SUMMARY:Thunderstorm Artis • Great Garden Escape
DESCRIPTION:Thursday\, July 27th\nTHUNDERSTORM ARTIS with Natalie Soma\nas part of the Great Garden Escape series\nALL AGES\n5:30pm gates\, 6pm show \nThunderstorm Artis\nFor his entire life\, singer/songwriter Thunderstorm Artis has stayed devoted to making music that strengthens the heart and awakens the soul. A multi-instrumentalist who got his start playing in a band with his 10 siblings as a little kid\, the 27-year-old Hawaii native has since brought his warm yet powerful vocals and vibrant musicality to such endeavors as touring with Jack Johnson and sharing stages with legends like Booker T. Jones. After years of refining his craft and carving out his singular identity as an artist\, the Oregon-based musician has created his most captivating work to date: a genre-bending batch of songs built on both emotionally raw storytelling and incisive soul-searching\, offering much-needed insight into living with hope even in the darkest of times.\nBorn into an exceptionally musical family—his father Ron was a Motown session player who performed on iconic tracks like Michael Jackson’s “Thriller\,” while his mother Victoria toured as a backup singer for the likes of Lena Horne—Artis grew up in Oahu and started playing drums at age nine\, later taking up piano\, guitar\, and harmonica. Although he’d dabbled in songwriting throughout his childhood\, he found a whole new sense of artistic purpose after using music to cope with the sudden death of his father. “Once I started really focusing on songwriting\, I realized my music could bring healing not only to me\, but to other people in pain\,” says Artis\, who was 13 when his father passed away. Raised on everything from jazz to country to classic soul singers like Sam Cooke and Marvin Gaye\, he immersed himself in sharpening his songcraft and soon began touring extensively with his older brother\, acclaimed singer/songwriter Ron Artis II. With his debut EP Haunted released in 2018\, Artis next emerged as a finalist on NBC’s “The Voice” in 2020\, in addition to becoming a mainstay at Wanderlust festivals throughout North America.\nIn bringing his latest output to life\, Artis worked in Los Angeles with producers John Alagia (NEEDTOBREATHE\, Lukas Nelson & Promise of the Real) and Jesse Siebenberg (Lissie\, Blue Sky Riders) and in Nashville with producer Dan Agee (Jessie James Decker\, The Cains). Spotlighting the stunning range of his voice more fully than ever before\, each song matches his nuanced reflection with a newly expanded sound. “There’s been a lot of change for me over the last few years\, and this music is an embodiment of who I am now\,” notes Artis\, who married his wife Faith McMaster in 2020 and welcomed their first child into the world in 2022. One of the first tracks penned for his new project\, “Take Me to the Fire” unfolds in soulful piano work and moody guitar tones as Artis speaks to the profound transformation that often follows times of struggle. “As I was writing that song\, I was looking at it from the perspective of my religion\,” explains Artis\, who’s dedicated much of his life to working in ministry. “There’s a lot in the text of Christianity about letting go of what doesn’t belong\, and stepping into the person you’re truly meant to be.” Another song deeply informed by his faith\, “Stand Up Eight” arrives as a bold and urgent anthem graced with potent beats and a searing guitar solo. “The idea of falling down seven times and standing up eight comes from the Scriptures\,” says Artis. “It’s about how no matter how much life knocks you down\, you’ve got to have the strength to keep getting back up.”\nA prime showcase for his extraordinary versatility\, Artis’s new body of work also encompasses the cascading folk of “Oh Little River” and the brightly soaring alt-pop of “Surprise” (a gorgeously expressed outpouring of love for his wife). And on “Wildfire\,” Artis sets his introspection to a spellbinding backdrop of tender acoustic guitar and delicate piano melodies. “Of all my new songs\, ‘Wildfire’ really shows a piece of my history\,” he says. “At some point in my life\, I realized I’d put up these walls to protect myself from the pain I felt after losing my dad. But as I got older\, the walls had become more like a prison. ‘Wildfire’ is about how we all need someone to help us burn those walls down\, so that we can find healing instead of hiding from the world.”\nFor Artis\, the work of writing such revelatory songs has become its own form of sustenance. “From a very young age\, music has been like an anchor for me; I really don’t know where it’d be without it\,” he says. “At this point I don’t go anywhere without my guitar—because if I do\, I feel like there’s a part of me that’s missing.” But for all the fulfillment he finds in songwriting\, Artis always keeps an eye toward the potential impact on his audience. “I believe that artists have a responsibility to explain what they’re feeling and put it into their art\, so that others can understand themselves better\,” he says. “So even though I hope my songs give people a better sense of who I am as a person\, I also hope the music makes them feel stronger and helps them to grow. I hope it shows them how to love one another\, and how to love themselves.”\nNatalie Soma\nNatalie Soma is mix of Sara Bareilles meets Alicia Keys- both of which\, who have had the most influence.

