Mihali w/ Special Guests
Mihali
For Mihali, music behaves much like a living being. It grows, it matures, and it changes with a sentient consciousness and with whims of its own. And just like music, the Vermont-based singer, songwriter, guitarist, and co-founder of rock outfit Twiddle continues to evolve, using his gift as one of the strongest modern-day songwriters, guitarists and performers to bring healing vibes and unforgettable songs to the world.
His latest record, Effection [2022, Ineffable Records], is a ten-track body of work that intertwines reggae spirit, fluid soundscape architecture, and invigorating mantras meant to be chanted aloud in a packed venue. With support from reggae and roots rock mainstays like Iration, Chadwick Stokes (of Dispatch), The Movement, The Elovaters, Jacob Hemphill (of SOJA), and Iya Terra, Effection effectively brought Mihali into the reggae spotlight, landing him on tour with SOJA and G. Love & Special Sauce in 2024.
Now he continues to grow and transform with his music, continuously rolling out new songs while mapping out his 3rd solo album, and relentlessly touring the country to spread love and reggae spirit to all those who need it.

Demun Jones
2024-09-22 19:00 | Buffalo Iron Works, 49 Illinois St, Buffalo, NY, 14203, United States
Demun Jones
Every corner of the country tells its own story as part of the larger American experience. Nestled in the heart of Georgia, occupying approximately 395 sq. miles lies Jones County, the place Demun Jones proudly calls home. Demun is a rapper, singer, songwriter and independent artist whose music is infused with rustic instrumentals, hip-hop fundamentals and exceptional lyricism.
“I found my individuality by rapping over the acoustic guitar,” he notes. “I didn’t even mean for it to be unique, it was just, me. I grew up surrounded by hayfields listening to N.W.A. and Ozzy Osbourne. If you throw that in a blender, Demun Jones is what you get. Once I’d lived a bit, lost a bit, won some, and experienced my fair share, I could tell my own story. I’d never been to Compton, but I had an idea of what it was like from listening to West Coast rap. So, that inspired me, ‘What if I write about living in Jones County in a creative way?’ I’m giving you country stories told through the lens of rap music.”
Demun grew up the third of six children, with two older brothers who first introduced him to the music of Black Sabbath, Led Zeppelin, Jimi Hendrix and AC/DC – who he experienced as his first live concert. His mom would spin the classics of the Jackson 5, Marvin Gaye, Jim Croce and Jones County’s very own, Otis Redding. Demun recalls, “For as long as I can remember, there was always music in our home.”
During the time of waiting for music videos to air on Friday evenings and building his own library of favorite artists, some of which included Tupac, Biggie, Wu-Tang Clan, and Johnny Cash, at the age of fifteen Demun began writing his own ryhmes. He admits, “I couldn’t sing like Otis Redding or play the guitar like Jimmy Page, but I knew I could try to rap like the Bestie Boys.” After having his stereo stolen from his car, Demun would ride around tapping a beat on his window and freestyling ryhmes to entertain his friends.
From an early age, Demun was all to familiar with the meaning of hard work. He worked as a brick mason along side his father and brothers during the hot summer days of his school years and continued early on during the pursuit of his dreams in music.
“My dad has been laying bricks since he was twelve. I didn’t do it out of necessity, but he did. I lived a much different childhood than my parents did because he and my mom worked so hard. I wanted to be like him. He wasn’t drinking beer and watching football; he was working, laying bricks, and doing whatever it took to make sure we were provided for. There aren’t enough young people learning how to do this, but it’s so important. Every building has a foundation, and someone has to do the dirty work. It’s powerful to be able to build something with your hands.”
As Demun continued to grind in the construction world, momentum started to build in the music world as well. In 2014, Demun dropped his breakout single “The Muddy Muddy”, paving the way for his debut album Jones County highlighted by “Boondocks”, “Tannerite” & “Rahhh” He gained even more ground with his sophomore effort, 2016’s #Beast album, which included the standout singles “Backyard Lullaby” & “Bronco” [feat. Jelly Roll].
In 2017, as a fully independent artist, Demun continued his inexhaustible hot streak, releasing four more albums including Jones In Ya Speaker [2018], Demun [2019], Southern Son [2021], and Family First & Target Practice [2022]. Additionally, “Campfire Cologne” featuring Upchurch, received an astounding 31+ million Spotify streams, while “Feeling Good” generated 18 million Spotify streams and more than 34 million views on YouTube. Furthermore, Demun had numerous successful collaborations, including the Moonshine Bandits’ “Outback (Extended Remix)” generating 20+ million Spotify streams, and “WW2.0” [feat. Adam Calhoun and Upchurch], which accumulated over 20 million Spotify streams. Simultaneously, Demun continued to packed houses, sell out venues, and meet/greet his fans while touring across the nation.
“The lyrics are very important to me,” he notes. “I love the beats, but I’ve got something to say. I want someone from far away to hear my music and be like, ‘Damn, so that’s what Jones County is like?’ I’m a dedicated husband to my wife and father to my daughters. What comes out of my mouth goes into their ears. I’m not always perfect, but I’m aware of what I’m saying. Something I’m most proud of is you can listen to most of my songs with the entire family in the car. I’ve gone through dark times in my life, but I don’t want to relive all of that over and over through my music. I want it to bring joy, as a reflection of what’s inside me. I may make a listener shed a tear from time to time, just from being real, but I’d much rather the listener be inspired to smile, want to dance, or to find some gratitude & comfort for where they are in life.”
He closed out 2022 with the Target Practice EP. “Stay Down” [feat. Brodnax & Adam Calhoun] accumulated over 12 million collective streams. He kicked off 2023 with a series of releases. First up, he reignites the fan favorite “Straw Hat” with a music video. His saucy flow simmers between the pluck of a banjo and a head-nodding beat. The title, of course, nods to his now-instantly recognizable logo as he promises, “You can do it all in a straw hat.”
“In Georgia, it can get to be 108-plus degrees,” he says. “As a young man, my job was masonry work, outside, burning to death, in the unforgiving Georgia heat. On the hottest days of the year, we’d wear a straw hat to keep the sun off our necks and shoulders. At the same time, the straw hat and beard has become the cornerstone to my brand. That was totally unintentional, but I’ll take it.”
Just as a mason would do, Demun Jones is doing the same with his music by building a sturdy legacy atop an unshakable foundation.
“Music and art are magic,” he leaves off. “You might not understand what a painting is, but it will give you a feeling. I’ve stayed at it, grown slowly and steadily over time. I haven’t stepped on anyone, haven’t stolen from anyone, and haven’t burned any bridges. This is my life, and this is what I am. I know there is no man alive who can step on stage, and perform their songs with more passion and energy than Demun Jones. I have so much love and gratitude to all my fans, because without them I would not be where I am today.”

