 p>It’s obvious listening to <strong>Sarah Shook and the Disarmers</strong>’
  clear-eyed\, biting\, and unafraid songs that integrity is the most import
 ant thing to the Chapel Hill\, North Carolina\, country-punk outfit.<br />“
 A lot of artists are in this industry for fame\, recognition\, and money bu
 t those things don’t mean anything to me\,” says bandleader River Shook. “S
 ongwriting is it for me. It’s the only real healthy coping mechanism I've e
 ver had. It’s life-saving. I don't care about any superficial things when I
 ’m making a record.” On their resonant fourth album Revelations\, produced 
 by Shook and out March 29 via Thirty Tigers\, these raw and resilient track
 s come first. Throughout\, Shook’s deft storytelling documents regular peop
 le getting by and keeping on\, all presented without filter or pretension.

 nd Friends:</em></strong></p><p><strong>Andrew Weiss and Friends</strong> b
 lend anthemic road rock\, booming pop\, and poetic Americana across acclaim
 ed LPs\, with sold-out shows and performances alongside Counting Crows and 
 Rob Thomas. Singer-songwriter Andrew Weiss crafts intimate\, character-driv
 en stories reminiscent of Dawes and Tom Petty. Self-taught from age seven\,
  Weiss's journey\, influenced by The Beatles\, led to solo projects before 
 forming the band. Since 2018\, they've released four LPs\, three EPs\, and 
 singles\, performing at notable festivals and venues. Their music\, describ
 ed as "Power Pop-icana\," celebrates camaraderie and serves as a healing ag
 ent in these modern times. IG: <a href="https://www.instagram.com/andrewwei
