Adapted by Ella McLaughlin. Directed by Gordon Reinhart.
This fresh, fast-paced comedy, inspired by the Aristophanes play, follows Lysistrata, an Athenian who calls for the women of Greece to help end the Peloponnesian War. She proposes a radical plan: All Greek women must refuse to engage in lovemaking until the men see reason, lay down their arms, and come home to lie down with their wives in peace. The women agree to make the sacrifice and all hell breaks loose as men wander the country in an agony of unsatisfied lust. Will Lysistrata and her crew accomplish what the politicians could not?
Audio Description is available for the performances on October 23rd at 7:30 PM and October 26th at 2:00 PM.

LEISURE
2025-10-29 20:00 | Treefort Music Hall, 722 W. Broad Street, Boise, ID, 83702, United States
Bay Ledges
Bay Ledges delivers a hypnotic form of indie-pop that alters the way we experience time, inviting both a dreamlike nostalgia and heightened attention to the present moment. In the making of Bay Ledges’ sophomore album Rivers, singer/songwriter/producer Zach Hurd brought his inventive musicality to a body of work partly written in response to the death of several family members, infusing each track with equal parts unguarded feeling and unfettered imagination. With its title referring to two distinct bodies of water in his home state of Maine, Rivers arrives as a quietly
enthralling reflection on love, loss, and change.
The follow-up to Bay Ledges’ 2022 debut album Ritual, Rivers expands on its predecessor’s kaleidoscopic sound and embraces an even more free-form approach to songcraft and production. But while the new LP contains some of his most experimental and emotionally layered output to date, its songs remain rooted in the playful spirit, graceful musicianship, and timeless sense of melody first shown on Bay Ledges’ breakthrough single “Safe” (a 2016 release that
reached No. 3 on Spotify’s Global Viral Chart), as well as the effortlessly warm presence he’s brought to the stage in touring with the likes of Goth Babe and Big Wild and performing sold-out headlining shows at such iconic venues as the Troubadour in Los Angeles.
In bringing Rivers to life, Hurd worked entirely on his own at his former home studio on the Androscoggin—a river that flows out to a nearby bay and joins with the Kennebec River, which in turn runs through his hometown of Bath. Before setting to work on the album, Hurd met with his loved ones at the Kennebec and spread the ashes of five family members, including his father and a cousin who died in 2022. “My cousin loved music and it was such a huge part of our connection,” he says. “At first I envisioned making this album for him, but I had a hard time writing with such a specific vision in mind. Once I let go of that idea and let everything flow, I ended up creating something that honors all those people in its own way.”
Newly based in Northern California, Hurd looks back on his time spent living on the Androscoggin as deeply influential on his development as an artist. “During those three years the river became a huge part of my life,” he says. “I’d work on the album and then take breaks and walk along the river, recording voice memos with whatever ideas came to me. After a while I realized that the river is a metaphor for so many things, including writing songs. To me, it’s like fishing in a river— either you’re going to get something or you’re not, and you can’t really force it, but you do have to show up. I think there’s so much power and magic in that.”

