It can be argued that it was Booker T. Jones who set the cast for modern soul music and is largely responsible for its rise and enduring popularity. On classic Stax hits like Green Onions, Hang ‘Em High, Time Is Tight, and Melting Pot the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame inductee, Musicians Hall of Fame inductee and GRAMMY Lifetime Achievement Award recipient pushed the music’s boundaries, refined it to its essence and then injected it into the nation’s bloodstream. Sound the Alarm, the new album from Booker T, finds the Hammond B3 organ master looking ahead yet again, laying down his distinctive bedrock grooves amid a succession of sparkling collaborations with some of contemporary R&B’s most gifted young voices. Sound the Alarm also marks Booker T’s historic return to Stax Records, the Memphis soul label the instrumentalist, bandleader, producer, and songwriter helped put on the map during the 1960s, along with his brilliant band, the MGs. Creatively, it’s another bold new step in a career that has witnessed a striking resurgence in recent years. Booker T took home Best Pop Instrumental Album GRAMMY Awards for both 2010’s Potato Hole, his head-turning collaboration with The Drive-By Truckers and 2012’s The Road From Memphis, his critically acclaimed album with The Roots. He is not resting on those laurels. For Sound the Alarm, Booker T shares production chores with brothers Bobby Ross Avila and Issiah “IZ” Avila, who co-wrote eight songs and serve as the rhythm section on most of the album’s 12 tracks. The highly sought after siblings have worked with such top acts as Usher, Janet Jackson, Mary J. Blige, Missy Elliot, Chaka Khan and Earth, Wind & Fire. “Bobby and I had previously done a little impromptu gig with El Debarge – that was the turning point when I decided to work with him,” Booker says. “They have a different perspective about the musical palette,” he adds regarding their approach. “Their attitude is quite unique and quite innovative. That’s something I’ve looked for since I was maybe 13 or 14 years old and had figured out a little bit about music. It can be very predictable or it can be exploratory. I’m always looking for something new to do.” For the tracks All Over the Place and Broken Heart, the Avila Brothers were joined behind the board by the legendary Twin Cities production team of Jimmy Jam & Terry Lewis. “Bobby was instrumental in bringing them to California when they left Minneapolis,” Booker says. “Terry also contributed music and lyrics and vocal production on this album. He was very instrumental in helping choose many of the singers and direction of the songs.” Sound the Alarm is graced with soulful guest performances by R&B stars Anthony Hamilton (on Gently) and Estelle (on Can’t Wait). Another dynamic talent, Raphael Saadiq, contributes guitar work on Broken Heart and Feel Good. Says Booker of the neo-soul star, “He’s been an inspiration for the album.” The set also showcases a number of exciting singers who are just beginning to make their mark on contemporary R&B, including Mayer Hawthorne (Sound the Alarm), Jay James (Broken Heart) and Luke James (All Over the Place). Your Love is No More, features the Los Angeles-based group Vintage Trouble, who also co-wrote the number with Booker T. “John Burk, the co-executive producer of the album, took me to see them opening for Joss Stone at the Wiltern Theatre in L.A., and I just loved them,” he says. “They don’t have a keyboard, and they always say that I’m the only guy they’re going to play with.” Sound the Alarm also features some top-flight instrumentalists from outside the soul/R&B sphere. “Austin City Blues” is a showpiece for the stunning Texas blues guitarist Gary Clark, Jr. “Gary and I have a real thing going on mentally, kind of like what I had with Steve Cropper in the MGs, really understanding each other,” says Booker. “He really is in my corner.” “66 Impala,” a largely instrumental Latin jazz outing features two of the genre’s top percussionists, Poncho Sanchez and Sheila E. “He’s holding the line there as far as Latin jazz-pop rhythm goes,” Booker states. “And Sheila has an amazing family history, with Coke Escovedo, who was with Santana, and her dad Pete. That’s the tradition that she is carrying on. She has that Escovedo thing.” Family plays a role in a couple of other tracks on Sound the Alarm. On “Watch You Sleeping,” Booker T shares the vocals with Kori Withers, daughter of Bill Withers, whose first hits Ain’t No Sunshine and Grandma’s Hands Booker produced. “When I came out to California, her dad was the first person I produced out here. I went to a 50th anniversary celebration for him in West Virginia. They had a film of his life, and Kori was singing on the film. John Burk suggested that we use her on the song. Kori is very expressive. She’s her own person, and she’s a beautiful singer.” The family tradition is also apparent with the appearance of Booker T’s 22-year-old son Ted on guitar for a gorgeous duo track, aptly titled Father Son Blues. After hearing Ted’s accomplished playing in his home’s family room and mistaking it for the work of blues hotshot Joe Bonamassa, Booker says, “I thought, ‘This is amazing – you can have something right in front of your own nose and you don’t see it!’” Flush with new ideas and young talent, Sound the Alarm is also an exciting reconnection to the Stax Records tradition, which began for Booker T as a teen, when the Bluff City label was founded out of McLemore Avenue’s Satellite Record Shop. “I found the music that I loved for the rest of my life at Satellite Records, while I was on my bike soliciting customers on my paper route,” he recalled. “I walked into the lobby of the Capitol Theater, and it had been transformed into a record store, and there was Steve Cropper playing records for me there when I was in ninth grade. That legacy is my heart and my life. That’s where I come from.” And, Booker adds, “I have music inside me, and I’m looking forward to the future. I’m very excited about making some things happen.”