Great Lake Swimmers w/ Abe Partridge
2024-09-25 20:00 | Buffalo Iron Works, 49 Illinois St, Buffalo, NY, 14203, United States
Great Lake Swimmers w/ Abe Partridge
Great Lake Swimmers
Featuring a blend of acoustic instruments, rural soundscapes, and wistful vocals, Great LakeSwimmers are a critically acclaimed indie-folk group led by songwriter/vocalist Tony Dekker. Based in Toronto, Ontario, the group emerged in the early 2000s with a succession of heavily atmospheric albums recorded in old silos and rural country churches. The music developed in that pastoral warmth, performed and recorded in acoustically unique and historical locales with a revolving cast of personnel. They are renowned for their homespun folk and lush, intimateAmericana in their live set.
Great Lake Swimmers celebrate their 20th anniversary in 2023 with “Uncertain Country,” an album where doubts are followed by discovery, demos end up as finished tracks, and themes of new beginnings, rear-view reflections, and ruminations on the fluidity of time form the basis of the eleven new songs.
It follows a prolonged period of collective anxiety. Recorded in different locales—and with a variety of musicians—a theme of questioning runs throughout. Even before the world turned upside down, Dekker felt mired in uncertainty: from the climate crisis to the ever-changing political landscape. The “uncertain country” chosen as the album’s theme is not a specific place. Rather, it’s a territory we, as humans ,inhabit in the 21st century — a world that, more often than not, is confusing, unfamiliar and unsettling.
“Moonlight, Stay Above”epitomizes what Great Lake Swimmers represents. A 10-voice strong women’s choir(Niagara’s Minuscule) lifts the lonely-sounding and wistful song up. As with that addition, the band on each album is fluid and always evolving.
Great Lake Swimmers were shortlisted for the prestigious Polaris Music Prize and nominated twice for Canada’s Juno Awards, with the CBC calling them “a national treasure.”
“Dekker’s preoccupation with the Canadian state of mind flourishes in his lyrics. Few songwriters are able to convey the country’s harsh beauty as well. …Canadian folk tradition personified in the 21st century” – Exclaim!
“Dekker has done a masterful job of finding that balance on The Waves, the Wake, which has enough connections to the past to satisfy long-time fans of Great Lake Swimmers even while the singer looks to the future and moves forward as an artist.” – The Georgia Straight
“A minimalist, atmospheric compendium of songs with a sonic environment the listener can easily get lost in.” – TheVue
“Ambient ZenAmericana” – Mojo

