SUMMARY:Juvenile’s Boiling Point Album Release Tour
DESCRIPTION:Juvenile\nUrban\nSimply put\, hip-hop might not be the same without Juvenile. \nOver nearly three decades\, the multi platinum record-breaking New Orleans icon served up a string of classic albums\, influenced two generations of stars\, and pioneered a sound rooted in Louisiana bounce\, yet carried by worldwide rap appeal and ambition. Like all timeless stories though\, his stretches back to humble beginnings in the neighborhood his music put on the map: the Magnolia Projects. As if predisposed by destiny to pick up a microphone\, he heard Melle Mel’s verse on “The Message” by Grandmaster Flash & The Furious Five\, commenced spitting\, and never stopped since… \n“That’s really when it all started\,” he recalls. “I heard Melle Mel saying\, ‘Don’t push me\, ‘cuz I’m close to the edge’\, and that was it. I was only seven-years-old\, but I knew I had to rap.” \nHe made local waves by appearing on DJ Jimi’s “It’s Jimi” in 1991 before bringing a national spotlight to the burgeoning bounce music style on his breakthrough “Bounce for the Juvenile.” After building a fan base on his 1995 debut Being Myself\, the production of Mannie Fresh caught his ear\, and nothing would be the same. At the time\, the in-house Cash Money Records producer cooked up “Drag ‘Em ‘N’ tha River” for UNLV—a group Juvenile brought to the label. \nIn response\, Juvenile recorded “Set It Off” and knew he “had to get with Mannie Fresh.” \n“At the beginning\, I truly came to Cash Money\, because of Mannie Fresh\,” he recalls. “I knew his beats were bigger than most artists. There was something there.” \nThere definitely was… \nAfter his Cash Money Records debut Solja Rags\, he crafted an era-defining opus in the form of 400 Degreez. Not only did it go quadruple-platinum\, but it also became “the best-selling album in Cash Money Records History.” It produced staples such as the title track\, “Ha” (which JAY-Z notably remixed)\, and “Back That Azz Up.” The latter would be sampled by everyone from Drake to City Girls. The Ringer lauded 400 Degreez among the “20 Best Southern Rap Albums Ever” behind only UGK’s Ridin’ Dirty and OutKast’s Aquemini. Pitchfork bestowed a rare 9.4-out-of-10 rating upon the record\, and Kendrick Lamar cited it as one of his “Favorite Albums” in Complex and went so far as to claim\, “They had the West Coast on smash. We definitely tried to be like them.” The heat spread far and wide across the United States. \n“I remember I had a show with Funkmaster Flex in the Tunnel in New York city around the time 400 Degreez came out\,” he recalls. “Everybody told me\, ‘Don’t sing no other song\, but ‘Ha’. If you sing anything else\, they might jump on you and beat y’all up!’ I sang ‘Ha’ for forty minutes straight. It was the hardest place for any artist from the South to break into\, but I did. It really broke the mold.” \nAround the same time\, Juvenile comprised The Hot Boys alongside Lil Wayne\, B.G.\, and Turk. Together\, they smashed charts with the Get It How U Live! [1997] and the platinum Guerilla Warfare [1999]. His next solo offering\, Tha G-Code\, went double-platinum followed by the platinum Project English. Meanwhile\, 2003’s Juve The Great emerged as another unsung platinum classic as “Slow Motion” [feat. Soulja Slim] topped the Billboard Hot 100 at #1 for two weeks. He maintained a prolific pace in the ensuing years and collaborated with everyone from Future to Yo Gotti before reuniting with Cash Money Records. \n“It’s more like a family reunion than anything\,” he smiles. “It’s a friendship that never should’ve separated. Back in the day\, Baby and I were always really tight. It’s tighter now. We think differently. We know when we hit the studio\, it’s time to work. In the nineties\, it was more about trying to control the industry and be at the forefront. We’re not trying to be better than everything out there; we’re just trying to show our fanbase we can still make good music. We have a great chemistry and always have. I thought it was a good idea for him and I to do a project together. He agreed. It was something we wanted to do forever\, but never got around to it. I want him to talk that shit. I do my thing. Do your thing brother. That’s what makes our chemistry great.” \nThe chemistry thrives on their 2019 first full-length collaborative album\, J.A.G.It boldly extended Juvenile’s own legacy with unanimous praise from Pitchfork\, Rolling Stone\, and Billboard as the singles “Just Another Gangsta” and “Dreams” [feat. NLE Choppa] tallied over 20 million total streams and views. Moreover\, it preceded the stage for another collaborative effort and an O.G. Cash Money Records reunion on “Ride Dat” [feat. Lil Wayne]. \nJuvenile also inspires the next generation as his song Young Juve picks up the microphone for a bevy of upcoming singles.\nIn the end\, Juvenile continues to shape and spearhead the future of hip-hop. \n“I just want people to enjoy the music\,” he leaves off. “I want to keep making good music. It’s all about a positive mood. Birdman and I are going to continue this. We’ve got a whole new breath of fresh air coming from my way. We’re going to get this bread.”

