{"slides":[{"media_title":"Indecision ","media_tagline":"with Hash the Band","event_body":"In 1984, well before the explosion of extended instrumental concerts, an improvisational band playing original music named Indecision emerged out of Charlottesville, Virginia. Drawing from a wide variety of influences, including The Allman Brothers, Grateful Dead, The Band, Steely Dan, and Little Feat, as well as the more complex rhythmic and harmonic structure of many jazz artists, Indecision forged a unique sound in the relatively new movement of improvisational music known today as the jam band scene.\n \n\n\nHash is the latest Alt Rock\/Jam band to come out of Charlottesville Virginia, With members Hasler Yancey (lead vocals\/lead guitar), Jackson Rosson (Bass \/ vocals), Tommy Fruscello (drums \/vocals), Aaron Rivera (Guitar), and Asher Friedman (keyboard \/ vocals), Hash is always writing new original music while refining what compositions they have. In addition to their original content they always have a wide variety of covers that they perform with their own spin making them a creative and almost unorthodox powerhouse of repertoire Established in December of 2023, Hash started when Hasler and Asher called in some of their High school buddies(Tommy and Jackson) to put on a last-minute show. Since then, Hash has kept the ball rolling, spending this past year getting their name in the scene while accomplishing some big shows and publishing their first single in August 2024 followed by an EP in December later that year. With an explosive year behind them, Hash is ready to hit the road with these feats under their belt. Their Social media presence includes their Instagram where you can find the latest Hash news and gigs, Tik Tok where you can find some entertaining and interactive videos with the band, and Spotify where they have 6 songs in their discography and soon to-be more as Hash keeps riding the wave of this writing and performance storm.\n","media_file_type":"img","media_file_placeholder":null,"media_file_name":"https:\/\/www.jeffersontheater.com\/assets\/img\/0523-Indecision-web-banner-4286a0ecdb.jpg","media_link":"https:\/\/www.jeffersontheater.com\/events\/detail\/indecision-5","ticket_link":"Buy Tickets<\/a>","event_date":"May<\/span> 23<\/span>, 2026<\/span>","promos":"home featured just-announced","event_time":"8:00pm","media_thumb":"https:\/\/www.jeffersontheater.com\/assets\/img\/0523-Indecision-thumbnail-5e3226bd57.jpg","category":{"name":"Other","id":"0"}},{"media_title":"Can\u2019t Feel My Face (2010\u2019s Dance Party) (18+)","media_tagline":"","event_body":"Can't Feel My Face, the biggest 2010s dance party in the country! \n\nCan’t Feel My Face features fire DJs and 2010s visuals that will transport you back to the decade defined by memes and selfies… a time only 4 to 14 years gone but feels like 40 years ago.\n\nAt Can't Feel My Face you can expect to dance all night to the biggest bangers from artists like The Weeknd (duh), Beyoncé, Kesha, Taylor Swift, Justin Bieber, Ariana Grande, Katy Perry, Cardi B, Harry Styles, Bruno Mars, Lady Gaga, Dua Lipa, Kendrick Lamar, Rihanna, Avicii, Nicki Minaj, Calvin Harris, and more. \n\n** Wear your best 2010s ‘fit!

The album was recorded largely live in the room and co-produced by the band and John Mark Nelson, a songwriter who has also co-written and produced songs for Suki Waterhouse and Shaboozey, as well as engineered tracks for the likes of Taylor Swift and Mitski. “This song was about what we feel every day in this band,” Greene says. “Being exhausted but finding beauty together.”\n\n \n\nTrousdale’s debut album, 2023’s Out of My Mind, earned raves from the likes of the Boston Globe, Consequence, and Atwood Magazine for its powerful songwriting, immaculate harmonies, and ability to bridge gaps between country and indie pop. On Growing Pains, the three songwriters evolved their style, writing rough ideas on their own, then refining and finishing them in the room together. “We’re all adding to each other’s ideas, drawing from personal experiences and then expanding them into something more people can connect with,” D’Andrea explains. To that end, second single “Secondhand Smoke” lives deeply in the story of an abusive relationship, but elevates into something far more haunting. There’s an icy chill to the acoustic guitar, the pain ringing softly into the night as the trio take on the perspective of a woman struggling to find hope.\n\n \n\nWhile working with co-writers like Mags Duval and Adam expanded the band’s purview, the trio credit John Mark Nelson as a particularly powerful guide. “He’s always thinking about the big picture and staying out of the weeds,” Jones laughs. “We used to live in the weeds. But John Mark helped us focus on the album as a whole.” \n\n \n\nThat lesson shows both in the totality of Growing Pains and in the summery charm of a track like “Over and Over”. Nelson shared a rough sketch of the track, and Trousdale eagerly carved out their own version: a tale of running into an ex and trying to decipher how you feel about everyone moving on. D’Andrea points to the way the track leaps between tight-knit harmonies and lead vocal flourishes as emblematic of the new heights Trousdale has reached. “Every time we record and we're in the vocal booth, we're all getting better and figuring out what we need,” she says.\n\n \n\nAs good as Trousdale sounds when they lean into their gold-hued pop, the group work their country flair into the material more masterfully than ever before. There are shades of Leann Rimes to the groovy, swaying “Lonely Night”, while the heartbeat-ballad “Want Me Back” took inspiration from Lady A and finds the trio hoping that an ex might be regretting the breakup. \n\n \n\nAcross 12 remarkable tracks, Growing Pains stares down all the weight of its title, a trio of strong, independent women facing the threats of loneliness, broken hearts, loss, and more, and converting it into transformative, uplifting music. And as the album closes on the dazzling “Last Bloom”, Trousdale basks in the light at the end of every tunnel. “What it was will grow into something new,” they sing, radiating at the end of the journey. “It's a reminder that even in the coldest moments, renewal is always possible,” D’Andrea explains.