Haunted House w/ Dombresky, ero808
2025-10-31 20:00 | Treefort Music Hall, 722 W. Broad Street, Boise, ID, 83702, United States
Dombresky
Music facilitates the transfer of energy from the speakers to the body, to the mind, and to the heart.
Setting off a similar chain reaction, Dombresky immediately incites motion with his distinct and dynamic
approach to house fueled by a passionate pulse. The France-born and Los Angeles-based award-winning
artist, producer, DJ, and Process Records Founder has generated over 100 million streams, ignited
festivals such as Coachella and EDC, packed storied venues as a headliner, and emerged as the rare
phenomenon sought-after for remixes by everyone from Taylor Swift to Louis The Child and Foster The
People.
With clear intent, he moves audiences with a series of 2025 singles, major shows, and more to come.
“I just want to make people dance,” he exclaims. “That’s what I enjoy more than anything. I really try to
put the groove into my sets. Ultimately, this is feel-good music, and I want the crowd to feel happy and
sexy.”
Growing up on a quaint farm in the South of France, his childhood couldn’t have been farther from the
blinding lights of the festivals he’d eventually play. Residing with his parents and two sisters, he spent a
lot of time outdoors, hiking and exploring nature around him. Early on, he gravitated towards R&B, soul,
and New Jack Swing. His first CD was a “History of Hip-Hop” compilation featuring Grandmaster Flash
and more. Around the same time, he discovered Michael Jackson and Prince. Picking up drums, he
studied the instrument for ten years in school, developing a solid musical foundation.
At the age of fifteen, he attended his first rave in the forest. Nothing would be the same afterwards…
“Music was always my ally,” he recalls. “When I saw that DJ, I was instantly like, ‘What is going on? This
is what I want to do now.’”
Armed with a set of turntables, a mixer, and a bevy of vinyl LPs, he taught himself how to DJ, practicing
incessantly throughout his teens. During college, he went from spinning records at parties to landing a
residency at a club in Montpellier for two years. He hit the road and gained invaluable experience on
tour with various artists.
Making a major move, his longstanding love for house inspired him to initially relocate to Miami, FL
during 2016. Adopting the moniker Dombresky, he settled in Los Angeles shortly thereafter. He slowly
but surely stoked buzz with a series of releases, including “Wait,” “Utopia,” and “Rave Alarm” with
Noizu. He took flight with the signature “Soul Sacrifice,” reeling in 46.7 million Spotify streams and
counting. “Simple Hit” accelerated his momentum with 21.1 million Spotify streams. Along the way, he
notably collaborated with everyone from Diplo and Armand Van Helden to Blondish, Claptone, Donnie
Sloan, and Ricky Ducati.
Dombresky leveled up again in 2024. Not only did he unveil the Sound Of The Drums two-pack with
JADED, but he also crafted an official remix of Taylor Swift’s “I Can Do It With a Broken Heart.” Beyond
sets at Lollapalooza, Insomniac’s Day Trip, Snowglobe, Countdown NYE, and more, he sold out shows on
multiple continents, including the Shrine and Palladium in L.A. Amplifying his impact, he launched
Process Radio, earning an Electronic Dance Music Award for “Best Radio Show.” Not to mention, he
founded his own Process Records as a home for upcoming releases.
No matter what he does, Dombresky radiates the kind of energy that inspires and unites.
“House is about love, happiness, dancing, and spending a moment together,” he leaves off. “That’s
exactly what I want to offer. Music is about sharing a moment in communion. I just hope I can bring
people together.”

Sir Chloe w/ Venus & the Flytraps
2025-11-01 20:00 | Treefort Music Hall, 722 W. Broad Street, Boise, ID, 83702, United States
Sir Chloe is the moniker of the musician and artist Dana Foote. She has been known to blend grungy guitar hooks, sharp pop instincts, and a distinctive, emotionally raw vocal style. Sir Chloe draws influence primarily from funeral dirges and early Gregorian chants, channeling artists like PJ Harvey, David Byrne, and Radiohead. Foote shirked her government name and adopted the moniker Sir Chloe in 2017. Her stage presence has been compared to the likes of a “disheveled businessman after a long day,” and a “drunk uncle.” Her debut EP Party Favors (2020) has garnered nearly a billion streams and multiple gold records. The music is taut and emotionally charged, sitting between mainstream ambition and experimental edge.

