NO DREAM​ is the fourth full-length from Jeff Rosenstock. It comes at a time of unparalleled chaos and confusion, division and despair, the depths of which would have been impossible to predict when much of it was being written over the course of the last few years. And yet the record feels prescient, unexpectedly and uniquely suited for this moment.
“It was feeling like a very personal record for me,” says Rosenstock, newly settled in Los Angeles after a lifetime on the opposite coast. “A lot of it was stemming from the anxiety I was feeling from the last two years, this existential crisis of wondering who I am.” Rosenstock has found himself in a surprising position. As he puts it simply: “I didn’t expect to be doing well, in my life, ever.”
After building a cult following with the acerbic ska-punk of the Arrogant Sons of Bitches and DIY heroics of Bomb the Music Industry!, Rosenstock’s first proper solo record, 2015’s ​We Cool?​, was a step into uncharted territory, fully untethered from genre and expectation. Followed by 2016’s ​WORRY.​ and the surprise New Year’s Day launch of ​POST-​ in the early hours of 2018, Rosenstock was facing down that least punk of opportunities: a career playing music.

ANUHEA
The name “Anuhea” translates from Hawaiian as a cool upland fragrance. In the world of island/reggae music, Maui songbird Anuhea Jenkins has been JUST that: A cool breeze to the island music scene. This multi-talented artist beautifully blends reggae, pop, R&B, rap and country music into an eclectic style all her own. Anuhea has earned multiple prestigious Na Hoku Hanohano Awards as well as the iHeart Radio Island Music Award for Female Artist of the Year in 2019. A proud advocate for mental health and education Anuhea is the host of the “Just Keep Jamming” podcast, and the founder of the “Aloha Always Foundation” scholarships. Her work ethic is paralleled by her fun-loving personality, and is a self proclaimed “cool mom” to her son Ikena. She has shared the stage with artists like Bruno Mars, FloRida, SOJA, and Brett Young just to name a few, while performing throughout Hawaii, the U.S. and internationally. With 15 successful years in the music scene, dozens of hit songs and multiple awards, Anuhea remains humble when she’s rightfully referred to as one Hawai’i’s top female musical artists of all time.
Kimié Miner
Kimie Miner is a Grammy Nominated Producer, Singer-Songwriter, Recording Artist, Music Publisher and owner of Haku Collective a full-service music, audio, and talent production group. She wrote and co-produced 4 albums including, To the Sea, Kimié Miner (Contemporary Album of the Year, Nā Hōkū Hanohano awards), Proud as the Sun and most recently Hawaiian Lullaby.
In 2018, she won Female Vocalist of the Year and Song of the Year for her song “Bamboo” (Nā Hōkū Hanohano Awards). In 2018, she also won Female Artist of the Year at the Island Music Awards. She sits on the Board of Governors for the Recording Academy (Pacific Northwest Chapter) and the Hawaii Academy of Recording Arts. She is also a Recording Academy district advocate for music creators’ rights.
Kimié’s parents, who are of Hawaiian and Portuguese descent, noticed her affinity for music at a very young age, and at 14-years-old she taught herself to play guitar and began writing her own original songs. While attending Kamehameha Schools as a boarding student on Oʻahu, she honed in on her songwriting. She found inspiration in a wide range of music from Hawaiian, Jazz and R&B-influenced individuals such as Israel Kamakawiwo’ole, India.Arie, Lauryn Hill, and Eva Cassidy. While an undergraduate at the University of San Diego, Kimié embarked on her first west coast American tour at age 19 with reggae star Barrington Levy. Following the tour Miner resided in Clarendon, Jamaica for a few months to write and work with Levy in the studio.
Kimié champions the idea that one should remain true to who they are and to approach their experiences with the pride of their heritage. Her songs regularly evoke the Hawaiian concept of the Piko: the “naval” or “center” which represents a home base to which one can always return. She notes that “As Hawaiians, we have our roots and our routes. We know who we are, and we take that knowledge with us when we navigate and explore the rest of the world.”
Kimié continues to be a hardworking entrepreneur and mother of three young children while running Haku Collective, established in 2016. The mission of Haku Collective is to support Hawai’i-based music artists & offer 360 degrees of support to run a sustainable music career. Established by artists for artists, Haku Collective is a Native Hawaiian boutique music and immersive product company located on the island of O’ahu, united by their shared love of music and their community.