\n\n\nverygently is the collective spark of three established Nashville singer-songwriters—Drew Erwin, Joey Hendricks, and Tristan Bushman—who joined forces in early 2024 and quickly made noise with their debut EP DUMBA$$ MODE. Blending razor-sharp wit with open-hearted vulnerability, the trio crafts harmony-driven indie rock that turns heartache into something anthemic. After touring alongside Ruston Kelly, Augustana, The Band Camino, and The Fray, they built a reputation for magnetic, cathartic live shows fueled by airtight harmonies and undeniable chemistry. \n\n \n\nIn 2025, they returned with their sophomore EP FAME!, produced by Noah Gundersen and recorded to analog tape at the legendary FAME Studios in Muscle Shoals, Alabama. It’s a confident evolution that pairs Bushman’s moody storytelling, Erwin’s soaring melodies, and Hendricks’ ’70s-infused songwriting into a sound that feels both fresh and timeless, solidifying verygently as a band whose collaborative artistry is greater than the sum of its parts.\n\n \n\nverygently recently closed out their run with Ruston Kelly, and will return to the road supporting Kameron Marlowe this spring. Their newest single, “HOW IT’S ALWAYS BEEN” featuring Kelly, arrived February 27 and marked the first release from their upcoming debut album, due later this year.\n","media_file_type":"img","media_file_placeholder":null,"media_file_name":"https:\/\/www.jeffersontheater.com\/assets\/img\/0531-Trousdale-web-banner-e5d6041610.png","media_link":"https:\/\/www.jeffersontheater.com\/events\/detail\/trousdale-growing-pains-deluxe-tour","ticket_link":"Buy Tickets<\/a>","event_date":"May<\/span> 31<\/span>, 2026<\/span>","promos":"home featured just-announced","event_time":"8:00pm","media_thumb":"https:\/\/www.jeffersontheater.com\/assets\/img\/0531-Trousdale-thumbnail-f7d06d90f6.png","category":{"name":"Other","id":"0"}},{"media_title":"Pablo Cruise\u00a0","media_tagline":"","event_body":"This is a reserved seated show.\n \n\nIn 1975 Pablo Cruise released its first A&M album simply entitled Pablo Cruise. The album cover was shot in the tropical gardens of San Francisco’s Golden Gate Park and it featured a huge gorilla standing front and center. The band, David Jenkins (guitars, vocals), Cory Lerios(keyboards, vocals), Bud Cockerel (bass, vocals) and Steve Price (drums, percussion) were no where in sight. At that point there was a bit of a mystique surrounding Pablo Cruise and when asked what Pablo Cruise meant, the well-rehearsed answer went something like this: “Pablo”, represents an honest, real, down to earth individual, and “Cruise” depicts his fun loving, easy going attitude towards life: In essence that’s what Pablo Cruise music is all about. Honest, real down to earth vocals, accompanied by fun yet elegant, infectious grooves. To hear Pablo Cruise on record is one thing, but to experience the band live is an exhilarating event!\n\nFrom 1975 to 1985 the band toured the United States, Canada and Japan extensively, welcoming fans to “Climb Aboard The Good Ship Pablo Cruise.” Reaching the top 10 with mega hits like “Whatcha Gonna Do When She Says Goodbye?” and “Love Will Find A Way,”and several other top 20’s, the band went on to sell several million albums and singles collectively and established themselves as well respected writers and performers within the industry. They appeared on numerous TV shows, including Dick Clark’s American Bandstand, The Merv Griffin Show, The Dinah Shore Hour and in 1979 they broke Elvis Presley’s attendance record at the Sahara Tahoe in South Lake Tahoe, Nevada, becoming the first rock band to play a casino showroom. They also became the first rock band to grace the stage at the Grand Ole Opry, but by 1985 after completing several national tours and releasing 7 studio albums in all, the band decided to take a hiatus……one that lasted nearly 20 years.\n\nFast forward 20 years…. In 2005 a reunited Pablo Cruise picked up where they left off and today the band performs all over the U.S. and Canada and they’re enjoying it more than ever… Since getting back together, they have released two live CD’s and a DVD all through Sony Music documenting their exceptional live shows.  During the Pandemic the boys wrote and produced a new single (through Sony) entitled “Breathe” which received considerable critical reviews!  One of the great things about playing shows after all these years, is that primary songwriters David Jenkins and Cory Lerios are still on board!  “Cory says, going out and playing shows these days, gives us the opportunity to not only pay tribute to our timeless repertoire, it also gives us a chance to see old friends and fans from back in the day, as well as gaining a whole new audience!”  Today Pablo Cruise is bringing more energy and excitement to the stage than ever before and with the addition of Larry Antonino (bass, vocals), Robbie Wyckoff (vocals, percussion) and Sergio Gonzalez (drums, percussion) the band has never sounded better!   If you get an opportunity to see Pablo Cruise live, don’t pass it up……IT’S GOOD TO BE LIVE!   \n","media_file_type":"img","media_file_placeholder":null,"media_file_name":"https:\/\/www.jeffersontheater.com\/assets\/img\/060126-Pablo-Cruise-web-banner-33626510b3.jpg","media_link":"https:\/\/www.jeffersontheater.com\/events\/detail\/pablo-cruise","ticket_link":"Buy Tickets<\/a>","event_date":"Jun<\/span> 1<\/span>, 2026<\/span>","promos":"home featured just-announced","event_time":"8:00pm","media_thumb":"https:\/\/www.jeffersontheater.com\/assets\/img\/060126-Pablo-Cruise-thumbnail-5da719b6d3.jpg","category":{"name":"Other","id":"0"}},{"media_title":"Spacey Jane - If That Makes Sense Tour","media_tagline":"with Toledo","event_body":"Since forming in Perth in 2016, Spacey Jane have become one of Australia’s most successful indie acts, building a global audience through relentless touring and emotionally resonant songwriting. The band, fronted by Caleb Harper alongside drummer Kieran Lama, guitarist Ashton Hardman-Le Cornu, and bassist Peppa Lane, broke through with their 2020 debut Sunlight, whose single “Booster Seat” earned Song of the Year at the ARIA Awards. Their follow-up, Here comes Everybody (2022), debuted at No. 1 in Australia and made them Triple J’s most played artist that year. In 2025 they released their third studio album, If That Makes Sense - their most ambitious record yet, produced by Mike Crossey (Arctic Monkeys, Wolf Alice, The 1975) - and launched a widely successful global tour across Australia, New Zealand, North America, Europe, and the UK.

