                                <description><![CDATA[West 22nd is an Austin-based rock band formed by friends who met at the University of Texas with a singular mission: become the next great rock band.&#160; They call their sound carousel rock, a style that spins through genre, emotion, and energy without losing its center. The term captures the tension at the heart of their music: controlled chaos that is sometimes dizzying, sometimes grounding, and always unforgettable.&#160; After a breakout EP and a debut album that have amassed over 75 million streams worldwide, West 22nd made one thing clear - they are not here to blend in. Their lyrics are autobiographical, their shows are electric, and their ambition is unmistakable. They have taken the stage at ACL, sold out numerous dates on their debut headlining tour, and built a fanbase that shouts every word back at them. West 22nd is not chasing nostalgia or trends. They are writing what comes next. And if you have ever felt a chorus hit at exactly the right moment, you already understand.&#160; For the latest updates, upcoming shows, and more, visit their official website: west-22nd.com&#160; &#160;]]></description>

                                <description><![CDATA[Cosmic Charlie was born in the musical Mecca of Athens, Georgia. From its summer 1999 inception, the band swiftly cemented its reputation as a band that puts a unique and personal twist on the Grateful Dead catalogue. Cosmic Charlie is a Dead cover band for folks that are ambivalent about Dead cover bands.&#160;Rather than mimicking the Dead exactly, Cosmic Charlie chooses to tap into the Dead&#8217;s energy and style as a foundation on which to build. The result is healthy balance of creativity and tradition, where both the band and its audience are taken to that familiar edge with the sense that, music is actually being MADE here tonight. Moving and shaking even the most skeptical of Deadheads, Cosmic Charlie storms into a town and plays with an energy that eludes other bands, an energy that sometimes eluded the Dead themselves. Those precious moments during Dead jams when the synchronicity is there and all is right with the world -&#160; these are the moments that Cosmic Charlie relishes and feverishly welcomes with open arms. Clearly, Cosmic Charlie&#8217;s audiences are also eager to partake in these moments, and together with the band, they have indulged in many memorable evenings. Most nights, Cosmic Charlie walks onstage without a setlist, not even knowing what the first song will be. Any Dead tune can rear its head at any moment, and fan requests are always welcome. &#8220;INSPIRATION, MOVE ME BRIGHTLY" is Cosmic Charlie&#8217;s mantra, allowing the music to truly play the band.]]></description>

Fridmann also produced her last album Love is An Art (2020). &#8220;The album will of course mean different things to different people and that is what excites me. I had to embrace my own contradictions in order to see what the world of the album was going to feel and sound like,&#8221; says Carlton. &#8220;I love the metaphor of wearing a veil. There are so many layers to all of us. When I look back on the four year process, I see that I was gradually becoming fascinated with stoicism.&#8221;&#160; Through her songs, Vanessa invites listeners to explore the Veils in their own lives. Which Veil are you lifting? Which Veil are you putting on? &#8220;Our veils tell a story, when we choose to take one off or when we put one on&#8230;it is such a personal act,&#8221; says Carlton.&#160; Vanessa recently unveiled the first track &#8220;Animal&#8221; off the upcoming album that lays the foundation in her pursuit for stoicism. Vanessa shared that the song is about, &#8220;The idea of knowing we cannot control external forces; she is being hunted and she accepts the reality of what is happening. The acceptance allows her to truly see the animal. Does she even identify with this creature? Every human has an animal within them. Are you hunting? Are you being hunted? Who is the animal?&#8221; Carlton has constantly challenged both herself and the expectations that surround her throughout her lengthy, accomplished career. &#160;]]></description>

                                <description><![CDATA[Nirvani: A Nirvana Tribute Experience&#160; Nirvani is the most authentic and electrifying tribute band to the legendary grunge pioneers, Nirvana. Known for their accurate recreation of the raw, high-energy performances that made Kurt Cobain and company a cultural phenomenon, Nirvani has been selling out venues across the country. From the iconic, distorted guitar riffs to the anguished screams and rebellious spirit, Nirvani brings the music of Nirvana to life in a way that feels as powerful and visceral as it did in the 90s. Nirvani&#8217;s live shows are a high-octane journey through all the hits and deep cuts that defined Nirvana&#8217;s catalog. With a stage presence that channels the chaotic energy of the original band, they deliver an unforgettable experience, playing fan favorites like &#8220;Smells Like Teen Spirit,&#8221; &#8220;Come As You Are,&#8221; and &#8220;Heart-Shaped Box,&#8221; alongside deeper tracks that true Nirvana fans will love. Their wild stage presence, combined with instrument-smashing finales, ensures no two shows are ever the same. Nirvani: A Nirvana Tribute Experience you won&#8217;t forget.]]></description>
