SUMMARY:Lake Street Dive
DESCRIPTION:Lake Street Dive have pushed the possibilities of pop music as a unifying force\, not only through their eclectic sound—a boldly original cross-pollination of soul\, folk\, jazz\, classic pop\, and more—the five-piece’s all-embracing ethos has also made them a beloved live band known for building a potent connection among every crowd. In the making of their new album Good Together\, vocalist Rachael Price\, bassist/background vocalist Bridget Kearney\, drummer/background vocalist Mike Calabrese\, keyboardist/vocalist Akie Bermiss\, and guitarist/background vocalist James Cornelison reinforced the deep sense of purpose behind their output\, often turning their attention to the many factors driving us apart today (e.g.\, unchecked technological growth\, culturally imposed isolation\, the cult of relentless self-optimization). Born from a mindset they refer to as “joyful rebellion\,” Good Together arrives as a body of work both gloriously defiant and primed to inspire unbridled dancing and ecstatic singing-along.

SUMMARY:Dwight Yoakam
DESCRIPTION:Dwight Yoakam has sold more than 25 million albums worldwide\, and he is a 21-time nominated\, multiple GRAMMY Award winner. He has 12 gold albums and 9 platinum or multi-platinum albums\, with five of those albums topping Billboard’s Country Albums chart and another 14 landing in the Top 10. Nearly 40 of Yoakam’s singles have charted on Billboard\, with 14 peaking in the Top 10. Yoakam is a recipient of the Artist of the Year award from the Americana Music Association\, and BMI Country Music’s President’s Award\, the most prestigious award offered by the organizations. He was also inducted into the Nashville Songwriters Hall of Fame in the Songwriter/Artist category at the 49th anniversary Gala in 2019 in Nashville\, TN. \nYoakam’s self-curated SiriusXM channel\, titled Dwight Yoakam and The Bakersfield Beat ‘Where Country Went Mod’ launched in April of 2018. The channel celebrates the Bakersfield sound and those whom it has inspired. Guests have boasted the likes of Post Malone\, Lukas Nelson\, Beck\, Chris Hillman\, Jakob Dylan\, Mike Nesmith and Mickey Dolans\, Dave Alvin\, and Jackie DeShannon\, among others. \nIn 2016\, Yoakam released his bluegrass album Swimmin’ Pools\, Movie Stars… on Sugar Hill Records. Featuring a band of bluegrass luminaries\, this album boasts a collection of reinterpreted favorites from his catalogue\, as well as a cover of Prince’s “Purple Rain”. Produced by nine-time GRAMMY winner Gary Paczosa (Alison Krauss\, Dolly Parton)\, Jon Randall (songwriter of “Whiskey Lullaby”)\, and Yoakam himself\, and mixed by Chris Lord-Alge\, this album reflects the love for bluegrass music that Yoakam developed at an early age in Kentucky and that has inspired him for many years thereafter. In 2018\, Yoakam released two songs\, “Pretty Horses” and “Then Came Monday” (the latter written with Chris Stapleton). \nIn addition to his musical career\, Yoakam is a formidable film and television actor who has appeared in over 40 feature films\, including Sling Blade and Panic Room. In 2016\, he recurred in David E. Kelley’s Amazon series Goliath. Recently\, he appeared in director Steven Soderbergh’s film Logan Lucky with Channing Tatum and Daniel Craig. Yoakam is capable of seamlessly melting into his roles and impressively standing toe-to-toe with some of the world’s top thespians over the course of his storied and successful acting career\, including Jodie Foster\, Tommy Lee Jones\, Jared Leto\, Forest Whitaker and Matthew McConaughey.

SUMMARY:Rainbow Kitten Surprise - Love Hate Music Box Tour
DESCRIPTION:As if channeling another dimension where genres simply don’t exist\, Rainbow Kitten Surprise finds harmony in unpredictability – weaving together lyrical poetry\, hummable melodies\, and a rush of instrumental eccentricities. Now boasting over 2 billion global streams across platforms\, the band first began building their devoted fanbase with independent albums SEVEN + MARY(2013) and RKS (2015). The band’s breakout full-length debut for Elektra\, HOW TO: FRIEND\, LOVE\, FREEFALL\, arrived in April 2018. Produced by GRAMMY® Award-winner Jay Joyce (Cage The Elephant\, Lainey Wilson)\, the album featured RIAA-certified Platinum single “It’s Called: Freefall\,” earned widespread praise from Billboard\, TIME\, Vice\, and NPR who described their sound as “…a mix of jam and indie and whatever else you can throw into the soup…very earnest\, beautiful\, political\, loving rock n’ roll\,” and saw the band make several national television appearances\, including performances on “CBS Saturday Morning\,” “The Late Show with Stephen Colbert\,” and PBS’s “Austin City Limits.” After gracing the bills of Bonnaroo\, Lollapalooza\, and Osheaga\, to name a few\, RKS moved 80\,000 tickets of their own on the sold-out 2018/2019 Friend\, Love\, Freefall Tour. That tour was earmarked by a sold-out debut at Red Rocks Amphitheatre and three consecutive gigs in Athens\, GA (the latter of which were chronicled on their first official live album\, LIVE FROM ATHENS GEORGIA\, released in 2021). \nThe band released a two-track single Mary (B-Sides) in May 2019 – consisting of “Heart” and “No Vacancy.” The following year brought the release of standalone single “Our Song” – already a fan favorite in their live rotation prior to release – as well as a livestream concert in July\, held for thousands of fans on what would’ve been the date of another sold-out Red Rocks performance (cancelled due to the COVID-19 pandemic). In March 2022\, the band released the emotionally charged track “Work Out\,” marking their first new music in nearly two years. \n2022 also saw the band set out on their first full headline trek in nearly 3 years\, a run that included their long-awaited\, sold-out\, two-night return to Red Rocks. And in 2022 alone\, with the help of partners PLUS1 and Propeller\, Rainbow Kitten Surprise raised over $170k for food banks in local tour markets\, LGBTQ+ causes\, and mental health initiatives. \nRainbow Kitten Surprise is: Ela Melo (she/her; lead vocals)\, Darrick “Bozzy” Keller (he/him; guitar\, vocals)\, Ethan Goodpaster (he/him; lead guitar\, vocals)\, Jess Haney (he/him; drums)

SUMMARY:The Avett Brothers
