SUMMARY:Descendents
DESCRIPTION:Since first emerging from (and defining) the Southern California pop-punk scene in 1978\, the legendary Descendents have released classic after classic\, from their landmark 1982 LP Milo Goes to College to 2016’s Hypercaffium Spazzinate. Now\, after issuing a flurry of singles to get fans through the past few years\, the band — Milo Aukerman (vocals)\, Bill Stevenson (drums)\, Stephen Egerton (guitar)\, and Karl Alvarez (bass) — will be touring in support of a new album. With a very cool twist.\nWhat started with Milo Goes to College now comes full circle on the blistering 9th & Walnut (Epitaph)\, a “lost album” quietly recorded in 2002 by the MGTC lineup of Stevenson\, Aukerman\, Tony Lombardo on bass\, and Frank Navetta (d. 2008) on guitar. Audiences should be geared up for shows featuring songs spanning Descendents’ incredible career\, from “Suburban Home” and “Silly Girl” to “I’m the One” and “Without Love\,” and including 9th & Walnut tracks like first single “Baby Doncha Know” and its incendiary follow-up\, “Nightage.”

SUMMARY:Aidan Canfield
DESCRIPTION:Aidan Canfield’s artistry infuses a unique combination of rock and country influences from the sounds that he grew up on – a little bit of Seger and Springsteen\, a little bit of Kenny Chesney meets Zach Bryan. His heartfelt lyrics and melodies have struck a chord of relatability he’s witnessed on the road on support dates with artists such as Riley Green.\nWhen the pandemic hit in 2020\, Aidan used the time to discover his passion for playing the guitar\, and he started singing and writing songs. In two short years\, he started growing a following on social media platforms and released his first single\, “The Idea Of Me\,” in April of 2022. Since then\, Aidan has released six additional singles\, an album and his music has nearly 3 million streams. Aidan’s heartfelt lyrics and melodies are what make his music relatable to his fans.\nFeatured in country music YouTuber and critic Grady Smith’s “Best Music Under the Radar of 2023\,” Canfield’s growing popularity has also led to his first CMAFest performance on the Hard Rock Stage and a feature on the Tidal Wave Festival in Atlantic City.\nDavid Pugh is a singer-songwriter based in College Station\, Texas. He started making music at 20 with the release of his first single\, With You Gone. After putting out two EPs\, he took a step back from performing and releasing music to focus on writing and finding his sound.\nNow\, after a few quiet years\, he’s gearing up to release his debut full-length album on June 6th. So far\, he’s shared three singles from the project—Alone\, Ready\, and Down the Line—which reflect a more focused and refined take on his alternative folk style.\nThe new music leans into honest songwriting with a simple\, polished sound—something that feels true to where he is now\, both personally and musically.

SUMMARY:Rory Block
DESCRIPTION:“Probably the most persistent and enthusiastic requests from my fans for anything outside of the blues genre has been the repeated calls to record a Bob Dylan tribute. As with all my recordings\, the songs that move me the most deeply\, touching heart and soul\, are the ones I choose to record.” Rory Block\nTaking a break from her award-winning Power Women of The Blues series\, which has shone a light on women songwriters and performers over her three most recent albums\, Rory throws her skills as a finger-picker and traditional blues arranger behind one of the greatly respected leading artists and songwriter of all-time: Bob Dylan. Performing all instruments herself\, Rory combines acoustic and slide guitars\, as well as drums and acoustic bass\, to create a one-of-a kind arrangement of Dylan’s songbook.\nRory Block is a Gold-album selling and 7-time Blues Music Award winner\, widely regarded as the top female performer of traditional country-blues. Rory’s commitment as a blues preservationist with an ear for finding the soul of every song she performs has rewarded her with accolades from the blues and roots music community
