series that year\, which would have been wonderful if they hadn’t beaten Hofstetter’s Mets. Yes\, he’s also a Mets fan. Poor kid.\n\nWhile an undergraduate at Columbia University\, Hofstetter was a well-read columnist for the Columbia Daily Spectator and a voice of the Lions. After a summer writing for Maxim\, ESPN\, and Sports Illustrated for Kids\, Hofstetter syndicated his column in several newspapers.\n\nWithout his glasses\, Hofstetter also looks a great deal like Michael Rappaport.\n

SUMMARY:WEEDEATER
DESCRIPTION:WEEDEATER: \n \nWeedeater was born the mid-’90s\, in Wilmington\, NC\, originally taking shape as a side project of vocalist/bassist “Dixie” Dave Collins\, who was otherwise engaged with sludge metal cult favorites Buzzov*en at the time. However\, upon that band’s official demise in 1998\, Collins was free to concentrate his efforts on Weedeater\, which released two sludgecore albums to kick off the new millennium: 2001’s And Justice for Y’All and 2002’s Sixteen Tons\, both produced by stoner specialist Billy Anderson. Collins later decided to tour briefly as bass player for Bongzilla and also found time to lend his four strings to Wilmington neighbors\, Sourvein\, but continued to work with Weedeater guitarist Shep and drummer Keko\, touring relentlessly over the years\, with the likes of C.O.C. and Alabama Thunderpussy. Busy as he was\, Collins and co. finally got around to recording their third long-player\, God Luck and Good Speed\, which was release through Southern Lord in 2007. \nREBELMATIC: \n \nFirmly rooted in New York’s Punk and Hardcore ancestry\, Rebelmatic has self-sworn hip-hop purists\, moshing alongside skate punks. They’ve got the respect of the legion of hardcore kids stashed away in the wilds of Brooklyn and Long Island. They can cast a wide net\, with successful results because their personal brand of Brooklyn rock has more NY hard-knocks authenticity than most. Despite their NY pedigree the band’s sound is a trippy “what-if” game. More pointedly\, imagine The Doors making a hardcore album…except Jim Morrison isn’t a privileged college kid feigning otherwise\, but an offspring of the Corona slums…the wild mane now dreadlocks\, and the jazz organ abandoned in a vacant lot.\nGroup frontman\, Creature\, is a virtual General on New York’s alt-scene. His packed and sweaty Fire Your Boss and Coffee Grind showcases have acted as the true vanguard of alternative urban arts in recent years. A haven for those who are about the band…not the bandwagon. He’s single handedly created a scene that thrives outside the scope of the hipster dreamland…yet manages to flirt relentlessly with it…sizing it up for a cheap date. This is raw music for real people. Its unrelenting\, brutal and touching all at once. \n

SUMMARY:MUSTARD PLUG
DESCRIPTION: \nMustard Plug started out in 1991 in the punk clubs\, basements\, and dive bars of the Midwest\, playing punk-influenced ska music before most people in the U.S. had ever heard of ska. They embraced a DIY work ethic that had been ingrained in them growing up in the 1980s hardcore punk scene\, and applied it to everything they would ever do together as a band. Mustard Plug self-released their first cassette tape\, 1992’s Skapocalypse Now!\, and played constantly to earn enough money to record their first album\, 1994’s Big Daddy Multitude\, which was released on legendary NYC label Moon Records. With their newfound national distribution and exposure\, the band climbed into their van and performed their music for new fans across North America. \nFor their next album they enlisted their heroes\, the Descendents’ Bill Stevenson and Stephan Egerton\, to record their breakthrough ska-punk classic Evildoers Beware at The Blasting Room. After meeting the crew from Hopeless Records in the beer line at a Descendents show at the Whisky-A-Go-Go\, the band teamed up with the then-fledgling LA punk label to release the album to an eager and rapidly expanding fanbase. Released in 1997\, Evildoers Beware solidified the band’s own take on the genre\, combining the edginess of punk and the danceability of ska with sure fire melodic pop hooks. Through relentless touring and word of mouth\, Evildoers Beware sold over 150\,000 copies and solidified the band’s position within the burgeoning third wave ska scene. The band even flirted with commercial radio play with their cover of The Verve Pipe’s “The Freshman\,” but decided mainstream pop fame was not for them. They never shot a video or commercially released the song despite the radio buzz. \nDuring the first decade of the new millennium\, as the media’s focus on ska waned\, the band returned to the ska underground\, touring constantly and taking their explosive live show further afield to Europe\, Brazil\, and Japan. While many of their 90’s ska peers went on hiatus or moved from the genre\, Mustard Plug doubled down\, organizing the hugely successful Ska Is Dead tours from 2004-2009. In 2007 the band returned to The Blasting Room and released their darkest and most critically acclaimed record\, In Black and White. The 2010s brought more touring and playing higher profile festivals including Riotfest\, Back to the Beach\, Amnesia Rockfest\, The FEST\, Pouzza\, Groezrock\, and more. \nIn March 2020\, while touring Australia and watching the live music biz fall apart in front of their eyes\, it became apparent that COVID-19 would force the band to reluctantly take a 16-month hiatus. Stuck at home\, they workshopped material for a new album\, expected to drop in 2023. Returning to the stage in the fall of 2021\, Mustard Plug shared a newfound appreciation of live shows with their ska-starved fans. \nCurrently\, the band is back on the road\, riding a fresh wave of worldwide enthusiasm for ska\, teaming up with a new generation of ska bands\, and playing for fans old and new. They have now played over 1\,900 shows\, released 6 albums\, and celebrated 30 years of playing the music they love. \n

SUMMARY:POWERMAN 5000
DESCRIPTION: \nPOWERMAN 5000 began soon after founder and frontman Spider One dropped out of the prestigious School of the Museum of Fine Arts in Boston Massachusetts. “I loved painting” Spider recalls\, “but I figured I could do that when I was 80. I was spending all my time in the clubs of Boston\, like the Rat and the Channel. I was watching all of these great local bands and I wanted to be apart of that scene! So I dropped out of school without a clue but was determined to start a band.” \nAfter years of false starts and various incarnations\, Powerman 5000 eventually released it’s first EP\, TRUE FORCE\, in 1994 which quickly became a Boston rock favorite\, catapulting the band to the top of the local scene. “We were very different than everyone else. At the time Grunge was exploding and all the other bands where chasing that sound.” Spider explains\, “We had no interest. We were smashing together a bizarre mix of Rap\, Punk and Metal. We worked hard and killed it live and people noticed.” \nIn 1996\, PM5K followed up with their first full length\, THE BLOOD SPLAT RATING SYSTEM. That album\, along with the bands growing fan base and infamous live show led to a major label deal with DREAMWORKS RECORDS. Dreamworks released an extended and remixed version of The Blood Splat Rating System now titled MEGA! KUNG FU RADIO. The record went on to expand Powerman’s following to a national level and allowed them the opportunity to tour with rock heavy weights such as KORN\, MARILYN MANSON and KISS as well a slot on the first ever OZZFEST. \nAfter a year of non stop touring Powerman 5000 returned to the studio to record what would be the album to blast the band to new level of success. 1999s science fiction opus TONIGHT THE STARS REVOLT! would go on to sell 2 million copies and turn the band into MTV regulars and rock radio mainstays. Sold out headlining tours followed along with sharing stages with the likes of METALLICA\, PANTERA\, KID ROCK and others. \n“Tonight the Stars Revolt changed everything. We went from being this weird little band with a cult following to being this weird little band in rotation on MTV along side Christina Aguilera. It was all very strange.” Band members and label changes followed over the years. 2001s ANYONE FOR DOOMSDAY was shelved for what would become 2003s TRANSFORM (the final record for Dreamworks Records). “When Dreamworks went under and we were without a label it was a difficult time. Back then a record deal was very important and pretty much the only way to have major success. I won’t lie\, for a moment I thought that was it\, but I didn’t want to stop and was determined to not give up.” \nAfter the dust settled\, a stronger more DIY Powerman 5000 came back swinging with the punk influenced DESTROY WHAT YOU ENJOY (2006)\, the very spacey SOMEWHERE ON THE OTHER SIDE OF NOWHERE (2009)\, a collection of cover tunes called COPIES\, CLONES AND REPLICANTS (2011)\, BUILDERS OF THE FUTURE (2014)\, NEW WAVE (2017) and THE NOBLE ROT (2020). \nSpider sums up the bands long history this way\, “After all these years\, I feel like the band gets better with every record and tour. I’ve never lost the enthusiasm that I had from those early days and always want to treat each new album as if it’s our first. I’m not interested in the past\, just creating the future. A big\, loud\, crazy future!” \n \n

