SUMMARY:Tori Amos: In Times of Dragons Tour
DESCRIPTION:Tori Amos today announces her forthcoming new studio album In Times of Dragons\, which will be released in spring 2026 alongside an extensive European tour. Since her debut album Little Earthquakes in 1992\, the North Carolina-born singer\, pianist and songwriter has over the years created a body of work defined by fearless storytelling and a singular musical voice. \nIn Times of Dragons\, Amos’ 18th album\, continues this tradition\, presenting a powerful journey of resilience and awakening where the pursuit of freedom meets forces that seek to control and silence. \n“In Times of Dragons is a metaphorical story about the fight for Democracy over Tyranny\, reflecting the current abhorrent non accidental burning down of democracy in real time by the ‘Dictator believing Lizard Demons’ in their usurpation of America.”

SUMMARY:Modest Mouse
DESCRIPTION:Having recently completed another successful run with Pixies and Cat Power\, Modest Mouse continues to prove themselves to be one of the most consistent live acts today. Modest Mouse released their highly anticipated new album\, The Golden Casket\, on June 25\, 2021 via Epic Records. The Golden Casket heralds another new chapter in the GRAMMY® Award-nominated multi platinum band’s unpredictable evolution. Produced with Dave Sardy and Jacknife Lee in Los Angeles and in Modest Mouse’s studio in Portland\, the album hovers in the liminal space between raw punk power and experimental studio science\, frontman Isaac Brock explores themes ranging from the degradation of our psychic landscapes and invisible technology\, to fatherhood. The twelve tracks behave like amorphous organisms\, undergoing dramatic mutations and mood swings that speak to the chronic tug-of-war between hope and despair that plays out in Brock’s head.

SUMMARY:Lounj Acts
DESCRIPTION:The Wicked Hop/Jackalope Lounj are proud to present Lounj Acts: A live music series presenting the best in local and regional bands in an intimate setting every Thursday. All ages welcome\, never a cover charge! \nThursday August 13th\, 7-9 p.m. presenting Mea Jima \nMea Jima is the artistic persona of brothers Matt and Jim Meixner. They have been playing music together since their teenage years. Despite having releases with other projects they had never released a record with each other until 2021. When the time came\, the brothers decided to form the electronic music duo called Mea Jima. Mea Jima is an electronic duo that likes to experiment with the possibilities of sound. \nRipe with synthesizers and electronic percussion\, Mea Jima loves to layer different sounds and use devices to change the sonic quality of those layered sounds. They use these layered sounds as building block for their more experimental pieces. But\, there are also those pieces that use the standard song form. They strive to strike a balance between the ambient\, experimental\, and pop/rock realms. Mea Jima takes influences not only from the sounds they generate\, but from artists they find interesting.
