HR is best known as the legendary frontman of the groundbreaking fusion band Bad Brains. Alongside his brother Earl Hudson, guitarist Gary “Dr. Know” Miller, and bassist Darryl Jenifer, HR helped form the band in Washington, D.C. in 1979. Originally performing together as the jazz fusion group Mind Power, the band soon evolved into Bad Brains, combining blistering punk rock with reggae, funk, and spiritual consciousness. With unprecedented speed, precision, and musical ability, Bad Brains took the Washington, D.C. music scene by storm and quickly became one of the most influential bands in American punk
history. Their fearless energy and genre-defying sound helped shape the direction of hardcore punk while breaking racial barriers in a predominantly white scene. Beyond the music, HR and Bad Brains introduced the philosophy of Positive Mental Attitude (PMA) — a message of spiritual awareness, unity, and self-empowerment that continues to inspire generations of fans around the world.
Today, HR carries that legacy forward with HR & The Human Rights Movement, delivering powerful reggae performances rooted in the same message of positivity, consciousness, and unity that defined his career from the very beginning.

Brett Dennen - Art Is Life (An Evening With)
Friday, June 12th 2026
This show is seated.
Doors @ 7PM - Show Starts @ 8PM
Across his career, Brett Dennen has established himself as the kind of singer-songwriter who finds inspiration by digging into the nooks and crannies of the human condition—exploring pain, joy, sadness, and all points in between. If It Takes Forever (Mick Music), the California native’s eighth solo album and first full-length since 2021’s See the World, is no exception. The warm, immersive collection boasts deeply felt sentiments, underpinned by rich acoustic guitars and Dennen’s earnest vocals, in the vein of dusky Americana (“Golden State of Mind”), harmonica-driven blues (the Tom Petty-esque “Careful What You Wish For”), rootsy indie (“Don’t Go Talking”), and meditative folk-rock (highlight “Time To Wake Up”).
If It Takes Forever emerged out of a tough 2023 for Dennen, as he was dealing with the death of his dad. “He was such a strong figure in my life that I depended on so much as both a dad and a best friend,” he said. “And I knew immediately in order for me to deal with his death, the best thing I could do was to make an album about it.”
Understandably, Dennen took his time coming up with song ideas for If It Takes Forever, and spent the bulk of a year simply thinking about “what kind of album I was going to make and what kinds of songs were going to be on the album,” he says. “I jotted down ideas on paper, made little voice memos with ideas of songs, melodies and choruses, or sometimes even just talked into a voice recorder.”
With these ideas as a foundation, Dennen was well-prepared by the time he hunkered down in late 2023 to formalize his rough ideas into songs. “Making them a reality all happened very fast,” he says. “These songs were in my head and came out when I had the guitar in my hand. I would record one, put it away and then come back a few days or a few weeks later and listen to it: ‘Okay, I think that's done. That's good enough. Move on, move on, move on.’”
Dennen naturally wrote some songs directly about his dad. But he also wanted If It Takes Forever to tackle his new reality going forward. “It was evaluating life—like, what did this person mean to me?” he says. “What did they inspire in me? What do I think life is about now? Who's the person I really want to be?” But he also found himself turning to broader philosophical questions. “I was also thinking about the state of life: What is life? What does it mean? What's it all about?”
This lent itself to lyrics full of vibrant imagery with multiple layers of meaning. Among his favorite songs is the gentle, folksy “In the Garden,” which was indirectly inspired by his parents and the impressive vegetable garden they tended. “I don't necessarily think it's a song about my dad—or a song about him speaking to my mom, per se—but I think it's a song about love and putting your intention into something,” Dennen explains. “Metaphorically, it’s about taking care of something and creating something beautiful, but it’s also a literal place for beautiful things to grow, and a calm place to find solace in.”
Another favorite is “Wood Canoe,” a narrative-driven story of humble man who has a knack for building a canoe out of wood, with lyrics speaking to the idea of metaphorically taking somebody away to a better place, he explains. “It feels like a Cat Stevens song and has a little bit of Latin rhythm to it.” Dennen also loves “Another Day in Babylon” because of its rumbling groove—and the fact it’s very literal, as he based the lyrics on things that happened in his own life.
The easygoing opening track, “Chipping Away,” meanwhile, touches on resilience and the importance of persevering even when things might not be falling into place the way you’d like. “There's so many things I want to do and so many things I haven't done—and I'm the one holding myself back from doing those things,” he explains. “But that's just life, I guess—and here's an opportunity to celebrate that.”
Dennen recorded If It Takes Forever quickly, “in a whirlwind five days” in Los Angeles with the musicians in his live band and another long-time collaborator serving as producer, Jon Solo. This full-band configuration gave the album a distinct feeling of immediacy but also lends itself to depth-filled arrangements. Organ courses through the standout “Dharma Baby” while plaintive piano adds sharp melancholy to the meditative “Star Surfer.”
“We haven't recorded an album together before now,” he notes. “But it was easy to trust everyone and get excited about what we were creating together. We felt like a team; I've never had that feeling before. That’s why I think it was easy to get so much done in a short amount of time.”
In general, Dennen prefers recording live with a band anyway. But the bond he had formed with his bandmates across years of traveling around together on the road made the If It Takes Forever experience especially seamless—namely because everyone contributed parts and ideas in the studio during the process. “I was really impressed with everybody's ability to help me get to a place where I was feeling good about the direction it was going,’ he says. “It wasn't me or the producer saying, ‘I want you to do this. I was hoping you would do this.’ It wasn't like ‘This is Brett’s album’—it was like, let's just make this music the best that the four of us can make it.”
Since debuting in 2004 with a self-titled album, Dennen has amassed a loyal fanbase thanks to a steady touring schedule, including alongside artists like John Mayer, Jason Mraz and G Love and Special Sauce, as well as multiple song placements in the TV show Parenthood. Another tune, "Comeback Kid (That's My Dog)," became the theme song for the TV adaptation About A Boy. Along the way, Dennen has also had multiple top 10 hits on the AAA radio charts, with the keening title track of See the World, an encouraging song about growing up and forging your own path in life, landing at No. 4 in 2021.
With If It Takes Forever, Dennen plans to hit the road once again, but he possesses additional perspective on—and gratitude for—the solace provided by art and music. “To really boil it down, this is life,” he says. “Life is full of things that get complicated and make you busy, and are really hard to deal with. But if you write songs about it, and put it into art, then it makes it a lot more relevant and meaningful and worthy of celebration.”

