SUMMARY:Bluegrass Youth Ballet presents: Mira & the Thieves @ Lexington Opera House
DESCRIPTION:Bluegrass Youth Ballet Presents Mira and The Thieves \nat the Lexington Opera House on April 3 & 4\, 2026 \nTickets Available Now via Ticketmaster.com and LexingtonOperaHouse.com \n \nLEXINGTON\, KY (March 3\, 2026) –– Bluegrass Youth Ballet is excited to bring Mira and The Thieves to the Lexington Opera House on Friday\, April 3\, and Saturday\, April 4. Mira and The Thieves is an original\, visually striking ballet set in a world racing toward emptiness. High above the city in a hidden treehouse lives Mira\, a quiet\, watchful child who notices what others have forgotten. Below her\, a once-vibrant community is slowly consumed by the Thieves: elegant yet ominous figures who steal not gold\, but time\, creativity\, and spirit\, leaving people efficient\, hurried\, and hollow. \nAs the world teeters on the edge of forgetting itself\, three luminous guardians appear: Hora\, Keeper of Time; Musa\, Guardian of Creativity; and Alma\, Protector of the Spirit. Together with Mira\, they awaken the power of presence. Through play\, imagination\, and human connection\, the city begins to breathe again. The Thieves are not defeated by force\, but dissolved through awareness. \nAt once tender and urgent\, Mira and the Thieves is a contemporary fairy tale told through movement\, light\, and music\, inviting audiences of all ages to slow down\, look closer\, and rediscover what it means to live fully and intentionally. The production carries a timely mental health message\, exploring the impact of distraction in the modern world and the restorative power of presence and community connection. \nTickets are available now at Ticketmaster.com\, LexingtonOperaHouse.com\, or in person at the Central Bank Center Box Office from 12-4 P.M. on Wednesdays and Fridays.

SUMMARY:John Pardi @ Lexington Opera House
DESCRIPTION:#OneNightOnly Show Acoustic Series Concert with Jon Pardi Announced at Lexington Opera House \nTickets On Sale Now! \nWHAT:  \nThe #OneNightOnly Acoustic Series Concert 2026: A live and intimate acoustic performance from today’s biggest country singer and songwriting stars\, presented by HARDEE’S. Jon Pardi will be joined by Josh Ross and Dalton Davis. \nIt’s been more than a decade since Capitol Records Nashville artist Jon Pardi began careening down the highway\, leading the charge to modernize honky tonk with roaring guitars and a roaring\, good-time spirit. \nNow with four Top 5 albums which include 2016’s Platinum #1\, California Sunrise\, Pardi’s reputation for punchy\, against-the-wind bravado has only grown. Never afraid to break from the pack\, fourteen RIAA-certified singles feature six #1s (like the back-to-back 6x-Platinum “Head Over Boots” and “Dirt On My Boots”)\, and with years of blue-collar barnstorming behind him\, the California native has earned international headlining acclaim\, alongside 9.3 billion global streams. But despite the success – or maybe emboldened by it – today’s Jon Pardi feels more restless than ever. \nTickets are available now at ticketmaster.com\, lexingtonoperahouse.com\, or in person at the Central Bank Center Box Office from 12-4 P.M. on Wednesdays and Fridays. \nWHEN:\nTuesday\, April 7\n7:30 p.m. \nWHERE: \nLexington Opera House – 401 W Short St\, Lexington\, KY

They sing\, “It hits me as I drive away / I’ll never see your hair go gray.” \nCunningham first met Pecknold backstage at one of her shows\, putting a face to the music she had long adored. “Fleet Foxes’ melodies and songs have inspired me for as long as I can remember\,” Cunningham says. “I feel quite lucky to have been able to experience his genius up close.” \nRobin Pecknold on working with Madison Cunningham: “Working with Madison on this was a humbling and enlightening experience!

