Genre: Global Folk You can hear it in the gentle rasp of his wave-washed vocal soul. You can see it in his smile. For Iam Tongi, music is not just about fun –although it definitely is that. It’s about transformation. A Hawaiian-born singer-songwriter and the Season 21 champion of American Idol,the 21-year-old Tongi first saw music transform his family, then his sense of purpose ... and then every aspect of his life. And now, as he steps forward with the wind firmly at his back, another transformation begins. Marked by growth, gratitude, and feel-good island wisdom, the rising star looks to the horizon.“I know I’m supposed to be doing this, and sometimes that’s allI know,” the inspiring young talent says. “This is what I was meant for.” That clarity came early for the emerging star. First picking up a ukulele in the fifth grade, Tongi grew up in a deeply musical world filled with community gatherings, each one marked by the traditional singing and dance of Pacific Island cultures. Living in the small town of Kahuku on the northern tip of Oahu –far removed from the tourists on the opposite side of the island –he still has vivid memories of his father and grandfather, singing together in quiet harmony as they sat on the family’s front porch. Both hard-working, blue-collar stoics, they rarely even spoke –letting music do the talking instead “Everyone knew music and music was life –it’s about just having fun,” Tongi explains. “Everyone knew how, except for me. And I remember I always felt kind of left out.” That changed when Tongi began singing, too, looking for a way to get closer to his dad. Although his father’s regular workday was 16 hours long, he’d still rush home to sing with Tongi, teaching his son what he knew and hammering home the idea that music was Tongi’s path to a better life. Clearly blessed with an expressive, charismatic voice, Tongi was pushed hard and immersed in the multi-faceted skills of island reggae –plus a family record collection that featured country (Kenny Rogers), classic rock (Dr. Hook), and R&B (Luther Vandross).

Genre: Rock North Mississippi Allstars bring a deep-groove, foot-stomping blend of blues, rock, and Southern soul that feels both ancestral and electric. Rooted in the North Mississippi hill country tradition of RL Burnside, Junior Kimbrough, Otha Turner, and Fred McDowell — and shaped by the fearless musical spirit of their father, producer Jim Dickinson — brothers Luther and Cody Dickinson have spent nearly three decades turning that lineage into something fiercely their own: what they call Modern Mississippi Music. On stage, it’s raw, rhythmic, and alive — hypnotic riffs, driving drums, and extended jams that blur the line between juke joint revival and psychedelic rock show. Their sound has earned Grammy nominations and collaborations or shared stages with artists across generations and genres, including Phil Lesh, Mavis Staples, Robert Plant, John Hiatt, The Allman Brothers, The Black Crowes, Buddy Guy, Snoop Dogg, and Jon Spencer. At its core, a North Mississippi Allstars show is a celebration — of community, of groove, and of the enduring power of Southern music played loud and from the heart.

Genre: Americana, Folk, Indie With the 2014 formation of I’m With Her, singer/songwriters Sarah Jarosz, Aoife O’Donovan, and Sara Watkins introduced an essential new force into the world of folk music: a close-knit alliance of highly esteemed musicians, each graced with a deep understanding of folk tradition and unbridled passion for expanding its possibilities. Since delivering their critically lauded debut See You Around and standalone singles like “Call My Name” (winner of the 2020 Grammy for Best American Roots Song), the trio have routinely taken time out from their individual careers to dream up songs together—eventually arriving at a new album exploring themes of ancestry, lineage, and the collective human experience. On their long- awaited sophomore LP Wild and Clear and Blue, I’m With Her now bring their luminous harmonies to a soul-searching body of work about reaching into the past, navigating a chaotic present, and bravely moving forward into the unknown. In a departure from the stripped-back intimacy of See You Around—a 2018 release that turned up on best-of-the-year lists from the likes of the New York Times—Wild and Clear and Blue centers on a far more elaborate sound informed by the trio’s intensified sense of musical kinship. All multi-Grammy- winners with deep roots in the folk scene, Watkins, Jarosz, and O’Donovan first discovered their near- telepathic chemistry during an impromptu performance at the 2014 Telluride Bluegrass Festival, then co- founded I’m With Her and began touring extensively and performing at acclaimed festivals across the globe. Produced by Josh Kaufman—a member of Bonny Light Horseman and multi-instrumentalist/songwriter/arranger/producer who’s worked with Bob Weir and The National—Wild and Clear and Blue ultimately adds a bold new urgency to their delicate entangling of lived-in narrative, fable-like storytelling, and nuanced reflection on cycles of life.
