Intensely energetic live performances; lyrical vulnerability in a blend of ’90s alt country, roadhouse blues, rootsy power pop, and straightforward honky-tonk
“…a collection of songs that adds more momentum to her profile as a rising star on the Americana scene.”
-Chicago Sun-Times
“…a real jolt of adrenaline, fueled by the contrast between searing, resonant, rock-flavored leads and fills and classic honkytonk and bluegrass lines on an arsenal of instruments including banjo, fiddle and steel guitar.”

Brian Wilson, the Beach Boy’s chief song writer and resident savant, left the road and sequestered himself in his home. It was then, with advertising copywriter turned lyricist Tony Asher, that Brian wrote the bulk of the album we know as The Beach Boy’s “Pet Sounds”. “Pet Sounds” is a work of absolute genius that features Beach Boys classics “Wouldn’t It Be Nice”, “Sloop John B”, “God Only Knows”, and “Caroline No” and 9 others. The Listening Party begins at 7pm with a live audio & video presentation by Chuck Vosganian aka “Rochmon”. We’ll listen to “Pet Sounds.” on The Linda’s state of the art sound system.

Austin, TX’s resident rocker, Emily Wolfe transcends the ranks of ordinary musicians. Her creative songwriting keeps her fans aglow thanks to her strong, powerful lead vocals and dominating guitar style. Wolfe has shared stages with the likes of Heart, The Pretenders and Gary Clark Jr.
The second full-length from Emily Wolfe, Outlier, released June 25th, 2021 on Crows Feet Records, is an album built on exquisite tension: an endless push-and-pull between desire and resistance, determination and self-sabotage, the instinctive need to belong and the urge to strike out on your own. For help in channeling that complexity of feeling, the Austin-based singer/songwriter/guitarist explored and obliterated the boundaries of rock-and-roll and modern pop, mining equal inspiration from the likes of Judas Priest and Ariana Grande in her bold but masterful genre-bending. Produced by Michael Shuman of Queens of the Stone Age and Mini Mansions, the resulting body of work finds Wolfe upending the conventions of each genre, ultimately arriving at a guitar-drenched sound that’s wildly unpredictable and immediately magnetic.
Emily Wolfe, a self-taught guitar player starting at the age of 5, has honed her craft over the past 22 years and continues to take her playing to the next level. After self-releasing her EP “Roulette” in 2014 followed by single “Atta Blues” in 2016, Emily used 2017 and 2018 to strategize and write new music. She released a debut self-titled, full-length album in February 2019, produced by Ben Tanner of the Alabama Shakes.
Wolfe has been described as a sonic merging of PJ Harvey and Jack White and is guaranteed to not disappoint early fans who are already along for the ride to greatness. Featured by the Wall Street Journal, MTV, NPR, and American Songwriter, Emily Wolfe is definitely one to watch.

Bad Bad Hats is an indie rock band from Minneapolis, Minnesota. The band consists of Kerry
Alexander, Chris Hoge, and Connor Davison. Named for a trouble-making character from the
Madeline children’s books, Bad Bad Hats is defined by a balance of sweet and sour. Their
music honors classic pop songwriting, with nods to nineties rock simplicity and pop-punk
frivolity. Through it all, Alexander’s unflinchingly sincere lyrics cut to the emotional heart of
things.
Alexander and Hoge met while attending Macalester College in Saint Paul, Minnesota. In 2012,
they formed Bad Bad Hats with friend and bassist Noah Boswell, and began performing around
the Twin Cities. That same year, they were signed by Minneapolis label Afternoon Records.
Their 2015 debut album Psychic Reader caught the attention of outlets including The New
Yorker, NPR, Pitchfork, and Paste. Since the release of Psychic Reader, Bad Bad Hats has
toured the U.S. extensively, supporting artists including Margaret Glaspy, Hippo Campus, and
Third Eye Blind.
Lightning Round, the band’s second full-length album, finds Bad Bad Hats more confident and
mature than ever. Producer and collaborator Brett Bullion (who also produced Psychic Reader)
encouraged the group to record live in the studio, an approach which pushed the band outside
of their comfort zone and lends many songs on the record a loose, organic feel. There is a
vulnerability in this (fluttering tape loops, a few wrong notes) and it makes the music on the new
album feel as honest and unpredictable as Alexander’s lyrics. In this spontaneous environment,
Hoge, who is known to play every instrument in the band, delivers some of his most inspired
musical performances yet.
As for Alexander, she’s still writing love songs, ones that recount with cinematic swell the subtle
joy and pain of the everyday. Her vocals are supported by open, breathing arrangements that
feature lush keyboard sounds and woody guitar tones. Davison was recruited to play drums on
the album and became a full-time member in the process. His drumming and melodic
contributions give the new songs a level of nuance not heard in previous releases.
Lightning Round marks the final release with contributions from original member Noah Boswell,
who will be leaving the group this fall to pursue a master’s degree. Bad Bad Hats continues with
Alexander, Hoge, and Davison. They have plans to tour the country this year

In describing Henry Rollins, the tendency is to try to squeeze as many labels as possible into a single sentence. “Rollins is many things,” says The Washington Post, “diatribist, confessor, provocateur, humorist, even motivational speaker…his is an enthusiastic and engaging chatter.”
Rollins returns with the announcement of his Good To See You 2022 tour.
On the Good To See You 2022 tour Henry will faithfully recount the events of his life in the brief pre-COVID period since the last tour and when things got even stranger over the last several months. It’s been an interesting time to say the least and he’s got some great stories to tell.