An international touring schedule. A record label with 25 artists and more than 100 releases, all operating out of his living room. A recording studio built into his four-car garage. Evan Honer spent 2024 in a blur of momentum, expanding his life in all directions, playing nearly 100 shows in support of his second album, Fighting For, while writing new songs for its follow-up.\n\n \n\nOnly two years earlier, his cover of Tyler Childers' "Jersey Giant" had become a viral juggernaut, earning more than 200 million streams and launching his music career. He was busy then, too, balancing his college classes with nighttime gigs as a solo act and daily practices with the school's Division 1 swimming team. Things only intensified as school came to a close. Honer released the debut album West On I-10 on graduation day and quickly remade himself into a road warrior, balancing the challenges of early adulthood with an unbending commitment to music.\n\n \n\nThen, one day, he learned to look around him and take stock of the present. Everything I Wanted finds Honer planting new roots in Nashville, his adopted hometown after a multi-year stint in Southern California. Recorded over 18 days in a garage studio that he built himself, it's a homemade record with big-studio sparkle, its 13 songs emphasizing the indie and alternative-pop influences that have always lingered on the outskirts of his sound. Here, they're moved to the forefront, pushing Honer beyond his roots as an acoustic Americana act and into something more eclectic and electrifying. There are string arrangements courtesy of a talented neighbor, Kate Stephenson. There are horn arrangements, pedal steel swells, and contributions from his roommates, too. At the center of that sound is Evan Honer himself: an acclaimed songwriter, storyteller, and bleeding-heart vocalist who, after years on the move, has learned to slow down a bit and appreciate the moment.\n\n \n\n"My life completely changed this past year," he says. "I'm learning to be happy with where I'm at. I'm grateful that I get to stand onstage and sing songs I wrote in my bedroom, and people know the words and sing them back to me. How can you be upset about that?"\n\n \n\nIt's true; there's a lot to be grateful for. 500 million streams, for starters. An RIAA gold certification for his "Jersey Giant" cover. Sold-out shows alongside headliners like Wyatt Flores. The ongoing success of his own label, Cloverdale Records. With Everything I Wanted, though, Honer turns his gaze inward, writing autobiographical songs about romance, resilience, roots, and his relationship with his audience.\n\n \n\n"When the going gets tough, I'll stick through the season," he promises during "Maybe For Once." On the surface, it's a love song to a woman he met on the road, her memory lingering in the rear-review mirror every time his van pulls away. For someone who's used to living life at 80 miles per hour, though, the song is something more: a self-made promise to focus not only upon the destination, but on the journey itself. "These songs are about me not getting in my own way," he clarifies. "I've stopped looking for reasons not to commit. I'm pushing myself to just let things happen." The rest of the record is similarly personal. On the cinematic piano ballad "It's a Home," Honer whisks himself back to childhood to unpack some traumatic family baggage. On "Place I Hate," he sings about a career filled with astral highs and bottomed-out lows. With the short-and-sweet "Waiting Room," he delivers a genuine love song in less than two minutes, showcasing just how concise his craft has become over the past three years. And with "Curtain," he sings directly to the fans who've supported him over the years, singing, "You guys bother showing up to hear me scream about my feelings… I don't know if you can tell, but I'm the one who really needs it."\n\n \n\nHoner's previous album, Fighting For, was recorded during his first national tour, slowly pieced together in the studio spaces, living rooms, and AirBNBs he encountered while driving from show to show. Everything I Wanted, on the other hand, was recorded at home with producers Garrett Hall, Shane Travis and a small handful of guests. From the start, Honer embraced those differences. "The last thing I ever want to do is make something I've already made," he says, naming artists like Andy Shauf, Medium Build, and Pinegrove as the album's touchstones. He sought outside opinions, too, by embracing Nashville's co-writing culture. "Writing with other people was exciting," he adds, "because some of these songs wound up going to places I wouldn't normally go."\n\n \n\nLongtime fans will notice those changes and more. There's the Beatles-inspired bridge of "Finally Commit." The noisy, full-band freakout that brings the final track, "Wonder," to a close. The drums kickstart "Lose a Friend," one of Honer's only tracks to begin with percussion. Now three albums into his career, Evan Honer has more than a signature sound — he has the guts to expand and evolve that sound, as well. There will be more shows to play… more horizons to chase down in a 15-passenger van… but as long as Everything I Wanted is playing, you can find Evan Honer at home, coaxing new sounds out of the garage, thankful for the moment even as it passes by.\n","media_file_type":"img","media_file_placeholder":null,"media_file_name":"https:\/\/www.jeffersontheater.com\/assets\/img\/EH660-860614dd55.jpg","media_link":"https:\/\/www.jeffersontheater.com\/events\/detail\/evan-honer-1","ticket_link":"Buy Tickets<\/a>","event_date":"Jun<\/span> 16<\/span>, 2026<\/span>","promos":"home featured just-announced","event_time":"8:00pm","media_thumb":"https:\/\/www.jeffersontheater.com\/assets\/img\/EH180-a7a7f9f2bb.jpg","category":{"name":"Other","id":"0"}},{"media_title":"Kolby Cooper","media_tagline":"w\/ Jacob Paul Allen | presented by C-Ville Country 92.7","event_body":"Living in his small hometown of Bradford, Texas, Kolby Cooper started selling out shows and clocking millions of streams using only his songs as muscle, earning streaming numbers competitive with household names. Now, at only 25 years old, having amassed over 420 million on-demand streams, Cooper released his label debut album Boy From Anderson County To The Moon via BBR Music Group\/BMG Nashville in partnership with Combustion Music.

As a teenager from East Tennessee, his devotion to music led him to hit the road, where he lived in his car and played for anyone who would listen. That took him all the way to a major record deal when he was only nineteen. When that ended, he refused to give up and became an indie artist, relying solely on the music and his undeniable gift for crafting relatable songs that led to a devoted fan base he calls the Bonnevilles. He appreciates them so much that he includes them in his artist name. “They’re the reason I’m able to make music,” he says.\n\n \n\n2024 saw Josiah and the Bonnevilles reaching new heights, completing a headlining tour of thirty-three sold-out dates followed by a slew of international stops that proved his global following. He has become known for raw emotion and a profound connection to his audience. This newfound attention has led to much anticipation for his new album — and As Is lives up to the expectations.\n\n \n\n“I knew I had a responsibility to try to become a better writer, a better artist,” he says. “One day that feels like a blessing, and the next it feels pretty intimidating.” Instead of reproducing his popular sound from the self produced “Endurance”, he decided to expand it. “I think it would have been hard to keep my excitement to go out on the road with another kind of acoustic record.” His tenth studio album finds him going more electric than ever before, even as he unplugs from the digital world. “I feel like a grizzled old veteran at this point,” he says, even though he is only thirty-six. “I’m desiring quiet, a work space away from the internet…I felt like it was important to pull back this last year and try to understand what’s on my heart.” What he found there resulted in an album focusing on joy, sorrow, and working-class issues that feel very of the moment in a time when so many Americans are struggling to make ends meet.\n\n \n\nLeming comes by his empathy for working people honestly. He’s one of nine siblings, born and raised in Morristown, Tennessee, right in the heart of Appalachia. He taught himself piano when he was eight and was writing songs by thirteen. As a child he was intently aware of his community and intensely proud of his people, something he thinks about even more in these trying times. “I look at my I look at my folks in East Tennessee and very few of them seem to be winning in this new world,” Leming says.\n\n“Being a regular person, working, trying your best. I think that’s something to be proud of.”\n\n \n\nHis records have always been intensely personal. But on As Is he wanted to step away from being the main character and instead use vignettes to express essential truths he has learned. “I want anyone to be able to put it on and not think about me when they're listening. I want them to be in the emotion.” Because of this he made a conscious choice to not include himself on the album cover.\n\n \n\nLeming chose ten tracks from ninety-six songs he has written over the last year and a half. As Is features the most co-writes he has ever recorded. “I love writing alone, but I wanted to bring in some trusted partners on this one,” he says. The resulting list features some of the most acclaimed songwriters working today. There’s Nashville powerhouse Natalie Hemby, a two-time Grammy winner who has written for everyone from Lady Gaga to Miranda Lambert; Joel Little, a Grammy winner who has written with Lorde, Taylor Swift, Noah Kahan, and many others; Scott Harris, best known for work he’s produced or written for artists such as Shawn Mendes, Dua Lipa, and The Chainsmokers; and others.\n\n \n\nTo help him find the sound he hoped to achieve, Leming brought in Konrad Snyder as a co-producer. Snyder has engineered or produced some of the best work to come out of Nashville in the last decade, including tracks by Kacey Musgraves, Stephen Sanchez, and Noah Kahan. “It was an amazing partnership with Konrad,” Leming says. “I never had to touch a computer or a piece of gear; he's a whiz with all that stuff. I’m usually so hands-on with my stuff, switching between setting up, tracking and editing but on this record I got to just perform the songs.”\n\n \n\nThe songs on As Is feature Leming’s vivid sense of place, precise yet poetic lyrics, and  emotion that is always longingly expressed by his vulnerable vocals. This collection is more up-tempo than most of his work, which is something Leming and Snyder strived to make happen on about half the songs. “I was thinking a lot about the energy, of having a couple songs that can amp up people at live shows,” he says.\n\nThis power is especially apparent on songs like opening track “Good Boy”, which boils toward a rousing breakdown, “Carolina Heart”, a tune Leming calls “less existential and my attempt at a feel-good song,“ and “Going Gone”, a nostalgic track about the passage of time. “Mountain Girl” is a foot-tapping harmonica-led tribute to Appalachian women. There’s the jaunty rock of “Redline”, and a song called “One Day at a Time” that is sure to resonate with anyone who has ever struggled with addiction, depression, or a lack of confidence. Leming’s fans often cite his storytelling abilities as one reason they love his work, and that takes center stage on the title track, a spoken-word song. “Where It Starts” is a meditation on how heartache can lead to great art.