Limited Early Bird Tickets - $20
GA Presale - $30
Hanging around Ehren River Wright’s neck you’ll find a charm with four Latin words: Momento mori, momento vivere.
“It means, ‘Remember that you must die, remember that you must live,’” says Ehren, the composer, multi-instrumentalist, and producer better known as SoDown. “That’s what this new album is all about.”
Recorded at Ehren’s own studio in Denver, Worlds Beyond marks the highly anticipated full-length debut from SoDown, who more than delivers on the promise of his early work with this bold, adventurous collection. Blurring the lines between the organic and the electronic, the music is both exhilarating and meditative all at once, equally at home on headphones as it is blasting out of a festival PA. The writing is deceptively sophisticated, drawing on stoicism and Eastern philosophy in a search for some greater meaning, and Ehren’s production is similarly ambitious, drawing on dubstep, future bass, reggae, and hip-hop with the same intoxicating mix of live instrumentation and electronic elements that’s made SoDown a live favorite on stages from Red Rocks and The Gorge to Coachella and Electric Forest. The result is a rich and cinematic sonic hybrid, one that manages to balance the visceral and the intellectual in perfect harmony as it grapples with life and death, darkness and light, struggle and transcendence.
“To be SoDown is to seize every opportunity and try new things,” says Ehren. “It’s about living the most epic life possible.”
Momento mori, momento vivere indeed.