SUMMARY:DADDY'S BEEMER
DESCRIPTION: \nCharleston-based band Daddy’s Beemer (comprising lead vocalist/guitarist Brady Sklar\, multi-instrumentalist Dan Fetterolf\, bassist Wesley Heaton\, and newest addition\, drummer Payton Kutyla) formed in 2016 at Clemson University\, where they soon established their brand of dreamy\, buoyant indie rock. Influences from across the pond like Two Door Cinema Club\, The Kooks and The Cure mingled with the likes of REM and even Frank Ocean to form a left-field melting pot across their first EPs\, Daddy’s Beemer (2017) and Pucker (2018). Meanwhile\, they forged their identity on the road\, playing over 200 shows since their inception and heading as far afield as New York and SXSW\, all while building a rock-solid base in their home state of South Carolina. \nWhile their debut full-length\, 2020’s Denmark\, saw the band expand their recording capacity and flex their production muscles\, they now have their sights set on capturing the electric\, spontaneous energy of their live show as they record their upcoming second LP. -Mia Hughes \n

SUMMARY:COLD
DESCRIPTION: \nJacksonville\, Florida-based alternative metal outfit Cold started out by sharing the aesthetic of another Florida band\, Limp Bizkit. Both groups favored technically complex\, bleak\, and brutal metal that merged elements of Jane’s Addiction\, Metallica\, and Tool\, but Cold also embraced elements of shoegaze and soaring\, Snow Patrol-esque alternative rock. Bizkit frontman Fred Durst actually discovered Cold playing in the Jacksonville area and helped them sign to the A&M subsidiary Flip. Emerging in 1998\, the band caught fire in the early 2000s with the albums 13 Ways to Bleed on Stage(2000) and Year of the Spider (2003)\, both of which were certified Gold. Cold went on hiatus in 2006\, but re-formed a few years later as a touring entity. They returned to the studio in 2011 and released Superfiction\, another commercial success\, followed in 2019 by The Things We Can’t Stop. \nOriginally operating under the moniker Grundig\, and for a very short time as Diablo\, Cold coalesced in 1996 around a core line-up consisting of Scooter Ward (vocals\, guitar)\, Kelly Hayes (guitar)\, Jeremy Marshall (bass)\, and Sam McCandless (drums). The band caught the attention of Limp Bizkit bandleader Fred Durst\, who passed a pair of demos on to producer Ross Robinson\, who helmed the group’s eponymous debut album. Released via Durst‘s A&M Records imprint Flip\, Cold arrived in the summer of 1998\, and through constant touring the combo earned a devoted following both at home and across the country. They added a second guitarist\, Terry Balsalmo\, to the ranks for their sophomore effort. Released in 2000 via Geffen/Interscope\, which had absorbed A&M the year prior\, 13 Ways to Bleed on Stage became Cold’s breakthrough\, achieving Gold status via the mainstream rock hits “End of the World\,” “Just Got Wicked\,” and “No One.” Featuring their biggest hit to date\, “Stupid Girl\,” 2003’s Year of the Spider was even more successful\, debuting at number three on the Billboard Album charts and eventually taking the same golden path as its predecessor: the band sold over 100\,000 copies of the album in its first week of release. By this point\, Cold was moving steadily away from the Limp Bizkit model in favor of a moodier sound suggestive of contemporaries like Staind\, Fuel\, and Seether. \nDespite Year of the Spider doing well with rock fans\, Geffen soured on Cold in the midst of promotion for the album. Being dropped from the label led to internal strife. Guitarist Kelly Hayes departed\, guitarist Terry Balsamo left to join Evanescence\, and drummer Sam McCandless and vocalist Scooter Ward were left high and dry. Then a family member of Ward‘s became ill\, and the future of Cold looked bleak. However\, the band