With southern swagger, indie rock bite, and a live show that hits, the South Carolina five-piece have quickly emerged as one of the most exciting new bands in the country. Their songs are gritty and real – full of friction, soul, and defiance – and their high-energy live shows are like a shot of adrenaline.\n\nWinyah is more than a band name; it’s a hometown, a headspace, a heartbeat. Formed in 2023 and named after Winyah Bay – the coastal South Carolina landmark where four out of five members grew up – the group pulls their sound straight from the source: Humid nights, endless highways, and the push-and-pull of small-town life. Lead vocalist and rhythm guitarist Thomas Rowland, bassist Stephen Russell, keyboardist Robert Buffington Jr., lead guitarist Luke Gordon, and drummer Jacob “Jake” Riley all cut their teeth grinding weekends –  independently touring far and wide, all the while juggling jobs, college classes, and long drives – each member committing to the vision long before there was a plan.\n\n“I view the band musically as a reflection of where we came from and where we grew up,” Luke Gordon says, with Stephen Russell adding, “We wanted to take a bit of home with us. We didn’t know what we wanted to say, but we knew we had home in common.” That shared grounding gave them a foundation, but it’s their chemistry, drive, and guts that have turned Winyah into a sought-after live show. From house parties to festival stages, they’ve been climbing fast – fueled by instinct, sweat, and a chip on their shoulder. Every win becomes a stepping stone: “As soon as we sold out our biggest show this year,” Rowland grins, “we set a new goal for next year.”\n\nWhat started as a last-minute scramble to fill a Bonnaroo slot in 2024 quickly snowballed into something bigger. Winyah had three songs and five weeks to write the rest of their set – so they bunked on a friend’s couch, jammed every night in a borrowed warehouse, and built their debut record from the ground up. The resulting Lot to Learn (Feb 2025 via Cloverdale Records) wasn’t just a first album; it was a proving ground, a sonic coming-of-age born under pressure and pulled off on instinct. “It was a process of understanding where our tastes overlap,” bassist Stephen Russell reflects – a feeling Gordon echoes: “All of these songs are representations of our growing understanding of each other, and really, the early days of the relationship that is five guys in a band.”\n\nFrom the cathartic chaos of “Feel It All Again” to the driving pulse of “Thread” and the title track’s emotional reckoning, Lot to Learn plays like a snapshot of five lives in motion – messy, ambitious, and full of heart. “That song really outlines a lot of the changes that come with growing up,” Rowland says of the album’s title track. “It makes people think about the challenges that come with changes in your life, or growing up, or finding a new person.” That tension – between nostalgia and release, friction and freedom – defines the band’s early work. Whether it’s Luke Gordon’s Santana-inspired riffs on “Mamacita” or the wide-eyed vulnerability on “Lay Me Down,” Winyah’s songs don’t just tell stories; they build worlds. They’re writing about real life, in real time – and letting the sound lead the way.\n\nWinyah’s music might come from the gut, but their vision comes from something deeper. Since day one, the band has been chasing more than just a career – they’re focused on impact, connection, and a sense of purpose that transcends any single show or song.\n\nTheir goals are sky-high, but they’re not starry-eyed; they’re strategic. “We understand this band as creatives, but we also understand this band down to the dollar and the business,” they say. “We pride ourselves on working as hard as we can – and then harder.” That intensity fuels a live show built to be more than just entertainment. It’s release; it’s community. It’s a space for feeling something – joy, grief, nostalgia, freedom – and leaving it all out there. “Our goal is growth,” they add. “We want to build a real community – a place where people can feel something, escape, or just be.”\n\nWinyah’s rise has been fast and hard-earned. To date, their music has amassed over 25 million global streams and counting. They’ve played major festivals like Bonnaroo and Lollapalooza and sold out their first headline tour in 2025 – including iconic venues from NYC’s Mercury Lounge to The Senate in Columbia, South Carolina. Each milestone has built on the last – proof that word is getting out, and the world is starting to catch on.\n\nNow, Winyah are channeling that momentum into what comes next. Deep in the writing and recording process for their second album, they’re pushing themselves harder than ever – refining their sound without losing the edge that got them here. If Lot to Learn was about exploration, this one’s about intention. “We’re looking to have a more defined vision in what we’re doing and what our message is,” they explain. The sound is still real, still rough around the edges – but the vision is sharper, and the stakes are higher.\n\nWinyah aren’t slowing down; they’re doubling down. “The goal is growth,” they say. “To keep writing songs people connect with, to keep giving that release every time we play them live.” Still restless. Still hungry. Still convinced the best is yet to come.\n\nAt its heart, Winyah is about finding meaning in motion: Making music that reflects the chaos and clarity of growing up, screwing up, and pushing forward. “We want our songs to inspire,” Rowland says. “To be a place where people can let go, or look inward, or just take a deep breath and enjoy.”\n\nThey call themselves a “live band first,” and it shows – not just in the sweat, swagger, and unfiltered honesty of their sets, but in the way every decision they make flows from that fiery spirit.