SUMMARY:Bloodywood: System Of A Brown Tour 2026
DESCRIPTION:Bloodywood\nAlternative Metal \nBloodywood is a metal band from India known for pioneering a sound that seamlessly fuses Indian folk instruments with metal to devastating effect. Expect to hear the percussive power of the mighty Dhol\, the melancholic flute\, the single stringed Tumbi and several other uncommon\, yet distinctly characteristic sounds from India. A combination of thunderous Hindi/Punjabi choruses and meaningful yet unforgiving rap verses along with the ethnic instrumentation makes Bloodywood a truly unique experience. \nThe Pretty Wild\nRock \nThe Pretty Wild’s music dissolves genre boundaries and consistently represents rebellion intertwined with heartfelt lyrics. This audacious spirit creates an electrifying force that defies convention. The Pretty Wild captivates audiences hungry for something different\, singing of disillusionment\, the struggles of the industry\, and the pursuit of authenticity beyond social constructs.\nThe sisters view their key to success as a journey that cannot be bound by the restrictions of the traditional industry ways. \nLadrones\nHard Rock \nLadrones es una banda originaria de Guadalajara\, Jalisco\, perteneciente a la disquera Alzada. Principalmente experimenta con géneros urbanos como el Rock/Metal\, Hip Hop y la nueva ola de la música regional mexicana\, estilo autoproclamado como “FLOW PESADO”.\nLadrones significa diversidad\, multiculturalidad\, equilibrio y coexistencia de distintos géneros musicales.\n—\nLadrones is a band from Guadalajara\, Jalisco\, and belongs to Alzada record label. They primarily experiment with urban genres such as Rock/Metal\, Hip Hop\, and the new wave of regional Mexican music\, a style they call “Flow Pesado”\nLadrones represents diversity\, multiculturalism\, balance\, and the coexistence of different musical genres. \nAnkor\nMusic \nANKOR is an alternative metal band based in Catalonia (Spain) with female front singer/screamer Jessie Williams (Bristol\, UK)\, drummer Eleni Nota (Athens\, Greece)\, guitarist/singers David Romeu\, Fito Martinez and bassist Julio López (Tarragona\, Catalonia) formed in 2003 in ‘Els Pallaresos’ a village near Barcelona\, when its members were only around 13 years old.\nMore than 20 years later\, with several albums on their backs and a worldwide fanbase\, ANKOR is now a reference of its genre.\nIn 2014 ANKOR was chosen best newcomer band by the readers of the oldest and most prestigious rock magazine in Spain and South America; La Heavy (Heavy Rock/Kerrang). The albums\, ‘Beyond the Silence of These Years’ (2017) and ‘White Dragon’ (2019) raised the band to a new level\, allowing ANKOR to start doing headlining tours over Europe and Asia.\nANKOR’s latest work SHOGANAI is a mini album that contains all songs released in 2023/2024\, also known as ‘Chapters’\, which are helping the band make a huge step forward\, reaching a bigger audience\, playing several sold out shows in their headlining DARKBEAT European Tour (October 2023) and opening the door to the biggest metal festivals like Wacken Open Air (Germany)\, Hellfest (France)\, Tuska (Finland)\, Bloodstock Open Air (UK) or Resurrection Fest (Spain). 2025 started with ANKOR’s longest and biggest headlining EU/UK tour ever\, with 30 shows in 17 different countries.