Margo Price w/ Dillon Warnek
2025-11-08 19:00 | Treefort Music Hall, 722 W. Broad Street, Boise, ID, 83702, United States
Nearly a decade ago, Margo Price turned Nashville on its head with her breakthrough,
beloved debut solo album, Midwest Farmer’s Daughter. Released in the throes of bro-country and
before pop stars were crossing over into the genre left and right, it showcased an artist completely
unafraid to double down not only on herself, but what she’d always loved: classic country songs
written from the intellect and the gut, hell-bent on truth-telling and both timeless and urgent all at
once. Respected by her peers, praised by critics and beloved by her fans, Price created a lane where
independent-minded, insurgent country music can exist and thrive alongside the mainstream, and
became an ardent fighter for her beliefs in a genre where the norm is to shut up and sing. A
trailblazer and a champion for the craft, Price redefined what it meant to be a modern country
artist.
And now she’s back with an exquisite, truly timeless album that reconnects with her roots
and pays tribute to the art of the country song, inspired in part by the legends whom she now calls
colleagues and friends. Hard Headed Woman is both a look forward and a look back: a way to
march forward while staying true to yourself when the path of less resistance is right there in front
of us, and short cuts are around every corner. And a way to look back when we need to trim what
is no longer working, and to stay connected with where we’re from. It is a promise and a manifesto,
a love song to both a city and a genre, and a defiant cry for individuality.
In creating Hard Headed Woman, Price brought all of her power as one of our most
beloved and respected songwriters to craft a deep exploration of love and America in a time of
unprecedented uncertainty. Featuring appearances from Tyler Childers, co-writes with Rodney
Crowell and a Waylon Jennings song that his widow, Jessi Colter, urged her to sing, it is country
music as only Price can make it: free of rules, cherishing tradition, hard headed to the core but
with a delicate, beating heart.
Since releasing Midwest Farmer’s Daughter, Price has barely slowed down. She’s made
four records, played Saturday Night Live, been nominated for a Grammy, toured the world
alongside artists like Chris Stapleton and Willie Nelson, released a lauded memoir (Maybe We’ll
Make It, due on paperback September 2nd), became an in-demand producer and was appointed as
the first female board member of Nelson’s Farm Aid. And she’s been fearless when it came to
genre, venturing into psychedelic rock on her most recent, Jonathan Wilson-produced record,
Strays. It would have been easiest to just stay that course, and keep running. But Price doesn’t
follow success or comfort. She follows the art.
It took a whole lot of hard work and honesty with herself and others to get there, but that’s
never stopped Price before. “I made the decision that I had to rebuild everything from the ground
up,” Price says. “There’s all this pressure to be pumping out content, and I felt the opposite in the
way I wanted to approach this record and my life in general.”
Price had also established herself as one of the most passionate, vocal artists in country
music and beyond when it came to standing up for political and personal causes, from the
presidential election, to abortion to gun control: happily hard headed when it came to the fight for
equality and justice, especially for the working class and underserved in our society. Price has
always brilliantly woven her activism into her songs, but her role as a spokesperson had started to
overtake, on occasion, her role as a songwriter. She wanted to focus on using her written word to
deliver the most potent punch of all.
“I always hope to do like Johnny Cash did,” Price says, “which is speak up for the common
man and woman. But there have been so many threats and anger and vitriol over the years, when
I am only coming from a place of love.”
Price realized she just needed a break from everything outside of the bubble of family life
and her art. She started spending more time at home, writing songs alone and with her husband,
Jeremey Ivey. She started popping up in the dive bars and tiny venues around Nashville where she
got her start, sometimes just to play a country cover or two or dance with the crowd. She refused
guidance to write for pop stars or compromise her values for a quick buck. Most of all, she turned
the emphasis in her music back to songwriting, exactly where she began.
“So much of Strays was leaning into this psychedelic, textural territory,” says Price. The
music lent itself to vibrant, heavy stage jams, with Price often hopping behind the drumkit and
bruising her thigh from a tambourine beat. She found herself longing for the days when it was just
her and her guitar, playing at an East Nashville dive bar. “I always knew,” she adds, “I would come
back to this more rooted sound.”
Hard Headed Woman is rooted to its core. Rooted in Price’s history and struggle to make
it as a musician for so many years in a town that prizes uniformity and the bottom line, rooted in
the country and folk sounds that have become her signature, rooted in the simplicity of a few key
collaborators instead of songs-by-committee. At the heart of Price’s work is her creative
partnership with Ivey, with whom she describes as having a “soul connection.” “I’m a songwriter,”
Price says. “I’m not somebody who goes out and needs five people to craft a song, and then tack
my name on it. That’s never been my style. I have something to say.”
Something to say, nothing to prove. The first song they wrote for the album that would
become Hard Headed Woman was “Close to You,” a simple, pining call for a lover that is infused
with the sounds of the desert. It’s unfettered and truth-telling, accented by some flamenco guitar
and Price’s gorgeous, urgent vocals. “We played the jukebox while democracy fell,” Price sings,
never letting her songs fall out of the context in which they exist. It’s the kind of thing that only
she could write, carrying both love and fear in one single line.
As more songs started to form, an early boost of confidence came from her friends Rodney
Crowell and Emmylou Harris, who heard some of the work at a political fundraiser and encouraged
Price to keep going. “I have both of them to thank for building me up and making me believe in