CKY with special guests CROBOT & CHASE THE COMET
2024-09-26 19:30 | Buffalo Iron Works, 49 Illinois St, Buffalo, NY, 14203, United States
CKY with special guests CROBOT & CHASE THE COMET
CKY
Once upon a time, CKY burned it all down, with a raucous, anarchic, hard rock sound soaked in the skate-punk culture that birthed them and a hard-partying lifestyle onstage and off that decimated relationships and reputations in its wake.
Chad I Ginsburg, the band’s guitarist and singer, steps into the frontman role with charisma, charm, and bravado, confidently delivering a diverse performance as he claims a position that was clearly rightfully his to own.
He’s joined in enduring partnership and musical and personal chemistry by fellow CKY cofounder, Jess Margera, the drummer whose extracurricular work in projects like The Company Band (with guys from Clutch and Fireball Ministry)expanded CKY’s horizons as much as Ginsburg’s solo work has as well.
Guns N’ Roses, Metallica, and Deftones have all personally invited CKY on tour, cementing a legacy as a hard-charging live act. CKY built a worldwide fanbase of dedicated acolytes, friends, and supporters, lovingly dubbed the CKYAlliance, with a broader group of musicians, athletes, and other creative types in the CKY family, both literally and figuratively.
Carver City (2009) debuted at #4 on the Hard Music charts. It was the secondCKY album to debut in the Top 50 on the Billboard 200: An Answer Can Be Found(2005) hit #35 upon its release. But if anything, The Phoenix is a spiritual successor to CKY’s breakthrough, Infiltrate•Destroy•Rebuild (2002), with a hint of the appropriately titled debut, Volume 1 (1999).
“We’re grown adults now with an eagle-eye perspective on who we are, what wedo, and how to do it right,” Ginsburg declares, with matter-of-fact certainty.“None of us are out there in the clouds. We’re pretty well-grounded people that have an honest perspective on where we’re at.”
The totality of the CKY experience is perhaps best summarized by a quote from enigmatic comic book legend, author, and self-proclaimed magician, Alan Moore.“My experience of life is that it is is not divided up into genres; it’s a horrifying, romantic, tragic, comical, science-fiction cowboy detective novel.You know, with a bit of pornography if you’re lucky.”
Margera observes that it was “a perfect storm of events” that led to CKY becoming a pretty popular name. “When it’s happening, you’re not paying attention. But once you get a couple of years under your belt, you realize,‘Holy shit, man. That was lucky as hell that happened to us!’, ya’ know?”
“We’re feeling rather lucky,” Ginsburg agrees. “We’re not taking things for granted. We’re saturated in gratitude. It’s an incredibly humbled CKY, with a fire to last another twenty years. The point is to go play rock n’ roll and appreciate everybody else who does it, too. It’s a lucky job to have.”

Event Information

New Orleans duo $uicideboy$ have announced the schedule for their renowned annual Grey Day Tour in 2024. Rap cousins Ruby da Cherry and $crim will embark on a 41-date arena and amphitheater tour across North America, kicking off in Nashville, TN, at Bridgestone Arena on August 7th. The highly-successful and largest Grey Day Tour to date will feature stops in Los Angeles at Crypto.com Arena, in Atlanta at State Farm Arena, in Chicago at United Center Arena, and will conclude in Lincoln, NE at Pinnacle Bank Arena on October 11th. $uicideboy$ will be performing at KeyBank Center on September 28. The opening acts for the tour include Denzel Curry, Pouya, HAARPER, Shakewell, and Ekkstacy. Below is the complete list of tour dates with supporting acts in each city.

Pre-sale tickets will be available starting tomorrow, April 4th, at 10 AM local time. General ticket sales will begin on Friday, April 5th, at 10 AM local time. Link to purchase both pre-sale and general on-sale is available HERE.

This year for Grey Day Tour 2024, $uicideboy$ have partnered with PLUS1 for something very near and dear to the group: mental health. $1 per ticket will go towards helping those that need it the most. Ruby da Cherry and $crim are very excited about this partnership, and this is only the beginning of their plans to give back to those that have given them so much.