SUMMARY:Electric Avenue ‘The 80s MTV Experience’
DESCRIPTION:Electric Avenue\nPop Rock \nWhat started out as a one-off party gig has turned into a decade-long run\, playing 100+ live concerts each year across the US and abroad. \nAn Electric Avenue show is a high energy space that reminds people of a time when they came home from school\, put a record on\, and listened with open ears and an open heart; conjuring first dates\, first cars\, prom nights\, weekend movies\, and meeting friends at the mall\, while finding a sense of fashion and an identity all their own. At an EA show\, 80’s music is as alive and well today as it has ever been. \nIf authenticity is your thing\, Electric Avenue meticulously and painstakingly recreates every nuance and flavor of your favorite 80’s songs. Delving into their personal stash of vintage synthesizers and rare signal processors\, an Electric Avenue show is a true labor of love. In fact\, Electric Avenue’s sound is so close to that of the original artists that in 2019 Warner Music issued a cease-and-desist for using original artists recordings on their social channels. After hearing the complete live recording of Electric Avenue’s performance\, Warner Music issued an apology to the band. \nElectric Avenue has sailed the high seas with the The Walking Dead Cast\, Kid Rock\, The Impractical Jokers\, Joey Fatone\, and Pitbull. In 2019\, EA was hand-picked and flown to Asbury Park\, NJ to provide the soundtrack for the red carpet launch of the Bruce Springsteen\, Gurinder Chadha (Bend it Like Beckham)\, New Line Entertainment 80’s-centric film\, Blinded By The Light. They have had the privilege of being direct support for 80’s legend Pat Benatar\, and have been joined on stage by\, among others\, members of Toto\, Player\, Talk Talk\, and Little River Band. \nAs artists\, the musicians in Electric Avenue have had a hand in the sale of over 15 million albums worldwide.\nIf namedropping is your thing\, you may have seen or heard these guys with: Lionel Richie\, Paul Simon\, Idina Menzel\, Daniel Lanois (producer for U2\, Peter Gabriel)\, Brian Blade\, Emmy Lou Harris\, B-52s\, Little River Band\, Michael Malarkey (Vampire Diaries)\, Zac Brown Band\, Player\, RENT (our singer played Roger Davis from 2001-2004)\, Paula Cole\, Tracy Chapman\, Bobby Kimball (Toto) Kristian Bush (Sugarland)\, Shanice\, Edwin McCain\, Robbie Dupree\, Rita Wilson\, Lindsay Ell\, Boston\, Collective Soul\, Mother’s Finest\, Sister Hazel\, Yanni\, Boyz II Men\, and more. \nEvery sound. Every nuance. Every time. That’s Electric Avenue.

SUMMARY:Violent Vira – Our Lady of Sorrows Tour
DESCRIPTION:Violent Vira\nAlternative Rock\nA girl abandoned by her lover is ostracized by the people of the small religious town she lives in for refusing to believe he fled the scene of a deadly crime. Following the last signal from his cell phone\, she arrives at the location he was last pinned only to find yards of bloodstained caution tape wrapped around the trees and a chalk outline on the road. The unspoken horror before her fractures her sanity with unexpected grief. Desperate for answers\, she returns to the scene in search of clues\, only to be met by the silent gaze of a ghost standing in the corner of where it all took place. Will she come to terms with the reality of her abandonment\, rooted in homicide\, or will she let her mind be consumed by the illusion of a lover who will never leave?

SUMMARY:CLUTCH: Suffer No Evil US Tour
DESCRIPTION:Clutch\nHeavy Metal\nCLUTCH shares more in common with The Grateful Dead\, Rush\, and the Allman Brothers than their heavy riffs and heady twists-of-phrase might suggest. Because like those bands\, the supporters who adore CLUTCH are there for the experience\, community\, and authentic connection. \nTo love CLUTCH is to feel a sense of ownership\, membership\, and belonging. \nSeneca Valley High School classmates Neil Fallon (vocals)\, Tim Sult (guitar)\, Dan Maines (bass)\, and Jean-Paul Gaster (drums) share an unshakeable musical and personal bond now three decades strong. Shaped by the same region which birthed Bad Brains\, Minor Threat\, and Rites Of Spring\, CLUTCH crafts hyper-literate and libertine jams informed by hardcore fury and fuzzy\, athletic\, stoner rock. \nA worldwide cabal of fans and critics cherish the band’s dense and diverse catalog of underground classics\, released through major labels\, indies\, and since 2009\, Clutch’s own Weathermaker imprint. Sunrise On Slaughter Beach\, the band’s thirteenth studio album\, is a slamming summary of everything that makes the band great and another giant leap forward into career longevity. \n“There’s no question that Clutch etched themselves a name in the pantheon of great rock bands\,” Lambgoat wrote in 2004. Classic Rock Magazine counted 2013’s Earth Rocker and 2015’s Psychic Warfare among the 50 Best Rock Albums of the 2010s. Rolling Stone described 2018’s Book of Bad Decisions as “bathed in the grit and liberal fuzz tone that have made their live shows legendary.” \nThose live shows over the years include tours with Slayer\, System Of A Down\, and Marilyn Manson\, and more recent co-headlining treks with Dropkick Murphys\, Killswitch Engage\, and Mastodon. Like Slayer or Iron Maiden\, CLUTCH outlasted rock bands anchored to “hit songs” and the pressure of replicating them. The foursome from Germantown\, Maryland\, isn’t bound by trends. Across 13 studio albums and assorted releases since 1991\, they’ve earned a reputation as one of the best around. \nCorrosion of Conformity\nHeavy Metal\nCorrosion of Conformity (also known as C.O.C.)