For the better part of two decades\, the award-winning songwriter has brought his audience together night after night\, turning his shows into celebrations of community\, collaboration\, and contemporary American roots music. Strangers No More\, the eighth album from Drew Holcomb & The Neighbors\, celebrates that sense of togetherness synthesized in the #1 Americana Song\, “Find Your People.” \nFollowing her 8-year sting as a member of her husband’s band\, Ellie Holcomb’s solo debut\, As Sure As The Sun\, landed her a Top 10 hit and a GMA Dove Award for “New Artist of the Year.” In 2021\, she released her third full-length solo project\, CANYON\, to much acclaim\, earning her a second Top 10 radio single with the song\, “I Will Carry You.” The 4x Dove Award winner is also a best-selling author\, having written three children’s books and a devotional selling a combined 500\,000 copies. \nTogether\, the Holcombs have amassed over 1 billion combined streams\, have toured with the likes of Willie Nelson and Lauren Daigle\, and have been featured on dozens of TV shows. \nThe Memory Bank Tour is in support of their first-ever full-length duo record. An Evening with Drew and Ellie Holcomb is a special engagement event\, allowing the Holcombs to collaborate once again.

Inspired by the life of Eddie Derhak\, we strive to offer connection\, compassion\, and hope to individuals of all ages—especially young adults—through advocacy\, education\, and community outreach. By encouraging simple acts of kindness\, like the power of a hug\, we aim to create a culture where no one struggles alone and everyone feels seen\, heard\, and supported. Our mission is to raise awareness\, fund mental health initiatives\, and help prevent suicide—one hug\, one heart\, one life at a time. \nmoe. \nThirty-five years ago\, a posse of University of Buffalo-based musician-friends got together to play music. Out of freewheeling sessions bursting with bold\, genre-defying creativity and tongue-in-cheek humor\, a 6-headed mon-ster named moe. emerged. \nDecades later\, moe.’s tireless work ethic\, DIY resourcefulness\, infectious songwriting\, and highly-engaged fanbase—the Famoe.ly—have enabled the sextet to earn a successful career. Yet\, the guys have never rested on their lau-rels as “jam band pioneers.” They average 100 shows per year\, and regularly release vital new music\, including the band’s latest album\, Circle of Giants\n(ATO)\, its 13th release. \nCircle of Giants was almost all tracked when bassist/vocalist Rob Derhak’s 25-year-old son died tragically\, but it’s no downer. Visceral and vulnerable\, the 10-collection confronts life’s challenges with grace\, humor\, hard-fought wisdom\, and jaw-dropping musicality. Creatively-invigorated by the addition\nof keyboardist Nate Wilson to the full-time lineup\, moe. has created a mile- stone album while processing an unfathomable loss. \nmoe. is a brotherhood\, featuring Derhak\, Schnier\, guitarist/vocalist Chuck Garvey\, drummer Vinnie Amico\, percussionist/vibraphonist Jim Loughlin\, and keyboardist Nate Wilson. The six-piece band came up in the primordial pouch of the early jam band scene\, alongside Blues Traveler\, Spin Doctors\,\nWidespread Panic\, and Phish. \nLauded by American Songwriter for its “mind-bending musicality\,” moe. is beloved for its sonic adventurousness\, unbridled showmanship\, and its witty and insightful songwriting. NYS Music has said: “moe. has redefined what’s possible within the genre\, leaving a lasting impact and challenging listeners to rethink the limits of musical expression.” \nSince releasing its foundational album\, Fatboy\, in 1992\, moe. has issued a vast and varied series of now-classic records. Select studio album highlights include 1998’s Tin Cans & Car Tires; 2004’s Wormwood; 2007’s The Conch (which reached #1 on Billboard’s “Heatseekers” chart); and 2012’s critically- acclaimed What Happened To The La Las.