\n\nThey’re dreamers, yes – but the kind who turn dreams into deadlines. Headlining 1,000-cap rooms. Playing Glastonbury. Becoming a face of the new rock-and-roll revival. Their hopes are ambitious by design: Bigger rooms, bigger stages, deeper connection.\n\n“Delusional in the best way,” as they put it – and determined to make every step count.\n\n\nPenelope Road is here to bring real performance back. It’s a goal as easy to grasp and slyly ambitious as the Georgia soul-pop band’s music itself, and that mission is playing out across the country to the tune of 20,000 tickets sold in 2025 alone. “We just want people to come to a show or throw on our music and feel like they’re in the ’70s,” says Max Moore, guitarist and one of two lead singers in the group, “where everything is happening on stage or in a studio — for real — and anyone tuning in is fully immersed in the music.”\n\nCall it throwback if you like. Penelope Road won’t mind. They don’t disdain old-school musical values; they embrace them. They’re a quintet of twenty-somethings who get visibly excited at the mention of AM radio rulers like Ambrosia and Pablo Cruise, who cover America and The Eagles at their increasingly legendary jam-heavy gigs, and who serve up a stew of perfect pop hooks, funky grooves, and sweet harmonies that’d fit into any yacht rock playlist worth its salt.\n\nThe Penelope Road story starts on the Atlanta street that gave the group its name. Moore and bassist James Kopp were headquartered on Penelope Road with the rest of the initial lineup when things first got going in 2022, developing their sound amid some shabby circumstances. “We lived in an old, rickety house on the West End in the middle of nowhere. It was definitely a college house. We ran that place into the ground,” says Kopp. “It was gross,” Moore adds.\n\nBut that house was the breeding ground for a special musical spark. And when the current band roster came to fruition the next year — including singer\/keyboardist Charles Eastman, guitarist\n\nKoan Roy-Meighoo, and drummer Anthony Smith — Penelope Road moved from idea to action. With a shared musical background encompassing classic pop and rock, and a lingua franca of seminal R&B, the fellas quickly forged a sound that’s instantly accessible yet powered by real-deal musicianship too scarcely seen in modern music, on full display in their 2024 self-titled debut EP. \n\nPenelope Road started out building a grassroots following at venues in and around the city. They got a big bump up the ladder when they began posting videos on social media, including the gently funky “Out Tonight,” filmed in the attic of the old Penelope Road house. Its cozy, homegrown feel quickly went viral, attracting labels, managers, and agents. \n\nThe band signed to Warner Records in 2025, and released their second EP, The Diamond \n\nStreet Sessions. For the project, Penelope Road stayed close to home, recording at Diamond\n\nStreet Studios in Little Five Points, Atlanta, run by Tedeschi Trucks Band drummer Tyler\n\nGreenwell. “It’s a small spot but it has a very special energy,” says Kopp. Packed together in the room, the band captured the warmth and immediacy of their live sound, producing a self-produced set with guidance from David Ryan Harris (who’s worked with John Mayer and Alicia Keys). The EP overflows with energy and a good-time mix of soul, funk, pop, and roots, featuring the mellow, post-breakup “Out Tonight,” the bittersweet, harmony-rich “Flowers (Carry Me Home),” and the jazzy, sensual slow-jam “So It Goes.” “We have a structure, and we have ideas, but a lot of stuff comes out when all five of us are sitting together in a room that just happens naturally,” says Kopp — and with Penelope Road, things happen naturally or they don’t happen at all. \n\nFollowing the success of The Diamond Street Sessions, Penelope Road released their latest EP, Chance Encounter in October 2025. With romantic heart-on-sleeve lyrics, full-band grooves, and impeccably warm harmonies, the project captures the spirit of their live performances while opening a fresh chapter in their story. Tracks like the hopeful “Feel It Coming My Way,” the soul-soaked “In Your Arms,” and the deeply longing “Like You Love Me” showcase the band’s knack for crafting songs that feel both classic and unmistakably their own. HITS Daily Double praised the group for their “organically soulful pop-rock” and “impeccable stacked harmonies,” while Creative Loafing Atlanta declared Penelope Road “in a league of their own.”\n\nFresh off Chance Encounter, the Atlanta quintet closed out 2025 with three sold-out hometown shows in December and continued building their reputation through festival appearances and tours alongside Lake Street Dive and Goose. Penelope Road takes that momentum into 2026 with a North American headline tour kicking off February 13 in Brooklyn, NY. In addition, the band was featured on Grammy.com’s Grammy Reimagined series for their stunning Eagles cover, “Lyin’ Eyes,” showcasing their ability to honor classic influences while making them entirely their own.\n\nWith Penelope Road, the music flows as naturally as the band itself. Warm, joyous, and rooted in real musicianship, their sound captivates fans live and on record, establishing them as one of today’s most exciting bands to watch.\n\n  \n","media_file_type":"img","media_file_placeholder":null,"media_file_name":"https:\/\/www.jeffersontheater.com\/assets\/img\/winyahpr660-a0f55c1652.jpg","media_link":"https:\/\/www.jeffersontheater.com\/events\/detail\/winyah-x-penelope-road","ticket_link":"Buy Tickets<\/a>","event_date":"Aug<\/span> 26<\/span>, 2026<\/span>","promos":"home featured just-announced","event_time":"8:00pm","media_thumb":"https:\/\/www.jeffersontheater.com\/assets\/img\/winyahPR180-a09150541f.jpg","category":{"name":"Other","id":"0"}},{"media_title":"West 22nd - Places To Be","media_tagline":"","event_body":"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. \n\n \n\nThey call their sound carousel rock, a style that spins through genre, emotion, and energy without losing its center.

