All patrons subject to search upon venue entry. \n*** \n \n*** \nJeremih \n \nWebsite\nFacebook\nTwitter \n“I can make a great sex song anytime I want\, without even saying a body part\, without saying anything that would be omitted on the radio. Somehow I’ve just been given that ability\,” Jeremih remarks matter-of-factly\, not even the hint of a mischievous grin on his face. The man knows his talent\, and his calling card. And as enviable as that talent is\, no man of Jeremih’s intelligence and versatility would be satisfied in a pigeonhole: “In no way do I feel that ‘Birthday Sex’ defines me as an artist\, or defined my first album. People are quick to make comparisons: ‘he’s the next R. Kelly\, he’s the next Dream.’ That’s flattering talk but we’re all different\, as people and as artists.” \nIndeed\, 23-year-old Jeremih Felton has planted his own flag among the glittering banner acts at Def Jam: “I feel like I’m on the best label I could be on; I’m not intimidated by anyone musically\, and I’m honored and inspired by the artists around me. There were a lot to choose from\, a lot of labels were interested in a short period of time\, but I didn’t get this far by making bad decisions. And to be blessed with L.A. Reid’s thoughts and even his critiques\, I couldn’t ask for anything more.” \nSo the stage is set for Jeremih’s sophomore album\, All About You\, dropping September 28th. The singer/ rapper/producer/multi-instrumentalist has again aligned with producer Mick Schultz to deliver eleven songs long on sophistication\, sex appeal\, and even some old soul. “Mick and I have a great chemistry; we entered the game together\, and we have albums’ worth of music\,” Jeremih imparts. “I want him to get known too; I’m not selfish like this has to be the Jeremih show. This album is a great showcase for his ability as well as my own. Once people hear this album\, others will recognize what I recognized in him and reach out for more of what we create.” \nWhat they create is a sonic palate ranging from subtle savoir-faire to unapologetic\, house-shaking climax. First single “I Like\,” featuring labelmate Ludacris and co-written by Keith James\, is pure babymaking bliss. Jeremih’s uncanny falsetto wends into Ludacris’ irresistible\, irrepressible flow\, bobbing and weaving with Schultz’s bubbly\, scaled-back rhythm. Elsewhere\, the titular track is a languid 4/4 offset by sawing high-octave synth riffs. But Jeremih’s vocals\, smacking of a young Michael\, steal the show. Rare is a falsetto this controlled\, this textured\, this evocative. Listen for it also on “Take Off\,” what Jeremih terms a relationship record told from the lesser-heard male point of view: “Guys have feelings too\, guys get hurt\, and this record expresses that. There’s a point when we feel like we’ve done enough in trying to work this out\, and now it’s best if I take off for the both of us. I can say I been there\, but I also hear this from a lot of peers. Women can relate to it too\, even if it’s not from their perspective.” \n“Down on Me” featuring 50 Cent is a supersmash in the waiting. 50 unleashes an insistent\, machine-gun flow\, while Jeremih contorts himself through some outrageous vocal acrobatics. His voice\, spiced with an island cadence\, bends and stretches about one of the nastiest hooks R&B has seen in quite some time. “Down on Me” is definitely a song to be up on. “I’ve always respected 50 and always wanted to work with him\,” Jeremih notes. “I wanted to reach out to a couple artists who could bring to the table what I know I do.”\nJeremih doesn’t lack for confidence. Nor should he. A native of the unforgiving Southside Chicago ―“a city full of talent”― streets\, Jeremih kept to a positive path\, honing his prodigious musical chops on saxophone\, drums\, and piano. He graduated high school a year early and enrolled at the University of Illinois as a prospective engineering major. Bookworm by day\, beatmaker by night. “I write off beats\,” Jeremih reveals. “I’m a producer myself\, that’s how I thought I’d initially get into the game. After a while\, I just got to writing to the beats. And at the time\, I was rapping\, not singing.” Indeed\, the U of I campus couldn’t hold Jeremih; he transferred to Columbia College\, one of Chicago’s preeminent creative schools.  \n“That’s where I met Mick Schultz and started vibing with him\,” he continues\, “And began singing over his beats\, because that’s what a lot of his stuff called for at the time. But singing and rapping both came natural; that stemmed from playing instruments growing up. Playing the piano taught me how to sing\, or at least how to sound out\, reach\, and hold notes.” \nJeremih holds notes\, and court\, on All About You. The album has a depth\, a sense of growth\, an exploratory side. “The Five Senses” is a slow\, sultry firestarter featuring Jeremih’s peerless tone. Then there’s “Broken Down\,” full of ominous piano chords and cadenced like a frozen moment in jazz or soul lore. And “Holding On\,” the subsequent track: “After being broken down\, you gotta keep holding on\,” Jeremih affirms. “It’s about trying to see the future when you’re going through something in the moment that’s getting you down. I played this for my Grandpops and a lot of older listeners and they really responded to it. I’m proud of this song and how far I’ve come as an artist.” \nJeremih has other reasons to be proud. Concurrent with his album release\, he’ll be appearing on the second season of BET’s popular series\, Rising Icons. Icons\, presented by Grey Goose vodka\, pulls back the curtains and chronicles the lives of rising stars\, both at home and on tour. Jeremih will share the spotlight with fast risers such as J. Cole\, Estelle\, Laura Izibor\, and B.O.B. Elsewhere\, he’s been honing his pen game for other ballyhooed newcomers\, including Jenna Andrews\, for whom he and Mick wrote “Tumblin’ Down\,” her debut single on Island Records. “I write what I feel\, and with the pitch of my voice\, I can write for a man or a woman\,” he states. “My voice just has the ability to do a lot of different things.” \nSpeaking of different things\, fans yearning for even more Jeremih can cop the Deluxe version of All About You\, available via iTunes and featuring several tracks not on the physical CD. Expect also a Jeremih mixtape\, on which the young star does as much spitting as singing: “I rapped a little on my last album with ‘Raindrops\,’ and people asked ‘Who was that?’ Now\, I have some new stuff that I went hard on that just didn’t fit with the theme of this album. So I’m looking forward to the mixtape to let people see that side of me. A lot of singers try to do it\, and it can either A) turn all your fans away like ‘You need to stick to singing\, fam’ or B) get you respect as being able to do both. I can put rhyme to a melody and have it accepted.” \nIt’s been a whirlwind couple years for Jeremih\, first setting the Midwest ablaze with his indy anthem “My Ride\,” following that up with the RIAA-certified platinum “Birthday Sex\,” a nomination for an American Music Award\, and now\, an imminent sophomore album. “I’ve almost traveled the world in a year\, and that’s an amazing experience. I now know what to expect this time around. When I do shows\, I perform every song off the last album. People still want to hear those songs live\, and those are from a year ago. So I’m excited to see the response to this material.” Jeremih recognizes that without his dedicated fans\, none of these amazing experiences would be possible. That is why\, on September 28th\, he would like to tell each and every one of them it’s “All About You”. \n*** \nTeyana Taylor \n \nFacebook\nTwitter \n*** \nDaniLeigh \n \nWebsite\nFacebook\nTwitter \nWhen the end of Summer hits\, the desire to rewind time kicks in\, reliving every magical moment from the season’s past. It’s a vibe that newcomer DaniLeigh has managed to encapsulate in her debut EP Summer With Friends\, coming soon. The 22-year-old singing and dancing phenomenon cut her teeth in the business when she directed a music video for her late mentor\, Prince. She enhanced her buzz with back-to-back jams “Play” (featuring Kap G) and “Lurkin’”\, and is here to continue her mission of making music that both sounds and feels good. \nThe South Florida native had music in her blood\, singing from a young age. As an early teen\, DaniLeigh recorded YouTube covers of songs like Musiq Soulchild’s “So Beautiful\,” though she wasn’t quite ready for the big time. “I was really shy\,” she admits\, “and I didn’t realize the unique sound of my voice until later on.” It wasn’t until a few years later when she moved to Los Angeles at 16 that DaniLeigh began harnessing her craft. In LA she found her footing in the music industry\, starting with dancing. “I was dancing in music videos\, commercials\, you name it\,” she recalls. “From there\, I met a lot of producers onset and just networked.” Singing became the secret weapon\, as DaniLeigh would reveal her chops and be invited to studios for recording sessions. However\, a life-changing encounter with the legendary Prince would be the real catalyst. \nAfter learning of DaniLeigh’s talents as a dancer (through a one-minute video clip)\, the Purple One reached out to have her direct his video for “Breakfast Can Wait” at just 18 years old. The video hit worldwide\, appearing on networks like MTV\, BET\, and REVOLT. Prince ultimately took DaniLeigh under his wing\, mentoring her