KRCL Presents: Josh Ritter at The State Room on Oct 3

Prolific singer, songwriter and author Josh Ritter is headed to The State Room on Thursday, October 3 for a full night of songs. Tickets go on sale Friday, August 9 from www.thestateroompresents.com"With his deep, expressive voice, keen wit, and deft poetic sense, Josh Ritter has earned a reputation as one of the most reliable and incisive singer/songwriters in folk and Americana music. Emerging in 1999 with his eponymous debut album, Ritter hit his stride in 2007 with the release of The Historical Conquests of Josh Ritter, which introduced elements of rock, country, and blues into the mix. What followed was a string of acclaimed outings like Beast in Its Tracks (2013), Gathering (2017), and Fever Breaks (2019) that continued to push boundaries, further bolstering Ritter's legacy as a songsmith. After a 2020 rarities EP, he returned in 2023 with Spectral Lines, his 11th album."

KRCL Presents: The Heavy Heavy at The State Room on Aug 13

The Heavy Heavy are a 5 piece retro inspired rock band, making the music the sixties forgot - with bombastic soul and peaceful goals. The project was founded in 2019 in the small West Midlands town of Malvern by William Turner and Georgie Fuller. The latter is a thespian and talented singer who performed at the Montreux Jazz Festival as a teenager, and the former is a multi-instrumentalist who spent his formative years in various psychedelic/surf rock bands. The duo's shared love for artists like the Band, Peter Green-era Fleetwood Mac, Delaney & Bonnie, and Fleet Foxes led them to the London flat where they wrote the songs comprising their debut EP, Life and Life Only. An early version of the EP, released in 2020, caught the attention of U.S. label ATO Records, which enthusiastically added the fledgling group to its roster. Featuring the streaming hits "Go Down River" and "Miles and Miles," the ATO-issued version of the EP appeared in 2022 and yielded an expanded edition the following year. Now operating as a quintet, the Heavy Heavy began plying their sonic wares on the road, hitting the festival circuit (Bonnaroo, Boston Calling, Newport Folk Festival) and appearing on Jimmy Kimmel Live!, The Late Show with Stephen Colbert, and CBS Saturday Morning. These performances and appearances, along with the release of the single "Happiness" in early 2024, set the stage for the group's debut long-player, One of a Kind, which arrived later that year.
