Lilly Hiatt will release Forever on January 31, 2025 via New West Records. The 9-song set is Hiatt’s first album in four years and was produced by her husband, Coley Hinson, and mixed by Paul Q. Kolderie (Radiohead, Pixies, Hole). Forever is a raw, unvarnished work of love and trust that walks the line between alt-rock muscle and singer-songwriter sensitivity.

Acclaimed singer, songwriter and musician Wyatt Flores will continue to perform through this spring with his “Welcome Back to the Plains Tour,” which includes stops at St. Petersburg’s Jannus Live, Memphis’ Graceland Soundstage, New Orleans’ The Fillmore, Charlottesville’s Ting Pavilion and St. Louis’ Ballpark Village among others. See below for complete tour itinerary.

Denver jam lovers, mark your calendars for February 14–15, 2025, because Panic Stricken is bringing two nights of Widespread Panic magic to Cervantes’ Masterpiece Ballroom.

Picture the dystopian alternate 1985 from Back to the Future Part II: a neon-soaked nightmare where Biff Tannen lords over a casino empire, bullies everyone in sight, and manages to build a towering shrine to his own ego in the middle of Hill Valley. Now pause the VHS (or, you know, the streaming video because it’s 2025), squint a little, and ask yourself: “Wait, am I watching a Saturday morning cartoon version of Donald Trump?”