It’s about betrayal and betraying yourself. It is a stunning record and some of Cunningham’s best songwriting to date. It showcases her at the height of her powers.\n\n \n\nAce had to simmer. It follows Revealer, a darkly funny portrait of an artist that won Cunningham her Grammy. Cunningham has long been an artist’s artist, having been working as a songwriter for over a decade. “Early on, I was advised against going to college and going straight to where the music was happening,” says Cunningham, “Instead, I learned by listening and observing some of my favorite artists at work.” On Revealer, she cemented herself as not only a favorite musician of collaborators like John Mayer and Robin Pecknold, but also as a critically lauded artist with a deep fan base. \n\n \n\nAce builds off of the success of Revealer, but it is a different record. A slow burn until it wasn’t. It follows a period of writer's block. Of not knowing how to quite put feelings into words. And the way to put feelings into words was to wait. On Revealer and her debut album Who Are You Now, Cunningham says that she was writing songs about heartbreak, but they weren’t about her heartbreak. They were sketches, observations. Cunningham wanted Ace to be emotions first. Heartbreaking and lush and bold. She wanted it to be candid but to also maintain autonomy over her story, for it to always feel like it belonged to her and no one else. It felt scary to write music like that, almost impossible. And it took months for it to click. But then it did. “I shattered and became a new shape,” she says. She moved apartments. The summer was ending. She sat down and writing suddenly felt easy again. She wrote almost every song on Ace in the month of August, 2024.\n\n \n\nEach song on Ace is a direct address. It is non linear, but it does have a clear beginning and end, as breakups do. “You think you’re on the verge of true healing but something scares you,” she says, “And you have to start all over.” So the songs are love letters and goodbyes. They ask questions that are impossible to answer. “How do I forgive myself, liberate myself, love myself?” Cunningham shares. It is fitting that one of those songs is called “My Full Name.” It is one of the first songs she wrote for the record, initially written for someone Cunningham was falling in love with. But then it morphed. It became its own little world. “I love it when you say my full name,” sings Cunningham in the song’s opening moments. Then the lyrics grow more impressionistic. Water leaks are compared to the city Berlin. Images of wildflowers and a plane crash. The composition is sparse: it’s Cunningham and her piano. Woodwinds and soft brushes of percussion.\n\n \n\nCunningham rose to fame as a songwriter and a guitarist. She’s collaborated as a guitarist and as a vocalist with countless artists: Lucy Dacus, Remi Wolf, Mumford & Sons, and Andrew Bird, among others. Her guitar is perhaps what she is best known for. On Ace, which Cunningham serves as co-producer, she wanted to ever so slightly move away from that notion. Sonically, the piano is in the foreground. And Cunningham’s piano playing here is beautiful. Look no further than opener “Shatter Into Form,” and how it unspools so gently into “Shore.” The piano here is soft and searching. It feels like swimming in the sea in August. Like looking out the window of a train in June. “Nervous girl \/ In the third person \/ How words escape her,” sings Cunningham. It’s a line that is as playful as it is reflective. All of it swirls together, creating a stunningly intimate portrait of a woman growing and rebuilding. \n\n \n\nThe record also features a collaboration from Robin Pecknold of Fleet Foxes, who lends his vocals to “Wake.” Pecknold sings alongside Cunningham, as she plays intricate finger picked guitar. Her bandmates are musicians she has worked with for years, and they help sharpen her vision. They follow her lead with upright bass and stomps. It is wooly and warm. “Wake,” like the rest of Ace, is an ensemble effort, produced alongside Robbie Lackritz (Feist, Rilo Kiley, Bahamas, Peach Pit). “She’s a force of nature,” says Lackritz of their collaboration, “An unreal musical talent. When we worked, we would work all day. We would start a song and finish it that evening. We fueled off of each other’s energy. It felt like a snowball of energy and creativity.” \n\n \n\n“I wanted it to feel like a mountain peak,” says Cunningham, “I wanted Ace to feel like a mountain we built together.” “Best of Us,” Ace’s final track, might be the summit. It is some of Cunningham’s most exciting writing, her most poetic wordplay. “The kingdom has fallen,” she sings, “two bedroom apartment \/ holding up the broken arm.” Ace is a record that feels alive and lush in all the ways Cunningham hoped for when she started writing. It is a record of mastery and honesty. Cunningham loves every single song on it. You can tell.  \n","media_file_type":"img","media_file_placeholder":null,"media_file_name":"https:\/\/www.jeffersontheater.com\/assets\/img\/0919-Madison-Cunningham-web-banner-7b07b28639.jpg","media_link":"https:\/\/www.jeffersontheater.com\/events\/detail\/madison-cunningham-the-ace-tour","ticket_link":"Buy Tickets<\/a>","event_date":"Sep<\/span> 19<\/span>, 2026<\/span>","promos":"home featured just-announced","event_time":"8:00pm","media_thumb":"https:\/\/www.jeffersontheater.com\/assets\/img\/0919-Madison-Cunningham-thumbnail-17633e4d92.jpg","category":{"name":"Other","id":"0"}},{"media_title":"Cyril Neville Plays The Dead","media_tagline":"","event_body":"CYRIL NEVILLE, the Uptown Ruler, brings a lifetime of dreams come true. This two-time Grammy-winning icon is brilliant and beautiful on stage and in his recorded work. In this new chapter of his creative life, Cyril levels up even more with new songs, a fresh perspective on his decades of performances worldwide, and a determined eye on the future. As Quint Davis, founder and head of the New Orleans Jazz & Heritage Festival, said while watching Mr. Neville perform at the 2025 Jazz Fest Congo Square Stage, “He’s still got it.”\n\nCyril Neville is one of the founding fathers of the New Orleans signature funky soul-rock-jazz sound that has influenced countless artists and entertained millions of fans over his five-decade career. Mr. Neville is a vocalist, songwriter, percussionist, painter, cultural icon, and activist who richly deserves his Grammy Lifetime Achievement Award.\n\nBorn in 1948 in New Orleans, the youngest of the Neville Brothers was raised in a musical household, with his brothers Aaron, Art, and Charles all making waves on the local music scene. Their uncle, George Landry, was Big Chief Jolly of the Wild Tchoupitoulas Mardi Gras Indian Tribe, and young Cyril cut his teeth singing and playing percussion with the group. At 19, he joined his brother’s band, Art Neville and the Neville Sounds, and released his first single a year later.