Lauren Alaina Country Pop Grand Ole Opry member and Big Loud Records powerhouse Lauren Alaina is unveiling a new musical chapter with the 2025 releases of “Those Kind of Women,” “Household” and “All MyExes (feat. Chase Matthew)”– out now. Signaling more new music on the horizon, these releases are the first tastes of new music since her six-song 2023 EP Unlocked. Alaina has earned three chart-topping hits: RIAA Platinum-certified “Road Less Traveled,” Diamond “What Ifs” with her childhood friend Kane Brown, and 3X Platinum “ONE BEER” with labelmate HARDY + Devin Dawson. With the Brown duet, Alaina became the only solo country female artist in history to receive the RIAA's Diamond certification on a single. The Georgia-born force, whom American Songwriter notes is “on a seemingly limitless upward trajectory,” has also shared the stage with Alan Jackson, Blake Shelton, Carrie Underwood, Luke Bryan, Martina McBride, and more. This year, she joins the much-anticipated Rascal Flatts Life Is A Highway Tour. The vocalist has performed on some of the highest-profile stages in the world including PBS' A Capitol Fourth, Dancing with the Stars, American Idol, CBS' Beyond The Edge, ABC's The Bachelorette, TODAY, Good Morning America, The Ellen DeGeneres Show, The Kelly Clarkson Show, The Tonight Show, Jimmy Kimmel Live!, Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade, ABC's CMA Fest specials, CMA and ACM Awards, Nickelodeon's All That, Dallas Cowboys Thanksgiving Day halftime performance, MLB's World Series national anthem performance, a performance at the White House for President Obama, and more. Ashley Kutcher Country Ashley Kutcher didn’t plan on becoming a full-time artist—she was in nursing school when a TikTok comment inspired her to write “Love You From a Distance,” a brutally honest breakup song that ended up changing everything. “I thought it was just a personal song,” Ashley reflects. “But soon, people were asking me if I read their diary.” Ashley is a country-pop singer-songwriter whose music blends heartfelt storytelling with catchy, genre-blurring melodies. Growing up on the shores of Maryland’s Chesapeake Bay, she found early inspiration on the water. Summers were spent on the boat with friends and family, listening to UB40, Bob Marley, Shania Twain, Tim McGraw, and Jimmy Buffett playing in the background. Ashley weaves the rhythms of coastal life into songs that feel both nostalgic and refreshingly current. Since that first viral moment, Ashley’s amassed over 240 million streams on Spotify alone and sold out multiple U.S. headline tours. Ashley released her debut album House on the Water in 2024, followed by her Play Responsibly EP later that year. Ashley’s next chapter returns to her roots– real storytelling, catchy melodies, and unmistakable honesty. “I’ve never been great at expressing how I feel out loud,” she says. “Writing songs is how I make sense of it all.” Ashley’s latest album, Back To My Roots &amp; These Roots Run Deep, is a return to her roots as an acoustic singer/songwriter, marrying hard hitting hooks with a more organic &amp; country influenced sound.

Candlebox Grunge Emerging from Seattle’s burgeoning mid-1990s grunge scene, Candlebox quickly found mainstream success with their deep, lyrically-driven melodies and big radio hooks. Power anthems like “Far Behind” and “You,” from their debut, self-titled album exploded onto the charts propelling the album to sell more than four million copies worldwide. Blazing full steam ahead with new U.S. and international tour dates and an upcoming release on the horizon, these iconic rockers have no plans of slowing down any time soon. And to the legions of fans who have followed their long and illustrious career, that’s music to their ears. Sponge Alternative Rock Sponge is an American alternative rock band formed in Detroit, Michigan in 1992 by vocalist Vinnie Dombroski, guitarists Mike Cross and Joey Mazzola, bassist Tim Cross, and drummer Jimmy Paluzzi. After shopping demos as the newly formed quintet, the song "Neenah Menasha" caught the ears of A&amp;R person Pablo Mathiason and the band signed with The Work Group (a Columbia Records subsidiary) in the fall of 1993. The following year, Sponge released the now iconic, Platinum-selling debut album, "Rotting Piñata," to global, critical and commercial success. After two top 10 hit singles, several tours and live television performances, including the John Stewart Show and Late Night with David Letterman, Sponge followed up their debut with 1996's "Wax Ecstatic." This sophomore effort garnered a "Song Of The Year" nod from Rolling Stone Magazine for title track "Wax Ecstatic." The album also yielded two additional top 10 hit singles and featured a guest vocal appearance from Richard Butler of the Psychedelic Furs on the song "I Am Anastasia." Since then, Sponge continues to release new music and keeps a near-constant tour schedule to the