An artistic triumph in every sense\, the beloved\, million-selling band’s third studio album is unequivocally its finest\, building on the strength of past accomplishments while celebrating a newfound allegiance with Epitaph. \n  \n“Making this record felt like starting over\,” says Dan Marsala\, frontman for the St. Louis-reared quintet. “We’re like a brand new band. You can hear it in these songs\, we’re excited again. I think we’ve really stepped it up on this record.” \n  \nIf Story of the Year’s career achievements – from 2003’s smash debut Page Avenue to headlining massive festivals such as the Van’s Warped Tour and Taste of Chaos\, to world tours with the likes of My Chemical Romance\, Linkin Park and The Used – have been abundant\, they’ve also been the result of the esteemed modern rock outfit’s tireless work ethic and willingness to push boundaries musically. Approaching the follow-up to 2005’s In the Wake of Determination with a burst of creative freedom\, Story of the Year – which also counts guitarists Ryan Phillips and Philip Sneed\, bassist Adam Russell and drummer Josh Wills – elevates The Black Swan with these same key convictions. \n  \nLeaps and bounds beyond the standards of what an alt-rock anthem can be in 2008\, the remarkably powerful\, hopeful and deeply personal “Tell Me” is undeniable. “It opens with a fucking gnarly\, classic riff that hits you right between the eyes\,” Ryan enthuses. \n  \nFerocious and thought-provoking\, The Black Swan finds Story of the Year in the rare position of being one of the biggest bands in the world\, while being left to its own devices to evolve and flourish creatively. \n  \n“I hope people really read into the lyrics and respect the fact that we don’t sing about lollipops and gummi-bears\,” Ryan explains. “Musically\, we’ve grown so much. We have some very unique\, timeless\, face melting guitar riffs and solos that have come to define our sound\, without compromising the idea of a classic song.” URL:https://whatsupdallas.co/event/story-of-the-year-silverstein/ LOCATION:The Bomb Factory\, 2713 Canton Street\, Dallas\, TX\, 75226\, United States CATEGORIES:Live Music ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/webp:https://whatsupdallas.co/wp-content/uploads/2026/04/2206df37fc2dc624d156a866633701ad.webp END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Chicago:20260801T220000 DTEND;TZID=America/Chicago:20260801T220000 DTSTAMP:20260518T052937 CREATED:20260512T183043Z LAST-MODIFIED:20260512T183043Z UID:10010671-1785621600-1785621600@whatsupdallas.co SUMMARY:Jo Dee Messina DESCRIPTION:We look forward to welcoming Jo Dee Messina to Billy Bob’s Texas on Saturday\, August 1\, 2026. We offer a one-of-a-kind experience in the heart of the Fort Worth Stockyards!

After signing with Secret Road Music Publishing at 17\, he quickly gained traction with early placements like “Up\, Up & Away” in the film Five Feet Apart and later earned a Grammy nomination for co-writing John Legend’s song “Conversations in the Dark.” Peña has since released three EPs\, numerous singles\, and his 2024 debut album Ever-Shifting\, Continual Blossoming\, amassing over a billion Spotify streams to date and selling out tours across the US\, UK\, and Europe. He’s collaborated with artists across various genres\, from working with KYGO and Julia Michels on 2024’s “Louder\,” to joining country-rock singer/songwriter Sam Barber for the duet “Better Than the Floor.” Peña’s work radiates a contagious warmth\, and his latest Columbia Records release When I Change My Mind I Don’t Mean It (2025) marks his most ambitious project yet. The 14-track album is a soul-searching collection written in a remote California cabin\, steeped in the immersive indie-folk that’s made him one of the most magnetic voices to emerge in recent years. He is currently on the road supporting Tom Odell in Europe/UK and just wrapped a tour with one of his earliest influences\, The Lumineers\, on their 20-date Automatic World Tour. “It’s been so cool to watch the music connect with people live\, and to hear them sing with me\,” he says. “I like to say music is a remedy for reality\, because no matter what you’re going through — whether it’s happy or sad\, good or bad — you’re not alone in that.” URL:https://whatsupdallas.co/event/chance-peu00f1a/ LOCATION:The Bomb Factory\, 2713 Canton Street\, Dallas\, TX\, 75226\, United States CATEGORIES:Live Music ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/webp:https://whatsupdallas.co/wp-content/uploads/2026/02/79ad501462a117324710f21945e80fd7.webp END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Chicago:20260801T190000 DTEND;TZID=America/Chicago:20260801T190000 DTSTAMP:20260518T052937 CREATED:20260512T160006Z LAST-MODIFIED:20260512T160006Z UID:10010649-1785610800-1785610800@whatsupdallas.co SUMMARY:DON TRIP W/SPECIAL GUEST: THA LANDLORD DESCRIPTION: URL:https://whatsupdallas.co/event/don-trip-w-special-guest-tha-landlord/ LOCATION:Trees Dallas\, 2709 Elm Street\, Dallas\, TX\, 75226\, United States CATEGORIES:Live Music ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/webp:https://whatsupdallas.co/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/82e9dbbc62e13793590fd19ff0295721.webp END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Chicago:20260801T190000 DTEND;TZID=America/Chicago:20260801T190000 DTSTAMP:20260518T052937 CREATED:20260512T151437Z LAST-MODIFIED:20260512T153003Z UID:10010610-1785610800-1785610800@whatsupdallas.co SUMMARY:Hard Night's Day with special guest Big Mike Richardson DESCRIPTION:Hard Night’s Day \nA Hard Night’s Day is an all Beatles Tribute Band from Dallas TX that originated in March of  1994.

