SUMMARY:Sister Hazel
DESCRIPTION:Originating from Gainesville\, FL\, Sister Hazel is comprised of five gifted\, seasoned musicians whose well-spring of natural talent has been called “one of the Top 100 Most Influential Independent Performers of the last 15 years” by Performing Songwriter Magazine. Song “All for You\,” topped the adult alternative charts during the summer of 1997 and the success propelled their album to platinum status. .  Since then\, the band has become firmly established not only in rock and alternative music\, but now in country with four back-to-back Billboard Top Country Albums Chart entries along with making their debut on the most revered stage in country music\, the Grand Ole Opry. They have most recently co-produced a cleverly themed EP compilation series entitled “Elements\,” that includes a bonus seventh track that continued throughout the series. \nLiving up to their fan-centered reputation\, the band was a pioneer in the themed cruise industry by co-founding “The Rock Boat” and annually hosts events like the “Hazelnut Hang\,” and “Camp Hazelnut” that focuses on creating unique experiences and interacting with the fans. Sister Hazel has been equally attentive to connecting with their audience through social media having amassed over a million social followers. In addition to the events and touring\, the band also gives back with “Lyrics For Life.” Founded by singer Ken Block\, the charity unites musicians and celebrities for concerts and auctions to benefit cancer research and patient-care charities.

SUMMARY:Everclear
DESCRIPTION:Everclear\, one of the leading alternative rock bands to emerge from the ‘90s\, celebrated their 30th Anniversary in recent years\, and founder\, vocalist and guitarist Art Alexakis has made it clear that he has no plans to slow down. Since forming in 1992\, Everclear has enjoyed a lengthy career by any measure\, spanning 11 studio releases\, including four that have been certified Gold or Platinum\, selling over 6 million records\, and achieving 12 Top 40 Hit Singles on Mainstream Rock\, Alternative\, and Adult Top 40 radio\, including “Santa Monica\,” “Father of Mine\,” “I Will Buy You A New Life\,” “Wonderful” and “Everything To Everyone\,” as well as numerous videos\, thousands of shows\, and various other accolades\, including a 1998 Grammy nomination. \nAfter the demise of his band Colorfinger in 1992\, Alexakis was struggling to make it in Portland\, where he’d moved from San Francisco. That extremely difficult personal and creative period was the crucible that forged Alexakis into the fiery songwriter heard on the early Everclear demos\, the Nervous & Weird EP (1993)\, and ultimately the World of Noise LP\, both released on the Portland independent label Tim/Kerr Records. The original 1993 release of World of Noise\, paired with the band’s significant efforts to break into college radio and the buzz they’d created within the Portland music scene\, attracted the attention of major labels\, including Capitol Records\, which signed the group soon after. Beginning with their major-label debut\, 1995’s platinum-selling album Sparkle and Fade\, and its massive chart-topping hit “Santa Monica\,” Everclear was soon a household name and catapulted into the masses\, thus allowing their impressive three-decade career to prosper and endure. \nIn 2019\, while being treated for an injury caused by a minor car accident\, Alexakis was diagnosed with multiple sclerosis (MS) and learned that he had likely been living with the disease for nearly twenty years. Since being diagnosed\, Art has donated one dollar from every ticket purchased for his performances to charities such as Sweet Relief Musicians Fund and National MS Society. \nIn 2022\, Everclear reissued World Of Noise as a special 30th Anniversary remastered\, deluxe edition\, making the album available for the first time on digital streaming platforms with 6 bonus songs in addition to its original 12 tracks. Adding to the celebrations that year\, Everclear released a commemorative anniversary video\, “Everclear – 30 Years Gone: A Retrospective\,” hosted by former MTV VJ\, current radio host and longtime friend Matt Pinfield\, and embarked on a lengthy North American Tour. One special stop on the tour\, back in Alexakis’ hometown of Los Angeles\, was recorded and filmed for a new live album. Live at The Whisky a Go Go\, out now via Sunset Blvd. Records\, features all the hits and hidden treasures from throughout Everclear’s extraordinary catalog as well as two new original bonus studio tracks. \nIn addition to his thousands of Everclear performances over the band’s lengthy career\, Alexakis created and runs the annual Summerland Tour\, which features a package of popular ‘90s alt rock bands\, and he released his first solo album\, Sun Songs\, in 2019. More than three decades later\, Everclear’s enduring legacy and ongoing appeal as a live band continues.