SUMMARY:The Orchestra @ Lexington Opera House
DESCRIPTION:The Story Began in 1970…\nThe story starts in 1970 in Birmingham\, England\, where the Electric Light Orchestra began their journey as one of the world’s most popular rock bands. Their music was characterized by a fusion of Beatlesque pop\, classical arrangements\, and futuristic iconography. \nMik Kaminski joined the band in 1973 with his legendary blue violin. The classic lineup of ELO solidified in 1974 with the addition of bassist/singer Kelly Groucutt and orchestrator Lou Clark\, who augmented the band’s unique orchestral rock sound with his inventive classical arrangements. Mik\, Lou\, and Kelly played their way onto an astonishing library of hit records that sold more than 50 million copies. The albums include Eldorado\, Face the Music\, A New World Record\, Out of the Blue\, Discovery\, and Xanadu. \nAfter the original line-up of ELO broke up in 1986\, drummer Bev Bevan created ELO Part II in 1988 with English guitarist Pete Haycock\, American keyboardist and songwriter Eric Troyer\, and ELO former members Kaminski\, Clark\, Groucutt\, and cellist Hugh McDowell. The band later recruited English guitarist Phil Bates to fill out the lineup. Groucutt\, Bates\, and Troyer were all accomplished lead and harmony singers which provided an abundance of vocal riches that pushed the band’s classic sound into fresh sonic territory. Phil Bates left ELO Part II in 1998 and was replaced by American singer\, songwriter\, and guitarist Parthenon Huxley. \nIn late 1999 drummer Bevan retired and was replaced with American drummer Gordon Townsend. The band began touring as THE ORCHESTRA in 2000\, emerging as a true rock supergroup—formed by former members of ELO and ELO Part II alongside celebrated musicians from other iconic rock acts. The new lineup released the acclaimed album No Rewind. The album features original songs by Kaminski\, Troyer\, Huxley\, and Groucutt\, as well as a stunning interpretation of “Twist and Shout.” \nNine years later in 2009\, THE ORCHESTRA bassist and congenial front man\, Kelly Groucutt\, suddenly passed away the day after performing a concert with the group in Berlin\, which was a devastating shock to the band and to classic rock fans around the world. His boyhood home features a plaque honoring Kelly’s accomplishments with ELO. THE ORCHESTRA recruited occasional ELO Part II member and former Styx bassist\, guitarist\, songwriter\, and singer Glen Burtnik to fill Kelly’s spot center stage. \nWhile Lou Clark’s multi-talented son\, Louis Clark Jr.\, worked with ELO Part II in the ‘90s\, he became a permanent band member with THE ORCHESTRA in 2011. The father and son team lived the dream of performing together onstage around the world until 2021 when Louis Clark Sr. passed away. Louis Jr. now carries on in his late father’s role as orchestral keyboardist and symphonic conductor\, along with the occasional romp on cello and guitar. \nMulti-instrumentalist Cliff Hillis has been adding rich vocals\, guitar\, and bass to THE ORCHESTRA’s dynamic sound since 2017. Electric violinist Susan Aquila\, a five-time Grammy Award nominee\, joined the band in 2025 bringing her dynamic style\, electrifying stage presence\, and world-class experience from performing with artists including Paul McCartney\, Elton John\, Beyoncé\, Billy Joel\, and Joe Jackson. Vocalist and guitarist August Zadra has collaborated with THE ORCHESTRA on select live performances and touring appearances. \nIn 2024\, the documentary No Rewind: The Orchestra Starring ELO Former Members was released\, providing rare behind-the-scenes band footage\, stories of life on the road\, and performances of each song from the album No Rewind. Edited together in a music video style\, the film is a fast-moving reveal of how this iconic band has earned its place in rock and roll history. \nOver the years the members of THE ORCHESTRA have played ELO’s greatest hits to millions of fans in over fifty countries\, representing a rare convergence of rock veterans whose combined legacies span multiple platinum albums\, Grammy recognition\, and decades of global touring.