Brooke Combe discovered a love for music aged just 5 years old, after getting her first toy drum kit. Eventually she added playing saxophone, trombone, guitar, bass and piano to her repertoire while at secondary school and began to find her own uniquely powerful voice along the way. Combe, influenced by the ‘90s R&B played in her mum and dad's house, as well as the Motown her grandparents would play her, developed a love of great songwriting and vocalists and lyricists with their own idiosyncrasies - such as Amy Winehouse and Fleetwood Mac - before beginning to work on her own material.

DJ/producer Franky Wah has achieved phenomenal success in a record-breaking amount of time. Not only has his 2019 release ‘Get Me High’ achieved #2 on the Beatport chart and #3 on the Radio 1 Dance chart, but he has also gained the support of key tastemakers including Pete Tong, Annie Mac, and Danny Howard along the way. Alongside this, the past 12 months have seen Franky’s track ‘Bad Man’ featured on the Elrow compilation, as well as industry heavyweight Steve Lawler selecting ‘Get Me High’ as the track to close his set at Ibiza's Iconic Amnesia. On industry support Franky explains: "You know, it was sort of global recognition the fact that Pete Tong, Danny Howard, and Annie Mac think this is good enough to go on the radio, like yeah, there's a certain amount of credibility that comes with that and a certain amount of acknowledgement that you get from other artists and fans." Inspired by dance acts from the early 00s, including Wamdue Project, Chicane and Sash, Franky began his career by producing his own mixtapes and passing them around friends before taking the plunge and investing in his own equipment. His initial foray into beat-making produced a very different sound to his current output, which over the past 5 years, has been carefully crafted into a unique sound that borrows the best melodic elements of early 00’s dance while incorporating his own signature style. "My favourite thing about making music without a doubt is seeing the hard work in the studio come to life on the dance floor and to see people dancing to my music," says Franky. "I think I've been inspired by the old style that really makes you feel good and is uplifting. It's kind of just salvaging the good parts and then putting my own twist on with a current sound." Aside from the runaway success of ‘Get Me High’, the Leeds-native has also come to the attention of global promoters, with confirmed slots at Liverpool’s Creamfields and Croatia’s Hideout festival, amongst others. While ‘Get Me High’ has certainly heightened expectations, Franky already has a string of further releases ready to go; releases he promises will explore the emotional, while also incorporating the melodic vibe he has become synonymous with.