the songs I am writing in this season of my life,” Price says. Crowell remained not only an
inspiration and supporter of the album but a contributor: he co-wrote two songs with Price and
Ivey.
The album that unfolded from there is drenched in Price’s unique story and unshakeable
instincts: while Midwest Farmer’s Daughter was about her journey from childhood to Nashville,
Hard Headed Woman is very much her battle since from dive bars to tour buses, through
parenthood and marriage, through scrutiny and sacrifice all while fighting constantly for what she
believes in, and the music she loves. It begins with a proclamation on the prelude, which serves as
the album’s mission statement: or, Price puts it, “a disclaimer and reminder that I don’t owe you
fucking shit.”
Songs like the album’s lead single, “Don’t Let the Bastards Get you Down,” speak for the
downtrodden and the forgotten, an “anthem for people who are being overlooked in society and
need to be lifted up,” Price says, “because we are up against so much right now.” As so many of
Price’s songs do, it speaks both for the personal and the political all at once. Price was inspired by
the message Kris Kristofferson whispered to Sinead O’Connor when she was booed on stage at a
Bob Dylan 30th Anniversary show, and even got Kristofferson’s widow’s blessing to include his
name on the credits. “I always admired Kris for how he stood by her in that moment, instead of
pulling her off the stage like they told him,” Price says. It serves as a reminder to anyone who
encounters resistance in the face of fighting for justice to keep going, especially when it would be
so much easier to capitulate and cower.
“The song was originally written for a movie that never happened, but it feels so timely
with everything that’s going on in the world,” Price explains. “The phrase, ‘Don’t Let The Bastards
Get You Down’ originates from Margaret Atwood’s brilliant 1985 piece of literature, The
Handmaid’s Tale. It’s referred to in Latin and used as a rallying cry for resistance against the
oppressive regime that symbolizes resilience and hope in the face of adversity. Nolite te Bastardes
Caborundorum.”
That spirit resonates all across the songs of Hard Headed Woman. The blistering “Don’t
Wake Me Up” was based around some writings that Ivey stumbled upon in one of Price’s
notebooks, inspired in part by her deep readings of Frank Stanford, one of her favorite poets due
to his freewheeling work free of boundaries. They spun it all into song in minutes that chugs with
the essence of Dylan’s “Subterranean Homesick Blues”: “The way this world is going, ain’t where
I’m at,” Price howls in her powerful, unmistakable voice. “Nowhere is Where,” turns slow and
contemplative, road-worn but never broken, the call of someone who has been to the mountain but
never forgets the prairie below. And “Losing Streak” whirls in with an organ and out with a weary,
world-worn defiance: our worst times don’t define us, but they’re always part of who we are.
There are songs that go back to the beginning of Price’s early grind, like the western-tinged
“Wild at Heart,” reflecting on how much her life and the city of Nashville has changed over the
years – and how important it is to stay true to exactly who you are despite it all. Another, called
“Red Eye Flight,” is about both leaving a lover and also leaving her longtime band the Pricetags.
“I’ve been with those players for ten, thirteen years,” she says. “But I could feel that I needed to
make a change, and to change texturally what’s going on with the band. But it’s a familial bond,
different than a friendship.”
There are a few choice covers and cuts, too: “Love Me Like You Used To Do” is by Price’s
friend Steven Knudson, an unsung Nashville writer on whom she hopes to shine a spotlight
(helping to elevate the town’s incredibly talented but buried voices is one of Price’s favorite
pastimes). Friend Tyler Childers joins Price on that waltzing country ballad, while “I Just Don’t
Give a Damn” is Price’s “Jolene goes to Memphis” take on the Jimmy Peppers and George Jones
classic. And showcasing how Price has been trusted by the greats to lead the next generation of
country music renegades, “Kissin You Goodbye” was given to Price by Jessi Colter, Waylon
Jennings’ widow, when Price was producing her record. They’re songs chosen to appreciate the
past and the present as she sees it – not as Music Row or the algorithm might dictate – and place
Price squarely amongst her heroes as a living and breathing part of the new country tradition.
When it came time to record Hard Headed Woman, it was important for Price to keep that
ethos alive, decamping to Nashville’s RCA Studio A and reuniting with producer Matt Ross-
Spang, with whom she made her first two solo albums. Though she has worked with everyone
from Sturgill Simpson to Jonathan Wilson since, it was Spang’s vocal rebuke of easy studio
shortcuts that made her eager to reunite again. “He’s so unpretentious,” Price says. “He fully
believes in me, he fully believes in my songs. He got us back to feeling it in your gut and not
needing everything to be so perfect.”
It felt truly significant for Price to make the album in Nashville, a city where she’s lived
for over two decades and played a seminal role in its transformation, yet somehow never recorded
an album in the place she’s called home. The historic RCA Studio A helped connect Price even
closer to the legacy of songwriting she holds so dear, a place where everyone from Dolly Parton
to John Prine to Loretta Lynn have made albums. “It felt like there were ghosts and spirits just
hanging out,” Price says. In perfect kismet, she also launched her own signature Gibson J-45 guitar,
inspired by her 1960’s Gibson she’s had by her side for years as her career took off. It’s all part of
the continuity that she wishes to create with her art, not just with timeless songs but inspiring future
generations of women, mothers and artists in general who don’t want to sacrifice their vision,
moral compass or family life in favor of mainstream success.
At its core, Hard Headed Woman is about that furious instinct to never waver, especially
when ourselves, our values and our future is so clearly on the line. As she sings on the title track,
“I ain’t ashamed, I just am what I am.”
“I hope this album inspires people to be fearless and take chances and just be unabashedly
themselves,” Price says, “in a culture that tries as hard as it can to beat us into all being the same.”