To learn more\, visit GrantHalliburton.org \n     Formed in 2016\, Sammy Rae &  the Friends are a jazz-pop band known for their high-energy live shows. Many have likened their style to that of another New York based band\, Lake Street Dive. Their latest album of “Songs We Wish We Wrote”\, features innovative covers of some of their….and our….favorite songs. \n     Chuck Prophet has been a mainstay on the SF Bay Area music scene for over 3 decades\, with over a dozen solo albums. His recent album\, “Wake the Dead\,” features a band of musical all-stars performing Cumbia-influenced tunes\, including “First Came the Thunder”\, which was selected by KXT-FM listeners as one of the top 15 songs of 2025. \n     The combination of these two bands will provide a party-like atmosphere for Eric Nadel’s 75th birthday.  The Rangers’ Hall of Fame broadcaster hosts the benefit\, which includes a live and silent auction. \n     Sponsor tables and suites are available through Grant Halliburton Foundation. Visit granthalliburton.org/ericnadel to learn more or to purchase a sponsorship\, or email julia@granthalliburton.org.  \n \nSammy Rae & The Friends \nThe mantra of the Friends? \nGo put a smile on somebody’s face\, go tell somebody they’ve got a place in this world\, go tell somebody you wanna be friends with them. \nFor as much as Sammy Rae & The Friends may be a band\, this collective of dreamers and artists considers themselves a family first. That all-for-one and one-for-all camaraderie ignites their unforgettable and can’t-miss live shows\, which serve as a catharsis for both the musicians and their fervent audience. Fronted by singer/songwriter Sammy Rae and honed through years of touring\, the group is capable of flourishing in any spotlight thanks to its signature blend of palpable chemistry\, deft virtuosity\, and vocal fireworks. \nTheir sound\, which has attracted new fans by the thousands in the past few years\, is a unique mélange of Sammy’s influences: classic rock\, folk and funk and sprinkled with soul and jazz. Rae has been building toward this moment since moving to NYC from Connecticut in her early 20s. Finding herself without a built-in peer group\, she simply built it herself: the literal and proverbial Friends. When she started playing shows\, she made sure the audience was part of the family too. Everything that’s happened since – from EP’s “The Good Life” (2018) and “Let’s Throw a Party” (2021) to sold-out shows in major markets and secondary markets alike across North American and the UK & Europe\, to high-profile festival sets around the world\, including Bonnaroo’s main stage\, Sound on Sound\, All Things Go\, and more – has been based on friends telling friends. \nWith the release of their debut album “Something For Everybody” in 2024\, Sammy Rae & The Friends have come to represent more than just a band: they are a full-on movement being adopted with refreshingly diverse clientele.  The band is currently working on their next album.  \nChuck Prophet \nChuck Prophet’s streak of more than a dozen critically acclaimed solo records stretches all the way back to 1990\, when the California native first shifted focus from his tenure with pioneering neo-psych band Green on Red to working under his own name. Since then\, his songs have appeared in a slew of films and television shows\, and his work has been covered by Bruce Springsteen\, Solomon Burke\, Heart\, and a host of others. Rolling Stone dubbed him a “streetwise city kid with an eye for the country\,” while Uncut proclaimed him a “renaissance-rocker\,” and NPR declared that “no one can turn tales from the outer limits into catchy songs quite like Prophet does.” URL:https://whatsupdallas.co/event/eric-nadels-birthday-benefit-featuring-sammy-rae-the-friends-with-special-guest-chuck-prophet/ LOCATION:Longhorn Ballroom\, 216 Corinth Street\, Dallas\, TX\, 75207\, United States CATEGORIES:Live Music ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/webp:https://whatsupdallas.co/wp-content/uploads/2026/02/e92bb5a533ea12b856eca9a888c205fe.webp END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Chicago:20260514T193000 DTEND;TZID=America/Chicago:20260514T193000 DTSTAMP:20260429T030157 CREATED:20260320T025810Z LAST-MODIFIED:20260320T025810Z UID:10009851-1778787000-1778787000@whatsupdallas.co SUMMARY:2026 WHIB 1ST U.S. TOUR [GO UP:OUR ERA] in Dallas DESCRIPTION: WHIB’s first-ever U.S. tour \nWHIB’s relentless journey now unfolds on their very first stage to prove it all.

