Cole Chaney – Legends & Verse 2024 w/ Buckstein
Globe Hall Presents Cole Chaney – Legends & Verse 2024 with Buckstein on Friday, October 4th. “Originally from Boyd County, KY, Chaney has since relocated to Lexington and is sure to be the next big thing coming out of Kentucky. At only 21 years old, Chaney’s catalog may be small, but he already boasts an absolute masterpiece of an album in which he proves wise beyond his years. Mercy, his debut album released in 2021, is a 12-song showcase of Eastern Kentucky, blue collar anthems highlighted by Chaney’s deft lyricism and storytelling. An unknown musician prior to the album’s release, Chaney has since experienced a meteoric rise in popularity and has quickly amassed a growing and dedicated fan base, already thirsty for new music.” -Whiskey Riff – All Ages, under 16 admitted with a ticketed parent or guardian
JD Clayton w/ Leon Majcen + Jordan Smith
Globe Hall Presents JD Clayton with Leon Majcen and Jordan Smith on Friday, October 11th. The Fort Smith Arkansas native, JD Clayton, released his debut album Long Way From Home, early last year which has received overwhelming critical acclaim. There’s no artifice surrounding the Arkansas-born singer and songwriter. No glitz. No pretension or mythology. JD Clayton’s sound, and where he chooses to make it—Arkansas, the most western of the southern states—is a bridge between the southern rock on which he was raised, and the truth telling tradition from the 70s era of country music that he most favors. As a result, the songs on his thrilling new album Blue Sky Sundays, feel both lived in and completely free. Like any great songwriter, Clayton is both leader and follower, telling his own story but reveling in how it unfolds in live time and relates to listeners individually. “The album is about clarity. It’s about leaving the things that let us down behind,” Clayton says. “It’s about love and family and joy. It took me about four months of being sober to have a clear enough head to process this. I think I finally understand that piece of the puzzle at least.” All Ages, under 16 admitted with a ticketed parent or guardian

Genevieve Stokes w/ Lily Kershaw

One of alternative pop’s brightest stars, named among People’s “Emerging Artists” to watch list, Genevieve first taught herself piano at the age of eight.

The Ballroom Thieves w/ Sophia Eliana
Globe Hall Presents The Ballroom Thieves with Sophia Eliana on Saturday, September 28 — As acclaimed indie folk band The Ballroom Thieves wrote and recorded their upcoming album, one central question emerged as the theme: “What if we could all just be a little more tender?” The duo – Calin Peters (vocals, cello, bass) and Martin Earley (vocals, guitar) – started to ponder what they could do to be more self-aware of their mental health and of those around them in a world oversaturated by social media, pop-culture, and digital consumption. The result is a personal, lush, 10-track collection of thoughts on the human experience called Sundust. For more than a decade, Earley and Peters have been combining their thoughts and musical abilities. They’ve toured the US dozens of times, ventured into Europe, Canada, and even managed a journey from Maine to Hawaii to Alaska in one trip, all to play their music for the dedicated fanbase they’ve been steadily growing, person by person. The two have played beautiful theaters like Ozawa Hall at Tanglewood, well-loved festivals like Newport Folk, and legendary rooms like LA’s Troubadour. They’ve been known to power slide across stages on bloody knees with their full band and silence packed rooms for 90 minutes with their lyrics and harmonies, accompanied only by a cello and an acoustic guitar during their more intimate duo shows. Their most personal album to date, Sundust is about self-awareness, breaking down walls that trauma creates, and healing from harshness, but it’s also about finding the glimmers, the striking beauty of being a person, and a longing for connection with healthy people. Sundust will be released on April 12 via Nettwerk. – All ages, ticketed guests under 16 admitted with ticketed guardian
408 w/ Overtime Winner + The Losers Club
93.3 KTCL Punk Tacos Presents 408 with Overtime Winner and The Losers Club on Thursday, August 22 — As a DIY act, Orlando’s 408 were in rarified air, earning cosigns from the likes of Sleeping With Sirens’ Kellin Quinn, Underoath’s Aaron Gillespie and even blink-182’s Mark Hoppus for their prolific blend of turn-of-the-millennium pop-punk and modern pop, hip-hop, and EDM that swirls to create a chameleonic, state-of-the-art sound. And while million-plus-streamers like “We Don’t Get High Like We Used To,” “Backfired (ft. Taylor Acorn)” and, yes, “Mark Hoppus” introduced 408 to a worldwide audience, it’s their next chapter – a global record deal with Big Noise and a forthcoming full-length, Hot Mess – that’s poised to take them to the next level. Since forming in 2016, Mark Faroudi (vocals/bass), Nick Hanus (vocals/guitar), Nick Roque (vocals/guitar) and Jake Cerretani (drums) have never been ones to stay in their own lane. On releases like 2022’s Out Of It and 2023’s Generational EP, the quartet have embraced the playlist generation, bridging the gap between genres and eras while racking up nearly 500,000 Spotify listeners and viral TikTok moments that have reached millions more ears. “We talk a lot about not wanting to sound stale,” Cerretani explains. “I think the diversity of our sound comes from us all having our own creative itches to scratch. When someone brings an idea to the table, no matter how out of the box it might be, we’re down to go on a ride to chase something that makes us feel good.” Look no further than “Break Up With Your Girlfriend,” a sun-kissed slice of bouncy, late-’90s pop/rock written with Kyle Fishman (Dan + Shay) and Nick Bailey (Machine Gun Kelly, jxdn). It’s the sort of anthemic, elastic songwriting that fills Hot Mess, which was produced by John Feldmann, Andrew Wade and Andrew Karpovck and bridges the romantic and sarcastic with earworm melodies and a wry smile. The band wrote more than 50 songs for the album, narrowing them down to a baker’s dozen calibrated to highlight their every strength, from the sludgy excess of “666 In The Morning” and Weezer crunch-stomp “Hot Mess” to the longing “Life Goes On” and hazy, nostalgic “Remember Her Like That.” “To us, writing songs is all about feelings,” Faroudi says. “When people hit play on this album, we want them to feel how we did when we heard blink or Jimmy Eat World or Third Eye Blind for the first time.” That sense of musical escapism has been a true guiding force for 408, named after a Florida highway Faroudi frequented in his youth. “Growing up in a small town, getting on the 408 and heading to Orlando was a big deal for me,” he says. “I had a lot of life moments on that road – getting broken up with, losing a job, heading back home to visit family – and all of them are tied to songs I was able to lose myself in.” – All ages, ticketed guests under 16 admitted with ticketed guardian