SUMMARY:EMO NITE
DESCRIPTION:KNITTING FACTORY – BOISE\n416 S. 9TH ST. – BOISE\, ID 83702\nFRI\nJUNE 30\n9:00 PM\n(DOORS: 9:00 PM)\n18 AND UP \n$1 from every ticket sold will be donated to Living The Dream Foundation. \nNot a band. Not DJ’s. We throw parties for the music we love. \nAs Rolling Stone observed a few years ago\, “Emo Nite Vindicated the Scene.” \nSince they threw their first party at an East L.A. dive bar\, Morgan Freed and T.J. Petracca\, and a dedicated crew of regular attendees\, built Emo Nite into a phenomenon. Top-tier emo artists\, old and new\, curate playlists and perform\, with guest lists boasting members of blink-182\, All Time Low\, Dashboard Confessional\, The Maine\, and Good Charlotte. Scene-friendly pop culture mavericks often participate\, like past attendees Post Malone\, Demi Lovato\, Machine Gun Kelly\, and Skrillex. \nIt’s all too easy to forget that before the first Emo Nite in December 2014\, “emo” was a joke. \nSomehow on its journey from a melodic post-hardcore subgenre\, built on earnest emotional expression\, to a mainstream moniker assigned to anything remotely angsty\, “emo” became a dirty word. Despite the positive impact ushered in by waves of bands\, from the crucial “Revolution Summer” and Sunny Day Real Estate through Taking Back Sunday and My Chemical Romance\, accepting “emo” as a dismissive designation or identity invited polite embarrassment and even scorn. \nBut Freed and Petracca grew up loving the music associated with emo and the people like them who similarly embraced outsider art and subculture\, regardless of changing fashions or pretentious snobbery. Petracca told The New Yorker the idea behind the first Emo Nite celebration was to center a happy\, communal experience on the music they once listened to when they were upset and alone. \n“I sang Dashboard Confessional at karaoke at a friend’s birthday party and thought it was super fun to go out with friends and listen to music we actually liked\,” recalls Petracca\, who met Freed when the pair worked at a creative agency together. “Every other club in LA played EDM\, Top 40\, or hip-hop. We always found ourselves pre-gaming with emo and pop-punk music before we went out.” \nFreed knew a bartender at the Short Stop in Echo Park and convinced him to let them throw a party on a random\, rainy Tuesday. They invited friends via Facebook; double the bar’s capacity turned up. “We decided to see how far we could take it\,” Petracca says. “‘Who would be the craziest guest?’ We invited Mark Hoppus\, and he came! He did our first one at Echoplex\, which was our third party ever.” \n“There’s no disconnect between the artist and fan\,” Freed points out. “I think that’s brought people closer to the music. It created a really strong sense of community\, at a time when emo wasn’t ‘cool.’” \nThere may be a surprise acoustic set or even a full-band performance\, but ultimately\, it’s about the experience. Emo Nite turned a party into a community\, reclaiming the spirit of how the scene began. \nIt’s now a recurring event thrown by dozens of friends in over 30 cities in the United States. Emo Nite runs full-day festivals and curates coveted performance spots at Coachella\, Life is Beautiful\, and Firefly. Freed and Petracca launched successful clothing collaborations with brands like OBEY\, Urban Outfitters\, PLEASURES\, The Hundreds\, Rose in Good Faith\, Market\, and OWSLA. \n“A larger promoter told us the shelf life of a club night in Los Angeles was two years\,” Freed says\, marveling at Emo Nite’s staying power. “A hundred percent of it is the people that go to it. This music makes people feel connected. The energy of it is so special. You get a group of people together who look different\, but they have this thing in common. We started seeing friend groups form really\, really quickly. People met their significant others at these events. The community really trusts each other.” \n“Emo Nite LA has become an essential gathering point for fans of emo\, pop-punk\, and related styles\,” Rolling Stone noted. \nIn October 2021\, Emo Nite’s founders threw Emo Nite Vegas Vacation\, a three-day event headlined by Avril Lavigne and Machine Gun Kelly\, with Sleeping With Sirens\, MOD SUN\, 3OH!3\, and more. \n“What Emo Nite does better than any of their competitors is they make ‘emo culture’ feel both nostalgic and brand new\,” The Summer Set’s Brian Logan Dales told Forbes\, in a profile which included professions of love from members of Papa Roach\, Underoath\, and State Champs. “You can go to an Emo Nite with your best friends and sing along to old songs you grew up with\, and at the same time\, discover a brand-new artist who’s making music today because they grew up on that very same music as you. They’ve taken the emo of the past and helped it forge a new path for the future.” \nAs emo reenters popular culture with a blend of adoring nostalgia and optimistic forward- thinking\, Emo Nite remains an authentic space to celebrate diversity\, experience passionate catharsis\, and champion authentic expression. Emo Nite isn’t a band or a DJ crew. It’s an idea\, one as simple as the urge to throw a party for a beloved style of music. Often imitated but never truly duplicated\, Emo Nite’s founders and supporters are fond of saying\, “If you don’t see the grave\, it ain’t our rave.” \n“There’s a lot of ownership from our community of the event itself and the Emo Nite brand\,” Petracca says. “It’s about breaking down that barrier of ‘Look at me\, it’s all about me.’ No\, it’s about us\, together\, in this room. It belongs to every single person that comes through the door.”\nThe co-founders continue to look ahead. “Emo Nite definitely impacted culture\,” Freed notes. “But we have no plans to stop changing the way we view the evolution and expansion of the genre.”