\, was founded in North Carolina by guitarist Woody Weatherman in the early 1980s as one of the first punk metal fusion bands. C.O.C. were known in their early years for their aggressive sound\, their clever political lyrics and their willingness to turn away from hardcore and metal conventions. Their shift to a more essential and reduced sound (kind of a deep-South Black Sabbath) in the 1990s brought them closer to the alternative metal zeitgeist and gave them some favors within the mainstream scene. \nC.O.C.’s debut was the 1983 thrashy and BLACK FLAG influenced “Eye For An Eye”\, which brought the lineup Weatherman\, drummer Reed Mullin\, vocalist Eric Eycke\, and bassist Mike Dean to the screen for the first time. They laid the first stone of their cult after the 1985 release “Animosity”. However\, their former label didn’t cope with the band’s internal instability – Eycke had to be replaced by Simon Bob – and gave them up after “Technocracy” (1987). It took several years until a new lineup could come together – with Weatherman\, guitarist Pepper Keenan\, Mullin\, vocalist Karl Agell\, and bassist Phil Swisher – but it finally resulted in the release of “Blind” (1991)\, a powerful\, focused\, metallic record which significantly increased their audience. Agell would be fired after this success\, with Keenan becoming the full-time vocalist on the even more Sabbath inspired “Deliverance” (1994) which also saw the return of original bassist Mike Dean. “Deliverance” would eventually go Gold in America (500\,000 units sold) and be the band’s most successful album. In 1995\, Keenan made a short detour to the southern metal supergroup DOWN (also featuring PANTERA’s Phil Anselmo and members of CROWBAR). \nThanks to a change in popular taste in favor of the ultra-heavy side of alternative metal which helped the band getting established\, C.O.C. found a bigger fan base than ever before with the release of “Wiseblood” (1996)\, expanding their rock radio success even further. After a long break from recording and a tour with METALLICA\, C.O.C. came back in autumn 2000 with a new album entitled “America’s Volume Dealer”. Another break followed\, and the band came back in April 2005 for the harsh and complex “In the Arms of God”. C.O.C. had another break (members were involved in several side projects) until 2010\, when drummer Reed Mullin rejoined the band\, reviving the lineup of “Animosity” while Pepper Keenan stayed with his other band DOWN. The remaining trio started to work on new material and released the eponymous eighth record “Corrosion of Conformity” in 2012. Their ninth album\, wisely named IX\, came out in 2014. \nIn 2018\, CORROSION OF CONFORMITY returned with “No Cross No Crown” – featuring the return of the legendary “Deliverance” and “Wiseblood” era line-up of Keenan\, Weatherman\, Dean\, and Mullin. The album received both critical and fan acclaim and charted at #67 on the Billboard Top 200 (their fifth album to chart in the Top 200) . In 2020\, tragedy struck the band as Reed Mullin passed away. Keenan\, Weatherman\, and Dean would continue on. \nIn 2024\, Mike Dean decided to part ways with the band. Upon his departure\, Keenan and Weatherman announced their promise to keep the COC legacy moving forward with a new album in 2026 and an active return to touring. \nJD Pinkus\nRock\nJD Pinkus is an American bassist best known for his work with American punk band Butthole Surfers from1985 to 1994 and since the 2009 reunion. In 1990\, he and Butthole Surfers’ lead vocalist Gibby Haynes released Digital Dump\, the only album from their psychedelic house music side project The Jackofficers. Upon leaving Butthole Surfers\, Pinkus worked full-time with the Austin trio Daddy Longhead\, which he had assembled during his waning months in the band\, and which included longtime Atlanta associate Jimbo Young on guitar and Rey Washam on drums. Daddy Longhead retired after 10 years\, leaving Pinkus free to explore other projects including Skinny Leonard and Areola 51. Pinkus played with Helios Creed on his albums NUGG The Transport [1996] and Activated Condition [1998]\, and has also collaborated with Bad Livers frontman Danny Barnes several times in a live setting. JD Pinkus then co-founded the band Honky who went on to record five albums and are still currently active. Pinkus also performs with Pure Luck\,who released a self-titled release in 2017 on Heavy Feather Records. He leaves his bass to play Banjo and Guitar in this project. On their 30th anniversary tour in 2013\, Pinkus joined the Melvins in place of Jared Warren (on paternity leave) as well as performing with the opening Honky.

In 2018\, JD Pinkus released a solo album\, Keep on the Grass on cassette tape on Danny Barnes Minner Bucket Records and later Vinyl and Compact Disc through Heavy Feather Records. It was recorded entirely on banjo and features a rendition of the song Bride of Crankenstein from the Melvins album Hold It In.

A duo album with Tall Tall Trees called Ponder Machine was released June 20th 2023 on Shimmy Disc. The follow up solo album ‘Grow A Pear’ was released on Shimmy Disc\, June 20 2024 and was a combination of songs originally written for the Butthole Surfers album that was not to be and the other side is a continuation to the solo banjo releases but with friends joining in.