Highly Suspect
2023-12-11 20:00 | Knitting Factory, 416 S 9th St, Boise, Idaho, 83702
Two Time Grammy-nominated, festival-storming trio Highly Suspect, are returning with second album The Boy Who Died Wolf on November 18th. The moving, jubilant LP from the Brooklyn alt-renegades follows two Top 10 Mainstream Rock hits (“Lydia,” “Bloodfeather”) and two Grammy nominations (Best Rock Song, Best Rock Album) just one year from the release of their 300 Entertainment debut, 2015’s Mister Asylum. For the follow-up, the band — Johnny Stevens (guitar/vocals), and fraternal twin brother rhythm section Rich (bass/vocals) and Ryan Meyer (drums/vocals) — are reappearing stronger, livelier and more mature.
“The title The Boy Who Died Wolf, its like, we were so young and now we’re adults,” says Stevens. “I went through a lot of issues that I had to sort out and sometimes I cant believe that I’m alive. And now here I am traveling the world with my best friends, making music, and living the exact dream that we had set out to accomplish a long time ago … We’re learning a different lifestyle. And it’s good, it’s positive. But it’s also hard to let go of everything that happened in the past.”
That new lifestyle comes in the wake of success that’s snowballed since 2014, featuring Grammy nods; radio smashes; stops at major festivals (Lollapalooza, Bonnaroo, Reading and Leeds and so on); tours alongside Scott Weiland, Chevelle and Catfish & the Bottlemen to name a few; tours around the world including Australia, New Zealand, Europe and the UK as well as multiple headlining tours in the United States one of which is currently underway. The feeling of celebration infuses The Boy Who Died Wolf, while still heading into haunted regions of Steven’s past, yowling somewhere between the metronomic robot metal of Queens of the Stone Age, the bluesy wallop of Jack White and the feedback-shrieking noise-pop of In Utero-era Nirvana.
To record the LP, the band traveled far from their New York comfort zone to Bogotá, Colombia, recording with Mister Asylum producer Joel Hamilton (The Black Keys and Wu-tang, Tom Waits, Elvis Costello,).

“A strong voice and a band with horns – great combination.” – John Mitchell — Blues Matters
The multi-award-winning Rae Gordon Band serves up a potent stew of gritty blues and heartfelt soul – soaring vocals with searing guitar counterpoint, high-energy horns and a hard-driving rhythm section with the power of a freight train.

She made an incredible impression.”), the band released its third CD Better Than I Was, which has received airplay in the U.S., Canada, Australia and the UK and appeared on the Living Blues Radio Chart and the Roots Music Report Soul Blues Album Chart.

SIDEPIECE- HOME RUN TOUR
2023-12-15 19:00 | Treefort Music Hall, 722 W. Broad Street, Boise, ID, 83702, United States
While Dylan Ragland and Ricky Mears meant to start a side project, they weren’t totally expecting to create SIDEPIECE, the GRAMMY-nominated house duo that’s clocked more than 362 million global streams since its inception.
The two producers – Ragland makes music as fan favorite Party Favor and Mears produces as dancefloor igniter NITTI – first linked via DM in 2019 to share track ideas. Sensing their musical chemistry, they jumped on Facetime. By the end of the call, they’d registered the @youasidepiece social handles and their own figurative side piece had been born.
“It started out as a fun passion project because we both love and care about house music,” says Ragland, “but it’s grown so much bigger than we originally planned.”
Indeed, success came fast for the pair. SIDEPIECE’s second single, the 2020 Diplo collaboration “On My Mind,” aggregated more than 222 million Spotify streams and earned the trio a 2021 GRAMMY nomination for Best Dance Recording. A flurry of hit singles have followed, with SIDEPIECE carving out a signature sound rooted in catchy vocals – “the most important element,” says Ragland – and the ever-intoxicating bump and grind house groove. Spanning tech house, bass house and beyond, tracks including “Acrobatic,” “Temptation,” “Sextacy” and their latest — the steamy dancefloor heater “Reborn” — are quintessentially SIDEPIECE: party-starting club records with a pop-lean and serious sex appeal.
“Huge streaming numbers are cool,” says Mears, “but seeing people in the crowd singing along to the song, that makes it all feel real.”

