2026 Easy Honey -from Charleston, SC -Easy Honey is a Charleston, SC based indie rock band that infuses its singer-songwriter folk roots with an original mix of nostalgic East Coast surf-rock. Originating at The University of The South: Sewanee over a cooler filled with freshman year college punch, the dynamic of this group is one of their strongest elements, existing with an electricity and a true sense of comradery both on and off stage. The tremendous creative power between the band’s members Selby Austin (vocals, guitar), Darby McGlone (vocals, guitar), Charlie Holt (drums, vocals) and Webster Austin (bass, vocals) is on full display in their versatile new EP, Plaid (out April 30 via Third Brother Records), which they wrote and recorded over a three-day session at an isolated cabin in snowy Marble, Colorado. Mixed with a steady sheen by the legendary Tony Hoffer (Beck, Phoenix, The Kooks, Air, M83), the rapid-fire five-song set deepens their beachy indie-pop style with vibrant new colors as they serve up witty melodies, catchy, relatable hooks and raucous yet sentimental lyrics about love, wistfulness and life’s big moments. Easy Honey, like so many of their mutual rock heroes, cut their teeth on the road and have built a devoted following of daydreamers and night seekers through extensive touring and sold-out gigs. Just like their live shows, which have taken them to audiences nationwide, their influences remain all over the map and pull from the classic rock and power-pop staples of their parents’ record collections (Big Star, Neil Young), up through '90s alt heroes Blind Melon as well as indie tunesmiths like Dr. Dog. This winter, Easy Honey will support The Runarounds (from the hit Amazon Prime Series) ahead of their own headline tour and will appear as an official showcasing artist at SXSW. No matter if they’re harmonizing next to a beach bonfire or exploring the rhythmic twists of a funky riff on stage, their music inevitably pulls you closer with an open-armed, all-are-welcome spirit. Jack Shields & The Mojave Rush -from Ridgefield, CT -Jack Shields is an indie rock musician based in Los Angeles, blending Americana and grunge through detuned electric guitars, pedal steel, and unvarnished songwriting. Raised in Connecticut, he worked a string of odd jobs—pizza cook, stagehand, ski lift operator—before heading west to chase music full-time. In 2023, Shields joined the folk-rock band Richy Mitch & The Coal Miners, touring internationally and contributing to multiple releases. The experience sharpened his instincts as both a player and a songwriter, grounding his work in the realities of the road. In July 2025, he released his debut double album Cherry Pick the Past under the name Jack Shields & The Mojave Rush. The twenty songs move between country dirges and blown-out garage rock, drawn from years of writing rather than a single moment. Influenced by Neil Young, Pavement, and Wilco, Shields’ music carries equal parts grit and drift—songs that feel unearthed rather than written. The Mojave Rush isn’t a fixed lineup so much as a framework. The band operates as a rotating cast of musicians and friends, built around songs about flawed people, small failures, and the quiet absurdity of everyday life, with guitar feedback never far behind. Sun Casino -from San Francisco, CA -A by-product of quarantine, Sun Casino was formed by 3 SF transplants hailing from Atlanta, Nashville and SLO. The trio has taken the city by storm with a slew of packed Friday and Saturday night sets at local venues. Sun Casino’s catchy lyrics and jangly guitar hooks have resonated deeply with the local SF indie rock scene. The band’s debut EP ‘Stripe Nite’ has been met by overwhelming positivity from fans across the west coast. ‘Stripe Nite’ is streaming on all platforms now! |