budding singing career. His untimely death in 2016 left a void in DaniLeigh’s life\, though his presence is still felt as DaniLeigh’s star is only getting brighter. \n“Play” truly kicked things off. The high-energy single is described by DaniLeigh as an empowering anthem for women. “It’s a bold statement\,” she says of the cut\, which carries a message of “making a play” in all areas of life. “I’m a very positive person and this song I feel can help motivate people to put in that work\,” she says. Bringing Kap G (who is of Mexican descent) into the fold as a feature was her way of uniting more Latinos in music\, as DaniLeigh’s Dominican heritage is evident in both her style and sound. The single “Lurkin’” immediately followed\, as a slick nod to social those stalkers who don’t congratulate moves\, yet look on from the social media sidelines. The song even made its way to the HBO hit series Insecure. The stage is now set for DaniLeigh to show the diverse angles of her talent on a grander scale.  \nAptly titled Summer With Friends\, the upcoming EP sums up DaniLeigh’s past few months\, which she lightheartedly describes as “just having fun and working.” The relatable nature of the project brings forth the aforementioned singles\, along with feel good songs that channel the young artist’s inspirations including Aaliyah\, Missy Elliott\, and Drake while showing her ability to fuse hip-hop and R&B with poppier electronic-driven vibes. Songs like “Questions” playfully target those relationship interrogation sessions (Where were you? Who were you with?)\, while “Ex” is a self-explanatory track about the now-single artist’s previous romance. “He got one song\,” she jokes. Other cuts like the infectious “On” and “All I Know” show DaniLeigh’s versatility within the pop-urban landscape\, while “All Day” highlights her Dominican roots. “That’s a bachata beat underneath [the production]\,” she proudly points out. “The time right now is in alignment\, showing that things are going the right way.” As DaniLeigh unveils her debut Summer With Friends and the projects that follow\, she maintains her goal of positive music\, though has one wish involving one important angel by her side. “I always say I wish Prince was here to see all of this happening with me right now\,” she says. “It’s okay though. I know he’s watching.”

Belly released two albums ~ the first being Star\, which earned the band two Grammy nominations and eventually sold two million copies worldwide ~ and the second album being King\, which was produced by the legendary Glyn Johns and released in February 1995. After several extensive world-wide tours (including opening slots for REM\, U2\, and the Velvet Underground\, and tours with Radiohead\, Catherine Wheel\, and the Cranberries)\, Belly unfortunately fell prey to the all-too-common rock-and-roll cliché of industry pressure\, financial issues\, personal conflict and divergent creative ambitions. The band played its last show on Nov. 11\, 1995. Tanya went on to release five albums under her own name. Gail spent three years playing in L7\, then two years with Bif Naked\, and continues to play guitar in Benny Sizzler\, her band with her partner Chil. Chris and Tom opened a commercial and fine-art photography studio in New York City. In 2015\, Chris published his first children’s book\, Indi Surfs. Tom briefly played guitar and keyboards with both Buffalo Tom and Kristin Hersh. \nIn late 2015\, twenty years after last playing together\, the band decided it was ‘now or never’ and announced Belly would reunite for a limited tour in 2016. Falling right back into a laughter-fueled groove as they began rehearsing for the tour\, they decided to write a few new songs together. At the end of that joyful and successful tour\, they decided to expand on the idea and write a full album’s worth of music together and are now in the process of recording the new album with their old friend Paul Q. Kolderie at the board. Belly have partnered with Pledge Music\, and the album (not yet named) can be pre-ordered on vinyl\, CD\, or as a digital download\, or as part of a variety of “bundles” and exclusive limited-edition goodies. All advance orders through Pledge include member-only access to updates\, peeks into the studio\, and a soon to be released digital download of the band’s cover of “Hush-a-Bye Mountain\,” recorded just for fun while in the studio.

SUMMARY:The Jesus Lizard
DESCRIPTION:Presented by Bowery Boston \nDoors: 6:00 pm / Show: 6:45 pm \nTickets on sale Fri. 4/20 at 10AM! \nTickets available at AXS.COM\, or by phone at 855-482-2090. No service charge on tickets purchased in person at The Sinclair Box Office Wednesdays-Saturdays 12-7PM. \nPlease note: this show is 18+ with valid ID.