Amos Lee has announced Dreamland, a new studio album coming February 11 via Dualtone Records which finds the Billboard chart-topping artist returning with “pensive beauty” (NPR) and “his greatest asset: the weathered voice which he uses to plumb emotional depths” (Pitchfork).
Four years after going on hiatus, Jimkata is back with a renewed sense of purpose and an extraordinary new album. Recorded in Syracuse with producer Jason Randall, Bonfires finds the trio digging deep and stretching their boundaries with bold, intoxicating arrangements fueled by swirling synthesizers and anthemic hooks. The songs here are at once modern and classic, blurring the lines between the organic and the electronic as they reckon with doubt, struggle, and perseverance in a search for truth and meaning. Like much of Jimkata’s catalog, Bonfires delivers transcendence in tight, dancefloor-ready packages, but there’s a sense of freedom at play that pushes the trio’s performances to new emotional heights, a kind of liberation that can only come from learning to let go of expectation and embrace the moment.
“I think the time away brought us all more maturity, more patience, an ability to see the bigger picture,” says singer/guitarist Evan Friedell. “We all gained a lot of perspective on life and the value of being in a band together.”Indeed, the heart and soul of Jimkata has always been the enduring bonds between Friedell and his longtime bandmates, guitarist/keyboardist Aaron Gorsch and drummer Packy Lunn. Pals since middle school, the three launched Jimkata in 2005 while attending Ithaca College, where they quickly found an audience for their relentlessly feel-good performances, which grew from local house parties to club, theater, and festival dates on the strength of a series of critically acclaimed albums. Popdose hailed the band’s “bubbly sweetness,” while American Songwriter praised their “organic chemistry,” and Relix raved that the trio’s sound “proves that rock-based music still has a place in the world of four-on-the-floor beats.”
Eighteen-year-old Brandon Niederauer, nicknamed “Taz” for his ferocious guitar playing, is living proof that dreams really do come true. Having performed in some of the most legendary venues in America with many of the most prominent musicians of our time, the young guitarist, singer, and songwriter has already earned himself quite the reputation.It all started at eight years old, when Brandon watched the movie School of Rock. Already inspired by his father’s record collection, Brandon instantly realized he was destined to play guitar. From that moment on, his guitar rarely left his hands. Just four years later, Brandon was cast in the principal role of guitarist “Zack Mooneyham” in the Tony Award-nominated Andrew Lloyd Webber Broadway production, School of Rock the Musical.
Based in New York City, Brandon has had the opportunity to play with many of his musical idols. In recent years, he’s shared the stage with multiple members of the Allman Brothers Band, including Gregg Allman, Derek Trucks, Warren Haynes, Butch Trucks, and Oteil Burbridge, as well as a variety of other notable musicians, including Buddy Guy, Stevie Nicks, Lady Gaga, Slash, Jon Batiste, Dweezil Zappa, Eric Gales, George Clinton & Parliament Funkadelic, Dr. John, Gary Clark Jr., Col. Bruce Hampton, Eric Krasno, George Porter Jr., Robert Randolph, Karl Denson, Doug Wimbish, and John Popper. He has also performed with Tedeschi Trucks Band, The String Cheese Incident, Umphrey’s McGee, The Revivalists, Dumpstaphunk, Blackberry Smoke, Galactic, and countless other bands.Since making his national television debut on The Ellen DeGeneres Show at just ten years old, Brandon has appeared on The Late Show with Stephen Colbert, Good Morning America, and The View. In 2018, Brandon reunited with Andrew Lloyd Webber, performing in January with Sarah Brightman at The Phantom of the Opera’s 30th Anniversary celebration, and in April alongside Sara Bareilles, Alice Cooper, and John Legend in NBC’s live broadcast production of Jesus Christ Superstar.

It’s full steam ahead for Midnight North after an exciting year featuring major festival plays, nationwide tours, and the release of a second live record. Rolling Stone hailed Midnight North as the “Best New Act” in its review of 2018’s Peach Music Festival saying the band “takes the best parts of roots music and weaves them into a tapestry of rock and Americana”.
In the summer of 2018, Midnight North released their second live record, Selections from the Great American Music Hall. This 8 track album features original live staples like “Everyday” and “Playing a Poor Hand Well”, covers like John Prine’s “Angel from Montgomery” and the Dead’s “The Music Never Stopped”. The concert album also features guest appearances by Bob Weir, Phil Lesh, members of Twiddle, and the band’s hometown horn section, The Northbound Horns.
Immediately after their sophomore studio release, 2015’s Scarlet Skies, Midnight North – fronted by lead songwriters Elliott Peck & Grahame Lesh and strong rhythm section work from bass player Connor O’Sullivan and drummer Nathan Graham – began touring the country in earnest, visiting the East Coast and the Midwest for the first time in summer 2015. The band wrote the majority of 2017’s Under the Lights in the following months, and the lyrical road themes – the initial excitement, the longing for home, and the inherent need to keep moving – shine through. Midnight North Live“Under the Lights is the perfect title for this collection of songs,” said O’Sullivan. “These songs and lyrics are about being a band of musicians on the road away from home. Songs literally performed and tested under the lights at countless venues across the US.”
2019 and beyond will continue the growth for Midnight North, as the expanding discography and consistent national touring help pave the way for more and more fans to discover the band. “These songs tell our story, at least up to this point,” said Lesh. “Our job is to sing you these stories as honestly as we can and transport you into our world for an hour or two.”
Feat. Adrian Tramontano (Kung Fu), Chris DeAngelis (Kung Fu) and Scott Hannay
