White Denim and Johanna Samuels

Austin's White Denim, led by James Petralli and Steve Terebecki, blends indie rock with psychedelic, punk, and jazz influences. Known for frenetic energy, albums like 2013's Corsicana Lemonade (produced by Wilco's Jeff Tweedy) marked their U.S. and U.K. chart debut. Key works include Stiff, reaching the U.K. Top 20, and the quick-turnaround pandemic project, World as a Waiting Room. Regular collaborators include Ethan Johns and latest addition, Raze Regal, infusing jazzy elements into recent releases.