SUMMARY:Whey Jennings
DESCRIPTION:Country singer-songwriter Whey Jennings was born into one of country music’s most iconic family names\, first emerging in 2012 as another naturally gifted singer from the Jennings tribe. With large boots to fill\, the young Nashville recording artist and singer-songwriter for Dirt Rock Empire\, with a booming baritone voice as big as Texas\, finds himself with a few expectations to live up to. Seeking to establish his own musical legacy as one of the few remaining torch-bearing country traditionalists out there\, Whey can instantly take his fans back to a time and sound his Grandfather Waylon and Grandmother Jessi gave birth to in the 70’s\, even with his own songs. \nWith three studio recorded EP releases under his belt\, 2020’s Gypsy Soul\, 2022’s If It Wasn’t for The Sinnin’\, and 2023’s Just Before The Dawn\, Jennings is now preparing for his magnum opus of songs\, his first full length album\, the highly anticipated Jekyll & Hyde\, due out August 23\, 2024. Many of Whey’s songs reveal stories of how he has come to terms with a checkered past of too much partying\, led by a drug-fueled lifestyle\, but knowing he needed to make a change. Musical stories about struggles\, addiction\, finding sobriety\, and redemption through faith in God\, family and his friends. Interjecting his own modern-day approach to songwriting and storytelling\, while remaining a little rough around the edges\, Whey’s unpolished grit and honest demeanor defines his sound\, with musical roots that run as deep as his Jennings family name would imply. \n“Out of 43 years on this earth I lived 38 of them in the darkness\,” Whey recalled. “I was pretty well a functioning drug addict and an alcoholic. I found the light four years ago by the grace of God. I have a beautiful wife who has also stood by my side\, and six beautiful children who continue to love me. A wonderful Manager who I call my Momager\, Mrs. Tammy Carolus. I’ve decided to dedicate this LP and my life to them.”

SUMMARY:Fuel
DESCRIPTION:Destiny unfolds unexpectedly. However\, it pushes us exactly where we’re supposed to be at just the right time. In this respect\, you could say the 2021 rebirth of GRAMMY® Award-nominated multi platinum rock band Fuel was simply meant to be. After rebuilding their brotherhood\, founder\, guitarist\, and songwriter Carl Bell and longtime drummer Kevin Miller didn’t just celebrate their history together. They rushed into the future joined by new blood—Aaron Scott [lead vocals\, guitar]\, Mark Klotz [guitar\, vocals]\, and Tommy Nat [bass\, vocals]—and armed with their first album together in 18 years\, Ånomåly. \nMuch like the title suggests\, it serves as the aberration rock music needs. \n“We’re excited to start a new chapter\,” smiles Carl. “We wanted to honor those fans who have been there since day one\, but progress forward and ask ourselves\, ‘What would Fuel sound like in 2021?’ We found a mix of the past and the present\, and we looked into the future. By definition\, an Ånomåly is something peculiar\, different\, and\, most of all\, unexpected. A year ago\, I had no idea this would happen. Now\, I’m in a band with Kevin again and a bunch of hungry guys. It’s an interesting time.” \nSo\, how did it happen? \nWell\, Carl’s cell phone rang out of the blue one day. Despite an almost-religious aversion to answering unknown numbers\, he picked up. It was Kevin. Over a few years\,  one phone call led to another before they finally agreed to meet in person in 2018. The two longtime friends understood one another like never before. \n“We were just patient with each other\,” Carl observes. “From the first conversation\, I recognized the same feeling in Kevin’s voice. Fuel was huge for us. It was a great moment in our lives\, and Kevin was as grateful for the opportunities that Fuel gave us as I was. We bonded on that fact. I would’ve taken a bullet for him—I still would. Kevin had been jamming with Aaron\, Mark\, and