SUMMARY:The Man in Black: Tribute to Johnny Cash @ Lexington Opera House
DESCRIPTION:The Man In Black: A Tribute to Johnny Cash is Coming to \nthe Lexington Opera House on Thursday\, April 9\, 2026 \nGeneral On-Sale Begins Friday\, November 7 at 10 A.M. \nLocal via Ticketmaster.com and LexingtonOperaHouse.com \n \nLEXINGTON\, KY (November 3\, 2025) –– With his strikingly similar looks\, baritone voice\, and spot-on mannerisms\, Shawn Barker brings The Man In Black: A Tribute to Johnny Cash to the Lexington Opera House on Thursday\, April 9\, 2026. With his uncanny resemblance to the original “Man In Black”\, he revitalizes the true character and spirit of Mr. Cash himself\, one of America’s greatest musical icons\, for a truly one-of-a-kind show. The energetic show features Barker in character throughout the entire evening\, walking the audience through each era of Cash’s life and music\, including hits like “Folsom Prison Blues\,” “I Walk The Line\,” “A Boy Named Sue\,” “Hurt” and “Ring of Fire\,” complete with a full backing band. \nShawn Barker’s first Man In Black show was held in 2004 at a casino in Niagara Falls and has since performed over 1\,000 shows in 12 countries\, selling more than half a million tickets over the course of his career. Born and raised in a working-class suburb of St. Louis\, Barker took a schoolboy love for singing in church with his family and turned it into a career. The path to his current success wasn’t a straight line from gospel choir to Johnny Cash tribute act. After serving his country in the Army\, Barker returned home to Missouri\, took a job as a carpenter\, and spent all of his free time learning how to play the guitar. He developed strength and versatility in his voice by modeling his crooning on a cast of legends – Johnny Cash\, Elvis Presley\, Roy Orbison\, Buddy Holly\, and Gene Vincent. His performances quickly turned from hobby to profession\, but oddly enough\, Barker’s first touring gigs were portraying Elvis\, not Johnny Cash. Everything changed\, however\, when Barker was asked to audition for the part of Cash in a Hollywood production\, as it became evident to the director and Barker himself that Johnny Cash was his true calling. From that point\, there was no turning back. \nTickets will be available for purchase starting at 10 A.M. on Friday\, November 7\, at ticketmaster.com\, lexingtonoperahouse.com\, or in person at the Central Bank Center Box Office from 12-4 P.M. on Wednesdays and Fridays.

SUMMARY:Pat Metheny Side Eye III @ Taft Theater
DESCRIPTION:PAT METHENY\nRETURNS TO CINCINNATI \nTAFT THEATRE \nSATURDAY\, APRIL 11 \nTickets On Sale Friday\, October 24 at 10am \nCincinnati\, OH (10/20/25) – Legendary Jazz Guitarist Pat Metheny brings his Side Eye III+ project to Taft Theatre on Saturday\, April 11. \nTickets will go on sale to the public beginning at 10am on Friday\, October 24 at Ticketmaster.com. Tickets will also be available at The Taft Theatre box office during normal business hours. \nABOUT PAT METHENY \nPat Metheny was born in Lee’s Summit\, MO on August 12\, 1954 into a musical family. Starting on trumpet at the age of 8\, Metheny switched to guitar at age 12. By the age of 15\, he was working regularly with the best jazz musicians in Kansas City\, receiving valuable on-the- bandstand experience at an unusually young age. Metheny first burst onto the international jazz scene in 1974. Over the course of his three-year stint with vibraphone great Gary Burton\, the young Missouri native already displayed his soon-to-become trademarked playing style\, which blended the loose and flexible articulation customarily reserved for horn players with an advanced rhythmic and harmonic sensibility: a way of playing and improvising that was modern in conception but grounded