The Disco Biscuits are a band of transformation and invention. Now 3 decades after their first launch, the Philadelphia-based group remains the pioneers of “Trance-Fusion” - bridging the gap between electronic dance music and jam rock - while consistently looking for new sonic boundaries to break and avenues to tell stories within.
With two rock operas (1998’s Hot Air Balloon / 2000’s Chemical Warfare Brigade) and a space opera (2024’s Revolution In Motion) amongst the 9 full-length studio albums under their belt, The Biscuits are musical force of nature, having played thousands of shows and not showing signs of slowing down any time soon with even more new music on the horizon.
With a constant touring schedule and ever-transforming live shows, The Disco Biscuits’ soul belongs as much to marathon dance parties as it does to live improvisational journeys. They employ emerging technologies to help them create music that is 100% human although, perhaps, not entirely of this planet.

Seth Sikes, one of New York’s standout cabaret performers, brings his signature charm and mischief to songs made famous by broadway female icons like Judy Garland, Bernadette Peters, Liza Minnelli, Barbra Streisand, and Patti LuPone. Big voices, bigger feelings, and just the right amount of trouble—these diva anthems and torchy tales of love and loss get a fresh spin that’s equal parts reverent and a little bit naughty. The New York Times calls him “a hit with audiences and critics alike.”
Seth Sikes is one of New York’s most popular young nightclub performers. Hailed as “the best male singer of his generation” by Theatre Scene, Sikes has been selling out venues since his 2014 debut Seth Sikes Sings Judy Garland, which won Broadway World’s Best Tribute Show Award. Reviewers were equally enthusiastic towards his follow-up show Seth Sikes Sings Liza Minnelli. The New York Post said, “It was a heartfelt concert. Sikes has a heap of fans and his audiences are always tightly packed and brimming with enthusiasm fo…

Born in the new millennium, Luke Tyler Shelton makes soul-soothing rock-and-roll with all the ineffable charm of a faraway time. With a profound gift for dreaming up heavenly melodies and fantastically loose grooves, the Los Angeles native found his sound as part of a close-knit scene of young musicians and artists—a DIY-minded community whose spirit and sensibilities recall the near-mythic creative hotbed of early-’70s Laurel Canyon. Produced by Shooter Jennings (Brandi Carlile, Tanya Tucker) and Jonathan Wilson (Father John Misty, Angel Olsen), Luke’s debut body of work merges country-rock, folk-pop, and Southern soul into songs that immediately transport the audience into a state of enchanted ease.

Son Little’s live show brings his music into a different kind of clarity- raw, expressive, and always evolving. Whether solo or with a full band, he moves fluidly between deep grooves, stripped-down intimacy, and moments that feel completely improvised yet emotionally precise. It’s a performance style shaped by instinct and connection, grounded in the richness of his voice and the depth of his songwriting.
Over the past decade, he’s cultivated a sound that draws from soul, blues, folk, hip-hop, and R&B - without ever settling fully into any one space. That spirit carries into the room when he performs, offering something that feels both familiar and entirely his own. Audiences are pulled into songs built on texture and vulnerability, delivered with equal parts grit and grace. It’s not just a setlist - it’s an experience.
Following a run through the UK and Europe supporting Larkin Poe, Son Little is back with a new wave of music and a fresh stretch of tour dates for winter and spring. His new album CITYFOLK…

Los Angeles-based instrumental supergroup Circles Around The Sun is a contemporary instrumental rock band, initially formed in 2015, when Justin Kreutzmann, son of Grateful Dead drummer Bill, invited founder Neal Casal to compose the intermission music for the Dead’s “Fare Thee Well” concerts.
As those shows celebrated the band’s 50th anniversary, Circles Around The Sun’s earliest compositions Interludes For The Dead were designed to reflect the Dead’s overall spacey, improvised, and groove-laden feel.
The response was so positive that they continued on with a follow-up project, Let It Wander, in 2018. This record was less influenced by the Dead and more free-form, delivering on the roots influence of jazz-funk, soul, and fusion.
The band underwent a fundamental transition in 2019. After completing the Meets Joe Russo EP and a third album, their guitarist Neal Casal died on August 26, 2019. He left his bandmates a note asking for them to continue in his absence– to continue recording, touring, and playing…

Formed in 2018 as the "Richiman Trio" they first entered the International Blues Challenge (IBC) in 2019 as a representative of the Korea Blues Society. While performing in Memphis, Richiman saw and felt real American Blues and knew this was his calling.
"We are a blues band from South Korea that wants to play the American style of blues. We grew up in Korea but fell in love with American blues."
Three years later the Richiman Trio replaced their bassist and modernized their sound to be more groove oriented for dancing. The new line-up was named Richiman and Groove Nice.
They returned to the International Blues Challenge in Memphis in 2022, where they became a top 5 finalist out of hundreds of performers from around the world. It is the first time any Korean blues band has reached the finals in the history of the blues challenge. The IBC had spoken, and yes, they are real bluesmen.