All bags larger than 12 inches x 12 inches\, backpacks\, professional cameras\, video equipment\, large bags\, luggage and like articles are strictly prohibited from the venue. Please make sure necessary arrangements are made ahead of time. All patrons subject to search upon venue entry. \n*** \nThe Jesus Lizard \n \nWebsite\nFacebook\nTwitter \nFollowing an instantly sold-out handful of US shows this past winter\, the Jesus Lizard have confirmed eight more dates.  Kicking off September 6 at Washington\, DC’s Black Cat the itinerary also takes the legendary band to Boston\, Philadelphia\,  Detroit\, Austin\, Atlanta\, Seattle and Portland.  Prior to this past December\, the band had not played live together since 2009 and these new shows represent the only new appearances planned.  \nTickets for all shows are on-sale Friday\, April 20 at 10am local time.    \n2017’s tour reminded all that saw the Jesus Lizard that their live show is unparalleled.  Brooklyn Vegan noted\, “…it would be hard to say The Jesus Lizard have mellowed in the 30 years since forming” and reviewing Houston’s Day For Night Festival\, the Houston Press declared\, “it was hard to deny that the Jesus Lizard was the best act on Sunday\, hands down.”  Stereogum have called them “one of the greatest live bands ever” and The New York Times has used the words “extravagantly good” while Rolling Stone speaks of the band’s “shattering live performances.”   \nThe Jesus Lizard formed in late 80’s Austin\, TX after David Yow (vox) and David Wm. Sims’ (bass) previous band Scratch Acid broke up.  They started the Jesus Lizard with Duane Denison (guitar) and a drum machine and recorded their debut EP Pure with Steve Albini in 1989.  A move to Chicago prompted the firing of the drum machine in favor of Mac McNeilly (drums) and in 1990 the band recorded their first full-length\, Head\, for Touch and Go.   \nWhile the labels “seminal” and “legendary” are often applied too easily\, they both accurately describe the Jesus Lizard.  They released five more remarkable LPs before disbanding in 1999\, the last being 1998’s Blue. During that time\, they toured endlessly and issued not only the critically acclaimed studio LPs but also assorted singles\, EPs\, compilations and a live album.  Pitchfork has said of them: “the Jesus Lizard raised a bar that few bands have reached since…Rarely does a band have each member adding something essential to such a united\, ferocious whole.”   \n*** \nAll Souls \n \nWebsite\nFacebook\nTwitter \nLife’s paths twist and turn\, but we always eventually end up where we’re meant to be. \nIn that respect\, the story of All Souls feels pre-destined. Way back in 1994\, Tony Tornay [Fatso Jetson\, The Desert Sessions\, Linda Perry] first met Tony Aguilar and Meg Castellanos [Totimoshi\, Alma Sangre] by introduction from Erik Trammel [Black Elk\, Wadsworth]. They kept in touch and always bandied the idea of “writing and jamming” about. \nIt took 21 years\, but a band finally became a reality in 2015 when these four artists sat around a table and discussed officially working together… \n“One of the things that we did in this band that I’ve never done before is have that discussion\,” recalls Aguilar. “Meg and I had always wanted to play with Tony as did Erik. It finally fell into place. Once we figured out what the lineup was going to be\, we sat around and discussed what we wanted to sound like artistically before even jamming. It gave us a really great grasp on the artistic angle. It was almost like forming the painting before it was brought to life.” \n“This is the culmination of thirty years as a professional musician\,” adds Tornay. “It’s everything I’ve wanted for as long as I can remember. When we get together\, it feels like home. This embodies every reason why I do what I do.” \nThroughout 2016\, the quartet—Aguilar [vocals\, guitar]\, Castellanos [bass\, vocals]\, Trammell [guitar]\, and Tornay [drums]—recorded what would become their self-titled full-length debut\, All Souls\, during intermittent sessions at Sound of Sirens Studio in Los Angeles with producer Toshi Kasai [Tool\, The Melvins\, Foo Fighters]. \nFor Aguilar and Castellanos\, the music spoke to a dormant primal need that harked back to their time in the fan favorite underground mainstay Totimoshi. \n“At the time\, we had been doing Alma Sangre\, which was our take on flamenco meshed with Ranchero\,” says Aguilar. “We’re rockers at heart though\, and we had been wanting to be in another rock band. It also reunited us with Toshi who did three of our Totimoshi records. He has his own approach. It’s almost like you enter into a different world with his production. Each song becomes like a journey\, and nobody curtailed that. We were all on the same page.” \nFollowing tours with the likes of Red Fang\, The Sword\, Kvelertak\, and Torche\, the band unleash All Souls in 2018 via Sunyata—the label founded by iconic Screaming Trees and Mad Season drummer Barrett Martin. Earmarked by Spaghetti Western-style expanse and rough-and-tumble riffing\, the music proudly bears the wild wear-and-tear of the nineties Palm Desert scene with a twist of psychedelic voodoo and metallic edge. \nIntroducing the album\, the first single “Never Know” barrels forward at full speed powered by gusty distortion and a psychedelically catchy refrain. \n“Lyrically\, I want to keep it a little mysterious\,” Aguilar reveals. “It’s about people in our society who feel like they own the world\, act accordingly\, and behave in ways that are completely derelict of social responsibility. They’ll never know love or understand that responsibility. They’ll never know anything.” \nElsewhere\, “Party Night” dements a surf rock-style gallop with punchy delivery and overcast production. The melancholy melodies of the seven-minute “Rename The Room” paint a stark picture of bipolar mood swings and abuse inspired by a dark day in Aguilar’s childhood home. Tool drummer Danny Carey kicks off the entrancing “Sadist/Servant” with a spirited cameo on Tabla Drums\, providing a tribal flare. \n“‘Sadist/Servant’ one never gets boring\,” smiles Tornay. “It’s always in your face and never falls back in the pocket. Danny killed it. He’s playing this really aggressive instrument on the quietest part of the song!” \nIn the end\, these four musicians were always meant for this band. That’s why All Souls is so easy to get lost in. \n“When you hear this\, I hope you have that experience where you’re just completely inside the music\,” Aguilar leaves off. “You can just fall into it.”