deeply in the jazz tradition of melody\, swing\, and the blues. With the release of his first album\, Bright Size Life (1975)\, he reinvented the traditional “jazz guitar” sound for a new generation of players. Throughout his career\, Pat Metheny has continued to redefine the genre by utilizing new technology and constantly working to evolve the improvisational and sonic potential of his instrument. \nMetheny’s versatility is nearly without peer on any instrument. Over the years\, he has performed with artists as diverse as Steve Reich to Ornette Coleman to Herbie Hancock to Jim Hall to Milton Nascimento to David Bowie. Metheny’s body of work includes compositions for solo guitar\, small ensembles\, electric and acoustic instruments\, large orchestras\, and ballet pieces and even the robotic instruments of his Orchestrion project\, while always sidestepping the limits of any one genre. \nAs well as being an accomplished musician\, Metheny has also participated in the academic arena as a music educator. At 18\, he was the youngest teacher ever at the University of Miami. At 19\, he became the youngest teacher ever at the Berklee College of Music\, where he also received an honorary doctorate more than twenty years later\, in 1996. He has also taught music workshops all over the world\, from the Dutch Royal Conservatory to the Thelonious Monk Institute of Jazz to clinics in Asia and South America. He has also been a true musical pioneer in the realm of electronic music\, and was one of the very first jazz musicians to treat the synthesizer as a serious musical instrument. Years before the invention of MIDI technology\, Metheny was using the Synclavier as a composing tool. He also has been instrumental in the development of several new kinds of guitars such as the soprano acoustic guitar\, the 42-string Pikasso guitar\, Ibanez’s PM series jazz guitars\, and a variety of other custom instruments. \nIt is one thing to attain popularity as a musician\, but it is another to receive the kind of acclaim Metheny has garnered from critics and peers. Over the years\, he has won countless polls as “Best Jazz Guitarist” and awards\, including three gold records for (Still Life) Talking\, Letter from Home\, and Secret Story. He has also won 20 Grammy Awards spread out over a variety of different categories including Best Rock Instrumental\, Best Contemporary Jazz Recording\, Best Jazz Instrumental Solo\, Best Instrumental Composition at one point winning seven consecutive Grammys for seven consecutive albums. In 2015 he was inducted into the DownBeat Hall of Fame\, becoming only the fourth guitarist to be included (along with Django Reinhardt\, Charlie Christian and Wes Montgomery) and its youngest member. In 2018 he was named an NEA Jazz Master\, the nation’s highest honor in jazz\, awarded to the recipients “for their lifetime achievements and exceptional contributions to the advancement of jazz.” Metheny has spent much of his life on tour\, often doing more than 100 shows a year since becoming a bandleader in the 70’s. At the time of this writing\, he continues to be one of the brightest stars of the jazz community\, dedicating time to both his own projects and those of emerging artists and established veterans alike\, helping them to reach their audience as well as realizing their own artistic visions.

Most recently\, Green released the deluxe version\, Don’t Mind If I Do (Deluxe)\, which includes six brand new tracks. Currently on an incredible hot streak\, Green’s well-earned confidence in his work shines through across the 18-track set with five of the tracks being solely written including standouts “Jesus Saves\,” the 2X-PLATINUM “Worst Way” and the title track—which finds Green reuniting with his “you look like you love me” duet partner.

