FIVE

The Runarounds Indie Rock Known for turning every stage into a wild, full-throttle rock show, The Runarounds are a five-piece alt-rock band—Axel Ellis (guitar/vocals), Jesse Golliher (bass/vocals), Jeremy Yun (lead guitar), William Lipton (guitar/vocals), and Zende Murdock (drums).Starting with a weekly residency at a beach bar in Wilmington, the band grew up on the road, playing college campuses, festivals, and venues across the country, including a packed night at the legendary Troubadour in Los Angeles.Their songs channel therestless spirit of youth—equal parts frenetic, heartfelt, and unfiltered—balancing punchy guitar riffs with anthems about friendship, escape, and finding your place in the world. That raw, high-energy spirit is captured on The Runarounds Live at USC (produced by Jerry Harrison of Talking Heads), but it’s onstage where they truly shine—loud, sweaty, and unapologetically fun. That same energy is now reaching screens worldwide through their Amazon Prime series,The Runarounds, with their latest album serving as the official soundtrack to the show. After a completely sold out headlining tour in the fall of 2025 and streaming numbers exploding into the millions,The Runarounds are back on tour by popular demand—ready to bring fans into their world, one chaotic, unforgettable night at a time. Foxtide Indie Pop Made up by Elijah Gibbins-Croft, Oey James, and Ian Robles, Foxtide is a byproduct of being bred by the beach and raised by a DIY house show scene. The SoCal three-piece was formed around garage jam sessions and earned their cult following through the intense vitality of their live shows. First starting to release music in 2019, it was the band’s second EP Visons in 2021 that took them from a hometown secret to a band to watch nationally. Foxtide has previously played alongside The Backseat Lovers, Echo &amp; The Bunnymen, Lime Cordiale, Sarah and the Sundays, Mustard Service, Beach Goons, and joined the lineup of Shabang, Nothing Fest, and more. Moving into the chapter of their next project, Foxtide is abandoning the idea that they need to create “perfect” music, and simply making what they like to listen to. Tinged with the aloofness of early 2000s rock, while experimenting with the formulas of modern pop, all threads are knotted in the authenticity behind Foxtide’s unrelenting love for music. The band's third EP 'Paradise' helped them secure critical looks from Fashionably Early 'Bands that Deserve to be Bigger', Luna Collective Magazine, and their debut LA headline show selling out. Their most recent record earned them the cover of Fashionably Early's playlist as well as their first editorial look from Spotify in 'All New Rock,' and Apple's 'New In Rock' and 'New In Alternative.' On the heels of the deluxe version, the band secured support tours with Arcy Drive, Pity Party Girls Club, and more to be announced. Foxtide has most recently signed a record deal with Position Music, and is gearing up for their second full length LP

Frank Foster &amp; Creed Fisher - live performance at FIVE. Frank Foster embodies musical independence at its highest level. He not only has taken the road less traveled, but the road almost never traveled. Acting as his own record label, management and publishing company, he has managed to find success that some major label artists may never find. This rural Louisiana native and former oilfield man has taken his songs from the campfire to the coliseum seemingly overnight, all the while gaining a following of fans whose loyalty is unmatched. His musical journey started in 2011 with the release of his first album “Rowdy Reputation”. To follow that up, in the late summer of 2012, he released his second album “Red Wings and Six Strings” which debuted at #30 on the Billboard Country Charts and #1 on Billboard’s South Central U.S. Heat Seeker’s chart. Foster’s next five albums also all debuted on the Billboard Country Charts. Southern Soul was released in 2013 debuting at #11. Rhythm and Whiskey was released in 2014 debuted at #4. His early 2016 release, Boots On The Ground, debuted at #7. Later in 2016, he released Good Country Music, which debuted at #13. In 2018, he released his seventh album, ’Til I’m Gone, which debuted at #2 on the Billboard Country Album Sales Charts giving Foster his highest mark yet. He’s a singer, a songwriter and his own boss. He refuses to let anyone water down his kind of country music. If he lives it, he writes it; if he writes it, he sings it; if he sings it, he believes it. Frank Foster … a true original. Creed Fisher Outlaw Country “The odds were against me all along, but I just wouldn’t go away.” All-American musician Creed Fisher is a storyteller, hard worker, and a rising Outlaw Country star from West Texas. With around half a billion streams on all distribution platforms, and over 100 million views on YouTube alone, Fisher’s raw, unfiltered, and unique sound blends traditional country with some modern elements. “A big part of my music is patriotic and for the working class.”

