For INZO, there’s a thrill in possibility. The Denver-based electronic artist is less concerned with labels and more with creating immaculate vibes and moving melodies. “If I could make any and every genre,” he says, “I would.” He lives up to that mission through luminescent synth lines that flutter through his tracks like fireflies, chest-caving bass, and wistful, nostalgic vocal samples.

Aimee Mann is one of the most distinguished singer-songwriters of her generation. Her successful solo career has spanned several decades with several Grammy nominations, two Grammy awards, and the release of nine critically acclaimed solo albums, including the profoundly popular soundtrack for the film Magnolia, which garnered an Academy Award and Golden Globe nomination for Best Song in 2000. Time magazine has said, “Mann has the same skill that great tunesmiths like McCartney and Neil Young have: the knack for writing simple, beautiful, instantly engaging songs,” while NPR voted her one of the “TOP 10 Best Living Songwriters” along with Paul McCartney, Bob Dylan, and Bruce Springsteen. Her release "Mental Illness" won her a Grammy for Best Folk Album in 2018.

With an ethos rooted in exploration, STS9 has been a sonic pioneer for two decades. Using electronic and acoustic means, the instrumental five-piece—comprised of Hunter Brown (guitar/programming), Jeffree Lerner (percussion), David Phipps (keyboards), Zach Velmer (drums), and Alana Rocklin (bass)—channels the primordial and celestial, producing a cutting-edge sound that has forged a path for multiple generations of electronic dance music.

A sense of urgency drives Silversun Pickups. The GRAMMY® Award-nominated Los Angeles quartet create and perform with eloquence and intensity all at once. Guitars may restlessly roar and rumble, only to be reined in by the spell of a saccharine melody or a honeyed hook. This push-and-pull has catapulted the group—Brian Aubert [vocals, guitar], Nikki Monninger [bass, vocals], Christopher Guanlao [drums], and Joe Lester [keys]—out of a crowded and competitive local scene and into the wide open space of some of the world’s biggest stages.

Drew Holcomb
There are no strangers at a Drew Holcomb show. For nearly two decades, the award-winning songwriter has turned each performance into a celebration of community, collaboration, and contemporary American roots. Strangers No More, the band’s eighth album, captured this spirit and spun the #1 Americana song, “Find Your People”—a track that was synced in multiple national campaigns, including a Super Bowl commercial for Publix. The Neighbors also showcased their heartfelt connection when they performed live at the Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade.

Ellie Holcomb
After an 8-year journey alongside her husband’s band, Ellie Holcomb’s solo debut, As Sure As The Sun, earned her Top 10 radio success and a GMA Dove Award for New Artist of the Year. Her third solo full-length, CANYON, further established her voice with another Top 10 radio single, “I Will Carry You.” A best-selling author, Ellie has moved over 600,000 books, including several children’s titles and a devotional. Her dedication to creative excellence has earned her four GMA Dove Awards to date. Her upcoming studio album, Far Country, releases on September 12th.

Joe Jackson was born on August 11 1954 in Burton-on-Trent, England, but grew up in the South Coast naval port city of Portsmouth

At age 16 Joe played his first paying gig, as pianist in a pub next door to a glue factory just outside of Portsmouth. This was followed by other pub gigs (in which he was often trying to entertain crowds of drunken, bottle-throwing sailors) and accompanying a bouzouki player in a Greek restaurant.