SUMMARY:Hunter Hayes: The Evergreen Tour @ Taft Theatre
DESCRIPTION:HUNTER HAYES ANNOUNCES NEW RECORD\nWITH ACCOMPANYING TOUR \n \nTAFT THEATRE \nFRIDAY\, APRIL 17 \nTickets On Sale Friday\, December 12 at 10am \nCincinnati\, OH (12/4/25) – Today\, 5x GRAMMY® nominated and PLATINUM-selling\, multi-instrumentalist and singer-songwriter\, Hunter Hayes announced his new album\, Evergreen\, releasing March 6th\, 2026. In addition to the forthcoming album\, Hayes also announced his 2026 headlining Evergreen Tour\, which will kick off on March 25th in Hopewell\, VA and stop by Cincinnati\, OH for a performance at Taft Theatre on Friday\, April 17. Franklin Jonas & The Byzantines will support as special guests for the Cincinnati performance. \nTickets will go on sale to the public beginning at 10am on Friday\, December 12 at Ticketmaster.com. Tickets will also be available at The Taft Theatre box office during normal business hours. \nThis new project features pop\, country\, R&B\, and indie rock-infused elements while exploring themes of growth\, connection\, and joy. Recorded with Alex Flagstad\, Evergreen captures the full scope of Hayes’ creativity – songs that are as emotionally rich as they are musically daring. From the buoyant optimism of “Around the Sun\,” to the playful vulnerability of “Every Piece\,” and the infectious tension of “Wait\,” these recent releases reveal Hayes as a songwriter in constant evolution\, whose heart-forward storytelling continues to resonate across generations. \nOf the record\, Hayes says\, “Evergreen started as a series of letters from my future self. In some ways a prayer\, and in some ways manifestation. I wanted to make a project from the future. It’s full of hope\, optimism\, light and love. It’s an escape from reality as well as a new way to appreciate the good things in our everyday life\, and how every experience shapes us to better and brighter versions of ourselves as we create a better version of our future.” \nA warm\, cinematic statement on growth\, renewal and self-discovery\, Evergreen blends hope\, authenticity\, and emotional clarity into a collection that feels both deeply personal and universally resonant. The album examines the core value that love\, presence\, and compassion begin with the self. Across its songs\, Hayes questions long-held beliefs about performance\, worthiness\, love\, and masculinity\, embracing a definition of strength that is soft and evolving. Guided by his motto\, “Be good to yourself and the world around you\,” Evergreen showcases Hayes at his most fully expressive artistic chapter yet. \nABOUT HUNTYER HAYES \nGRAMMY®-nominated\, multi-instrumentalist and PLATINUM-selling artist\, Hunter Hayes is an embodiment of a musician that embraces evolution and redefines boundaries. Bursting onto the scene with his PLATINUM-certified debut album\, Hayes has charted a unique course through the genre-bending course he was destined to explore. \nThe Louisiana native has amassed over 3 billion global on-demand streams since his debut\, with seven singles achieving gold and 10x PLATINUM certifications.

A multi-platinum\, Grammy-nominated singer\, songwriter\, and multi-instrumentalist\, Hayes is recognized as one of the most versatile and respected artists of his generation. Across five acclaimed studio albums\, he’s played nearly every instrument\, written for icons like Rascal Flatts\, toured with generational stars Taylor Swift\, and shared stages with legends ranging from Stevie Wonder to Carrie Underwood. Known for his rare ability to craft songs that resonate across genres and generations\, Hayes connects with listeners through a blend of unapologetic artistry\, masterful musicianship\, and profoundly human storytelling. \nNow\, armed with his most sonically adventurous music to date\, Hayes is ready for a new era\, one that feels less like reinvention and more like arrival. Recorded mainly in his studio with close collaborators including producer Alex Flagstad\, the forthcoming album captures the full scope of his creativity: songs that are as emotionally rich as they are musically daring\, blending pop\, soul\, country\, and indie influences into something unmistakably his own. Much of the material was recorded and written with a small group of collaborators\, showcasing