Son Volt and Trap Karaoke

Alt-country pioneer Jay Farrar, who spearheaded Uncle Tupelo and later led Son Volt, recorded three landmark ’90s albums and returned with a new lineup in 2004. Son Volt’s 10th studio album, Electro Melodier, blends folk, country, blues, soul and rock.

Trap Karaoke, founded in New York by Jason Mowatt in 2015, revolutionized live entertainment. It transformed traditional karaoke into a high-energy, user-generated concert experience centered on trap, hip-hop, and R&B music. Known for fostering community and self-expression, it features fan performances and has seen appearances from artists like 2 Chainz and Yo Gotti. The event has garnered recognition, including a "Litty Award".