Gill Landry
2023-12-20 19:00 | The Sapphire Room, 2900 W Chinden Blvd, Boise, ID, 83714, United States
Gill Landry is a two-time Grammy award-winning singer/songwriter, multi-instrumentalist, storyteller, visual artist, and writer.
Gill Landry is a two-time Grammy award-winning singer/songwriter, multi-instrumentalist, storyteller, visual artist, writer, etc. With a career spanning over two decades, he’s released five solo albums on multiple labels as well as contributing to numerous collaborations with a diverse array of other artists. His journey has also taken him on countless extensive tours across the United States and abroad.
Born and raised between the musical landscapes of Louisiana and the Pacific Northwest, Gill began honing his craft as a busker between New Orleans, the West Coast, and Europe. In 2004, he joined Old Crow Medicine Show, who he worked with from their van-and-trailer days at dive bars and dance halls to the main stages of festivals, Grammy triumphs, and induction into the Grand Ole Opry. In 2015, Gill decided to part ways with the band, dedicating himself entirely to his solo creative pursuits.
Though under the Americana umbrella, each of Gill Landry’s solo albums is a testament to his versatility and his ability to craft music that defies easy categorization. While his musical styles may range widely from song to song and album to album, his writing consistently reflects a profound, honest, and often poetic exploration of the vicissitudes and joys of love and life. His debut solo album, ‘The Ballad of Lawless Soirez,’ was released in 2007 during his tenure with Old Crow on Nettwerk Records. In 2011, ‘Piety & Desire’ followed, produced in collaboration with The Felice Brothers and featuring guest artists such as Brandi Carlile and Jolie Holland. His eponymous third album, released in early 2015 on ATO Records, and featured a duet with Laura Marling and a rich tapestry of talented collaborators. In 2017, ‘Love Rides A Dark Horse’ was released the ATO and Loose labels. Gill’s most recent record, ‘Skeleton At The Banquet,’ was recorded in Los Angeles with producer/bassist Seth Ford-Young (known for his work with Tom Waits and Edward Sharpe), and was released just weeks before the onset of the pandemic.
A seasoned road dog, Gill has shared stages with an eclectic array of artists, including Laura Marling, Justin Townes Earle, Brandi Carlile, Michael Hurley, Ben Harper, Mumford & Sons, Bruce Hornsby, Warren Haynes, Andre Williams, and Nathaniel Rateliff, among others. In 2012, he played a pivotal role in the creation of the film ‘Austin to Boston,’ not only co-writing and narrating it but also performing and navigating every mile of the journey in a 1970s Volkswagen Bay Window. The documentary chronicled a 3000-mile tour from SXSW to Boston, featuring the musical talents of Nathaniel Rateliff, Ben Howard, Bears Den, and The Staves. Additionally, he’s in the Grammy-winning film ‘The Big Easy Express,’ which documented a train tour from San Francisco to New Orleans with Old Crow, Mumford and Sons, and Edward Sharpe and the Magnetic Zeros.
Presently, Gill lives on a ranch in the Sierra Nevada Foothills of California, communing with nature and finishing up his next album ‘Cinnamon Canyon Blues’ which was produced in London with his friend Ted Dwane from Mumford and Sons and will be released in early 2024.