an artist fully in command of his craft and creating music that feels honest\, joyful\, and more grounded than ever. \n“This project is how my outlook has changed\,” he proclaims. “The things I’m focused on and the things I’m doing to step forward are to create my own happiness.” \nA lifelong musician\, Hayes’ journey began before most children start school. By the age of 4\, he was performing on national television; by seven\, he had played for President Bill Clinton at the White House. Signed to a major publishing deal at 17\, he quickly established himself as a sought-after songwriter and performer\, who captivated audiences with his engaging and authentic performances while earning industry acclaim with hits from his 2011 self-titled debut and 2014’s Storyline. His early success cemented him as an artist who has the rare combination of commercial appeal and musical depth\, a through-line that has carried into every chapter of his career. \nIn recent years\, Hayes has embraced the freedom of working independently\, returning to the spirit that fueled his earliest days. That same drive that once had a 10-year-old Hayes handing out flyers for his Branson\, Missouri residency now sees him spending long days in the studio\, experimenting like a scientist crafting the perfect formula. That spirit sparked the most prolific songwriting period of his life – music shaped by curiosity\, resilience\, and a deep trust in the connection he’s built with his fans. \nThis new batch of songs reveals an artist comfortable living outside any single genre. Hayes weaves together threads of pop\, country\, R&B\, and indie rock\, with lyrics that explore personal growth\, connection\, and the search for joy. The buoyant “Around the Sun” radiates optimism. Born from a November 2024 solo writing session where Hayes set out to capture positivity instead of division. Continuing with his flurry of experimentation\, “Every Piece” fuses vulnerability with a playful groove\, and the infectious\, radio-ready “Wait” captures the tension and grace of life’s uncertain moments. Every track carries the precision of a craftsman and the heart of a storyteller\, reflecting a songwriter in constant evolution\, who is never satisfied with his personal status quo and continues to create timeless music. Yet at its heart\, the album contains the heart-on-his-sleeve lyrics that have made Hayes a relatable songwriter and continue to win new fans at every turn. \nFor Hayes\, this era is about more than sound; it’s about purpose. “I want the music to feel like free therapy\,” he says. “Something that makes you feel better\, more understood\, more alive.” That mission\, combined with his unmatched musicianship and unwavering curiosity\, is what continues to make him one of the most compelling artists of his time. As he’s done since his first steps on stage as a toddler\, Hunter Hayes evolves without losing the essence of who he is – an artist dedicated to the song\, to the craft\, and to the people who show up to listen.

Rallying “rowdy\, good-ol’-boy\, good-time vocals\,” as hailed by MusicRow\, it took flight as the most added at Country radio with 60 first-week stations launching the single and marking his second biggest impact date of his hitmaking career. Listen to “After Midnight” and watch the Jeff Johnson and Kaiser Cunningham-directed music video. \nABOUT NATE SMITH \nJust two years after smashing the doors open to the Country music scene\, MULTI-PLATINUM chart-topper Nate Smith has risen to the ranks of the genre’s biggest hitmakers. With over 2.9 BILLION global career streams to date\, he’s already earned his fourth consecutive #1 with current single “Fix What You Didn’t Break” (Sony Music Nashville)\, after becoming the first artist in Country Aircheck/Mediabase chart history to launch their career with three straight multi-week #1 smashes including 3X PLATINUM #1 “Whiskey On You”; PLATINUM\, record-setting\, 10-week consecutive #1 “World on Fire”; and PLATINUM #1 “Bulletproof.” The Paradise\, California-born musician made a knockout debut in 2023 with his GOLD self-titled LP\, and next brought his high-octane brand of Country to his sophomore album\, California Gold\, the following year with genre-defying collaborations featuring Avril Lavigne and Alesso (on the #1 Dance hit “I Like It”). With his TV appearances including TODAY\, The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon\, and Jimmy Kimmel Live!