endured. They signed a new deal with Lava/Atlantic\, and issued the less aggressive and more melody-driven Different Kind of Pain in August 2005. By this point\, Cold’s lineup included Ward\, McCandless\, guitarists Matt Loughran and Mike Booth\, and bassist Jeremy Marshall. \nAfter the release of A Different Kind of Pain\, the group parted\, with Ward and McCandless launching a band that became the Killer and the Star. By the time the Killer and the Star released their debut album in 2009\, Cold’s original lineup had reunited. They mounted a tour in 2009\, then set about recording a new album\, Superfiction\, which was released in the summer of 2011 and quickly shot to the upper echelons of the Billboard Independent\, Alternative\, and Hard Rock Albums charts. Cold set up camp with Napalm Records for their sixth studio long-player\, 2019’s The Things We Can’t Stop. \n \n

SUMMARY:BROOKS NIELSEN
DESCRIPTION:Uncompromising\, enigmatic\, and wildly ambitious\, Brooks Nielsen (lead singer of Southern California surf-psych icons The Growlers) is proud to announce his first full-length solo album One Match Left: a double-vinyl\, twenty-song journey into the heart of darkness\, and toward the light that eventually remains.\n\n“There’s happiness in there\,” says Nielsen\, speaking from his Los Angeles home. “The bands that I like have a sense of humor\, like Television Personalities or Jonathan Richman\, but there’s tragedy too. That’s the old theatrical tradition.” One Match Left showcases these aspects in epic fashion\, with Nielsen playing the role of carnival barker\, lullaby crooner\, and rock & roll priest\, depending on the track. It’s actually Nielsen’s first time around without his partners from The Growlers; he’s now joined by old friends Christopher Darley (guitarist for Father John Misty) and Levi Prairie on songwriting duties.\n\nNo stranger to the emotional landscapes of modern pop life\, producer Michael Andrews expands the songs from the theatrical and into the cinematic. From his Elgin Park Recordings studio in Glendale\, Andrews makes chart-topping hits (like the song “Mad World” from his soundtrack to Donnie Darko) and cult favorites (he scored the entirety of Freaks & Geeks and Pete Davidson’s King of Staten Island). “He’s an encyclopedia and extremely talented\,” says Nielsen of Andrews. “Which meant he could be a great commander in the studio.”\n\nAssembling a core team of himself on guitar and bass\, Robert Walter (The Greyboy Allstars) on keys\, and Joey Waronker (Beck\, Atoms For Peace) on drums\, Andrews infuses the material with a lush palette\, more akin to Harry Nilsson and Serge Gainsbourg than anything we’ve heard before from Nielsen. Album opener “All That You’ll See is Everything” sets a carnivalesque tone\, a loopy and optimistic revelation about the songs that follow. “Virgin Lady Luck” alternately thunders and whispers\, a standout single that’s already turning heads on social media. “Long Train” channels Charanjit Singh’s Ten Ragas to a Disco Beat and West African jammers Tinariwen into a driving dance party. “How Do You Like It So Far (This Life)” attempts the impossible: thoughtful reggae pop\, free of beach bum clichés\, woven together into an atmospheric dub soundscape.\n\n“It’s all a bit of smoke and mirrors\,” says Nielsen\, speaking both of One Match Left in general\, and of the cover art made with photographer Pamela Littky (known for her surrealist ad campaigns for hit shows like Dave and Pam & Tommy). Nielsen as magician\, as clown\, as poetic trickster. Through the prism of time\, we’ll see One Match Left for the many things that it is: a reflection on the death of a relationship\, a public reckoning for a fan-favorite band\, a love letter to his wife (and mother of their three young children)\, a survey of global sound and vision\, and a daring step forward for one of contemporary music’s most essential voices\, Mr. Brooks Nielsen.\n\n\n \n\n

SUMMARY:ANVIL