SUMMARY:INDIGO GIRLS WITH FULL BAND
DESCRIPTION:ARTISTS\nINDIGO GIRLS \nTwenty years after they began releasing records as the Indigo Girls\, Amy Ray and Emily Saliers have politely declined the opportunity to slow down with age. With a legacy of releases and countless U.S. and international tours behind them\, the Indigo Girls have forged their own way in the music business. Selling over 14 million records\, they are still going strong. Amy & Emily are the only duo with top 40 titles on the Billboard 200 in the ’80s\, ’90s\, ’00s and ’10s. \n “Along with Simon & Garfunkel and The Everly Brothers\, Amy Ray and Emily Saliers rank at the very top of all-time great duos. The sublime music-making-machine-skewering “Making Promises” is one of their finest rockers.” – The Boston Herald \nAfter signing to Epic Records in 1988\, the Indigo Girls released their critically acclaimed eponymous album to thunderous praise; it remained on the Billboard Hot 100 Chart for 35 weeks\, earned double platinum status\, received a Grammy nomination for “Best New Artist” and won “Best Contemporary Folk Recording.”  They were overnight folk icons who continued to live up to the high standards they’d set for themselves: they’ve since released 14 albums (3 platinum and 3 gold)\, received six Grammy nominations and have won one. Indigo Girls have toured with innumerable star acts including Neil Young\, Emmylou Harris\, Joan Baez\, R.E.M.\, Sarah MacLachlan\, Natalie Merchant\, Jewel and Mary Chapin Carpenter. \nThe duo has balanced their long\, successful musical career by supporting numerous social causes – the Indigo Girls don’t just talk the talk; they walk the walk.  Having established an intensely dedicated fan base\, the duo continues to remain relevant and attract new fans. With their latest release\, Beauty Queen Sister\, released on IG Recordings distributed by Vanguard Records\, Emily Saliers and Amy Ray have secured their spot as one of the most legendary musical acts of this generation. \n“Their 14th studio album finds the Indigo Girls operating as powerfully as at any time in their career\, on a set of uncommonly strong songs performed with the kind of typically understated Nashville polish that affords their signature harmonies the full spotlight.”  ˜˜˜˜– The Independent (UK) \nIn 2015 Indigo Girls released their 14th studio album\, One Lost Day\, produced by Jordan Brooke Hamlin and mixed by Brian Joseph.

SUMMARY:PAUL CAUTHEN
DESCRIPTION:Want to get a bead on Paul Cauthen? \nGood freakin’ luck — especially on his third album\, COUNTRY COMING DOWN. \nSuffice to say that the singer\, songwriter and proud son of Tyler\, Texas — steward of a rich\, resonant\, bass-leaning tenor dubbed Big Velvet — covers a lot of ground and embodies a lot of characters. He’ll tell you right off the bat that he’s “Country As Fuck\,” throwing down a wad of “Fuck You Money” and heading into the night to “Cut a Rug.” His “Country Clubbin'” has as much to do with swinging as his swing. But a song or two later dude’s vowing to be loving his wife “Till the Day I Die” and\, in COUNTRY COMING DOWN’s title track\, dreams of living in “a cabin in the country\, far away from the city lights” where “life is slow and easy.” \nThe fact that all of that exists within the same guy\, who’s full of good humor\, sharp wit and a heart as big as his home state is what makes Cauthen someone who’s easy\, and exciting\, to spend 10 songs with. \n“Y’know\, you got your bangers and you got your ballads\,” Cauthen acknowledges. “You got your meaningful songs where you’re opening up more of your vulnerable side\, and then you’re putting on a fucking show — all in one album. And it’s all honest\, I’ll tell ya that. Everything on there is something I’ve felt or thought before.” \nCOUNTRY COMING DOWN has been in motion awhile\, actually. The title track\, one of several co-writes with good Nashville pal Aaron Raitiere\, has been around since before Cauthen’s dark sophomore album ROOM 41. Its sense of campfire calm and “damn near off the map” idyll set a bar\, for both music and lifestyle\, that Cauthen aspired to\, while the rest of the new album\, recorded at Modern Electric Sound Recorders in Dallas with regular collaborators Beau Bedford (Texas Gentlemen) and Jason Burt (Medicine Man Revival)\, shows that Cauthen was able to get there without losing any of the playful “hot dog holly golly dagnabit” good-time spirit that rolls off his tongue like a tumbleweed in the west Texas panhandle. \nAs he promises in “Country As Fuck\,” “I ain’t gotta sell my soul. If I want it then I grab it.” \n“I’m having fun\,” Cauthen says. “I’ve