Elmiene R&amp;B “This phase is really the beginning of Elmiene,” says the 24-year-old artist, born Abdala Elamin. “[It] feels like the first time I can really say with full confidence, every single thing I did on this project was intentional. Instead of like ‘I don’t know how I pulled that off, that was crazy!’” he laughs. It’s hard to believe that his voice wasn’t always destined for this path but, a poet-turned-accidental-artist initially, it was Elmiene’s very first song attempt that sparked the whirlwind start of his career. And his ascent to international soul prodigy status has been swift and captivating ever since. Before he knew it, he was soundtracking a Louis Vuitton show, gaining early fans in the likes of Benji B, Sampha, Stormzy and more and going viral online with covers of his favourite artists.
But since that fateful debut in 2022, he’s shown no signs of slowing, or of winging it. The fluke-like journey he’s referencing has seen him documenting his entire process of curiosity, exploration and often striking gold, in the form of five critically-acclaimed projects in just three years (11 if you count the live and remix versions). It’s seen him featured on the BBC Sound of Poll, nominated for Rising Star awards at both the BRITS and The Ivors, supporting Stevie Wonder and SZA, gracing NPR’s Tiny Desk, and touring around the world to sold-out swooning crowds.
With all that under his belt, this year brings the British-Sudanese artist’s debut full-length album, titled sounds for someone. Not unlike the songbook style label of his idol Stevie’s Songs in the Key of Life, it’s a name that promises to deliver on both the personal and the universal, a project that’s intimate and ambitious. “To me personally, it’s about my dad and my relationship with him when he was alive, and the loss, me and my mum’s relationship with him, their relationship, it’s basically a collection of songs based on all the emotions centred around him,” he says. “But I’m a firm believer in ‘the songs belong to you until you release them’... it’s up to people to experience and listen to in their lives, whatever they may be. So that ‘someone’ was perfect because it does kind of [imply] that it’s about a specific person, but it keeps it open where that someone for you could be anyone.”
Written over the course of dedicated months writing between Barbados and LA, the project’s central muse felt less like a choice and more of a pressing urge. “I couldn’t help it. Every time I sat down to write a song, the direction always went [towards my dad],” he says. “When I wrote ‘Cry Against the Wind’, I realised I have a song that the rest of the body of work will revolve around. That really talks about the crux of my feelings of guilt with my dad, acceptance, grief, all of these things embodied in this one song, and I went ‘a-ha, this is it.’” The first track released, it’s a raw declaration of love, as he cries, ‘I’d watch the whole world drown to see you cry again’. Laced with hazy guitars, provided by Mk.gee collaborator Andrew Aged - who plays across the whole project - the track builds and its mournful mist transcends in a thrilling new sonic direction for the singer. ‘Reclusive’ in contrast is a honeyed meditation on self-isolation that is sung so sweetly it almost sounds like a daydream. Written about a bout of sickness where the Oxford-raised singer didn’t leave the house for 14 days, and in the process, found a renewed appreciation for the outside world. ‘Time Doesn’t Heal’ flips that script once again to imagine his father’s perspective on the sacrifice he made when he left his family, his whispery falsetto chronicling that specific, permanent sting of feeling unchosen by fate.

Smells Like Nirvana Grunge Celebrate the legendary sounds of Nirvana &amp; Kurt Cobain with national traveling Nirvana tribute 'Smells Like Nirvana’ as they perform songs from Nevermind, In Utero, Bleach, and more (b sides/rare songs).
Make song requests/get tix at smellslikenirvanatribute.com
Smells Like Nirvana is based out of Chicago and is composed of seasoned pros and die-hardfans of Nirvana fronted by Paul Wandtke (ex Trivium, Dead Original), w/ drummer Sean McCole and bassist Mike Petrasek (Bedlem). Their live tribute to Nirvana is a haunting episode of grunge filled angst playing songs from Nirvana's albums Bleach, Nevermind, In Utero and MTV Unplugged as well as rare b-sides and more; played without click tracks or backing tracks, a trait that is rare in today’s contemporary musical landscape, a trait and philosophy that Nirvana lived by.
Dead Original Rock Dead Original is the hard rock trio w/ grunge undertones from Chicago, IL started by Paul Wandtke whom got his start in the music industry as a work for hire drummer over the years drumming for such acts as Trivium, Kill Hannah and even the hit musical Rock of Ages. Feeling inspired to pick up a guitar after always feeling like something was missing in life, he now fronts Dead Original with TY DEL ROSE (EX SMILE EMPTY SOUL) on drums and Mike Petrasek (Bedlem) on bass. Dead Original is a blend of grunge, groove power, simple riffs, melodic hooks and some progressive elements via some tastefully placed odd meters. Their motto and creed is #grungelives #makerockgreatagain #makegrungegreatagain<a href="https://eventvesta.com/events/147475/t/tickets" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">View Tickets &amp; More Info</a>