ELENA MOON PARK CELEBRATES THE MAGIC OF EVERYDAY LIFE ON NOTHING IS ORDINARY - A GLOBALLY INSPIRED ALL AGES ALBUM OUT MAY 29, 2026
Musician and cultural producer Elena Moon Park returns with Nothing Is Ordinary, a luminous new collection of songs that invites listeners of all ages to rediscover the wonder woven into everyday life.
Built around the idea that the world surrounding us is both ordinary and extraordinary at once, the album encourages a deeper kind of listening, one that embraces birdsong in the morning, the quiet glow of the moon in daylight, and the countless small stories unfolding around us at any given moment.
“When I sit with this idea, I find myself noticing more of both the grand and the mundane,” says Park. “I’m reminded that so much of my joy comes from listening closely, from paying attention to the world and the people around me.

Agatha Christie's The Murder of Roger Ackroyd
Closing our 2025/2026 season- a masterfully twisted tale of deception and suspense.
A murder. A mansion. A mysterious cast of suspects. And only one man can uncover the truth: Hercule Poirot. Agatha Christie’s The Murder of Roger Ackroyd is more than just a mystery—it’s the gold standard of the genre, widely hailed as “the greatest whodunnit ever written.” In this new adaptation by Mark Shanahan, Dame Agatha’s twistiest tale is brought to the stage with all its cunning, charm, and chilling suspense. Summon your “little gray cells” and prepare to be outwitted.

Gathering inspiration from '60s and '70s soul greats across the Atlantic to modern R&B and jazz, MT Jones evokes a sound that is both contemporary and timeless. His deeply soulful vocals transport you straight back to a smoke-filled speakeasy that somehow still feels fresh and innovative.
Between stints working on music regularly in Liverpool & London, Jones has travelled the world as a musician & penned songs for other artists, making a name for himself as a gifted and prolific songwriter. But lockdown gave him the time and space to put his talent under his own name. His debut single, "I Won't Ever Say Goodbye," was a soulful, heart-on-sleeve ballad that marked the start of big things and he has followed it with a series of singles that have grabbed widespread attention and half a million monthly listeners on Spotify, especially after BBC introducing multiple spins on 1xtra, where MT was a ‘Step up’ artist.
Now he releases "Joy," his debut album, in March of 2026, using it as a launchpad for an extended ti…

On a magical night at Nectar’s in Burlington, Vermont in December of 2018, three musical masters—Russ Lawton, Scott Metzger and Ray Paczkowski—came together with alchemical synthesis, and created a fresh, so-tight-it's-free sound, permeated with technical prowess and a deep-pocket punch. The packed house fortunate enough to be in attendance that night witnessed the birth of something very special. The following spring, the trio took the name LaMP by combining the first letters of each members’ surname, and reconvened back in Vermont at Sugarhouse Soundworks for an intense recording session with sound engineer Roger Stauss laying down tracks that would become their eponymous debut EP.
Metzger, described by The Village Voice as “…an ace guitarist of a thousand styles,” and a full-time member of the beloved Joe Russo’s Almost Dead, tested the decades-strong synergy between Lawton and Paczkowski forged from their time playing with Trey Anastasio Band and their duo project Soule Monde. It resulted in seven tracks…

It took a world-shaking breakup for Amelia Day to find her true sound — and herself. She embraces the full range of her influences with "EGO TRIP," a genre-bending EP stacked high with alt-rock guitars, pop hooks, swooning keyboards, and the sharp songwriting of a lifelong storyteller. Inspired by the sudden collapse of a college romance, "EGO TRIP" finds room for anger, liberation, and healing, with Amelia nodding not only to the folk music she discovered as a child in the Pacific Northwest, but also the electrifying empowerment of her favorite 1990s frontwomen. The result is a collection of melody-driven songs that breathe new life into classic sounds, largely written in her adopted hometown of Nashville and recorded at Bear Creek Studio in her home state of Washington. With "EGO TRIP," Amelia Day creates her own geography.
"It’s at once precisely curated, each note and lyric accounted for, and eagerly committed to the maximalist extremes of whatever genre’s playground she’s found herself in." - Washington…