DESCRIPTION: \nToronto\, Canada’s Anvil were one of the first North American bands to push the sound and style of the New Wave of British Heavy Metal one step further. Indebted to the likes of Judas Priest\, Iron Maiden\, and many others from across the Atlantic\, Anvil nonetheless played louder\, faster\, and heavier than their heroes\, in the process laying the groundwork for the thrash movement that took over heavy metal’s underground in the ’80s. Anvil’s second and third albums\, Metal on Metaland Forged in Fire\, made significant waves in the metal community in 1982 and 1983\, but despite the respect of musicians and metalheads alike\, stardom was not to be theirs. Geographic isolation\, label and management difficulties\, and shifting musical trends all conspired against them\, leaving them largely the province of cultists and collectors just a few short years later. Undaunted\, Anvil soldiered on\, continuing to record and tour whenever possible. In 2009\, a documentary film by the band’s former teenage roadie helped break them to the broader audience they never found in their prime. The tenacious metallers issued their 19th studio album\, Impact Is Imminent\, in 2022. \nAnvil were formed in Toronto in 1978 by childhood friends Steve “Lips” Kudlow (vocals/guitar) and Robb Reiner(drums). They had been playing music together since their teens. Initially known as Lips\, the band added bassist Ian Dickson and rhythm guitarist Dave Allison\, and in 1980 recorded an independent album titled Hard ‘n’ Heavy\, which introduced their penchant for sexual explicitness. Zany antics notwithstanding\, Anvil’s musical contributions were very real; their fastest songs were some of the earliest speed metal laid to wax\, while jazz-trained drummer Robb Reiner set new technical standards for the genre\, including pioneering the double bass drum technique that’s become a staple of much extreme metal since. Upon signing to the Canadian independent label Attic Records\, the band changed its name to Anvil\, and reissued Hard ‘n’ Heavy with an updated cover in 1981. Their groundbreaking second album\, Metal on Metal\, adopted a much faster\, heavier style\, and took the metal underground by storm. Anvil snagged opening slots on tours with the likes of Iron Maiden and Motörhead\, among others\, and played significant festival dates in Japan and England. The 1983 follow-up\, Forged in Fire\, refined Anvil’s signature sound while adding more musical variety\, and furthered their growing following \nAnvil’s success stopped right there\, though. Seeking a better stateside deal\, the band’s manager asked Attic to release them from their contract\, but a new label offer never materialized. While the band hung in limbo\, heavy metal exploded — a wave of hook-heavy pop-metal bands conquered the mainstream\, while avowed Anvil fans like Metallica\, Slayer\, and Anthrax (the latter of which started out playing Anvil covers) catapulted the genre into new realms of heaviness\, far beyond anything Anvil had ever recorded. Attic issued a collection of hits and outtakes called Backwaxed in 1985\, but the official follow-up to Forged in Fire\, Strength of Steel\, wasn’t released until four years later in 1987\, when the band licensed it to Metal Blade. Creatively disappointing\, Strength of Steel effectively killed what little momentum Anvil had left. They recovered somewhat on 1988’s heavier Pound for Pound\, which featured trademark sex songs like “Safe Sex” and “Toe Jam\,” as well as the hockey anthem “Blood on the Ice\,” but it was too late. Dave Allison left the band in 1989\, and was replaced by Sebastian Marino\, but not before the release of that year’s Past & Present: Live in Concert. \nMarino‘s only album with Anvil was 1991’s Worth the Weight\, a darker\, thrashier outing than anything they’d previously done. It\, too\, failed to catch on\, and was followed by a lengthy recording drought. Ian Dickson called it quits in 1993\, replaced by Mike Duncan; Marino left to join Overkillin 1995 and was replaced by Ivan Hurd\, while Duncandeparted a year later in favor of new bassist Glenn Five. Thus reconstituted\, Anvil signed with Canadian indie Hypnotic Records and issued the comeback album Plugged in Permanent in 1996\, which continued the heavy\, serious direction of its predecessor. Released in 1997\, Absolutely No Alternative returned to the band’s tradition of sex songs with offerings like “Show Me Your Tits” and “Hair Pie.” Speed of Sound appeared in 1999 and found Reiner experimenting with the blastbeat technique for which he’d helped lay the groundwork. However\, the band went with a somewhat lighter\, more classic metal style for its next several albums\, 2001’s Plenty of Power (which featured a tribute to “Pro Wrestling”)\, 2002’s Still Going Strong\, and 2004’s Back to Basics. \nIn 