A Very JCDC Christmas
2023-12-21 19:00 | The Sapphire Room, 2900 W Chinden Blvd, Boise, ID, 83714, United States
Seattle Country Queen Darci Carlson and Boise Native Jeff Crosby return to The Sapphire for a special acoustic show with Christmas flair!
Darci Carlson – delivers a true country performance of foot stompin’ originals and classic country favorites drenched in hardcore twang. This isn’t Punk Country or a vanity act. This is a no non-sense, throwback, true country affair. A natural story teller, her songs highlight tales of her truth, youth, and lawless adventures, no matter how ‘wild, reckless & crazy’. Her smokey sweet lived-in voice reminiscent of the after taste of a shot of whiskey, has been compared to other leading ladies in the Country and Rock Genres such as Bonnie Raitt, Tammy Wynette, Patty Loveless, Miranda Lambert, and Courtney Love.
Jeff Crosby- has been sharing his unique perspective of Americana throughout the US and Europe over the past decade. After moving to Los Angeles CA in 2012, Crosby landed 2 songs on the hit FX series Sons of Anarchy which has led to the band continually performing over 200 shows a year throughout the US and Europe.Additionally, Crosby spent 2015-16 on the road playing lead guitar for Widespread Panic song-writer Jerry Joseph, as well as for Austin Texas road warriors Reckless Kelly in 2019. Crosby has co-written songs featured on Austin TX band Micky & The Motorcars recent release Long Time Comin’ and Reckless Kelly’s American Girls/American Jackpot.After spending 3 years based in Nashville TN, Crosby has returned to Idaho and will continue to tour with his band full-time in support of his most recent release NORTHSTAR (APRIL 2020) and the current single “Runnin’ Free” (MAY 2021) feat.

Marcus Eaton
2023-12-22 19:00 | The Sapphire Room, 2900 W Chinden Blvd, Boise, ID, 83714, United States
Marcus Eaton is a groundbreaking original musician known best for his virtuoso guitar playing, vocal work and songwriting.
Hailed by two-time Rock & Roll Hall of Fame inductee David Crosby as “one of the best young singer-songwriters in America…maybe even the world”, Marcus Eaton is proud to announce the release of Invisible Lines – his fourth solo record.
Following the success of his 2016 solo LP Versions of The Truth, Marcus has emerged as one of the leading lights of the new generation of American singer-songwriters. Through passionate and intelligent lyrics in songs reminiscent of Ed Sheeran and John Mayer, Marcus’ music draws the listener into an intimate experience. Coupled with a virtuoso, original guitar technique, songs of love and metaphysics all wrapped in an original singing voice are performed by an artist described by Crosby “as like God – on a good day.”
Marcus has an extensive touring history and having had his own band, Marcus Eaton Trio, he now primarily performs solo. Marcus has opened for artists such as Bob Dylan and Dave Matthews, Nils Lofgren, Dr John and Rodrigo Y Gabriela. A very busy couple of years which included gigs in LA with Seal and Flea, solo tours across Europe and scoring the soundtrack to the acclaimed David Crosby documentary ‘Remember My Name’ have seen Marcus working at the peak of his creativity, the end result of which is the release of this brand new record.

JOSHY SOUL CHRISTMAS
2023-12-22 19:00 | Treefort Music Hall, 722 W. Broad Street, Boise, ID, 83702, United States
JOSHY SOUL
Joshy Soul is an artist who finds his stride amongst the things he knows best: art and soul. As a performer, writer, producer, art director, stylist, fashion model, and roller-skating provocateur, his medium traverses first note to the last, first thread to final seam, and curtain draw to fall. His craft of art and soul varies as much as the clothes he struts. Through Joshy’s love of skating and fashion he has planted himself in the modeling and influencing zeitgeist as one that evokes feelings through the way he dresses and the way he moves. About his debut single he says, “‘Celebration’ is about living your best life even if everyone around you isn’t on your wavelength. We all have something to celebrate!”
Based in Long Beach, CA, Joshy Soul has soaked up every hint of inspiration during his journey. At an early age gospel music was a critical thread of his youthful fabric. His grandmother from New Orleans would sing hymns of the religious South throughout their house, and this lit a musical fire in his heart that would eventually manifest itself into Joshy Soul. It was the clanging of the piano, hallowing of harmonies, and the impenetrable truth of music that rang true to Joshy. Today, Joshy finds himself in the midst of some of music’s finest that Los Angeles has to offer. Tori Kelly, YouTube sensation AJ Rafael, Phoebe Bridgers, and Moses Sumney — who studied music alongside Joshy under Alex Boyé at Riverside Community College.
When with his former outfit ‘The Cool’ Joshy Soul amassed a noteworthy gigography including sold out shows at the Egyptian Theater and Gallivan Plaza in Salt Lake City, headlining the Treefort Music Festival, performing at Hard Rock’s Miami Dolphins Stadium, performing with Nick Murphy, and supporting the likes of Phoebe Bridgers, The Roots, Cat Power, Haley Reinhart, and more.
Additionally, Joshy Soul’s fashion achievements include features with Taft Ambassador, GQ Portugal, Scotch Porter, Pitti Immagine, Topman, Naked Wolfe Shoes, Scotch & Soda, and more.
Fonteyn
UK native Fonteyn spent her formative years pursuing Musical Theatre and acting in England, but it wasn’t until she started making music that she felt able to express herself authentically. Writing songs provided a home for her idiosyncrasies to coexist. Bewitched by the sound of the 70’s, Fonteyn draws from her musical idols, Carole King, Todd Rundgren and Paul McCartney, to name a few. Her debut album “Trip the light Fantastic offers music centered around rainbow chords and melody. The songs are playful, sentimental, and offer a sense of the theatrical. Fonteyn wants to take you by the hand and sweep you into another time and place.