Doors @ 6PM - Show Starts @ 7PM
Presale - $30 Door - $40
The Crane Wives -
Born of the 2010’s folk boom and now comfortably stationed in their rock and roll era, The Crane Wives epitomize the evolving landscape of indie folk. Their high-energy performances have been described as “charged with emotion and technical skill” (Blurred Culture LA), while their harmony-dense melodies support deeply resonant lyrics, exploring the vulnerable and the ugly sides of the human condition. The band has amassed over 1.3 million monthly listeners on Spotify, racking up over 150 million streams on their most popular songs and accumulating listenership from far-flung corners of the US to the UK, Australia, Germany, Brazil, Poland, Mexico, and the Philippines.
Featured by Michigan Radio and NPR’s “All Songs Considered, ”the band recently released their sixth full-length studio record, Beyond Beyond Beyond, to high praise, with Glasse Factory calling the album “a testament to the band’s ability to turn personal struggles into universally relatable anthems." Niner Times describes the new release as “angsty, haunting and gritty, ”praising its departure from the more traditional folk sound of the Crane Wives’ previous records. Since its release in Sept 2024, Beyond Beyond Beyond has accrued over 24 million streams on Spotify.
The pulse of the Crane Wives is delivered by Ben Zito (bass) and Dan Rickabus (drums), creating a driving, dynamic backdrop while co-leads Emilee Petersmark and Kate Pillsbury establish expansive and gritty conversations between their electric guitars. A web of three-part harmony helps to soften the blow of their emotional candor, like a 21st century Cerberus, the hound of Hades reimagined as an emotional support animal.
The Crane Wives have 6 full-length albums under their belts and have performed over 600 shows across the US, sharing stages with acts such as The Avett Brothers, Lake Street Dive, Rusted Root, The Dead South, Joseph, and many more.
Yasmin Williams -

Her latest album Acadia, released on Nonesuch Records, showcases her evolution from solo performer to collaborative artist, featuring partnerships with notable musicians like Aoife O'Donovan and Immanuel Wilkins.

Following her acclaimed 2021 album Urban Driftwood, Acadia represents a significant artistic expansion, featuring three distinct sections that move from traditional folk influences to atmospheric soundscapes and experimental arrangements. Williams' approach emphasizes sustained tones and intricate articulation, creating music that balances technical precision with ethereal, floating melodies.