pleasure of their legion of loyal followers. Though continually led by Vinnie Dombroski, Sponge's lead singer and chief songwriter, the band has seen a few line-up changes over the course of its 30+ year career. Sponge currently features: Andy Patalan (guitar, vocals) and his brother Tim Patalan (bass). The Patalan brothers were a natural addition to the band, having previously engineered and produced the first three Sponge records at their studio, The Loft, in Saline, Michigan. The Brothers Patalan are joined by Kyle Neely (guitar) and recent addition, former Taproot drummer Dave Coughlin. Sponge's discography includes nine studio albums, four live albums, and seven charting singles; 4 of which have made Billboard Magazines top 10. The band has also been featured on several compilations and movie soundtracks over their decades long career. They are best known for their prominent 1994 hit single "Plowed" (#5 on Billboard Alt Rock) as well as the 1995 hit "Molly (16 Candles)" (#3 on Billboard Alt Rock), the 1996 hit "Wax Ecstatic” (#10 on Billboard Mainstream Rock) and 1997's hit "Have You Seen Mary"(#7 on Billboard Mainstream Rock) respectively. Sponge is busy supporting their latest release and shows no sign of stopping for the foreseeable future. Proudly representing the city of Detroit, Sponge takes their well earned place as a part of Rock-N-Roll's lengthy musical history.

Local H Alternative Rock
Local H is known for their blistering live shows and for pioneering the two-man band set-up -- frontman Scott Lucas covers both guitar and bass through an extra pick up in his guitar and drummer Ryan Harding pounds out the rest of the sound. While they have earned praise in the past for their catalog of clever concept albums, Local H have forgone a singular theme on their most recent album--Hey, Killer (out April 2015 on G&amp;P Records) -- turning out a non-stop blast of straight-up, hooky, guitar-heavy rock songs -- each one catchier than the last. The band’s discography includes seven other studio albums, a live album, and a bunch of EPs and “Straight Outta Zion,” a Blu-ray concert video (release date 8/12/16).
Local H’s widely praised 1998 concept album Pack Up the Cats earned a spot in SPIN magazine’s top 20 albums of that year. The band was named “Chicagoans of the Year” by the Chicago Tribune for their 2008 break-up album, 12 Angry Months, more than a decade after their breakthrough hit “Bound for the Floor” ruled the Modern Rock charts. In 2015, Local H celebrated the 25th anniversary of their first show and released a career-spanning coffee table book, Local H: Twenty-Five Years of Skin In The Game. Earlier this year, they re-issued their 1996 album, As Good As Dead, on vinyl for the first time.

Sunn O)))) formed in March 1998 in Los Angeles. A synthesis of diverse: drone, ur, noise, metal, minimalism/maximalism; supported by a cast of collaborators, O))) has two core members: Stephen O'Malley and Greg Anderson. For twenty years, Sunn O))) have been challenging the way we think about music. From 1999’s The Grimmrobe Demos to 2021’s Metta, Benevolence, core members Stephen O'Malley and Greg Anderson have forged connections between the worlds of Metal, Drone, Contemporary Composition, Jazz and Minimalism with startling results while remaining true to the eternal principles of volume, density and weight. While Sunn O))) history of artistic collaborations is legendary, in celebration of their 25 years founders/guitarists Stephen O’Malley &amp; Greg Anderson returned to the live aspect in its core, original raw form and performed several tours across Europe and North America as a duo. Their concerts are storied with remarkable performances at some of their favourite venues, as well as performing in new cultural spaces such as David Geffen Hall at Lincoln Center in New York, Italy’s impressive cultural complex Labrinto Della Masone, Germany’s Ruhrtriennale Festival of Arts, at The Barbican, London and Manchester International Festival being a few fine examples.

The Living Tombstone Electronic
The Living Tombstone has been dubbed “the internet’s biggest gaming band” - (NME)
“TLT” as they are known to their legion of fans, are the duo Yoav Landau and Sam Haft. Having created and released music for the last 15 years, they have amassed 9 million YouTube subscribers, and their music has achieved over 70 billion streams across platforms. The band is coming off a sold-out four-continent-spanning 2025 World Tour. Their unique position as both recording artists and influencers in the gaming and ‘geekdom’ space gives them a significant cultural footprint and history, with multiple RIAA-awarded songs, and even charting at #4 on the Dance/Electronic chart with their track “Five Nights At Freddy’s,” which was used in the end credits of the Blumhouse/NBC Universal produced film. TLT’s “It’s Been so Long” was then used in the end-credits of Five Nights At Freddy’s 2.