\, Smith’s racked up nominations from CMA\, CMT\, iHeartRadio\, and People’s Choice Country Awards\, all while being recognized as ACM New Male Artist of the Year 2024\, Billboard’s Country Power Players Rookie of the Year 2024\, and Amazon Music’s Breakthrough Artist 2024\, and winning acclaim from the likes of Rolling Stone\, GRAMMY.com\, American Songwriter\, Los Angeles Times\, and The Tennessean (who praised him as “country music’s fastest-rising beloved voice”). Selling out crowds across the country as an incendiary headliner with his LONG LIVE COUNTRY ROCK AND ROLL TOUR next spring\, he’s also on deck as direct support for Jason Aldean’s FULL THROTTLE TOUR 2026\, after previously opening for Thomas Rhett\, Cole Swindell\, and Morgan Wallen. Dropping “After Midnight” featuring Tyler Hubbard\, after last joining forces with HARDY for “Nobody Likes Your Girlfriend\,” he also delivered the deeply poignant “Dads Don’t Die.” Smith is managed by Kevin “Chief” Zaruk and Simon Tikhman with The Core Entertainment. \nABOUT JOSH ROSS \nMCA / Mercury Nashville / Universal Music Canada / CORE Records artist Josh Ross is carving his own lane in country music. The Nashville-based singer made waves with a series of independent releases before scoring his first No. 1 hit on U.S. country radio with “Single Again” in 2025 after a 71-week climb\, notching a massive milestone in his burgeoning career. The success of “Single Again” puts Ross in an elite category as the first male Canadian country artist in nearly 30 years to top the Billboard Country Airplay chart. \nRoss is building upon this star power with his debut album\, Later Tonight\, a collection of 15 songs\, including current country radio single “Hate How You Look\,” that show off the smooth singer’s range of emotions and songwriting prowess. Having opened for superstars like Luke Bryan\, Jelly Roll\, Nickelback\, and more\, Ross has just started making his mark. \nABOUT BRANDON WISHAM \nA powerful new voice in country music\, 22-year-old singer/songwriter Brandon Wisham possesses the kind of raw talent that instantly commands the spotlight. Originally from Savannah\, Georgia but raised in Williamston\, South Carolina\, he grew up as the youngest of seven children and took up guitar as a child\, then began playing cover shows in local bars when he was just 15. At 19\, he wrote his first-ever song — “Pain Won’t Last\,” a heartrending track about losing his father to Covid — and quickly landed a global publishing deal with Warner Chappell Music and The Core Entertainment. Along with cutting his own version of “Pain Won’t Last” for 2023’s platinum-certified Religiously. The Album.\, country superstar Bailey Zimmerman enlisted the rising young musician as support for a major tour that launched in LA in early 2024. After spending much of last year on the road (including a run of dates with Josh Ross) and captivating sold-out rooms with just his soulful vocals and acoustic guitar\, Wisham headed into the studio with producer Brandon Hood (Ty Myers\, Mackenzie Carpenter). Wisham kicked off the year with the release of his debut single “Back Together” followed by “Better Than The Day\,” which shortly after got added to SiriusXM The Highway On The Horizon. With “Growin’ Up\,” Wisham shows his more introspective side and serves up a sing-along-ready reflection on coming of age\, while his latest track\, “She’s Good\,” adds an emotionally charged anthem to his growing catalog. With just four songs out\, SiriusXM The Highway named Wisham as a recent “Highway Find.” Wisham also made his CMA Fest debut this year as well as joined Chase Matthew on stage for his Kansas City show. Now with a big summer and fall ahead\, Wisham will join Tyler Hubbard\, Lakeview\, Austin Snell\, and then Nate Smith on select dates nationwide. New singles like “Whiskey’s Whisperin’” continue to build on his momentum and give a further glimpse into his reflective storytelling. The Nashville-based artist is revealing the full force of his musical prowess on his first series of singles — a deeply personal batch of songs graced with equal parts unfiltered humanity and fiercely hopeful spirit.