Since its inception in 2019, the Grey Day Tour has emerged as a standout and one of the “absolute coolest” summer tours, uniting rap and hardcore genres, while also serving as a launching pad for the first national tours for many critically acclaimed artists as well as showcasing artists from their independent label G59 Records. According to Billboard, the Grey Day Tour has propelled the $uicideboy$ into the Top 20 rankings of highest-grossing hip-hop touring acts of all time.

Coinciding with the tour announcement, the group has revealed the lead track “Us Vs Them” from their eagerly awaited next full-length album, titled New World Depression, set to release on June 14. On “Us Vs Them,” the $uicideboy$ delve into facing tough challenges and feeling disconnected from society. Ruby da Cherry and $crim deliver verses about coping with personal struggles and maintaining one’s identity in a challenging world. The single has already been featured on official Spotify playlists, including New Music Friday US and landing the cover Tirade and Alternative Hip-Hop. A link to stream the single is HERE.

Throughout New World Depression, the duo navigates themes of fame, self-destruction, and the relentless search for identity amidst chaos. Across the 13-track release, their raw, unfiltered lyrics serve as a gritty narrative of personal turmoil, substance abuse, and the struggle for authenticity in a world that often feels cold and indifferent. This album is an unapologetic exploration of the darker sides of human experience, resonating with anyone who has ever felt out of place or battled with their own shadows. The album will commemorate the 10th anniversary since the formation of $uicideboy$. Album pre-save is HERE.

Since forming a decade ago in 2014, the $uicideboy$ have prolifically shared their distinctive fusion of rap, punk, and trap with audiences worldwide. Starting out as pioneers of the SoundCloud Rap movement, they have gone on to deliver a tremendous amount of music and have achieved over 20 billion all-time streams, placing them in the Top 100 streaming artists of all time. In 2023, they were one of Spotify’s Top Groups of 2023 and one of SoundCloud’s Top 5 Most Streamed Artists.

Bikini Trill w/ Hip Monarch
Bikini Trill
Bikini Trill is a vibrant surf-pop trio based in Los Angeles, California, celebrated for their unique blend of genres and captivating live performances. Founded in 2017, the band features the talents of vocalist Lauren ‘LJ’ Johnson, guitarist Tony Barker Stern, and bassist Kourosh ‘Roach’ Poursalehi.
Their eclectic sound, which skillfully merges electronic, hip-hop drums, skank island guitars, and entrancing vocal melodies, has drawn comparisons to notable acts like Santigold, Sublime, and Red Hot Chili Peppers.
In the spring of 2017, Bikini Trill made their live performance debut at the famed SXSW festival in Austin, Texas. They quickly gained momentum, embarking on their first nationwide tour in the fall of 2018, opening for New Politics and The Score. This was promptly followed by another nationwide tour in support of Reel Big Fish.
2019 marked a significant year for the band as they collaborated with Jared Watson of ‘Dirty Heads’ on their single, ‘Lost Boy’. The song premiered on 96.5FM The Buzz and gained further recognition by making it onto Spotify’s Fresh Picks Playlist. That same year, Bikini Trill embarked on their first nationwide amphitheater tour alongside 311, TheDirty Heads, Interrupters, and Dreamers. Their captivating performances at renowned
venues such as Red Rocks Amphitheater, Austin 360 Amphitheater, and Bank of New Hampshire Pavilion were met with sold-out crowds.
In addition to their impressive touring record, Bikini Trill has also graced the stages of various esteemed music festivals. Their festival performances include Wonderfront Festival, One Love, Cali Vibes Fest, Bay Fest, Reggae Rise Up Maryland & Las Vegas, Everwild, and Summer Roots Fest.
Presently, Bikini Trill is basking in the success of their latest EP release, “Hello, Welcome!” They are also preparing for a series of summer shows on the East Coast, supporting Dirty Heads, Lupe Fiasco, and Yelawolf. Their recent single, “What’s The Rush?!” has received notable recognition, earning a spot on KROQ 106.7’s Top 15 of 2022.