\n\nArt’s band soon evolved into the seminal group The Meters, featuring Cyril, guitarist Leo Nocentelli, bassist George Porter Jr., and drummer Zigaboo Modeliste. Their early releases — including the singles “Sissy Strut,” “Look-A-Py-Py,” and “Sophisticated Cissy,” along with albums such as Cabbage Alley and the Neville Brothers’ Fire on the Bayou — have become classics. Their funky grooves built the foundation for a large swath of today’s American popular music. The Meters’ reputation was cemented when The Rolling Stones offered them an opening slot on their 1975 world tour.\n\nArt and Cyril left The Meters in 1977 and, alongside Aaron and Charles, formed The Neville Brothers. For 35 years, the group rocked audiences from Tipitina’s in New Orleans to Taipei, performing around the world with their imminently danceable funk-rock sound. Their recordings, such as the Grammy-winning Yellow Moon and the equally successful follow-up Brother’s Keeper, have entered the canon of classic American music. The Neville Brothers have received four nominations for the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame and, hopefully, will one day receive their long-overdue flowers there.\n\nOne of Cyril’s current projects includes touring with his son’s band, Omari Neville and the Fuel, but he can also be heard performing with fellow Meter George Porter Jr., Trombone Shorty, and his nephew Ivan Neville’s band, Dumpstaphunk.\n\nMr. Neville has had a number of other musical projects over the years, including The Endangered Species Band, the Uptown All Stars, and Swamp Funk. After Hurricane Katrina, bluesman Tab Benoit formed the supergroup Voice of the Wetlands to advocate for coastal protections, with Cyril Neville front and center. Mr. Neville has also toured with the funk powerhouse Galactic. In 2011, he formed his own supergroup, Royal Southern Brotherhood, with Devon Allman, Mike Zito, Charlie Wooton, and Yonrico Scott.\n\nMr. Neville has recorded with a who’s who of the rock world, including Bob Dylan, Jimmy Buffett, Dr. John, Willie Nelson, Branford Marsalis, and Carlos Santana. He is a prolific writer, co-authoring songs with Bono, Allen Toussaint, Trombone Shorty, and Taj Mahal, among many others. Mr. Neville has also made a number of television appearances, including Saturday Night Live, NCIS: New Orleans, and HBO’s Treme. For many years, he operated his own Endangered Species record label.\n\nNow, he works closely with senior manager Lara Lavi and her production company, Dreaming In Color Entertainment, to release new music, including his latest single, “Lemonade,” co-written with and produced by renowned trumpet player Shamarr Allen, releasing in July 2025.\n\nCyril Neville has collected many accolades over the course of his 50-plus-year career, including a Grammy Award for the song “Healing Chant” from the 1989 album Yellow Moon, produced by Daniel Lanois. In 2017, The Neville Brothers received the Austin City Limits Lifetime Achievement Award, and a year later, The Meters were honored with a Grammy Lifetime Achievement Award.\n\nPerhaps Mr. Neville’s greatest joy is singing, recording, and performing with his son Omari Neville, whose band, Omari Neville and the Fuel, tours as Omari’s backing band. With refreshed management and talent agency support, Cyril Neville remains highly prolific and unstoppable in this next phase of his career, releasing new music monthly for the army of fans of the Wild Tchoupitoulas, The Meters, the Uptown Ruler, The Neville Brothers, and lovers of New Orleans music and culture.\n","media_file_type":"img","media_file_placeholder":null,"media_file_name":"https:\/\/www.jeffersontheater.com\/assets\/img\/Cyril-Neville-web-banner-2e7f327417.png","media_link":"https:\/\/www.jeffersontheater.com\/events\/detail\/cyril-neville-plays-the-dead","ticket_link":"Buy Tickets<\/a>","event_date":"Sep<\/span> 21<\/span>, 2026<\/span>","promos":"home featured just-announced","event_time":"8:00pm","media_thumb":"https:\/\/www.jeffersontheater.com\/assets\/img\/imagine10000600-52dbd64779.png","category":{"name":"Other","id":"0"}},{"media_title":"GLAIVE - GOD SAVE THE THREE TOUR","media_tagline":"with Tiffany Day and Kurtains","event_body":"From his beginnings in Hendersonville, North Carolina (population 15k), to opening for The Kid LAROI on\u202fThe First Time\u202ftour last year,\u202fglaive\u202fhas become a name synonymous with a scene that redefines pop, not by distancing itself from tradition but by forging a new, innovative style.

","media_tagline":"","event_body":"This show was originally scheduled for 3\/26\/26.  All tickets previously purchased for the original date are valid for entry and no additional action is needed.\n\nInfinity Song is a Soft Rock band based in New York City, comprised of 4 siblings: Abraham, Angel, Israel, and Momo Boyd. With a blend of tight vocal harmonies, dreamy lyricism, and sublime guitar riffs, the band creates a transcendent experience for the audience on every stage and in their recorded music.\n\n \n\nHomeschooled academically and musically, along with their 5 other brothers and sisters, by parents who founded the Boys & Girls Choirs of Detroit, the siblings have been performing in front of audiences since Pre-K. Raised on classical, gospel, and jazz, they draw inspiration from artists like Pat Methany, Marvin Gaye, and The Winans Family.\n\n \n\nInfinity Song’s journey began in 2006 when the Boyd patriarch, John Boyd, moved the family from Detroit to New York. The group performed all over the city, from the Metropolitan Museum of Art to Times Square, with Central Park’s Bethesda Fountain becoming their primary stage for the next 12 years. Over time, they turned casual park visitors into loyal fans, eventually being introduced to JAY-Z.\n\n \n\nIn 2016, the band was signed to Roc Nation by JAY-Z, who encouraged them to stay true to their unique sound. In 2020, they made a giant splash with their debut album Mad Love, which, combined with several viral videos, amassed millions of views and earned the attention of Hollywood's biggest names.\n\n \n\nInfinity Song's recent success marks a bold chapter in their musical evolution, which they’ve described as their Metamorphosis. Their expanded sound, blending elements of soft rock, pop, and soulful melodies, has captured the attention of a global audience. The band’s breakout moment came with the viral success of Hater’s Anthem, a track that has been endorsed by Pop star Doja Cat and shared by millions of people worldwide. Leading many listeners to compare the band to legendary 70s groups such as Fifth Dimension, The Mamas and The Papas, and ABBA. \n\n \n\nBut their journey didn’t stop there. Slow Burn and Sinking Boat, two additional singles from their Metamorphosis era, also became viral sensations, fueling their rise to new heights and captivating even more fans. \n\n \n\nIn 2024, the band embarked on a successful world tour, playing sold-out shows in Los Angeles, Toronto, London, Manchester, Brussels, Berlin, Paris, and more. They also graced the stages of major festivals such as Bonnaroo, Lollapalooza, and Pitchfork Paris - further solidifying their place in the global music scene.\n\n \n\nThe band’s latest achievement, a LIVE album, captures the magic of their dynamic performances and continues to fuel excitement for their upcoming tour & singles.