AFROSONICS 2024 BLAST OFF
w/ Sunsmith, Mungo, Boss Elvice aka Mr Wanted & Natalie
In a world of negative messages we represent a positive hope to bring a harmonious voice to all. Out of the desire to bring communities together, Afrosonics creates music featuring a collective of musicians from the Middle East, Europe, Africa, South America and the United States. At the heart of the group’s progression, the band has conscientiously integrated new American musicians (former refugees from war torn areas of the world) into the collective that is Afrosonics. The genre twist deepens with the infusion Idaho musicians into the collective with roots in country, rock, jazz and opera. Every nation voices bring many paths together in one musical destination.

His band, consisting of Lyle “Pops” Evans, Flip Perkins, Sam Rothwell, and Dave Manion, are some of the best players Idaho has to offer. Having played all over the country, Corey has built a reputation for his songwriting and playing style. Corey won the 2023 ISSA GOLD award for “Male Emerging Artist”, and the World Songwriting Award for “Best Traditional Country Song,” as well as a handful of other nominations.
The music Corey creates has a wide eclectic range of influences. “My father introduced me to Bob Dylan, The Byrds, and The Rolling Stones at a very young age and I was immediately drawn to that type of stuff. My grandfather introduced me to Hank Williams and Tennessee Earnie Ford, I had already been playing a lot of old rock and roll and old folk music when he passed away in ‘09.I started listening to Hank Williams religiously… I sort of saw it as a way to still be connected to my grandfather.” Corey’s music truly resonates the influences he draws from the above artists, but you can feel his personal touch on the music he creates. -Music Mondays 208

Pixie and The Partygrass Boys may be far from their humble beginnings, but they still don’t take themselves too seriously. What began as a group of ski bums playing house parties in the Cottonwood Canyons of Salt Lake City has evolved into a nationally touring band that always aims to have the most fun possible. Along with the skill and expertise that comes from nearly a decade of performing together, they bring the energy of closing weekend at your favorite ski resort to the stage. They have captivated audiences across the nation with their unique blend of heartfelt songwriting, high velocity instrumental excellence, silly outfits, and sing-along anthems. Pixie and The Partygrass Boys invite the audience into their world every time they take the stage, hoping to share a piece of the magic they’ve found on the mountain tops and in the desert canyons of their Utah home.
Pixie and The Partygrass Boys have been touring extensively since the release of their 2018 debut EP “Utah Made,” becoming a five-year fixture at WinterWonderGrass as well as gracing the stages of High Sierra Music Festival, Gem and Jam, Delfest, Jam Cruise, Hangtown, Sawtooth Valley Gathering, Bourbon and Beyond, and countless venues across the USA. They have supported such prestigious acts as Billy Strings, The Infamous Stringdusters, The Brothers Comatose, and Lake Street Dive. They recently signed on with record label Americana Vibes and are eagerly awaiting the release of their 4th album, “The Chicken Coop Sessions: Vol. 1,” which harkens back to their origins, paying homage to the covers that brought them together for those canyon house parties so many years ago.