Tommy\, and he was like\, ‘I promise you. You’re going to have a great time with them’. I’m proud to say these dudes were as advertised\,” Carl grins. \n“I vividly remember placing that first phone call to Carl\,” recalls Kevin. “I was sitting in my kitchen and thinking about all of the memories I had with Fuel. I was so proud of everything we accomplished. I thought of the early days in an RV. We spent hours playing video games and laughing so hard we had tears in our eyes. Shortly after\, I remembered some situations and realized I didn’t do a great job handling them. I felt compelled to call Carl and tell him how sorry I was. He was very surprised it was me. I said my peace and apologized. He offered the olive branch\, which I graciously accepted. We would periodically call each other and check in until we met up in person\, laughed\, cried\, and made amends. The rest is history. We picked up better than ever.” \nStarting in 2020\, and into 2021\, the album was recorded out of Carl’s personal studio\, as well as vocals being recorded at Soundmine Recording Studio and King Studios in Pennsylvania. Carl’s songwriting had sharpened in the past decade\, while Kevin\, Mark\, Tommy\, and John reignited Fuel. It also marked the first time Carl took full reins as the album was written\, produced and even mixed by Carl. \n“It’s crazy because Mark\, Tommy\, and Aaron were all fans\,” Carl says. “That was fun to watch from our perspective. Most importantly\, they were all up to the task. It’s probably the best band I’ve been in. Aaron is an amazing singer with a great range and delivers this incredible finesse\, as well as being an amazing guitar player. Kevin is the guy you always want by your side. I wouldn’t be doing this without him.” \n“Kevin came to me with a life-changing opportunity\,” says Aaron. “I had to step up to the plate\, and I knew it was my opportunity. Without telling me\, Kevin had me record a demo of a classic Fuel track ‘for a friend’. I could only bite my lips knowing what it could potentially be. On July 4\, 2020\, we took the steps forward in reigniting Fuel. We got the whole band together\, jammed\, and smiled at each other. I was content to see Carl and Kevin so happy to be playing these songs together.” \nThey introduce this era with the single “Hard.” A bludgeoning riff dissolves into fragmented delay before the guitars seesaw back-and-forth. It culminates with a rapid-fire hook\, “Staring at a photograph of everything we used to have of memories of long ago…hard to shake them now.” \n“I’m always putting down riffs in the middle of the night as voice messages\,” Carl goes on. “It started like that. Lyrically\, it’s an experience of wondering what could’ve been in a relationship. You have to live with your actions\, and those actions have consequences.” \n“I was dialing in a mix of all of my biggest influences and blending them with a modern touch\,” Aaron says. “I wanted to deliver the darker lyrics in a powerful\, yet fun format. It ties into my personal experiences in life\, which helped the song fall into a more personal level. This track will hopefully introduce fans to a new side of Fuel that still resonates with the old side as well.” \n“Keep It Away” tosses and turns under a chantable refrain. Elsewhere\, “Landslide” hinges on a head-nodding beat and the echo of post-punk guitars before a fret-burning and fiery solo. \n“I wanted to do something a little different for us\,” Carl states. “It’s about the uplifting side of a relationship. The lyric ‘caught in a landslide’ is about being overwhelmed by your feelings for someone. Musically\, the entire record is like an unintentional homage to so many great bands and references so many influences: Def Leppard\, The Cure\, Duran Duran\, Zeppelin\, the Fixx\, Journey\, and even KC and the Sunshine Band\,” he laughs. \nThen\, there’s “Give.” The ballad showcases yet another dimension of the quintet as it inches towards a skyscraping refrain from Aaron. “Lyrically\, ‘Give’ is like a personal letter to myself\,” Carl says. \n“For ‘Don’t Say I’\, everyone has been in a relationship that isn’t working out\,” he elaborates. “The other person says you never attempted to make it work when you’re like\, ‘No\, I gave everything for the situation. It just isn’t working. Don’t say I didn’t try’. That’s ‘Don’t Say I     .” \nJust before the turn-of-the-century\, Fuel quietly emerged with a melodic brand of hard rock rooted in eloquent songwriting and heavy guitars. 