They incorporate a variety of sounds\, ranging from alternative roots to acoustic rock while promoting social change. Their album HOKA debuted at #10 on Billboard’s Rock Album Chart and #6 on the Alternative Album Chart. \nNahko’s solo album\, My Name is Bear\, debuted on a number of Billboard charts including Independent Albums (#11)\, Tastemakers (#14)\, Emerging Artists (#19)\, Top Album Sales (#43)\, and Top 200 Albums (#170). The album also premiered at #1 on iTunes and the headline tour in support of it boasted multiple sold-out dates both stateside and in Europe. My Name is Bear is a 16-track collection that reflects the soul\, authenticity\, and spirit that Nahko’s fans have come to know. It predates Nahko’s rise to mythos among diehard fans of Medicine For The People. As he puts it\, the album serves as a “prequel\,” that artfully merges rustic acoustic guitars\, upbeat energy\, tribal flavors\, fiery percussion\, and ponderous lyrics. At the end of the day\, My Name is Bear\, sets the stage for a whole lot more from Nahko.

SUMMARY:Walter Trout w/ Katie Knipp
DESCRIPTION:Great artists take the pulse of their times. In his half-century as a street-level social observer and scaldingly honest songwriter\, blues-rock’s resilient icon Walter Trout has never told his fans what to think\, how to feel\, where to stand politically\, or what to scrawl on their protest placards. But in an era when his home nation – and the wider world – is ripping at the seams over the battlelines of modern life\, the iconic US bluesman’s hard-rocking new album\, Sign Of The Times\, is the primal scream and pressure valve we all desperately need. “I wanted to convey the anger and angst going\non in the world\,” explains the 74-year-old. “For me\, writing these songs is therapy. They’re not just about what’s happening out there\, but how it affects you in your head. Sign Of The Times just became the obvious title…” \nRight now\, it feels like the amps have barely cooled from 2024’s Broken (“That record debuted on Billboard at #1 – I was very\, very pleased with that”). But the era-chronicling songs from Sign Of The Times wouldn’t wait\, these urgent riffs flying off the guitarist’s fingers\, assisted once again by Dr Marie Trout\, Walter’s wife\, manager and latterly co-writer\, whose eloquent lyrics struck each subject on the head. “This album flowed pretty easily\,” he reflects of the writing process. “I had so many song ideas and pages of lyrics from Marie. We could have kept going and made a triple album.” \nWith ten new songs written and arranged\, Trout was ready to call up his studio band – longtime drummer Michael Leasure\, bassist John Avila and keys man Teddy ‘Zig Zag’ Andreadis – for sessions at producer Thomas Ross Johansen’s Strawhorse Studios in Los Angeles. Immediately\, the tinderbox subject matter sparked one of the toughest-sounding records in his catalogue. “Let me put it this way\,” considers Trout\, “after we finished recording the title track\, my keys player Teddy said\, ‘Well\, you won’t be winning a blues award this year’. But I really felt like rocking on this album. We had\nheavy things to talk about\, and we went for it musically too.” \n\n \n\nKatie Knipp\nThis is unquestionably the blues\, but a new shade.  Her fourth top ten Billboard charting album\, Me\, brings Knipp’s hard-fought personal and musical self awareness to the forefront of the contemporary Blues landscape. From sultry to social justice\, Katie Knipp dives all the way in\, teaming her refreshing vulnerability with expert level musicality and composition. Knipp’s unique euphony and passionate storytelling has propelled her career to new heights\, independently paving new ground.  Alongside Katie on vocals\, piano\, and guitar\, her band features Pancho Tomaselli on bass (War\, Tower of Power\, Philm)\, Steve Utstein on the B3 (Cafe R and B\, Bo Diddley\, Junior Wells\, Lonnie Brooks)\, Chris Martinez on guitar (Sac Blues Hall of Fame\, Guitar Mac\, Arbess Williams)\, and Neil Campisano on drums (4 top 10 Billboard albums). \n“Her songwriting is really classic sounding but also out of the box\, which is tough to do. Katie’s powerful delivery is natural and authentically rooted in that classic gooshy saturated 70’s rock. I love it. She reminds me of like a Nor-Cal Fiona Apple-especially in its willingness to surprise and take fun and interesting musical turns.  She’s weird and cool” –Eli Brueggemann\, Musical Director for Saturday Night Live\n\n“Not only is her band several levels above your average blues combo and her own musical\, vocal attributes enthralling; but her songwriting and lyrical abilities deliver humor\, complexity and an emotional power that takes her art way beyond genre boundaries.” — American Blues Scene\n \n“….. serves up a radiant platter of her patented NOLA-steeped brand of slidin’ blues rock — smokey\, syrupy and ever-genuine” –Aaron Davis\, The Sacramento Bee \n\n “Comparisons are odious\, but …..Katie Knipp is a true original. The closest I can come to a description is a cross between Nina Simone and Mose Allison. Remarkable.” — Mick Martin\, KZAP\n\n“Her version of blues is raw and gritty\, and she’s comfortable with a myriad of musical influences in her underlying soundtrack.” -Robert Leggett\, No Depression Magazine \n\n“Versatility.  That’s the word to properly define Katie Knipp’s work.  She is a gifted musician\, able to not only play slide guitar\, piano\, and harmonica but mainly able to make her singing prevail over the textures of a song.”  -Marcel Innocentini\, Blues Rock Review \n\n“I know good music when I hear it.  Katie Knipp grabbed my attention with her new album\, “Me.” She captured it with the first note on the first song\, “Mud.” The album unfolds like a theatrical performance. She’s a storyteller\, an explorer\, a rocker. By the fifth song\, I’ve decided\, “Yep\, she’s got me. Everything here is good. I’ll just put my interpreter’s ears away now and just enjoy it.” The powerful yet rather humorous title track\, “Go\,” would fit seamlessly on “Magical Mystery Tour.” I feel like I hear Neil’s influence on “Dirty Cables.” I dig the bluesy “Lava Pot.” “The Devil’s Armchair” simply grows and builds. Bravo\, Katie Knipp!” –Tim Parsons\, Tahoe Onstage