Closing our 2025/2026 season- a masterfully twisted tale of deception and suspense.
A murder. A mansion. A mysterious cast of suspects. And only one man can uncover the truth: Hercule Poirot. Agatha Christie’s The Murder of Roger Ackroyd is more than just a mystery—it’s the gold standard of the genre, widely hailed as “the greatest whodunnit ever written.” In this new adaptation by Mark Shanahan, Dame Agatha’s twistiest tale is brought to the stage with all its cunning, charm, and chilling suspense. Summon your “little gray cells” and prepare to be outwitted.

Residual Groove is a five-piece indie-jam band from Southern Connecticut that has quickly carved out a rising presence on the modern jam landscape through fearless creativity and locked-in musical chemistry. Blending psychedelic funk rock and thoughtful indie-reminiscent songwriting, the band thrives at the intersection of structure and spontaneity, where carefully crafted songs open into expansive, playful jams and seamless, improv-driven segues. Formed just four years ago, Residual Groove is anchored by brothers Previn Edwards (guitar, vocals) and Kiran Edwards (keyboards, vocals), whose collaborative chemistry shapes the band’s melodic and harmonic identity, and is rounded out by Ryan Berry (bass, backing vocals), Adam Finkelstein (drums, backing vocals), and Garrett Halstead (percussion), who together lay down a rhythm section that is both precise and exploratory, equally capable of deep, entrancing grooves and sudden lift-offs.
While the live show experience is a central pillar of the band’s identity, R…

Album Review: Wild Child - End Of The World — Caroline Birmingham (THE WAVE) : From start to finish, the album is dramatic and captivating, radiates warmth like the Texas sun and overflows with authenticity, intimacy, and soul.
"'End Of The World' is...one of the band’s finest moments." — John Moore (Glide Magazine)
The frenetic title track off of Wild Child’s fifth LP has some pretty dark origins. “End Of the World” was written towards the end of the massive 2021 ice storm that paralyzed Texas ultimately killing hundreds as a result of hypothermia and carbon monoxide poisoning. But Wild Child were able to channel that uncertainty and helplessness into an addictively catchy anthem for the current world we are living in, in the process creating one of the best songs the band has ever recorded.
Wild Child is the Austin-born songwriting partnership of Kelsey Wilson and Alexander Beggins, a duo whose chemistry has powered more than a decade of acclaimed indie-folk releases and spirited live shows. What began as…

With curly tufts peeking out from his omnipresent knit cap, Andy Frasco is a band-fronting, songwriting party animal who turns into a swirling rock ‘n’ roll Tasmanian Devil onstage leading his U.N. not unlike Bruce Springsteen and the E-Street Band. From switching instruments mid-song to Frasco stage-diving into the crowd or kibitzing with them, an Andy Frasco & The U.N. show is a celebration of inclusivity and tolerance where “You do You” and “let us do us.”
The band has grown from playing bars to touring more than 250 days a year all over the country, with Frasco describing that 15-year journey on Growing Pains, the group’s landmark 10th studio album and first full-length e…

In honor of Miles Davis’ 100th birthday, we welcome GET UP WITH IT, the longstanding project of The War On Drugs drummer and Wilton native Charlie Hall. With its roots going back to San Francisco in the late ‘90s, GET UP WITH IT came together as a means to explore the groundbreaking and iconic 1969-1975 era of Miles Davis’ electric music.
Now in its third decade, the adventurous ensemble will focus on three of Miles’ most revered and influential albums for this show - 1969’s visionary and transcendental In a Silent Way, the 1970 magnum opus Bitches Brew, and 1971’s Jack Johnson.
Dense, thorny and uncompromising, the Miles' "electric period" of 1969-75 was initially controversial with his longtime fans, who felt the trumpeter was shrugging off the well-worn trappings of Birth of the Cool and his classic quintets in favor of a musical stew that was equal parts James Brown and Sly Stone, Stockhausen and Jimi Hendrix. Listening to these albums more than 50 years later though, it's hard not to be struck by how a…