“Our fans connect to us because they’re obsessed with lore and story. So now we’re giving them a story that belongs entirely to them,” says band member Sam Haft, who portrays the primary vocalist character “Rust” onstage. “I don’t think of us as The Living Tombstone - I think of us as the two guys who write the story for The Living Tombstone. The act has its own world and its own characters for people to follow. It’s our job to continue to provide fans with an interesting narrative.”
Haft, originally a TV and film writer by trade, joined The Living Tombstone as a songwriter-lyricist-vocalist seven years ago, but ask him and he’ll tell you, “The magic is all Yoav. I’m hardworking and lucky - he’s special.” Founding member Yoav Landau, who portrays the band’s frontman character “zero_one” onstage, started TLT as a form of escapism, feeling isolated as a teenager. Yoav found an emotional outlet in developing music about his favorite television shows to connect with like-minded fans and communities across the world. With a rapidly growing viral music act, Yoav dropped out of college, and has been doing The Living Tombstone full time since.
“I’m super grateful for the existence of YouTube,” explains Yoav. “The internet always felt more like a home to me than anywhere else.” And the more Yoav began to create, the more his "home" of the internet embraced him. Before meeting Haft, he had already amassed hundreds of millions of streams, and one of YouTube’s earliest million-subscriber plaques.
TLT's manager, Octone Records co-founder David Boxenbaum, never thought he would manage an act, but something surprised him when he first encountered TLT. “These guys disprove the rule, that you can’t just put your music out there and expect people to find it,” he says with a grin. “These guys put it out there, and millions of people found it.” And he’s right - they have - from major movie studios like Universal Pictures, to A-Listers like Will Smith and Jack Black. TLT has carved out its own little corner of the geek culture zeitgeist.
TLT encountered Boxenbaum - or “Box” as friends call him - while developing a TV show for Japanese media giant Avex, where he was the head of their music company. It was Box who convinced the act to finally assemble the debut LP album they’d been dreaming up for years, “zero_one”, and take it to the industry, where it was embraced by fans and casual listeners alike.
TLT have in the meantime continued developing projects for TV, video games, and more. In 2021, they released indie horror game In Sound Mind, which was critically well received and rated “overwhelmingly positive” on Steam. Since re-acquiring the rights to their TV project from Avex, they have independently financed a proof-of-concept to their battle of the bands cartoon, “Rock N’ Rumble,” with plans to pitch in Q2 2026. In addition, they’ve spun off the concept into a battle of the bands strategy video game, currently in beta and seeking a publisher.
Since signing their bespoke label Ghost Pixel Records to 10K Projects in 2024, TLT worked alongside industry-best alternative producer CJ Baran (Panic! at the Disco, COIN, One OK Rock) on releasing their 2025 sophomore album, “Rust,” and now are hard at work on their follow-up, “Armstrong.” TLT continues to grow their fandom universe, signing music acts to their label, creating music with huge video games, and performing with musical peers like Bbno$.

Clutch Heavy Metal
CLUTCH shares more in common with The Grateful Dead, Rush, and the Allman Brothers than their heavy riffs and heady twists-of-phrase might suggest. Because like those bands, the supporters who adore CLUTCH are there for the experience, community, and authentic connection.
To love CLUTCH is to feel a sense of ownership, membership, and belonging.
Seneca Valley High School classmates Neil Fallon (vocals), Tim Sult (guitar), Dan Maines (bass), and Jean-Paul Gaster (drums) share an unshakeable musical and personal bond now three decades strong. Shaped by the same region which birthed Bad Brains, Minor Threat, and Rites Of Spring, CLUTCH crafts hyper-literate and libertine jams informed by hardcore fury and fuzzy, athletic, stoner rock.
A worldwide cabal of fans and critics cherish the band’s dense and diverse catalog of underground classics, released through major labels, indies, and since 2009, Clutch’s own Weathermaker imprint. Sunrise On Slaughter Beach, the band’s thirteenth studio album, is a slamming summary of everything that makes the band great and another giant leap forward into career longevity.
“There’s no question that Clutch etched themselves a name in the pantheon of great rock bands,” Lambgoat wrote in 2004. Classic Rock Magazine counted 2013’s Earth Rocker and 2015’s Psychic Warfare among the 50 Best Rock Albums of the 2010s. Rolling Stone described 2018’s Book of Bad Decisions as “bathed in the grit and liberal fuzz tone that have made their live shows legendary.”