Dillon Warnek
With the seal of approval of Nashville’s coolest couple Margo Price and Jeremy Ivey,
Dillon Warnek has emerged as one of Music City’s most skillful new songwriters, writing
with all the verve and attitude of Warren Zevon. Rolling Stone raved that his debut
album Now That It’s All Over was full of “wry character studies about con artists and
dead men.” That’s true: Warnek — a construction worker by day, piano balladeer at
night — revels in such tales. He immerses himself in reckless evenings of spending
other people’s money, in hazy mornings waking up in a strange woman’s trailer, and in
fantasies about keeling over with far too many secrets to reveal. Onstage, Warnek holds
court at his keyboard, mixing wry anecdotes in with his subversive lyricism. Some say
there are no good piano men like Randy Newman anymore. But they just haven’t seen
Dillon Warnek.

Emo Nite

Emo Nite

Not a band. Not DJ’s. We throw parties for the music we love.
As Rolling Stone observed a few years ago, “Emo Nite Vindicated the Scene.”
Since 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.
It’s all too easy to forget that before the first Emo Nite in December 2014, “emo” was a joke.
Somehow 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.
But 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.
“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.”
Freed 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.”
“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.’”
There 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.
It’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.
“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.”
“Emo Nite LA has become an essential gathering point for fans of emo, pop-punk, and related styles,” Rolling Stone noted.
In 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.
“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.”
As 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.”
“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.”
The 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.”

WILLIS w/ Winyah
2025-11-09 20:00 | Treefort Music Hall, 722 W. Broad Street, Boise, ID, 83702, United States
WILLIS didn’t blow up overnight — they built something lasting. Formed in Florence, Alabama and now based in
Nashville, the band began in 2016 as five childhood friends making music in a bedroom. Nearly a decade
later, they’ve grown into one of the most loyal followings in modern indie rock — with over 350 million streams, an RIAA Platinum-certified record, and a fully sold-out national headline tour in 2024.
Their breakout track “I Think I Like When It Rains” became a viral anthem, reaching #1 on TikTok’s U.S. chart
in 2023 and remaining in the Viral 50 from 2022–2025. WILLIS made their name where it matters most — the
stage. Night after night, fans show up in Locals Only tees, singing every word like they’ve been there since day one. What started as a quiet DIY movement has become a full-on live experience.
Across their beloved Locals EP series (Locals, Locals 2, Locals 3, Locals 4) and 2024’s debut album I Can’t Thank You Enough, WILLIS has developed a sound that’s warm, rhythmic, and emotionally direct — nostalgic but never stuck in the past. It’s indie rock that leaves a mark.
The band continues to evolve while keeping the same heartbeat that’s been there since the beginning: real
connection, real fans, and music built to outlast trends.

