The Montvales
AGE RESTRICTION: Only Ages 21+ can purchase tickets for this show. NO REFUNDS/EXCHANGES for anyone underage who purchases or attempts to use these tickets. Doors: 7:00 PM Show: 7:30 PM The Montvales Born and raised in Knoxville, TN, Sally Buice and Molly Rochelson of The Montvales spent much of their formative years busking amidst the Elvis impersonators and musical saw players of the town’s Market Square, honing their uniquely boisterous harmonies and perfecting the art of people-watching. Some fifteen years later, the two are still at it-maintaining their study of the robust chaos of the commons as they tour the country playing their descriptive, textured songs on the self-described “feral outskirts of country music.” Their lyrics tackle everything from heartbreak to gentrification to abortion rights, pulling audiences in alongside their well-worn harmonies and nearly telepathic musical connection. In 2020, the Montvales recorded their first album Heartbreak Summer Camp in a living room. The stripped-down, DIY folksongs span their young adulthood, beginning in their teens and taking them through their mid 20s. Then, seeking a more polished, full-band sound, the duo recorded their next album Born Strangers at Sean Sullivan’s Tractor Shed Studio in Goodlettsville, TN, recruiting Nashville stalwart Mike Eli LoPinto (guitarist for Chris Stapleton, producer of Emily Nenni’s On the Ranch) to produce it. The record garnered them a dedicated cult following and has been featured by outlets such as Holler, American Songwriter, Twangville, and more. The Montvales have gone on to share the stage with bands like Willy Tea Taylor and the Fellership, The Local Honeys, James McMurtry, and Mama’s Broke, and have appeared at festivals such as Healing Appalachia and the Old Quarter Songwriter Festival. In 2025 they signed with Free Dirt Records to release the single “Loud and Clear”, with a hint at more new music to come.

Dev Lemons
AGE RESTRICTION: All Ages Show: 7:30PM Dev Lemons has built a career by refusing to fit neatly into a single lane. Equal parts alt-pop artist, songwriter, comedian, and internet personality, she has cultivated a fiercely loyal audience through her sharp wit, fearless authenticity, and genre-blurring music that balances vulnerability with humor. Originally gaining attention through her viral online content, Dev quickly proved she was far more than a creator making music, she’s an artist whose songwriting explores the awkward, chaotic, and deeply human moments that define modern relationships and self-discovery. Her music effortlessly shifts between infectious pop hooks, alternative production, indie textures, and emotionally raw lyricism, creating a sound that’s as unpredictable as it is instantly recognizable. Across multiple releases, Dev has amassed millions of streams while continuing to grow an engaged fanbase that connects with her brutally honest storytelling and unmistakable personality. Whether she’s writing about heartbreak, anxiety, dating disasters, or finding confidence in the absurd, her songs feel like conversations with a close friend who isn’t afraid to say exactly what everyone’s thinking. Beyond music, Dev has become known for her comedic voice across social media, where her sketches and commentary have reached millions of viewers. Rather than separating her artistry from her personality, she’s built a world where both coexist naturally—earning a reputation as one of the most distinctive emerging voices in alternative pop. With new music continuing to push her songwriting and production into bold new territory, Dev Lemons is proving that authenticity, humor, and emotional honesty aren’t mutually exclusive, they’re exactly what makes her stand out
Thomas Dollbaum
AGE RESTRICTION: Only Ages 21+ can purchase tickets for this show. NO REFUNDS/EXCHANGES for anyone underage who purchases or attempts to use these tickets. Doors: 7:00 PM Show: 7:30 PM Thomas Dollbaum The realest-deal storyteller in indie-rock today is the Tampa-born, New Orleans-based singer/songwriter Thomas Dollbaum, and Birds of Paradise is his most powerful and dynamic work yet. Following up his critically acclaimed Wellswood (Big Legal Mess, 2022) and Drive All Night EP (Dear Life Records, 2025), Birds of Paradise is a goodbye letter to lost loved ones and former selves. These songs find Dollbaum searching for acceptance in the transient in-between places: Florida’s pine flatwoods, backroads leading to 1-95, where birds fly across the water. And even though the ghosts of his alt-county predecessors Townes and Molina are definitely present, on Birds of Paradise, Dollbaum emerges from their shadows–waving to the past, sounding all the more like himself. This moment–this album–is long overdue. Both of Dollbaum’s previous releases had taken way too long to record, due to circumstances out of his control, leaving him frustrated. And after having been away from his home for eight years, the place he had left was no longer the place he remembered, and the unchanging of the natural world felt like a constant he wanted to write about. With a sense of immediacy, he wrote Birds of Paradise in three months. Called up the musicians he trusted and admired the most–Nick Corson, Josh Halper, and Jake Lenderman–and asked them to meet him at Dial Back Sound in Water Valley, Mississippi with producer/engineer Clay Jones. They learned and tracked the album in four days, capturing lightning in a bottle, a sonic revelation Dollbaum’s writing has always been waiting for. But it ain’t just grown men trying to move on in Birds of Paradise. “King’s Landing” playfully frolics from the point of view of little-kid-Dollbaum growing up near a little private airport. And he’s got big dreams of flying him and his folks outta there. “I wish I could take us from this town,” he sings. But knowing this dream is “probably a waste of time,” he suggests going home and watching “Judge Joe Brown/ And reruns of Cops episodes in our home town.” “I hope we catch one where the bad guy gets away,” Dollbaum offers some optimism, “Maybe he’ll steal a small plane/ Fly off to the everglades/ Build us a home out of water and snakes.” When there’s nothing else, survival and imagination are the same thing. With the help of Lenderman, Halper, Corson, and Jones, Birds of Paradise is Dollbaum’s hard-won breakthrough. Alive and echoing like the poems and short stories you can’t shake: coyotes howl, birds fly south, kids chase rabbits through the sugar cane, and cigarettes are four dollars a pack. Birds of Paradise reminds us where we come from–the things inside ourselves we’ve forgotten–we just needed Dollbaum to show us. Here’s how to look back without fear or shame. Here’s authenticity

Pitchfork described inglish as “a heartfelt exploration of the ups and downs of being part of the world’s fastest-growing floating tribe—part global citizen, part cultural refugee,” and named the album to its list of Best Jazz and Experimental Music of 2021.