finally figured it out. I’m more settled and comfortable. I know I’m good at making records and great at entertaining. That’s my gift more than anything\, to be able to get up there and deliver these songs to people.” \nThat gift is part of Cauthen’s DNA\, of course\, from a family deeply steeped in music. Texan on both sides\, his paternal grandfather went to school with Hank Williams while his maternal grandpa\, who worked with Buddy Holly and the Crickets during his youth\, introduced Cauthen to singing. His grandmother taught him to play piano\, while his grandfather and great uncle were the song leader and preacher\, respectively\, of the local Christian Church of Christ. \n“Yeah\, I had no choice\, really” Cauthen says now. “(Music) is what I call my birddog trait; You don’t have to tell a birddog to jump in the river and grab the duck and bring it back to you. And you don’t have to tell me to get up on stage and perform. That’s what I’m supposed to do. My family enjoyed watching me perform when I was a kid; I would get up in front of everybody at Christmas with my guitar and play ‘Jackson’ with my grandmother. I learned my trade\, y’know?” \nCauthen pursued that trade into young adulthood\, showcasing at Cheatham Street Warehouse in San Marcos and forming the duo Sons of Fathers\, whose early albums were produced by Lloyd Maines. After the group ran its course\, Cauthen set off on his own in 2016\, recording MY GOSPEL partly in Muscle Shoals\, AL.; The album made Rolling Stone’s list of Top 40 Country Records that year.  2018’s HAVE MERCY EP began his association with Bedford and featured contributions by other members of the Texas Gentlemen\, and also led to Cauthen’s Grand Ole Opry debut as a solo artist on June 22\, 2018.\n​\nThe critically acclaimed ROOM 41\, meanwhile\, chronicled and exorcised a rough period in Cauthen’s life\, marked by a romantic breakup\, substance abuse\, depression and anxiety issues. “My growing years were like going to college\,” Cauthen confesses. “I just got screwed so many times by so many different people on this whole freakin’ journey. I had this void I was trying to fill in my heart\, with booze or any type of\, just\, abuse. I made every stupid mistake you can make in the business\, and in life\, in order to learn ’em all. \n“I don’t feel that hurt anymore. I’ve changed.” \nMarriage helped\, he says. So did cleaning house and restructuring the business operation that surrounded him. That allowed Cauthen to plunge into COUNTRY COMING DOWN with a lighter heart and wicked humor — one that allowed him to find the profound meaning in a “schmoozie bougie brouhaha.” \nIf you want to know what that sounds like\, tuck into the album’s sonic array\, an austere\, sinewy attack that puts Cauthen’s vocals dead center in the ride. “We’ve really unleashed Big Velvet in this situation\, which I love\,” he says. Nowhere is that more true than “Country As Fuck\,” with a taut groove and loping gait tailor made for a 21st century honky tonk. Cauthen\, Bedford and Burt play with that template throughout COUNTRY COMING DOWN\, punctuating “Caught Me At a Good Time” with a sharp guitar solo\, “High Heels” with a tasteful Wurlitzer break and the satiristic “Country Clubbin'” with a disco beat and chorus of female backing vocals. \nBut just when you buy in — and happily convert — to Cauthen’s brand of unapologetic hedonism\, the soul comes out. “Till The Day I Die” smoothes his raw heart with the promise of true and lasting love\, while the stock-taking “Roll On Over” takes a wistful look in his rearview mirror. And “Country Coming Down” realizes a dream of calm — although not exclusive of the next sojourn with “Champagne & a Limo.” \nI’m always on a quest\, sonically\,” Cauthen explains. “I was wanting to go at this just serving the song\, more\, ‘What does this call for?’ rather than worrying about genre or sonic palette or any certain sound. I had a lot of these songs brewing for a long time\, and we just let them grow on their own.” \nHis muse fully engaged\, Cauthen is looking towards doing more of that in the future\, with a few conceptual ideas up his sleeve about what he might do next.  No matter what direction he takes\, however\, he won’t be abandoning that cabin in the hills or the “Country Clubbin'” life; Cauthen will just be adding more to the mix he’s stirred together. \n“It’s just about looking at yourself in the mirror and knowing that what you’ve done to this day has been in good standing\, with good morals and a good compass in life\, driven the right way\,” he says. “Legacy is all we have — that\, and try to be a good person as well.