Winyah
Winyah is a 5 piece band from a small town in South Carolina that combines a distinctive blend
of indie and southern rock.

Peter McPoland: Big Lucky Tour w/ Black Salt
2025-11-13 19:00 | Treefort Music Hall, 722 W. Broad Street, Boise, ID, 83702, United States
At just 20 years old, Peter McPoland creates the kind of finespun folk-pop that feels both beautifully lived-in and undeniably original. McPoland picked up guitar at the age of 14 and taught himself to play, finding lessons to be too regimented. Within a year he’d started writing his own songs, mining inspiration from folk artists like John Prine and Gregory Alan Isakov. As shown on breakout hits like his self-released single “Romeo & Juliet,” the Texas-bred artist has an incredible gift for capturing the most nuanced emotional experiences, then bringing that expression to life in idiosyncratic detail.

Lily Rose

Atlanta, Georgia native Lily Rose burst onto the scene with her viral hit “Villain,” instantly propelling her into the national spotlight almost overnight. Signed to Big Loud Records / Back Blocks Music / Mercury Records, Lily toured with country’s hottest stars as she hungrily chased down her dreams and married her wife Daira in 2023. Amidst the whirlwind of success, Lily felt a tug to reassess her priorities and find balance between her career aspirations and personal fulfillment. Out of that period of reflection comes the long-awaited EP and Lily’s first batch of new music since 2022, Runnin’ Outta Time, out now. A co-writer on each track, it’s Lily at her most personal and honest, bundling her beliefs and contradictions into six new songs that explain who she is, where she came from, and where she’s heading. It’s the perfect soundtrack for the intense push and pull in Lily’s life and a potent reminder of how important it is to take a breath and focus on the things that matter most. In this new chapter, Lily embodies the classic dichotomy between Saturday-night energy and Sunday-morning contemplation.
Lily has been on multiple tours with fellow stylistic maverick Sam Hunt and opened shows for country-pop icon Shania Twain, and even experienced her own global pop moment when she sang on Diplo’s 2023 EDM-country banger “Sad in the Summer” as she introduced herself to a whole new group of fans through performances on NBC’s The Voice and ABC’s Good Morning America. She’s already been nominated for ACM Best New Female Artist and took home GLAAD’s Outstanding Breakthrough Music Artist Award in 2022, and now, she emerges with a crisp, edgy new sound and a renewed understanding of what matters most to her. It’s obvious that her dedication to authenticity and personal growth shines through in every note, “I really wanted to achieve and keep achieving and came to realize that it’s not the most important thing,” Lily says. “What I need to achieve most is to be a good wife and a good daughter and a good friend — that will keep fueling the fire for the rest of my career.”