2005\, Anvil were contacted by a former roadie\, Sacha Gervasi\, whom they’d met as a teenager while touring England. Gervasi had grown up to become a screenwriter\, most notably penning the Steven Spielberg-directed The Terminal\, and wanted to film a documentary about his old friends. The result\, Anvil! The Story of Anvil\, chronicled Anvil’s efforts to tour Europe and to record their 13th album\, aptly titled This Is Thirteen\, which reunited them with their early-’80s producer Chris Tsangarides. Without a label\, Anvil opted to maximize profits by selling the album through their own website. Following Hurd‘s exit from the band\, the film became a hit on the festival circuit in 2008\, and was released in the U.K. in February 2009. Within two months\, it became the highest-grossing rock documentary in U.K. history\, and was quickly snapped up by VH1 for American distribution. Anvil! The Story of Anvil was released in the U.S. to glowing reviews in April 2009\, and the band supported it with live gigs at a series of screenings around the country. In 2010 a remastered\, re-release of 1989’s Past & Present arrived on Roadrunner\, followed in 2011 by Juggernaut of Justice. After nearly 35 years of rockin’\, the band’s 15th album\, Hope in Hell\, arrived in 2013. In 2016\, Anvil unleashed a new slab\, confidently titled Anvil Is Anvil. The album was recorded in Germany with producer Martin “Mattes” Pfeiffer\, and featured new bassist Chris Robertson. The band returned just two years later with their second record to feature Robertson on bass. Pounding the Pavement was once again recorded in Germany\, but this time with Jörg Uken (God Dethroned\, Dew-Scented). For their 18th album\, Anvil once again returned to Soundlodge Studios in Germany with Ukenand Pfeiffer mixing and producing. The resulting album\, Legal at Last\, was issued at the beginning of 2020 by AFM Records. Two years later\, the band issued their 19th long-player\, Impact Is Imminent. Worth the Weight-era guitarist Sebastian Marino died on January 1\, 2023 at the age of 57. \n

SUMMARY:THEO KATZMAN
DESCRIPTION: \n“Modern Johnny is a feeling\,” says Theo Katzman in regards to his third LP\, Modern Johnny Sings: Songs in the Age of Vibe. “He’s an archetypal character who represents the plight of the singer songwriter trying to make it in today’s music world.” \nModern Johnny is not an alter-ego\, per se\, but he and Katzman do have some striking similarities. Born in the mid-80s\, both were raised on the rubble of 90s rock radio\, the remains of their parents’ record collections\, a handful of ‘Greatest Hits’ CDs\, and several hard drives worth of mis-credited MP3s from Napster. Both left home for [INSERT BIG CITY] with a “songs-can-change-the-world” attitude. Both find themselves stumbling through the free market in the age of social\, the age of streaming… the Age of Vibe. \nAnd it’s a confusing climate out there. Billy Joel hasn’t released an album in nearly three decades\, Stevie Wonder is ranked 230th on Spotify\, and The Beatles are best known for their appearance in the XBOX video game Rock Band. \nTo be clear\, Modern Johnny isn’t necessarily what the kids are asking for: He’s too heart to be hip\, too hip to be pop\, too pop to be rock\, and too rock to be art. \nTOUGH SITCH. \nBut no matter the zeitgeist\, both Katzman and Johnny forge ahead the only way they know how: in pursuit of messy\, honest\, exuberant human emotion through popular song. The result is Modern Johnny Sings: Songs in the Age of Vibe. \n \n

SUMMARY:ARCHER OH
DESCRIPTION: \nArcher Oh is a new wave indie surf rock band from Moreno Valley\, California. Originally\, it was formed as a solo project in 2015 by Arturo “Archer” Medrano. As Medrano asked friends for help with percussions and guitar\, it evolved into a band with four members in 2017. The group was quick to enchant the Inland Empire with their garage rock sound and backyard concerts. \nThe band is composed of lead vocalist and guitarist Archer Medrano\, guitarist Diego Jacuinde\, bassist Juan Cabrera\, and drummer Pedro Hernandez. The group has charmed many followers not only with their feel-good music but also their positive attitudes and silly personalities. The band has toured with the indie rock band The Red Pears and has performed at the Teragram Ballroom alongside the Tijuana Panthers\, Tropa Magica\, and Not From England. \n \n  \n