With a slight grin, he sips his coffee and leans back, one arm draped casually and comfortably over the chair.\n\n“I’m kind of settling into my age, into allowing myself to be happy,” the 33-year-old says. “For years, I led myself and the people around me into a lot of unnecessary darkness. And now, I’ve learned how to give and receive affection — it’s helped heal a lot of parts of myself.”\n\nTod’s demeanor is a far cry from his usual stiff posture stance with arms folded, this permeating sense of trepidation and scrutiny for what trouble may be coming down the pike. The relaxed, calm aura is a sign of a human being who has overcome lifelong personal demons, one who has finally become liberated — not only in his personal life, but also his music.\n\n“This latest record is so unusual for what I do,” Tod says. “It’s almost a spite album, to prove what I can do as a writer in whatever medium I step into.”\n\nTitled Shooting Star, the album carves a fresh creative path for Tod, a storied singer-songwriter and frontman of Lost Dog Street Band. The self-proclaimed “proprietor of misery,” Tod finds himself transcending into a life of gratitude, patience, and stability.\n\n“People evolve and change. You’re growing as a person,” Tod says. “If you want to get healthier, you have to start intentionally behaving like a healthy person. You have to look around you and adapt to those things — if you don’t change your identity, it’s hard to change yourself.”\n\nFor this latest solo endeavor, Tod tapped some of Nashville’s finest to conjure country gold. Shifting from his signature somber tone of struggle and survival, Tod and his coal fire throat radiate a feeling of clarity and new beginnings in the face of adversity. The result is this intrinsic, musical crossroads — more Hank Williams than Bob Wills, more Marty Stuart than George Jones.\n\n“Most of my career has been laser-focused on poetic, piercing songwriting in mainly a folk tradition.” Tod says. “I wanted to prove to myself and the industry that I could write an elite country record with ease. Either way, if I didn’t accomplish that goal, I sure as hell came closer than anyone on pop country radio.”\n\nThe inspiration for the project struck in the summer of 2022, with Tod penning the opening track\n\n“I Ain’t The Man.” From there, it became this unrelenting, internal thirst for Tod to begin\n\n“imagining what all I could do within a genre slightly outside my comfort zone.”\n\nWith a thick thread of honkytonk woven into it, the album leaves fingerprints on seemingly every style of country, from outlaw to red dirt, folk to indie, the culmination of which being a happily welcomed challenge for Tod — the ethos of his life and career at this juncture howling loudly\n\n“obstacles are opportunities.”\n\nShooting Star is also a full-circle moment for Tod. Coming of age in Music City, he found himself squarely in the midst of rough-n-tumble Lower Broadway. Busking on street corners playing Woody Guthrie and Jim Ringer tunes for spare change. And getting kicked out of Robert’s Western World or Layla’s Honky Tonk “more times than most regulars had been before the age of 20.”\n\n“Growing up on Lower Broad, the influences that I received kind of came later in life,” Tod says. “That sound was always on the tip of my tongue, but it wasn’t until about five or six years ago when I started getting back into my roots, really listening to country again and enjoying honkytonk — this record feels like a homecoming.”\n\nTod views Shooting Star as a rebuttal to the current state of affairs, for good or ill, of his native Nashville and of the music industry itself. The 10-song LP harkens to the golden era of country music. It’s taking “three chords and the truth” and actually holding yourself to those standards of vulnerability and authenticity.\n\n“I want to make music that helps people on a personal basis, to work through their own trauma and problems, to better serve their families, themselves, and their communities,” Tod says. “As a society, we need to reform back to our spirit. And my intent is to direct people back to their spirit — mind, body, and soul.”\n\nIn reflection of the long, arduous road to where he firmly stands today, Tod acknowledges his whirlwind, volatile past. But, the troubadour does so with pure intent, pushing headlong into this unwritten chapter of possibility and purpose.\n\n“Right now, I’m very excited for the future, and very thankful,” Tod says. “I’ve worked incredibly hard and made changes in my life — I’m becoming the person I’ve longed to become for years.”\n","media_file_type":"img","media_file_placeholder":null,"media_file_name":"https:\/\/www.jeffersontheater.com\/assets\/img\/1017-Benjamin-Tod-web-banner-0a7f7a4db0.jpg","media_link":"https:\/\/www.jeffersontheater.com\/events\/detail\/benjamin-tod-and-the-inline-six-2026-tour","ticket_link":"Buy Tickets<\/a>","event_date":"Oct<\/span> 17<\/span>, 2026<\/span>","promos":"home featured just-announced","event_time":"8:00pm","media_thumb":"https:\/\/www.jeffersontheater.com\/assets\/img\/1017-Benjamin-Tod-thumbnail-83a53a4881.jpg","category":{"name":"Other","id":"0"}},{"media_title":"GWAR: Gor Gor Must Die","media_tagline":"with Midnight, Mac Sabbath, X-Cops","event_body":"The story of GWAR is carved across the history of this hopeless planet, but GWAR themselves are not of this world…Their story begins far past Uranus, in the deepest reaches of space, where the beings known as GWAR were warriors in the Scumdogs of the Universe, an elite fighting force in the army of the Master of All Reality.

You know exactly what it is you’re going to be subjected to across the next 40-or-so minutes and that is always the audible equivalent of being repeatedly punched in the face by a large man with an anchor tattoo on his hairy forearm." Invisible Oranges concurred hailing a simple but effective formula of, “maximum riffs, darkness and filth, no bullshit.”\n\n\nMAC SABBATH is more than a Rock Band, MAC SABBATH is more than an arena size theatrical\n\nstage show packed into a club size stage. MAC SABBATH is more than a comedy, magic act, fast food\n\nbashing, off Broadway play set to the music of the masters or mystical Metal. Ronald Osborne and his\n\nband of Monsanto mutants Slayer MacCheeze, Grimalice and the Cat Burglar are an anti-industry tour\n\ndeforce. Not only are they battling the food industry one Black Sabbath parody song at a time, but\n\nsticking it to the music industry as well by breaking all the rules. When corporations churn out pre\n\npackaged auto tune pop fluff… Mac travels back to the psychedelic land of eye and ear melting vinyl\n\nrecords wrapped in coloring books and even pop-up books! A tangible tangerine feast for the senses!\n\nMAC SABBATH puts on a multimedia stage show complete with a smoking grill, laser-eyed clowns,\n\nbouncing burgers and many more magical surprises! Open your ears, eyes and your mouth and taste the natural flavor sensations and organic licks of these prophetic pranksters that are MAC SABBATH.\n\n\nThe X-Cops are back! After 25 years on the lam, the original Bad Boys of Law Enforcement have returned, bringing their unique brand of heavy metal with them. The world has never been more in need of the message they bring; “respect authority, or else!”, and they have the riffs and the fire power to back it up! Rumors about the identities of these uniformed thugs are rampant, with some even going as far as to say that they are made up of members of such legendary bands as GWAR, Rigor Mortis, and Darkest Hour, but the truth is they are actually former police officers who have banded together to beat the world into submission, force feed the public their own brand of Justice, and spread the word that All Cops Are Beautiful!\n","media_file_type":"img","media_file_placeholder":null,"media_file_name":"https:\/\/www.jeffersontheater.com\/assets\/img\/1027-Gwar-web-banner-9b2639f39f.jpg","media_link":"https:\/\/www.jeffersontheater.com\/events\/detail\/gwar-1","ticket_link":"Buy Tickets<\/a>","event_date":"Oct<\/span> 27<\/span>, 2026<\/span>","promos":"home featured just-announced","event_time":"8:00pm","media_thumb":"https:\/\/www.jeffersontheater.com\/assets\/img\/1027-Gwar-thumbnail-8339c05faa.jpg","category":{"name":"Other","id":"0"}},{"media_title":"Paula Cole THIS FIRE: 30","media_tagline":"","event_body":"This is a fully reserved seated show.\n\nPaula Cole returns to the stage with THIS FIRE: 30—a special anniversary tour celebrating three decades of This Fire.   A Grammy-winning singer-songwriter known for her fearless writing and genre-blending sound, Cole broke boundaries with songs that were both deeply personal and universally resonant.\n\nOn THIS FIRE: 30, Paula will perform This Fire in its entirety—revisiting the era-defining music that sparked a generation and bringing new life, nuance, and power to the songs fans have carried with them for decades.