All sales are final unless a show is postponed or canceled.

Not really. Never could square his grand ambitions against his mechanical limitations. Listen to his first attempt\, recorded at nineteen on a cheap laptop\, and you’ll hear what Brian Eno fondly calls “the sound of failure” – thrilling\, extraordinary\, and singularly compelling failure. Will’s first love\, rendered in the vivid teenage viscera of stolen gin\, bruised shins\, and weird sex\, was an event too momentous for the medium assigned to record it. \nEven so\, even awkward and amateurish\, Twin Fantasy is deeply\, truly adored. Legions of reverent listeners carve rituals out of it: sobbing over “Famous Prophets\,” making out to ‘Cute Thing’\, dancing their asses off as ‘Bodys’ climbs higher\, higher. The distortion hardly matters. You can hear him just fine. You can hear everything. And you can feel everything: his hope\, his despair\, his wild overjoy. He’s trusting you – plural you\, thousands of you – with the things he can’t say out loud. ” I pretended I was drunk when I came out to my friends\,” he sings – and then\, caught between truths\, backtracks: ” I never came out to my friends. We were all on Skype\, and I laughed and changed the subject.” \nYou might be imagining an extended diary entry\, an angsty transmission from a bygone LiveJournal set to power chords and cranked to eleven. You would be wrong. Twin Fantasy is not a monologue. Twin Fantasy is a conversation. You know\, he sings\, that I’m mostly singing about you. This is Will’s greatest strength as a songwriter: he spins his own story\, but he’s always telling yours\, too. Between nods to local details – Harper’s Ferry\, The Yellow Wallpaper\, the Monopoly board collecting dust in his back seat – he leaves room for the fragile stuff of your own life\, your own loves. From the very beginning\, alone in his bedroom\, in his last weeks of high school\, he knew he was writing anthems. Someday\, he hoped\, you and I might sing these words back to him. \n“It was never a finished work\,” Toledo says\, “and it wasn’t until last year that I figured out how to finish it.” He has\, now\, the benefit of a bigger budget\, a full band in fine form\, and endless time to tinker. According to him\, it took eight months of mixing just to get the drums right. But this is no shallow second take\, sanitized in studio and scrubbed of feeling. This is the album he always wanted to make. It sounds the way he always wanted it to sound. \nIt’s been hard\, stepping into the shoes of his teenage self\, walking back to painful places. There are lyrics he wouldn’t write again\, an especially sad song he regards as an albatross. But even as he carries the weight of that younger\, wounded Toledo\, he moves forward. He grows. He revises\, gently\, the songs we love so much. In the album’s final moments\, in those ” apologies to future me’s and you’s\,” there is more forgiveness than fury. \nThis\, Toledo says\, is the most vital difference between the old and the new: he no longer sees his own story as a tragedy. \nHe’s not alone no more. \n*** \nNaked Giants \n \nWebsite\nFacebook\nTwitter \n‘SLUFF’ is a word that means both everything and nothing\, but it definitely sums up the three distinct personalities that make up Naked Giants. Depending which member you ask\, SLUFF is either slang for the black gunk that comes off your shoes when it snows in the winter\, an acronym that stands for South Lake Union Fuck Face (a reference to the tech bros who have infiltrated Seattle in recent years) or what a snake does when it sheds its skin. It’s also the title – and a song on – the band’s debut full-length. \nFormed in 2015\, the Seattle trio – guitarist/vocalist Grant Mullen\, bassist/vocalist Gianni Aiello and drummer Henry LaVallee – put out debut EP R.I.P. the following year and have been steadily building up their reputation as a live act in the meantime\, and having as much fun as possible while doing it. Because as much as the three-piece – who are all in their very early 20s now – have their heads screwed on and are fiercely intelligent people\, they also want to let loose and enjoy being in a band. After all\, that’s kind of what being in a band with your closest friends is all about. \n“I just want to make as much noise and have as much fun and get as sweaty as I can\,” says LaVallee\, “and if that resonates with people\, that’s who I want in my life. That’s who I want to play music for.” \nThat clash of the cerebral and the intelligent – the desire to say