Those live shows over the years include tours with Slayer, System Of A Down, and Marilyn Manson, and more recent co-headlining treks with Dropkick Murphys, Killswitch Engage, and Mastodon. Like Slayer or Iron Maiden, CLUTCH outlasted rock bands anchored to “hit songs” and the pressure of replicating them. The foursome from Germantown, Maryland, isn’t bound by trends. Across 13 studio albums and assorted releases since 1991, they’ve earned a reputation as one of the best around.
Slomosa Rock
Hailing from the rugged landscapes of western Norway, Slomosa has emerged as a powerhouse in modern rock, developing their signature Tundra Rock sound. Comprising Benjamin Berdous (guitar, vocals), Marie Moe (bass, vocals), Tor Erik Bye (guitar), and Jard Hole (drums), and drawing inspiration from Kyuss, Elder and Black Sabbath, the band fuses the heavy, groove-laden riffs of stoner rock with raw, melodic vocals and thunderous guitars. Since the release of their self-titled debut album in 2020, Slomosa has become synonymous with raw power and electrifying performances. They’ve conquered major festival stages at Hell Fest, Freak Valley, and Bergen Fest, earning accolades for their ability to ignite crowds with their relentless energy and infectious sound. In July 2023, the band released Cabin Fever, a thunderous single from their highly anticipated sophomore album, showcasing their knack for gritty storytelling and soaring riffs. In 2024, Slomosa plus brought their massive sound stateside, joining Alkaline Trio on a U.S. tour and further solidifying their reputation as a global force. They’re set to return in 2025 as direct support for Helmet, continuing their relentless march across international stages. Whether on record or live, Slomosa delivers a visceral, unrelenting sonic experience that lingers long after the final chord. With their sights set high and their sound louder than ever, the band is carving out a legacy as the torchbearers of modern heavy rock.
Blood Vulture Metal
This is the story of a vampire known as “The Blood Vulture.” A once-insatiable bloodthirsty abomination of a creature, he is now a recluse long locked away as he grapples with what it means to live forever in a world of impermanence. His tales of regret and grief and terror will be told from hereon through songs that meld the emotive vocal stylings of grunge’s golden era with death metal, goth rock, and doom metal.<a href="https://eventvesta.com/events/155851/t/tickets" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">View Tickets &amp; More Info</a>

Stryper Hard Rock
After four decades of producing, recording and performing high-caliber music, prolific rock foursome Stryper continues to relentlessly show itself as a renewed force with unquenchable firepower.
In addition to kicking off an ambitious 40th anniversary tour in fall of 2024, the group releases its 16th studio project, the triumphant When We Were Kings (Frontiers Music Srl), on September 13, 2024. The 11-track project fortifies Stryper’s signature sonic output by showcasing tight harmonies, riff-infused instrumentation and impassioned vocals.
Among the album’s most spiritually straightforward songs, hard-charging track “Trinity” speaks to the mysterious unity of the Father, Son and Spirit, while thundering tune “End of Days” addresses the last days prior to the apocalypse. Elsewhere, guitars loom large and a captivating chorus encompasses the title track focused on the futility of dwelling on the past.
Further song themes run the gamut from overcoming bitterness and showing mercy (“Unforgiveable”) to finding common ground in relationships (“Divided by Design”) and dealing with deceit and unfaithfulness (“Betrayed by Love”).
Stryper also has made solid progress on a much-anticipated Kickstarter-fueled documentary film. More than 1,700 backers helped the band far exceed its original funding goal, earning a “Projects We Love” tag on the popular crowdfunding platform.
When it comes to groundbreaking bands in the Christian hard-rock genre, Stryper is renowned for its trademark style of “heavenly metal,” remarkable crossover success and venerable endurance. The group ascended to prominence in the 1980s with Billboard Top 40 hits like “Calling on You,” “Honestly” and “Always There for You.”
Stryper’s career album sales exceed 10 million worldwide, including 1986’s standard-bearing multiplatinum release To Hell with the Devil. The band also made history when it notched two songs simultaneously in MTV’s Top 10 with videos “Free” and “Honestly.”
Today, over 40 years after emerging from the southern California nightclub scene, Stryper continues to record, tour and perform for devoted fans around the globe. Comprising three original members including brothers Michael Sweet (lead vocals, guitar) and Robert Sweet (drums), Oz Fox (guitar) and newest bandmate, veteran bassist Perry Richardson (formerly of Firehouse), the group finds itself continuing to create their finest, most commanding music yet.
