never easy – I Still Care 2027 American Tour
NEVER EASY IS A FRESH FORCE SHOEGAZE AND NU-METAL, MERGING EARLY 2000S NOSTALGIA WITH A MODERN EDGE. FORMED LESS THAN A YEAR AGO, THIS DUO BLENDS DREAMY SHOEGAZE TEXTURES WITH THE RAW ENERGY OF NU-METAL, INSPIRED BY ALTERNATIVE, VIDEO GAME, AND SKATE CULTURES. THEIR MUSIC CAPTURES THE ATMOSPHERIC HAZE OF HEAVY SHOEGAZE WHILE INJECTING IT WITH THE INTENSITY OF NU-METAL, CREATING A SOUND THAT’S BOTH NOSTALGIC AND INNOVATIVE. DESPITE THEIR SHORT TIME TOGETHER, NEVER EASY’S UNIQUE FUSION AND ENERGETIC PRESENCE QUICKLY SET THEM APART, INVITING LISTENERS TO DIVE INTO A SONIC JOURNEY WHERE THE PAST MEETS THE PRESENT.
Public Figure
Public Figure was formed in February of 2019 by bassist Dolan Delano along with some of his good friends. After a few personnel changes Public Figure curated their final lineup in February of 2024. This consisted of adding drummer John Faist and guitar player Robert (RJ) Klingsporn. These two were long time bandmates together in another Omaha based band. Lastly they found Roger Slatten via a Reddit post on r/Omaha titled “Where my singers at?”. One week before their first show with the new lineup Roger’s house (the bands practice space) was hit by and EF-4 tornado while Roger was home, nearly claiming his life. The band came together closer than ever and played the show the next week despite the odds. Since then they have had the opportunity to tour across the country in over 18 states. Sharing the stage with acts such as Fuel, Boys Like Girls, Good Terms, and Out in Front. They have no plans of slowing down and continue to tour and build their base all as far as they can reach. — CAPTURE THIS HAS CAPTURED HEARTS AND MINDS ALL OVER THE WORLD WITH THEIR RELATABLE AND AUTHENTIC LYRICS, ENCOURAGING EVERYONE TO BE THEIR BEAUTIFUL, VULNERABLE SELVES. “WE WRITE ABOUT REAL-LIFE EVENTS THAT STEM AROUND HEARTACHE, LOVE, SELF-GROWTH AND EMPOWERMENT. “MUSICALLY WE TAKE PIECES OF SONGS FROM SOME OF OUR FAVORITE ARTISTS AND TRY TO RECREATE IT WITH OUR OWN POP PUNK STYLE.” TAKING INSPIRATION FROM ARTISTS SUCH AS DEMI LOVATO, MAYDAY PARADE, PARAMORE AND EVANESCENCE THE BAND WEAVES LIFE AND EMOTION INTO THEIR TAPESTRIES OF MELODY WITH A LOVE RARELY VIEWED ANYWHERE ELSE ON THE ROCK SCENE. THE BAND HAS ALREADY MADE MONUMENTAL STRIDES IN STANDING OUT FROM THE CROWD. CRUSHING COMPETITION FROM OVER 100 SONG SUBMISSIONS VOTED BY RADIO PANELISTS AND RADIO LISTENERS, CT TOOK HOME FIRST IN THE HOMETOWN FOR THE HOLIDAYS COMPETITION HOSTED BY KTCL 93.3, MAKING THEM A “TOP ALTERNATIVE BAND IN COLORADO.” CAPTURE THIS HAS SINCE BROUGHT THEIR ENERGETIC STAGE PRESENCE TO A GROWING NUMBER OF FANS THROUGH SHARING THE STAGE WITH ARTISTS SUCH AS WET LEG, BOB MOSES, A DAY TO REMEMBER, JIMMY EAT WORLD, GIRLFRIENDS, PLAIN WHITE TEES, 3OH3!, THE SPILL CANVAS, ANDY GRAMMER, AND KNOX. LED BY POWERHOUSE VOCALIST LEAH AND WITH ALEX ON THE DRUMS, ANDREW ON THE GUITAR, AND ZACH ON THE BASS, CAPTURE THIS IS QUICKLY RISING TO BECOME ONE OF THE LEADING GROUPS OF BOTH THE DENVER PUNK SCENE AND A CENTRAL ANCHOR OF THEIR COMMUNITY. DON’T LISTEN TO THOSE WHO SAY PUNK ENDED TWO DECADES AGO; FOR THESE FOUR, THE SHOW IS JUST BEGINNING.

Guilt Trip
Historically, Manchester, UK breeds a certain toughness. As a pillar of the 19th century Industrial Revolution in Northern England, factories and warehouses line much of the city’s rain-baptized topography. A hardworking lot who shoot straight without apology, its denizens traditionally take an incredible amount of pride in where they come from. Embodying the grit and gusto of Manchester, Guilt Trip bring a blast of homegrown intensity to their hybrid of hardcore and metal. The five piece—Jay Valentine [vocals], Jak Maden [guitar], Sam Baker [guitar], Tom Aimson [drums], and Lily Kilcoyne [bass]—slide striking melodies in between throat-slitting thrashy riffs and earth-splitting breakdowns. Amassing tens of millions of streams and playing to packed crowds, they’re primed to amplify this hometown energy and pride on a global scale with a series of 2025 singles and their forthcoming debut LP for Roadrunner Records. “It’s subconscious,” agrees Jak. “Manchester is the hardest working city in the world. It’s where the ‘Manchester Bee’ comes from. Like worker bees, everyone works their asses off, and they don’t necessarily get rewarded for it. If you’re from London, you’re on the map instantly and probably know someone in the industry. When you’re from up North, nobody pays attention, so you’ve got to be legit and stick to your roots. We worked for ten years to get to where we are now.” Guilt Trip started to forge a seething signature style without comparison back in 2015. Jay and Jak cemented a lifelong bond as best friends at four-years-old when they met at reception in school. Over the years, the guys introduced one another to various favorite bands. Eventually, they welcomed fellow Manchester scene friends Tom, Sam, and Lily to the fold. To get to this point, the collective grinded the old-fashioned way one gig at a time, bulldozing their way out of sweaty basements and onto cramped club stages. They dropped the Unrelenting Force EP during 2016 followed by their 2019 full-length debut, River of Lies. The latter spawned “Thin Ice,” which reeled in 7.1 million Spotify streams and counting. Beyond sharing the stage with everyone from Sylosis to While She Sleeps, they lit up festivals, including Download, Hellfest, and more. Attracting Roadrunner Records to their corner, the musicians decamped to StudioOWZ in Clarbeston Wales with producer and engineer Adam “Nolly” Getgood [Periphery] during early 2025. Nodding to influences as diverse as Tool and Linkin Park, the sound organically progressed in the studio. Speaking of, the first single “Burn” practically incinerates upon impact. A double bass barrage charges out of the gate accented by a guttural groove riff and jarring pinch harmonics. The chaos unexpectedly subsides into the calm of tense clean guitar and a whispered chant, “Burn inside the fire.” The reprieve gives way to one last cathartic explosion. In the end, the members are just as proud of Guilt Trip as they are of Manchester. “I go to bed thinking of this band, and I wake up thinking about it,” laughs Jak. “If I bled out to death, I think my blood would leave the Guilt Trip logo on the ground.”