The Brothers Comatose w/ Goodnight, Texas
2025-11-15 19:00 | Treefort Music Hall, 722 W. Broad Street, Boise, ID, 83702, United States
The Brothers Comatose didn’t set out to coin a new genre. To be honest, it was a bit of an accident.
“My brother and I have a lot of respect for bluegrass,” explains guitarist/singer Ben Morrison, “but it was never in our blood. We were raised on California rock and folk and country music, so when we got our hands on some traditional acoustic instruments growing up, that’s just the energy and the attitude we naturally channeled. A fan started calling our sound Golden Grass, and the phrase just felt right.”
So right, in fact, that the band named their intoxicating new album after the moniker. Recorded in the Bay Area with co-producers Greg Holden and Tim Bluhm, Golden Grass cements The Brothers Comatose as the standard bearers of a thriving, innovative West Coast roots movement, one that fuses old school string band instrumentation with singer/songwriter craftsmanship and rock and roll exuberance, all with a deeply rooted sense of place. The songs here are as diverse and enthralling as the Golden State landscape itself—at times carefree and breezy, at times wild and rugged—and the performances are lush and organic to match, propelled by rich vocal harmonies and driving fiddle (Phil Brezina), banjo (Alex Morrison), mandolin (Addie Levy), and upright bass (Steve Height). And while the collection marks the group’s first release with Levy in the lineup, the result is quintessential Brothers Comatose, a warm, joyful reflection on identity and the ties that bind from a band that knows exactly who they are (and exactly where they come from).
“The Golden Grass sound is a little more laidback than high and lonesome,” Morrison explains. “It’s more relaxed than it is refined. It’s got all sorts of natural imagery, from the desert to the ocean to the redwood forests, but at its heart, it’s a campfire jam on the beach where anyone can strum a few chords and join in. The more the merrier.”
That spirit of inclusion has been central to the band from the start. Founded by Morrison and his brother, Alex, in 2008, the San Francisco-based quintet first emerged to widespread acclaim with their 2010 debut, Songs From The Stoop, which helped earn dates with the likes of Gillian Welch & David Rawlings, Greensky Bluegrass, and Trampled By Turtles. In the decade-and-a-half that followed, The Brothers Comatose would go on to release five more full-length LPs (along with a slew of singles and adventurous cover EPs), rack up nearly 50 million streams, land festival slots at Outside Lands, High Sierra, and Hardly Strictly Bluegrass, tour with Lake Street Dive, The Devil Makes Three, and Yonder Mountain String Band, and build up a devoted following thanks to their raucous live shows and relentless schedule.
Life on the road came with a cost, though, and in 2024, longtime mandolinist Greg Fleischut decided to part ways with the group, which had already begun recording Golden Grass during what little free time they could muster.
“We’d always thought it would be cool to have a female voice to hit those high harmonies,” recalls Morrison, who invited Levy to join the band following Fleischut’s departure. “Addie’s such an incredible mandolin and fiddle player, but she’s also a great singer and songwriter in her own right, and at just 23, she brings a really exciting energy to what we do.”
With Levy onboard, the band returned to the studio during breaks from tour to cut the second half of Golden Grass, embracing the new blood and sonic growth while at the same time doubling down on their distinctive genre-bending sound and character.
“This album came together over a long period of time, and it bridges the lineup change,” says Morrison, “so the songs really represent an amalgamation of different periods in our lives. Alex and Addie and Phil all wrote tunes for it, as well, so there’s a lot of variety, but there’s a throughline of live performance that ties the whole thing together.”
That live energy is plain to hear on Golden Grass, which opens with the infectious title track. “Way out west we do it differently / Untraditionally,” Morrison sings in airtight harmony with his bandmates. “We’ll just burn one down / Can you feel it? / Just relax / It’s Golden Grass.” Like much of the album, the tune is a celebration of home and family, one delivered with both earnest sincerity and sly humor (listen closely and you’ll catch shout outs to a host of other California artists, from Jerry Garcia’s bluegrass outfit, Old & In The Way, up through contemporaries like Molly Tuttle and AJ Lee & Blue Summit). The loping “Hills of San Francisco” turns the city’s slanted streets into a metaphor for life’s ups and downs, while the playful “IPA Song” finds humor in the band’s love/hate relationship with their state’s most recognizable beer, and the poignant “Home Again” (featuring Lindsay Lou on vocals) reckons with loss and resilience in the face of the devastating wildfires that have become all-too-regular across the West in recent years.
“We had really good friends lose their house up in the Santa Cruz Mountains, and we’ve been heartbroken watching it happen to so many others all over California,” Morrison explains. “Rather than let it just be a sad song, though, we wanted to capture the beauty that comes with seeing people rebuild and rise from the ashes. We wanted to celebrate the hope that keeps people going through hard times.”
Even when they set their sights beyond California, the band still insists on holding on to that irrepressible sense of hope. The bittersweet “Huckleberry Wine” (written by Alex) revels in the memory of youth and warm summer nights; the exultant “Blue Mountain” (written by Levy) shares a little taste of Appalachia as it embraces the comfort of returning to your roots; and the tender “My Friend” (written by Brezina) celebrates the kind of bonds that transcend time and distance.
“Music has always been rooted in friendship and community for us,” Morrison reflects. “Growing up, our parents used to host parties where all these local musicians would sit around the living room singing and playing together. Somebody left their banjo behind one night, and that’s how Alex and I got started. The rest is history.”
Call it an accident. Call it fate. These days, The Brothers Comatose just call it Golden Grass.