Michael Shannon & Jason Narducy And Friends announce a 2025 U.S. tour celebrating the 40th anniversary of R.E.M.’s iconic 1985 album, Fables of the Reconstruction. After the pair’s acclaimed, sold out run honoring R.E.M.’s famed debut album Murmur, which saw the four original members of R.E.M. come together for the first time in 17 years at the tour’s Athens stop, the Fables tour will take Shannon & Narducy to nearly three times as many cities across the country, including shows in Brooklyn, Los Angeles, Seattle, Chicago, Philadelphia, and more, along with two nights in R.E.M.’s hometown of Athens, GA. Kicking off Friday, Feb. 14th at Pappy & Harriets in Pioneertown, CA, the tour will see Shannon & Narducy—alongside Jon Wurster (drums), John Stirratt (bass), Dag Juhlin (guitar), and Vijay Tellis-Nayak (keyboards)—playing Fables of the Reconstruction in full each night in addition to many other R.E.M. songs. Shannon, an actor/musician known best for his film/series/stage work, and Narducy (Bob Mould Band, Superchunk, Sunny Day Real Estate, Verböten, Split Single) have been collaborating for the last eleven years, playing entire albums by some of their favorite artists such as Neil Young, The Modern Lovers, Bob Dylan, The Smiths, and T. Rex at various Chicago clubs. In July 2023, they performed Murmur at Chicago’s Metro to a full house, with a guest appearance from R.E.M.’s own Mike Mills. Initially planned as a one-off performance to honor both the album and venue’s 40th anniversary, the show’s success inspired Shannon and Narducy to take the project on the road. “I had never done a tour before. Jason nudged me after the Murmur set in Chicago at Metro. Now it’s all I want to do,” Shannon says. “I’m happy this one is twice as long. The last one was too short. This music is beyond comprehension and I cherish every chance I get to deliver it, even second generation. R.E.M. means the world to me. And this band led by Jason is stone cold ridiculous. Even if I never walked onstage, you would get a hell of a show.” Narducy adds: “After Michael and I took the band on the road playing Murmur, we discussed possibly trying something again in 2025. It will be the 40th anniversary of Fables Of The Reconstruction so we will open with that album, in sequence. Then we will dig deep into the R.E.M. catalog to round out the performance. Each show will have unique setlists. We love celebrating the music of this great band.” Presented by DHP FAMILY. This is a 14+ event (under 16s to be accompanied by an adult)

Rival Consoles is an electronic musician from England who creates driving, experimental dance tracks primarily with analog equipment. Over the course of his career, his music has ranged from the challenging IDM of his early EPs to more overtly club-oriented electro-house releases like 2011's Kid Velo. His output has gradually become more conceptual, with works such as 2015's Howl consisting of intricate compositions focusing on a restricted amount of sounds, and 2021's Overflow focusing on technology and social media. The more ambient, minimalist Now Is (2022) blends acoustic and electronic instruments.

As a 90s baby, Jutes’ is constantly referencing and pulling inspiration from the alternative rock bands he grew up on like Nirvana, Deftones, Radiohead, Smashing Pumpkins & more. Never being able to put Jutes in a box has been a recurring theme from the beginning. It all started with Hip Hop and R&B while living in Toronto. Then after packing his bags and moving to LA to couch surf, Jutes signed to Capitol Records and started making Trap infused Pop Punk. After a couple years Jutes went back to being independent and released a Grunge Rock album titled “Ladybug.” The newest chapter in his story has taken on a dark and cinematic tone. Cross breeding the heaviness of nu metal/metal with an atmospheric hip hop infused indie feel. Jutes' most recent album Sleepyhead helped catapult him in the genre, lead by the title track that found itself exploding on both streaming and alternative radio. Sleepyhead was Jutes’ first ever song to chart on both Billboard and Mediabase (#23). After countless viral clips from a handful of live shows Jutes played at the end of the year the Sleepyhead album has now surpassed 100M global streams on Spotify alone while Dilworth has racked up over 50M streams on Spotify before the release date of the full album. His next album Dilworth comes out 12/3, which is also the final date of the last leg of his sold out Sleepyhead tour. In 2026, Jutes plans to make his European headline debut along with a number of North American festival dates. Presented by Live Nation 14+ (U16 must be accompanied by an adult)

Painted in the broadest of strokes, the stories of Alfredo Rodriguez and Pedrito Martinez may seem similar: both started life in Havana, discovered their gifts and passions for music and headed to the States, where they melded the music of their homeland with a wide variety of influences, each in his own deeply personal way. As a result of their differences, Rodriguez and Martinez share a natural chemistry that makes for a galvanizing musical experience when they come together. Their first duo outing, Duologue (due out February 1, 2019 via Mack Avenue Records), finds the pair exploring a range of moods and influences, from Cuban classics to collaborative original compositions to a number of unexpected favorites.
