Dillinger Four and various artists released new music featured in BrooklynVegan's weekly playlist.
The new dates arrive in and around Dacus' summer festival appearances, which include sets at Winnipeg Folk Festival, Ottawa Bluesfest, Minnesota Yacht Club, and San Francisco's Outside Lands. The run also follows her previously-announced West Coast run in May, where she'll play shows in Vancouver, Sacramento, Salt Lake City (for Kilby Block Party), and more.
In an Instagram post, the band stressed that while Fogarino "played and co-wrote the new record," he is "still not available" to join them on the road. The percussionist underwent spinal surgery in 2023.
Gangstagrass occupies a lane that sounds unlikely on paper and surprisingly natural in practice. The collective blends bluegrass instrumentation with hip-hop rhythms, pairing banjo rolls and fiddle runs with sharp lyricism and boom-bap backbone.
Indie veterans of Montreal have announced an expansive 2026 North America tour set for June through August. Cormae and Sloppy Jane will serve as openers on select dates for the Kevin Barnes-led band. Spanning 36 dates, the summer run kicks off on June 19th in Athens, Georgia, with subsequent stops in major cities including New York City, Chicago, Nashville, Los Angeles, and Washington, DC.
Panopticon and Catharsis are doing a short co-headlining East Coast tour together this fall! The tour kicks off in Boston on October 8 before hitting Brooklyn's Market Hotel on October 9 and then shows in Philly and Baltimore. Tickets go on sale Friday (3/6).
Terror remain a veteran hardcore band that is deeply involved with the current hardcore scene, and every band opening this tour is a band that's shaping the future of hardcore as we speak: LIHC ass-kickers Pain of Truth, Baltimore's charismatic End It, and LA youth crew revivalists Start Today.
Charley Crockett has announced a summer tour in support of his upcoming album Age of the Ram, which will have him out with Durand Jones & The Indications, Nat Myers, Sierra Hull, Pony Bradshaw, and others along the way.
The album, he added, "changed our lives. It put us on a map. It gave us a new, broad audience of people that found something in it that they connected with. People have grown up with this record, right alongside us growing up, and I feel like it's important to celebrate it. It's important to acknowledge to people that we appreciate that, despite the obvious commerce involved."
That was the case - by all accounts - regarding our summer tour last year with Spin Doctors and Gin Blossoms. We grew up with Spin Doctors as pups in the same litter... ours is a shared origin story. But working with Gin Blossoms was a first. Their music was everywhere when we were coming up, and yet only last summer did we have the opportunity to learn how fun it is playing with them - and to discover how much energy our three bands put out in combination.
hemlocke springs' fantastic debut album, The Apple Tree Under The Sea, is out today via AWAL - you can read our review in Notable Releases. To celebrate the release, she's releasing a new video of the final track, "be the girl!," a euphoric bop. It's directed by Quinn Whitney Wilson and premieres at 12:59 PM ET.
James Taylor has announced a 29-date 2026 tour with his All-Star band. Taylor's trek will take place this summer and fall, kicking off on April 26th in Highland, California, at the Yaamava Theater and concluding on September 26th in Hollywood, Florida, at Seminole Hard Rock Hotel & Casino. Along the way, he'll play shows in San Diego, Santa Barbara, Las Vegas, Atlantic City, Boston, Atlanta, and elsewhere. Check out the full list of tour dates below.
Finnish psychedelic black metal band Oranssi Pazuzu released two great albums in the past six years, but they haven't toured this part of the world since before either of them came out. That will soon change; they've announced a North American tour, their first in seven years, happening in May following their set at Northwest Terror Fest and surrounding their set at Maryland Deathfest.
sunn O))) recently announced their first album for Sub Pop and a tour, and they've now made a few noteworthy additions to the latter, announcing shows in San Francisco ( March 30 at The Regency Ballroom), Los Angeles ( March 31 at United Theater), and NYC ( April 12 at Town Hall, presented by Le Poisson Rouge). Tickets go on sale Friday, January 30 at 10 AM local.
Shows are in May and Jun, with support from Cloud Nothings; We wouldn't be a band today without them and we couldn't be more excited, they say. They'll also have Anthers, University, fanclubwallet, Liquid Mike and Pure Hex each joining them varying by show, and you can see all dates below. The NYC show is at Music Hall of Williamsburg on May 22. Tickets are on sale now.
Fresh off an eventful Grammys for both Post Malone (who led the all-star Ozzy tribute) and Jelly Roll (who won three awards and got worked into a Trevor Noah joke about his and Teddy Swims' face tattoos), the two have announced a sequel to the Big Ass Stadium Tour that they first went on in 2025 surrounding Post Malone's headlining appearances at Coachella.
Jim E Brown, the self-professed 19-year-old singer "born in Manchester on September 10, 2001, just one day before the 911″ just wrapped up a short bicoastal run of shows with two sold-out nights at Trans-Pecos in Queens. At night 2 (1/24), backed by a full band Jim E. played such hits as "I Urinated on a Butterfly," "I Know I'm Going to Die of a Stroke," "I'm Naked in my Room Huffing Nitrous Balloons," "I'm Writing Love Letters at McDonald's" and, at five different times throughout the set, "Rat in Bin."