The band name “DOES” is derived from the word for a female deer (doe). Their raw energy quickly caught the attention of major labels in Tokyo\, leading to their major debut with Ki/oon Records (Sony Music) in 2006.\n2007 – 2010: Breaking into the Mainstream The band skyrocketed to fame with the single “Shura\,” used as the ending theme for the TV anime “Gintama\,” debuting at No. 9 on the Oricon charts. Their 2008 single “Donten” climbed to No. 3\, becoming a massive hit with over 200\,000 digital downloads—a rare feat for a rock band at the time. In 2009\, they appeared in the blockbuster film Crows Zero II (directed by Takashi Miike)\, where they performed on screen. Director Miike praised the band\, saying\, “DOES is a band of beautiful\, stripped-down honesty.” Their 2010 smash hit “Bakuchi Dancer” sold over 100\,000 physical copies and remained in the Top 10 for three consecutive weeks.\n2011 – 2016: Global Recognition and Hiatus During this period\, DOES continued to dominate the anime scene\, providing themes for Space Brothers (“Yumemiru Sekai”) and NARUTO Shippuden (“Guren”). They celebrated their 10th anniversary with sold-out tours and the release of their self-titled 6th album DOES. In 2016\, following the release of their 10th-anniversary single “KNOW KNOW KNOW” and the 7th album INNOCENCE\, the band announced an indefinite hiatus after a final show at Akasaka BLITZ.\n2020 – 2023: The Resurrection and Global Expansion On January 1\, 2020\, DOES officially resumed activities.

In addition to receiving two GRAMMY® nominations\, he’s been recognized by the BRIT Awards\, Billboard Music Awards\, iHeart Radio Music Awards\, People’s Choice Awards\, Americana Honors & Awards\, and more. \nKahan’s critically acclaimed breakthrough 2022 album Stick Season became a cultural phenomenon. Over the span of two years\, the 4x Platinum album and its 8x Platinum title track reached number one across North America\, the UK\, and Europe\, becoming the fourth best-selling album of 2024 and remaining in the Top 15 more than three years after its release. In 2023 following the release of Stick Season\, Kahan launched his mental health non-profit\, The Busyhead Project\, which has raised over $5.5 million to date in support of its mission to increase awareness around the importance of mental health. \nNow\, Kahan enters his next artistic era with The Great Divide\, his fourth studio album\, due April 24th via Mercury Records. Written in the wake of his rapid rise to global fame\, the album finds Kahan at his most honest\, reflective\, and emotionally resonant—grappling with success\, identity\, family\, distance\, and the unspoken truths that separate people from one another. Produced by acclaimed producer and Stick Season collaborator Gabe Simon (Dua Lipa\, Lana Del Rey\, Koe Wetzel) alongside GRAMMY®-winning producer Aaron Dessner (Taylor Swift\, Bon Iver)\, The Great Divide builds on Kahan’s signature storytelling while pushing his sound into more expansive\, anthemic\, and sonically adventurous territory. In support of the new album\, Kahan will embark on The Great Divide Tour this summer\, headlining stadiums across North America for his biggest tour to date. At the heart of Noah Kahan’s music remains the same guiding purpose that first drew fans in: honest storytelling\, shared vulnerability\, and songs that help listeners feel understood.