1998’s Sunburn not only went platinum\, but it also yielded enduring anthems such as “Shimmer” and “Bittersweet.” Its 2001 follow-up\, Something Like Human\, earned a double-platinum certification and elevated them to arenas. The lead single “Hemorrhage (In My Hands)” would reach #1 for 13 weeks and would even become the No. 6 Alternative Rock song of the past 25 years according to Billboard‘s Alternative Chart 25th Anniversary: Top 100 Songs\, making it “one of the Top Ten most-listened to alternative rock songs for the past 30 years.” Their music appeared everywhere from Prison Break\, Daredevil\, and Scream 3 to WWE Pay-Per-View events. 2003’s Natural Selection bowed in the Top 15 of the Billboard Top 200 and garnered a GRAMMY® Award nomination in the category of “Best Engineered Album. Non-Classical.”  \nTheir catalog continued to resound throughout popular culture as well. Daughtry famously covered “Hemorrhage” on American Idol\, while modern platinum rock juggernaut Red also released their own rendition of it and Hands Like Houses notably performed “Shimmer” on Triple J in Australia. \nAfter 11 years away\, Carl and Kevin brought Fuel back to life in 2021. In the end\, their return may have been unexpected\, but it couldn’t be more welcome. \n“Fuel meant the world to me\, and it still does to this day\,” agrees Kevin. “I’m incredibly proud of what we accomplished. I’m excited beyond belief to do it with Carl\, Aaron\, Mark\, and Tommy. If you are a hardcore fan\, there will always be a special place in your heart for what was. I’m very confident that older fans and newer fans will embrace the new lineup and music. Carl did a fantastic job of reaching back to Fuel’s roots with a little flare of today. The band delivered.” \n“This band has always been everything to me\,” Carl says. “I’m super stoked to be back. This record was a lot of work\, but it was fun and rewarding. I hope people think\, ‘That’s not just a solid Fuel record\, it’s a solid record in general’.”

SUMMARY:Dirty Honey
DESCRIPTION:Some musicians take a while to build an audience and connect with fans. For the Los Angeles-based quartet Dirty Honey\, success came right out of the gate… In October 2019\, Dirty Honey made history as the only unsigned artist in Billboard’s near four-decades to hit #1 on the magazine’s Mainstream and Hard Rock Charts with its debut single\, “When I’m Gone.” Since that weighty debut\, Dirty Honey has opened for The Who\, Guns NʼRoses\, Slash with Alter Bridge\, and The Black Crowes\, where the band received glowing press reviews and a standing ovation at the majority of the tour’s concerts—unprecedented for a support act. \nDirty Honey’s self-titled album debuted at #2 on the Current Hard Rock Chart\, Rolling Stone featured them as “An Artist You Need To Know\,” they were tagged as the “do-not-miss-band” at more than a dozen major North American summer festivals\, and played sold-out shows on their first two North American tours. In May\, 2022 the band released its international EP/LP debut\, and headed to the UK and Europe for their first tour there\, playing headline shows\, festival slots and support dates with Guns NʼRoses\, KISS and Rival Sons. The band (Marc LaBelle/vocals\, John Notto/guitar\, Justin Smolian/bass\, and Jaydon Beam/drums)\, will head to Australia in April 2023 to record their sophomore album\, set for a fall release\, with a World Tour kicking off in September. Dirty Honey continues to take the world by storm.
