Last week, MOTHICA arrived in Phoenix, Arizona, for opening night of the Chin Up, Beautiful Tour as a supporting act for headliner, JUTES. By the time she walked offstage, she had done far more than warm up the room—she had turned a 30-minute set into an emotional journey of finding something worth staying for.

On October 4th, 2005, Flyleaf released their self-titled debut album, and in the process, they took the rock scene by storm. The album spent over 33 weeks on the Billboard charts & became the ninth best-selling Christian album of the 2000s. Just over twenty years later, the band announced a tour celebrating the anniversary of their debut album, with numerous openers spanning across the United States.

On the second stop of their first headlining tour, Edgehill sold out local Toronto venue The Garrison on June 30, 2026.

Thursday nights in Boston are nothing short of a good time. With the warm weather officially kicking off the summer, and the excitement of the World Cup bringing travellers to the city by the dozen, there was an unmistakable buzz in the air. The energy in the city was palpable as 19,000 people gathered together at TD Garden for Joji’s global Solaris Tour 2026. 

June 25th, 2026 marks almost 25 years since hit rock band Jimmy Eat World released their famous album “Bleed American” to the world. If you think you’ve never heard of Jimmy Eat World, you’re lying to yourself; “The Middle” is a pop-punk anthem and a radio classic that I hear at my job at least 3 times a day (however the entire album is pure gold if you haven’t listened to it yet). To celebrate the 25th anniversary of their album, the band embarked on a nationwide tour with openers Girls Against Boys & The Wonder Years, including their stop at The Stone Pony Summer Stage this past Thursday.

There is a distinct shift that happens in a room when an artist steps onstage with absolutely nothing to hide. On Monday night at The Underground in Charlotte, rising indie-folk singer Evan Honer proved that commanding a venue doesn't require a massive wall of production; it only requires raw talent and a band capable of turning acoustic grit into something cinematic.

On the night of June 4th, Clara La San emerged through a sea of smoke at The Warfield in San Francisco. As wisps of haze carried her voice through the venue, the energy of the crowd followed, spreading excitement and awe to everyone who was watching. Although her tour is titled "Chosen Silences," the atmosphere of the place was anything but silent.

For many artists, a tour cycle is tied directly to an album release, a promotional push, or a carefully orchestrated marketing campaign. For Kelsy Karter & The Heroines, however, the Pleasure Tour feels refreshingly different. The Australian/British rock 'n' roll outfit, fronted by New Zealand singer-songwriter Kelsy Karter, brought the second U.S. stop of the tour to Valley Bar in Phoenix, Arizona on June 2, 2026, proving that sometimes the best reason to hit the road is simply for the love of it.

Dance Gavin Dance is a post-hardcore band formed in Sacramento, CA, in 2005. Over the past 21 years, they've become known for earlier songs such as "It's Safe to Say You Dig the Backseat," "Uneasy Hearts Weigh the Most," and "Carl Barker," as well as newer favorites like "We Own the Night," "Death of a Strawberry," and "Chucky vs. the Giant Tortoise." The band is also known for having multiple vocalists throughout its history. Since 2024, Andrew Wells has served as Dance Gavin Dance's lead vocalist.

On Saturday, April 25, 2026, Valley Bar hosted an intimate but emotionally charged stop on Letdown.’s U.S. headlining tour—his second-to-last before wrapping the run. Despite a rocky start, the night ultimately delivered the kind of raw, communal experience that defines his growing fanbase.

The Only The Poets concert on April 24, 2026, at Niebo in Warsaw was one of those nights that right away showed just how close the band is with their Polish fans. From the first moment, it was clear this wasn’t going to be an ordinary gig. The setlist hit a sweet spot, mixing tracks from their debut album, “And I’d Do It Again,” with older songs from earlier EPs. That way, every fan had something to latch onto, no matter which phase of the band’s music they connected with most.

Across the pond from London, England, The Last Dinner Party combines a variety of sounds and aesthetics, embodying a kind of medieval indie rock with a cool-girl, ethereal flair. Their first single, “Nothing Matters,” gained popularity throughout 2023 and into 2024, followed by several additional releases that would later appear on their debut album, Prelude to Ecstasy, released in early February 2024. This past October, they released their second album, From the Prye.
