Also led by Camper Van Beethoven's frontman David Lowery, Cracker will be joining a number of CVB's summer U.S dates, along with a string of their own shows. Cracker has been described as a lot of things over the years: alt-rock, Americana, insurgent-country, and have even had the terms punk and classic-rock thrown at them. But more than anything Cracker are survivors. Cofounders Lowery and Johnny Hickman have been at it for over 20 years now - amassing nine studio albums (their most recent, 2009's critically acclaimed Sunrise In The Land Of Milk And Honey), multiple gold records, thousands of live performances, hit songs ("Low," "Euro-Trash Girl" and "Get Off This" to name just a few) that are still in current radio rotation around the globe, and a worldwide fan base - that despite the major sea-changes within the music industry - continues to grow each year. Along with longtime drummer Frank Funaro (since 1998's Gentleman's Blues) and bassistSal Maida (since 2006's Greenland), this uniquely American band has no intentions of slowing down.

Newly signed to punk/alternative incubator Epitaph Records, they’re actively working on the much-anticipated follow-up to their 2022 just in case the world ends DELUXE EP.
The song arrives as the first taste of Jai Wolf’s new installment of artistry. The captivating music video, directed by director Andrew Donoho (The Strokes, Joji, Janelle Monae), features an intricately choreographed dance performance. It was created with AI and ranges in visual aesthetics from oil paintings to futuristic art.
Rising to prominence in the early 2010’s, Candyland gained notoriety as one of the promising acts in dance music. Their bassdrenched remixes of Skrillex’s ‘Make It Bun Dem’ and Bingo Player’s ‘Rattle’ garnered over 5 million streams on Soundcloud and saw the duo become the first act to win back-to-back Beatport remix contests.
Produced by her long-time collaborator/now-fiancé Josh Horine, these five songs find the artist dipping into pop, rock, folk, and electronic music. Her previous single “You’re So Pretty,” followed the introductory first track and video from Mothership which perfectly set the tone for the whole project - aptly titled, “Control Freak.”