something meaningful but also just have some fun – is what underpins the very essence of who Naked Giants is. It’s a band of contradictions. Their music\, which is simultaneously timeless and modern\, new and old\, is loud and brash and raw\, but there’s vulnerability there\, too. In fact\, debut album SLUFF is a melting pot of ideas and sounds that\, on paper\, don’t seem like they would go together\, but which form one phenomenally cohesive whole. \n“These are songs that we’ve played live for a long time\,” explains Mullen. “We wanted to showcase the different kinds of songs we’ve written and put them all onto an album that flows together\, making it tie together into something that means something.” \nThat’s exactly what they do on SLUFF’s twelve weird and wonderful songs. Recorded with producer Steve Fisk (Nirvana/Screaming Trees/Beat Happening/Car Seat Headrest/Low/Minus The Bear) in Seattle at Avast! and Soundhouse Studios over the course of two and a half weeks in October\, the record is a dizzying mélange of influences and ideas. It swirls with hyperactive restlessness as 1960s harmonies share space with 1970s riffs while at the same time battling an undercurrent of punk rock and more modern indie influences. The song “TV”\, for example\, is a kaleidoscope of sound that seems to take in the whole history of rock’n’roll but reframes it in a more contemporary context. \n“From our perspective as millennials where everything is accessible all at once\,” explains Aiello\, “there is no difference to us between punk and classic rock or anything like that because we’re all observing it at the same time through the same lens. And yes\, history exists\, but if you’re just flipping through something on the TV\, it all kind of conflates together – kind of like the song does.” \nNeedless to say\, that song simmers with tension\, and it’s not the only one. “Everybody Thinks They Know (But No One Really Knows)” is a jaunty\, upbeat jangle but with distinctly sinister undertones\, “Slow Dance II” is a sumptuous\, soulful track with a desperate\, raw and bluesy swagger. “Dat Boi” is a rash of brash guitars that’s soon swept by an off-kilter\, psychedelic melody while closer “Shredded Again” is a graceful\, lackadaisical comedown after the rush of energy that precedes it. Raucous and rabid\, but also considered and complex\, Naked Giants’ music is the sum of all their influences and then some. And then some more. \n“What’s really interesting to me\,” ponders Aiello\, “is we have very different influences\, so when we’re jamming it’s like it’s being pulled apart and pushed together in so many different directions. And I think that’s a good thing.” \nThen\, of course\, there’s the quasi-grunge title track\, which chugs along with an ominous yet uplifting attitude as its title is shouted with a fervent zeal – “SLUFF!” – and which carries with it both the weight of the world and the reckless abandon of youth. \nSo while Naked Giants are happy to play the role of the dumb\, hedonistic rock band\, don’t be fooled for a second – they’re one of the brightest\, smartest acts out there at the moment. And this is also just the beginning of what they’re already planning to be a long and rewarding career. Even at this early stage\, they’re taking it as seriously as they are just having a good time. They have a lot to say and they’re not afraid to say it\, but they also relish in what making music has\, even already\, given back to them. \n“Performing on a stage has been very purpose-giving\,” says LaVallee. “Being in a group of people all experiencing music together brings a strong sense of community\, which excites me. Hopefully going forward we’ll be playing to more and more people. I want us to spread respect and fun rock’n’roll music to a whole lot of people. That just seems like a good deal all around.” \n“We’re just here to play music\,” says Mullen\, “so the more it goes well the more we’ll be thinking about our own art and our own voices. And that’s really the progression of it – personal growth and artistic growth. And whatever people think of that on a greater scale when it reaches them is all kind of up to them.” \n“Not everyone gets to go onstage and have a microphone in front of their mouth\,” says Aiello\, “so that’s a certain amount of responsibility. If you’re given the responsibility of having a microphone then you better say something pretty important. The pressure is to learn and listen to as much as we can so we can say the right thing and hopefully impact people.”

