JUST ANNOUNCED Caleb Lee Hutchinson - Long Line of Losers Tour Fri. Nov. 13th.
For as long as Caleb Lee Hutchinson has been making music, he has rooted his creative process in the brutal honesty and rich storytelling tradition of country music’s roots. Hutchinson’s voice and wit inspired important collaborations on his 2019 self-titled debut EP, produced by Grammy winner Kristian Bush, and 2021 follow-up, “Slot Machine Syndrome,” produced by Grammy-nominated Americana stalwart, Brent Cobb. In 2022, Caleb self-produced the darkly themed EP, “Songs I’ll Never Sing Again,” and wrote and starred in the accompanying short film. With his new project, “Southern Galactic,”—produced by multi-genre artist and creator Titanic Sinclair—Hutchinson explores new territory while maintaining his reverence for the honesty and storytelling that seeded his love for country music as a Georgia boy listening to Mississippi John Hurt and Waylon Jennings cassettes with his dad.

Eliot Bronson Fri. Sept. 25th!

https://www.broadwayworld.com/bwwmusic/article/Eliot-Bronson-to-Release-ARRIVE-New-Album-Produced-by-Oliver-Wood-20260828

The seventh studio album features musicians John Mailander, Gabe Dixon, and Mark Raudabaugh.

Award-winning Atlanta-based independent singer-songwriter Eliot Bronson will release his seventh studio album, Arrive, on November 6, 2026, via his New Pain Records label. Produced by Oliver Wood at the Wood Brothers' studio in Nashville, Arrive showcases Bronson's cinematic storytelling, memorable melodies, and uncanny ability to find depth and meaning in everyday life.

Oliver elaborates, 'I was very impressed with the depth of Eliot's songwriting. He sent me about 15 songs, and they were all great, and it was hard to choose favorites for the record. Then he kept sending more songs that were even better! What a luxury as a producer to have an artist so prepared and prolific… and it was a joy in the studio, where Eliot performed with confidence and humility and took the process very seriously, without taking himself too seriously. We laughed a lot. It was very inspiring for me to be involved.'

SHOW ANNOUNCEMENT - Welcome back Justin Wells with Abe Partridge on Sun. Nov. 1st.

With Justin Wells’ latest album, Cynthiana, the Kentucky singer-songwriter once again stokes the fiery depths of his pure intent, the core elements of the record revolving around things that matter most in life — steadfast family, genuine friends, and creative fulfillment.

“This album’s just coming from the place where my heart is right now,” Wells says. “It feels gentler, especially when you put it in the context of the work that I did 10 or 15 years ago.”

Captured by Grammy-nominated producer Duane Lundy at his legendary studio in Lexington, Kentucky, Cynthiana came about as an ode to Wells’ wife, Andrea, with whom he first crossed paths with in their high school gymnasium when they were teenagers. That was exactly 25 years ago. “Cynthiana is the small central Kentucky town where we met,” the 42-year- old Wells says. “This album is inspired by Andrea — her femininity and her grace and her power,” Wells says. “There’s little pieces of her in all of these songs.”

It doesn’t matter to Wells the portals by which he’s able to reach the listener. What counts is this internal mission to connect with whoever’s in the room — folks in search of compassion and something real in a sometimes lonely and confusing world.

“I don’t make country music. I don’t make Americana music. It’s blue-collar music,” Wells told Rolling Stone. “It’s for people who struggle day-to-day in this world. Ultimately, it’s about the human condition — distilling your story down to the common thread.”

SHOW ANNOUNCEMENT - Green Knuckle Material with 6 Story Pyramid and Proxima System Sat. Nov. 28th 7:30pm.
Formed in 2016, the New Jersey band, Green Knuckle Material (GKM) embarked on a musical journey that initially started as a 5-piece rap-rock force. Through a transformative process filled with experimentation, Green Knuckle Material discovered their true sound: an irresistible fusion of pop-punk elements that captivates audiences with infectious melodies, powerful hooks, and relatable lyrics.

Green Knuckle Material's musical transition from rap-rock to pop-punk was a labor of love. Through countless hours of songwriting and soul-searching, the band embraced the challenge of finding a sound that truly resonated with their artistic vision. Their dedication and perseverance led to a musical metamorphosis, resulting in a captivating sound that combines the raw power of pop-punk with catchy hooks and an unwavering commitment to authenticity. A prime example of this metamorphosis was well-encapsulated in one of their most recent releases, “Julia”, which garnered over 100k Spotify streams in only its first few months. Listeners can clearly hear the inspiration drawn from bands like All Time Low, Fall Out Boy, and Panic! at the Disco.

Proxima System
Debuting in the summer of 2025, Proxima System is a Four Piece Alternative Rock Band from Hickory North Carolina. Their sound is a blend of alternative rock ranging from the likes of Pearl Jam, Foo Fighters, to The Beatles and Sonic Youth. The groups Members consist of Logan Witherspoon (vocals and Rhythm Guitar), Salvatore Triola (vocals and Drums), Kyle Hager (Lead Guitar), and Cole Downey(Bass). The group is always ready to play and is excited to share their original music with the world.