Moontricks w/ Will Evans
Moontricks
Based in the rustic Kootenay mountains of Western Canada, Nathan Gurley and Sean Rodman of nationally renowned electro-folk duo Moontricks draw inspiration from the ongoing cycles of the natural world. Both volatile and constant—like nature’s best offerings—the band finds solace and beauty in the fusion of seemingly disparate elements.
There’s a kind of technicolor campfire quality to their uniquely hybrid sound: Each track is steeped in tradition and polished with a futuristic sheen, mixing organic folk, roots rock, and old-time blues with modern electronic production. Since its initial release, the band’s breakout hit “Home” has reached over 10 million streams, and their original tracks have been licensed for a wide range of television networks, including Netflix and Fox Sports.
With the release of their debut full-length album Currents via Westwood Recordings, the duo reveals an ever-evolving, cohesive blend of introspective writing, soulful, gritty blues, boot-stomping basslines, and intricate electronic arrangements. Vast, intimate, and dazzling, Currents is an album about settling into feeling comfortably lost, and being okay with not knowing it all. It’s about finding joy and inspiration in the act of seeking.

Coral Moons w/ Tuesday Nite
Coral Moons
Coral Moons is an indie pop band that formed on the shores of Boston and recently relocated to the woods of Upstate New York. If they’re not tending to their gardens, taking film photos with vintage cameras, or drinking homemade wine by the fire, they’re touring nationally and hitting up major music festivals on the way.
The solitude and stillness of the cabin has had an immersive impact on lead singer and songwriter, Carly Kraft (she/her). She describes a week at their home studio in the woods, caring for her chickens, as a healing experience. Seeking refuge to heal old wounds, moving to the countryside has forced her to slow down and reclaim what was always hers — her songs.

Jimkata & Big Something w/ Fernway at Asbury Hall
2024-10-04 20:00 | Buffalo Iron Works, 49 Illinois St, Buffalo, NY, 14203, United States
Twenty6 Productions Presents: Jimkata & Big Something w/ Fernway at Asbury Hall
Jimkata
Four years after going on hiatus, Jimkata is back with a renewed sense of purpose and an extraordinary new album. Recorded in Syracuse with producer Jason Randall, Bonfires finds the trio digging deep and stretching their boundaries with bold, intoxicating arrangements fueled by swirling synthesizers and anthemic hooks. The songs here are at once modern and classic, blurring the lines between the organic and the electronic as they reckon with doubt, struggle, and perseverance in a search for truth and meaning. Like much of Jimkata’s catalog, Bonfires delivers transcendence in tight, dancefloor-ready packages, but there’s a sense of freedom at play that pushes the trios performances to new emotional heights, a kind of liberation that can only come from learning to let go of expectation and embrace the moment.
“I think the time away brought us all more maturity, more patience, an ability to see the bigger picture,” says singer/guitarist Evan Friedell. *We all gained a lot of perspective on life and the value of being in a band together.”
Indeed, the heart and soul of Jimkata has always been the enduring bonds between Friedell and his longtime bandmates, guitarist/keyboardist Aaron Gorsch and drummer Packy Lunn. Pals since middle school, the three launched Jimkata in 2005 while attending Ithaca College, where they quickly found an audience for their relentlessly feel-good performances, which grew from local house parties to club, theater, and festival dates on the strength of a series of critically acclaimed albums. Popdose hailed the band’s “bubbly sweetness,” while American Songwriter praised their “organic chemistry,” and Relix raved that the trios sound “proves that rock-based music still has a place in the world of four-on-the-floor beats.”

Big Something
Hailing from the North Carolina countryside, or “The Middle of Nowhere,” as it’s proudlydubbed on their debut album, the 6 headed musical monster known as ‘Big Something hassteadily become one of the most unique and exciting rock bands to emerge from the Southeast.Their musical alchemy is deeply rooted in the strong bond of its members-Nick MacDaniels[lead vocals, guitar], Jesse Hensley [lead guitar, vocals), Casey Cranford [saxophone, EW..”Electronic Wind Instrument*], Ben Vinograd [drums), Josh Kagel (keys, trumpet), and MattLaird [bass].
After over a decade of touring together with 7 full-length studio albums produced by GRAMMY-nominee John Custer and even their own Summer music festival The Big What?, Big Somethinghas emerged as a grassroots phenomenon in the live music community.

Fernway
Fernway was created in 2017 by 5 unique musical minds looking to redefine the sonic landscape of traditional rock. The band’s sound pulls from a wide pallet that blends elements of pop rock and alternative emo, with rudiments of jazz harmony tucked underneath, resulting in a conglomerate that is equally refreshing and unpredictable. The band’s latest releases can be heard on all major music platforms.