SUMMARY:Puscifer's Normal Isn't Tour @ Taft Theater
DESCRIPTION:PUSCIFER’S NORMAL ISN’T TOUR\nCOMES TO CINCINNATI \nTAFT THEATRE \nAPRIL 19 \nTickets On Sale Friday\, October 24 at 10am \nCincinnati\, OH (10/21/25) – Puscifer\, the multi-dimensional band featuring Maynard James Keenan\, Mat Mitchell and Carina Round\, brings their highly-anticipated Normal Isn’t Tour to Taft Theatre on April 19. \nTickets will go on sale to the public beginning at 10am on Friday\, October 24 at Ticketmaster.com. Tickets will also be available at The Taft Theatre box office during normal business hours. \nThe tour celebrates the band’s first new album in over five years\, Normal Isn’t (Feb. 6\, Puscifer Entertainment/Alchemy Recordings/BMG). The record channels the post-punk influences that shaped the members’ early musical experiences while pushing into darker\, more guitar-driven territory. \n“We’re definitely leaning into our early influences\,” Keenan shares. “It’s the place where goth meets punk. It’s where I came from.” \nWritten and recorded across Arizona\, Los Angeles\, and on the road during last year’s Sessanta tour\, Normal Isn’t blends the dark electronics and sharp humor Puscifer is known for with a more spontaneous creative process. “From the outset\, we had discussed an element of rawness and edge\, which guitar brings\,” shares Mitchell\, who co-produced the album. “We got rid of the guard rails and made the music more aggressive. \nFor Keenan\, this release represents a new approach to songwriting. While he’s always been deeply involved in shaping Puscifer’s sound\, this time he set-up his own digital recording system and built full song ideas before presenting them to Mat and Carina. \nThat shift gives the music fresh immediacy\, one that Round says changed the dynamic in the studio. “Instead of just saying\, ‘I want this to sound like Fleetwood Mac on cocaine if they had a baby with PJ Harvey\,’ Maynard was showing us his intention\, which was really cool\,” she explains. “In Puscifer\, any idea can totally change without any preciousness\, and everybody is on board – not unlike an insane asylum. We found each other because we’re demented in a symbiotic way.” \n“Normal Isn’t reflects this time we are living in\,” Keenan adds. “As storytellers and artists\, our job is to observe\, interpret\, and report. We take in our environment and share what we see\, and what we see around us does not appear normal. Not by a long shot.” \nContributors to the new collection include Greg Edwards (bass)\, Gunnar Olsen (drums)\, and Sarah Jones (drums) with guests Tony Levin (bass on “Normal Isn’t” and “Seven One”)\, Danny Carey (drums on “Seven One”) and Mr. Ian Ross (father of Atticus Ross\, who narrates “Seven One”). \nNormal Isn’t is available now for pre-order and pre-saves (https://Puscifer.lnk.to/NormalIsnt)\, including multiple limited-edition vinyl variants: standard black\, indie retail orange swirl\, a Puscifer.com exclusive black ice and clear with black splatter\, and a Queen B Vinyl Café fruit punch in tan with black and white splatter. The album is also available on CD\, cassette\, and digitally. \nABOUT PUSCIFER \nPuscifer is a band of three creative confidants\, namely Mat Mitchell\, Carina Round\, and Maynard James Keenan\, who fuse music\, performance\, and visual art into a singular experience. Over the years\, Puscifer has carved an indelible mark on the cultural landscape\, releasing a series of acclaimed albums\, selling out famed venues\, appearing on the lineups of Coachella\, Bonnaroo\, and other major festivals\, and even curating their own touring festival\, Sessanta. They’ve provided what was essentially the soundtrack to the first season of “Yellowstone\,” and their albums regularly land on the top 30 of the Billboard Top 200. They’ve made memorable appearances on “Jimmy Kimmel Live!” and the “The Late Show\,” bringing their signature blend of precision\, wit\, and theatricality to late night television. \nPuscifer has also welcomed a revolving door of collaborators\, from musicians like Greg Edwards\, Gunnar Olsen\, and Sarah Jones to remixers including Trent Reznor\, Atticus Ross\, Phantogram\, and Sir Mix-A-Lot\, as well as actors Bob Odenkirk and Milla Jovovich. It’s also a universe for the (mis)adventures of original characters: Billy D\, (his wife) Hildy Berger\, Major Douche\, and Special Agent Dick Merkin. More than a band\, Puscifer is a creative ecosystem; a boundary-pushing collective where sound\, story\, and spectacle collide. \nPuscifer.com\nYouTube.com/pusciferdotcom\nInstagram.com/puscifer\nFacebook.com/puscifermusic\nTikTok.com/@puscifermusic01