Goodnight, Texas
Conventional wisdom says the two frontmen of a band shouldn’t live on opposite sides of the United States, but that’s never seemed to deter Avi Vinocur and Patrick Dyer Wolf.
Goodnight, Texas is a tough-to-define storytelling folk rock band whose strength lies in unexpected sweet spots. Drawing their name from Pat and Avi’s onetime geographic midpoint (the real town of Goodnight in the State of Texas, a tiny hamlet east of Amarillo directly betwixt San Francisco, CA and Chapel Hill, NC), the five-piece band also exists at the center of its songwriters’ contrasting styles — via a 1913 Gibson A mandolin and a 2015 Danelectro Baritone Guitar, at the crossroads of folk and blues and rock ‘n’ roll, in a place where dry wit and dark truths meet hope and utmost sincerity.
The very top of 2022 brings the band’s highly anticipated fourth album ‘How Long Will It Take Them To Die’, a dark yet lighthearted shoebox of knick-knacks and newspaper clippings – perhaps reflecting on either the last two years of isolation, or the whole of American history. In true Goodnight, Texas fashion, complex but relatable characters and locations are still featured alongside stories of self-discovery, rowdy behavior and heartbreaking loss, but with a more honed sound. Thanks in part to the creative and performative talents of the lineup Scott Padden (drums, upright bass), Adam Nash (lead guitar, pedal steel, violin) and Chris Sugiura (bass), we hear Goodnight, Texas in a more detailed and developed way. Where past Goodnight, Texas albums have traveled cross-country and throughout the 19th and early 20th centuries, this new offering falls on a z-axis somewhere between the aurora borealis and six feet underground.
Of the album’s first single ‘Hypothermic’, singer and co-songwriter Avi Vinocur says:
”Stories from different corners of the American past can often be dark and heavy. Our band’s music has always followed along, telling tales of fiction and non-fiction with sonic landscapes to match. Many of our past songs and albums had taken place in the American South, Northeast, Midwest, and Southwest – but I had written a story in my notebook of a character braving the frigid tundra of Canada by car, north toward the distant U.S. state of Alaska – through hallucinations, paranoia, and exhaustion – to escape something unknown. It matched the sinister sound of this strange heel-thumper I had been working with on guitar – and together they were a perfect pair. “Hypothermic” is the result – our attempt to tell stories of America’s furthest corner, under a darker headlight, and attempting to sonically capture the heaviness of not only America’s past, but its present.”
In March 2020, as the world confronted a new indoor reality, two long minutes of the GN,TX mainstay “The Railroad” found themselves in the intro sequence of the first episode of Netflix’s “Tiger King,” which shattered streaming records with 34 million views in 10 days.
Also in March of 2020, the band released its first live album: “Live in Seattle, Just Before The Global Pandemic.” Jonathan Kirchner recorded, mixed and mastered a weekend of October performances at Tractor Tavern that featured a newly expanded five-man lineup. GN, TX rookie Chris Sugiura brings precision and flair to the bass (and strong hair); grizzled veteran and former GN, TX bassist Adam Nash slides over to lead guitar and pedal steel where he can truly dazzle; extra grizzled veteran and former GN, TX bassist Scott Griffin Padden holds steady behind the kit, beating the hell out of the available objects with aplomb. In a strange and often dark time, here is a totem of life, and a great example of the raucousness and dynamics of the band’s live performance.
In 2021, Goodnight, Texas were invited by Metallica to contribute to The Metallica Blacklist, a collection of reinterpretations of their legendary 1991 album Metallica (the Black Album). Goodnight, Texas was the only band to cover ‘Of Wolf and Man’ gaining praise from press and even Metallica themselves – they used the song over the PA following their live performances in late 2021.
