Scott Aukerman's Comedy Bang! Bang! is hitting the road this year, bringing the beloved comedy podcast, which has entertained audiences for over a decade, live to a stage near you! Joining Aukerman on the journey is Comedy Bang! Bang! mainstay Paul F. Tompkins, along with a rotating cast of special guests and, of course, a plethora of side-splitting characters.

Hitting the road in North America this year is Leonid and Friends, the YouTube sensation tribute band to Chicago, Earth Wind & Fire and others, from Eastern Europe! Despite never having seen Chicago live (they never toured to band leader Leonid Vorobyev's home country of Russia), the group became a global hit for their stunning recreation of the music of the legendary American soft-rockers.

Artemas is an English-Cypriot singer-songwriter who gained viral popularity with his hit track 'I Like the Way You Kiss Me'. The track was released independently in March 2024 and is known for its darkwave and alternative pop style, characterized by moody 80s and pulsating synths. Since then his dark pop music has led to a growing die hard fanbase. Artemas sites Nirvana as a primary influence, which can be seen in his dark moody atmospheres.

Led by Ben Bridwell, Band of Horses do anthemic, wistful American indie better than anyone. Drenched in reverb and glittering guitar tones, they trade in vulnerability while still playing songs bursting with hooks and fist-pumping choruses. Heading out on tour this year, get ready to lose yourself in the music once more.

Alternative rock band Daughtry formed in 2008 after vocalist Chris Daughtry made it to the finals in the fifth season of American Idol. The show proved to be the perfect platform for the North Carolina native, with several studio albums under his belt he's showing no signs of slowing down. Don't miss the chance to see them live this year!

For the oft critically acclaimed Spoon, it's all about the song. For over two decades, they have quietly topped the critics' record and song of the year lists, whilst retaining their control over their independent sound. With smart, stylish grooves and artful lyricism, Spoon embody doing things for the right reasons, and have seen their music featured everywhere from The Simpsons to The OC and still kept their inherent coolness.