Wednesday, June 17th 2026
Outside in the Volcanic Courtyard
Genre - Indie Folk
Doors @ 6PM - Show Starts @ 7PM
Presale - $40 Door - $50
John Craigie -
For over a decade, John Craigie has made music that brings people in, not with spectacle but with sincerity and songs that feel like conversations.
His new album I Swam Here, out February 6, 2026 on Zabriskie Point Records, was written and produced by Craigie and recorded between New Orleans and Astoria. Seven tracks were cut at Deslonde St Studios with musicians handpicked by Sam Doores of The Deslondes, including Howe Pearson, Max Bien Khan, Jonny Campos, and a guest appearance from Desiree Cannon. Longtime collaborator Anna Moss appears across much of the record. The remaining tracks were finished at the Rope Room in Astoria, carrying over the same spirit and palette. The cover art, painted by Brittany Schall, nods to the design of mid century samba and jazz records.
The album’s singles trace the path of its making. “Fire Season,” engineered by Bart Budwig, was one of the first songs written and features Cooper Trail, Nevada Sowle, Luke Ydstie, and Jamie Greenan. “Dry Land” was reworked in Astoria after early New Orleans sessions didn’t feel right. “Edna Strange,” inspired by Marty Robbins, is the only track where Craigie plays steel string acoustic, with Max Bien Khan on nylon string leads and a trio vocal arrangement in place of Moss’s harmonies.
Following 2024’s Pagan Church with TK & The Holy Know-Nothings, which spent six weeks at #1 on the Americana Albums chart, I Swam Here feels both expansive and intimate, shaped by the musical history of the Gulf Coast and the stillness of the Pacific Northwest.
Craigie remains a tireless live performer, touring throughout the U.S., Europe, and Australia, appearing at festivals like Newport Folk, Pickathon, Edmonton Folk Festival, and High Sierra, and sharing the stage with artists such as Langhorne Slim, Sierra Hull, Gregory Alan Isakov, Brett Dennen, and Jack Johnson. His annual #KeepItWarm Tour donates $1 from every ticket sold to regional nonprofits, and his John Craigie On The River trips on the Tuolumne and Rogue rivers have become cherished gatherings for fans.
I Swam Here is a grounded, collaborative step forward, blending New Orleans grit with Pacific Northwest quiet, and showing a songwriter still widening the world of his music.
Blind Pilot -
The first Blind Pilot album in eight years,In the Shadow of the Holy Mountainemerged from a period ofartistic crisis and the radical transformation of their creative ecosystem. “I went through a few yearswhere I wasn’t able to write—I tried therapy, I read books on writer’s block, I went on writing trips,but nothing was helping,” saysIsrael Nebeker, frontman for the Oregon-bred band. After steppingback and reimagining his songwriting approach, Nebeker challenged himself to write an entire albumin a month, then brought those songs to his bandmates with a newfound sense of receptivity. “I toldmyself that whatever songs came through in that month would be for the love of the band andmusic we make together,” says Nebeker. “Instead of being controlling in the studio, I wanted to letthe songs live and breathe with the band as an entity. By the time we finished, it was the most joywe’d ever had in making an album together.”
Produced byJosh Kaufman(The Hold Steady, David Wax Museum),In the Shadow of the HolyMountainbrings a potent new energy to the elegantly composed folk/indie-rock of past LPs like2016’sAnd Then Like Lions. In a profound step forward for the band—whose lineup also includesdrummer/co-founderRyan Dobrowski, bassist Luke Ydstie, and multi-instrumentalist KatiClaborn—Blind Pilot’s fourth full-length unfoldswith an exquisite fluidity, fully harnessing theundeniable chemistry. “In the past we’ve always been very serious and intentional about the process,but Josh often encouraged us to throw away our preconceived notions of what the songs weresupposed to be,” saysNebeker. “So much of the album came from all of us playing live together,listening to each other and trusting our instincts, and really getting to the core of the song,”Dobrowski adds.The result: the most revelatory expression yet of Blind Pilot’s palpable reverencefor music as a connective force.
While Blind Pilot intends to tour principally as a quartet in support of the record, the album includescontributions from longtime trumpeter/keyboardist Dave Jorgensen and vibraphonist Ian Krist. Inbringing the album to life, the band worked with a rich palette of instrumentation, handling eachtrack with equal parts extraordinary care and unbridled spontaneity.For bothDobrowski andNebeker—who formed an early iteration of the band as college students in the mid-aughts—thosemoments of ineffably closeness serve as the lifeblood of Blind Pilot.“For me making this album feltlike celebrating being together and still feeling that deep connection that’s been a throughline for ourentire adult lives,” Dobrowski says. “One of my very favorite things about music is the way it notonly connects us as bandmates, but allows us to connect to an audience—and then within thataudience, people end up connecting with each other. It’s this powerful thing that’s unlike anythingelse, and in a way it’s kind of like magic.”

Presale - $25 Door - $35
Wax and Hoppa had crossed paths musically before, but everything changed when Hoppa joined as Wax's tour DJ in 2024. On the road together, the two quickly discovered a deep creative chemistry and a shared obsession with making music as often as possible.
Hoppa never travels without his portable studio, and that habit turned the tour into a rolling recording session. Songs took shape in hotel rooms, green rooms, and the back of moving vans on long stretches across the US and Canada. "People call it 'work ethic,'" says Wax, "but when your work is fueled by fun and passion, it is very easy to clock in."
The result is Highway Hotel — a road-born album that finds the perfect middle ground between Hoppa's raw hip hop instincts and Wax's melodic range and eclectic lyricism. Hoppa credits the casual environments for keeping things honest: "You are way less likely to overthink… you just do what feels right in the moment and roll with it."
With a stacked guest list featuring Little Stranger, G Love, K.A.A.N., Jarren Benton, Watsky, Jarv, Demrick, ¡Mayday!, Krysta Youngs, Damn Skippy, Kail Problems, Marley B, 1Ton, SUMPP, and Wax's twin brother Herbal T, this is an album you will gladly bump over and over again.
Wax is a rapper/singer/songwriter who has been a niche underground favorite for two decades. He was signed to Def Jam Records, has a Number One Billboard hit song in several countries in Europe, and has a dozen or so albums under his belt. For more info, please visit waxdotcom.com.