SUMMARY:[SOLD OUT] Alina Baraz

Please make sure necessary arrangements are made ahead of time. All patrons subject to search upon venue entry. \n*** \n \n*** \nAlina Baraz \n \nFacebook\nTwitter \n*** \nCautious Clay \n \nWebsite\nFacebook\nTwitter \n“Ever since I started playing music\, it was always about the feel\,” says Josh Karpeh\, AKA Cautious Clay. “There are a lot of things in art that you can learn by practicing or studying\, but feel’s not one of them. It’s something you’ve just got to have.”          \nIt’s that feel\, that deep emotional intuition that fuels Cautious Clay’s sound. Blending R&B\, hip-hop\, and experimental indie\, his productions are dark and engrossing\, built upon a unique combination of organic instruments\, digital programming\, and soulful vocals. He writes with unflinching honesty\, engaging in deeply personal self-reflection with boldly vulnerable and vividly poetic lyrics. At times recalling contemporaries like James Blake or Sampha\, Cautious is a profoundly modern songwriter and a forward- thinking producer\, but he’s also steeped in the past\, quick to cite Burt Bacharach as an idol and credit Stevie Wonder and Quincy Jones as ever-present influences in his artful arrangements. \n“I used to think about songwriting and production as completely separate\,” he explains\, “but when I learned how to merge those two things\, that’s when I was able to start creating music that really connected with people.”  \nOriginally from Cleveland\, OH\, Cautious began his artistic journey at the age of seven when he picked up classical flute. His studies led him deep into the worlds of blues and jazz\, and by the time he hit college in Washington\, D.C.\, he’d added a number of other instruments to his repertoire in addition to songwriting and production. Now based in Brooklyn\, Cautious is currently preparing to release his debut EP\, Blood Type\, in February.

I’ve been doing these things for so long now\, that I feel like just when I have written the mother of all things informative and maybe funny\, I go and record a new record. Why does shit always have to evolve and the information change every time another year goes by? Why\, since the last bio (which I felt was an understated masterpiece) did I have to go and do shit to deem it necessary for an update? Just because between the last album\, “I Liked it Better When You Had No Heart” and now\, I have: shot a video for “Pretty Melody” from the album ILIBWYHNH\, wore a tv on my head in it and fought ninjas\, got it featured on YouTube and it got a half million views\, did a sold out headlining tour of the states last year\, supported Train on a sold out tour of the states\, then went and supported Pink on a sold out stadium tour of Europe all summer\, including sold out headlining club shows of our own over there. Hmmm… What else.. Oh! Taylor Swift heard a little version I did of her song\, “I Liked it Better When You Belonged With Me” (or was it “You Belong With Me”? I can’t freaking remember…). She called me and asked if she could play my version of it on the Grammys and would I mind playing along side her and Stevie Nicks for the performance. Then she fell in love with me and ran away to Barcelona to elope\, only to find out that while I was in the bathroom at the airport\, she fell in love with Jake Gylenhall (sp?)\, who stole my fucking seat next to her in the waiting terminal…. Ok… I made that last part up. Fun right? No? Ok.. Like the fans are always telling me\, don’t talk about politics\, religious views or Tay Tay Swift. \nI should mention the band i play in. Just like the last record\, this record was recorded\, written and produced by me and the Black Widows. It consist of my longtime bandmates\, Chris Unck on guitar\, lap and pedal steel. He’s a redneck from the north Georgia mountains who I think wrestled alligators at one time\, and built lighthouses. He also fronted Chris Unck and the Black Roses.. Until I stole him. Fran Capitanelli on lead guitar is also a friend of mine that resided in Atlanta during my tenure there\, and he played guitar and sang lead in a band I loved called The Tom Collins. Until I stole him. He is the Professor of Energy…. Ask him to explain. Jake Sinclair on bass is not only the tallest\, skinniest bassist I know\, but he’s also the best. He’s even better than me\, and I’m fucking awesome. I met Jake while producing a record for his band The Films…. Until I stole him. I bartered with him though. I told him he could also engineer the records I make in my studio with me (he’s also the best engineer I know) and that his singer/songwriter in the Films\, Mike Trent\, would have to join in on the Black Widows writing process. I kinda made out good on this whole deal\, because Mike is one of the most unsung singer/songwriters I know\, and the lyrical collaborations we have done on the last couple of records have been my favorites. Oh yeah\, Mike’s wife (Cary Ann Hearst) is also an amazing singer/songwriter that I produced a record for last year…. She sang backup vocals on the new Widows record. It’s a family affair… \nso this is the part of the bio where I’m supposed to describe the new record by us called “The Spade”. I’m supposed to inject words about the songs like “soaring”\, “pounding”\, “climactic”\, and maybe even a “unrivaled”…… But I just can’t talk like that about my own music. But what I can say is\, just like my bass paying skills….. It’s fucking awesome. we will be on the road this year a lot\, and probably sleeping at many KOA campgrounds this fall. More than likely\, you are reading this because you don’t know shit about me and you are about to interview me for your school paper or local radio station visit (yes\, im in the lobby) and you need to find out a few things about me to talk about. It’s ok. I’m not mad. I’m not very popular and I don’t blame you if you “just aren’t into the music”. You may not have read this far\, or been able to get past the bass playing part\, but if you have\, then I commend you. Let’s talk…. \nend of bio. \n*** \nGreg Holden \n \nWebsite\nFacebook\nTwitter \nGreg Holden is an accomplished musician with a myriad of talents\, but his unending perseverance\, selflessness\, and sincerity stand out.  \nThe British-raised\, Los Angeles-based singer/songwriter has garnered recognition as an independent artist for the past several years and is likely best known for writing American Idol winner Phillip Phillips’ hit debut single\, “Home\,” which sold over five million copies in the U.S. and earned Holden an ASCAP Pop Award. His music has also been featured on notable television shows including Sons of Anarchy\, Private Practice\, and One Tree Hill. In addition to earning praise from industry staples such as Cher\, Tom Hanks\, Josh Groban\, Sara Bareilles\, Michael Bublé\, Zane Lowe\, TIME\, NPR\, and more\, Holden has racked up critical acclaim in the press\, with BuzzFeed hailing his “soaring\, purpose-filled songs that carry real emotional weight\,” Paste lauding his “clear vocals” and “expressive lyrics\,” and Nylon applauding his unique ability to “actually touch the lives of another person with raw\, emotional lyrical poetry.” \nDespite his impressive accolades\, Holden nearly gave up on the music business in the early days of his career. After self-funding his Tony Berg-produced sophomore album\, I Don’t Believe You (2011)\, the label due to release it folded\, thus the promotional efforts for the record. He then went into debt during a sold-out tour of Europe\, so much so that he basically called it quits while on the road. Most artists would have thrown in the towel at this juncture\, but Holden persisted through these setbacks\, leading to the well-deserved\, massive success of “Home.” He then went on to self-fund his third studio album\, the critically acclaimed Chase The Sun (produced by Greg Wells\, 2015)\, later licensing the record through Warner Brothers Records. \nHolden is excited to be back in the ring with his impressive new single\, “On The Run\,” produced by the iconic Butch Walker (Katy Perry\, Panic! At The Disco\, Weezer). The track is an uplifting anthem complete with catchy hooks that perfectly mesh with Holden’s strong\, heartfelt vocals. “ ‘On The Run’ is one of a few songs that was bouncing around in my head when it came to the question of what to lead with after three years on the dark side of the moon\,” says Holden. “Ultimately\, this song felt like the most authentic\, whilst at the same time not being so typically subject heavy that I would scare my listeners away. I’ll save that for the second single…” \n“ ‘On The Run’ is an apology\, obviously. But it’s an apology to a number of people\, for a number of things\,” he adds. “For years I’ve been on the road\, either emotionally or physically absent\, and at times probably a nightmare for partners\, friends\, and family. I wanted to write something that in a way\, said sorry for all that. A way to relinquish some of the guilt perhaps. I recorded it last winter with Butch Walker\, along with some incredibly talented friends. It took a morning\, it was a blast\, and then we were done. It feels right to lead with this one as it came out so naturally.” \nThis summer\, Holden is also set to debut “The Power Shift\,” a political\, call-to-action earworm. Holden produced and wrote the song himself\, and it aligns with his rebellious spirit of pushing back against the status quo. “I was trying to manifest a collective call on the\, for lack of a better word\, bullshit. I think it’s important that when someone is lying to you\, you call them out\,” says Holden. Although there was no singular event or figure who inspired him to write the track\, he notes his frustration with a growing series events around the world. “I was getting tired of screaming into the social media echo chamber and really wanted to put my frustrations into a song that wasn’t so toxic. I’m under no illusion that this is just a song\, but it’s better than a tweet.” \nAdditionally\, Holden has not taken his success in the music industry for granted and at times has worked to prioritize philanthropy and establish his profile as a socially conscious artist. Standout track\, “The Lost Boy\,” (from I Don’t Believe You)\, inspired by a Dave Eggers’ novel about a Sudanese refugee\, was the theme for a Red Cross campaign in The Netherlands that raised over $50\,000 for the organization. His hit single from Chase the Sun\, “Boys In The Street\,” an acceptance anthem that discusses a gay son’s strained relationship with his father\, directly benefited LGBTQ youth by raising money for the Everyone Is Gay organization’s 2014 fundraiser\, The Gayest Compilation Ever Made II. It’s an emotional\, poignant track that Tom Hanks called “The perfect song.” \nNeedless to say\, Greg Holden is an artist to watch in 2018\, with more new music expected later this year. Stay tuned for exciting news to come.