As a teenager from East Tennessee\, his devotion to music led him to hit the road\, where he lived in his car and played for anyone who would listen. That took him all the way to a major record deal when he was only nineteen. When that ended\, he refused to give up and became an indie artist\, relying solely on the music and his undeniable gift for crafting relatable songs that led to a devoted fan base he calls the Bonnevilles. He appreciates them so much that he includes them in his artist name. “They’re the reason I’m able to make music\,” he says. \n2024 saw Josiah and the Bonnevilles reaching new heights\, completing a headlining tour of thirty-three sold-out dates followed by a slew of international stops that proved his global following. He has become known for raw emotion and a profound connection to his audience. This newfound attention has led to much anticipation for his new album — and As Is lives up to the expectations. \n“I knew I had a responsibility to try to become a better writer\, a better artist\,” he says. “One day that feels like a blessing\, and the next it feels pretty intimidating.” Instead of reproducing his popular sound from the self produced “Endurance”\, he decided to expand it. “I think it would have been hard to keep my excitement to go out on the road with another kind of acoustic record.” \nHis tenth studio album finds him going more electric than ever before\, even as he unplugs from the digital world. “I feel like a grizzled old veteran at this point\,” he says\, even though he is only thirty-six. “I’m desiring quiet\, a work space away from the internet…I felt like it was important to pull back this last year and try to understand what’s on my heart.” What he found there resulted in an album focusing on joy\, sorrow\, and working-class issues that feel very of the moment in a time when so many Americans are struggling to make ends meet. \nLeming comes by his empathy for working people honestly. He’s one of nine siblings\, born and raised in Morristown\, Tennessee\, right in the heart of Appalachia. He taught himself piano when he was eight and was writing songs by thirteen. As a child he was intently aware of his community and intensely proud of his people\, something he thinks about even more in these trying times. “I look at my I look at my folks in East Tennessee and very few of them seem to be winning in this new world\,” Leming says. “Being a regular person\, working\, trying your best. I think that’s something to be proud of.” \nHis records have always been intensely personal. But on As Is he wanted to step away from being the main character and instead use vignettes to express essential truths he has learned. “I want anyone to be able to put it on and not think about me when they’re listening. I want them to be in the emotion.” Because of this he made a conscious choice to not include himself on the album cover. \nLeming chose ten tracks from ninety-six songs he has written over the last year and a half. As Is features the most co-writes he has ever recorded. “I love writing alone\, but I wanted to bring in some trusted partners on this one\,” he says. The resulting list features some of the most acclaimed songwriters working today. There’s Nashville powerhouse Natalie Hemby\, a two-time Grammy winner who has written for everyone from Lady Gaga to Miranda Lambert; Joel Little\, a Grammy winner who has written with Lorde\, Taylor Swift\, Noah Kahan\, and many others; Scott Harris\, best known for work he’s produced or written for artists such as Shawn Mendes\, Dua Lipa\, and The Chainsmokers; and others. \nTo help him find the sound he hoped to achieve\, Leming brought in Konrad Snyder as a co-producer. Snyder has engineered or produced some of the best work to come out of Nashville in the last decade\, including tracks by Kacey Musgraves\, Stephen Sanchez\, and Noah Kahan. “It was an amazing partnership with Konrad\,” Leming says. “I never had to touch a computer or a piece of gear; he’s a whiz with all that stuff. I’m usually so hands-on with my stuff\, switching between setting up\, tracking and editing but on this record I got to just perform the songs.” \nThe songs on As Is feature Leming’s vivid sense of place\, precise yet poetic lyrics\, and  emotion that is always longingly expressed by his vulnerable vocals. This collection is more up-tempo than most of his work\, which is something Leming and Snyder strived to make happen on about half the songs. “I was thinking a lot about the energy\, of having a couple songs that can amp up people at live shows\,” he says. \nThis power is especially apparent on songs like opening track “Good Boy”\, which boils toward a rousing breakdown\, “Carolina Heart”\, a tune Leming calls “less existential and my attempt at a feel-good song\,“ and “Going Gone”\, a nostalgic track about the passage of time. “Mountain Girl” is a foot-tapping harmonica-led tribute to Appalachian women. There’s the jaunty rock of “Redline”\, and a song called “One Day at a Time” that is sure to resonate with anyone who has ever struggled with addiction\, depression\, or a lack of confidence. Leming’s fans often cite his storytelling abilities as one reason they love his work\, and that takes center stage on the title track\, a spoken-word song. “Where It Starts” is a meditation on how heartache can lead to great art. The first single is the powerful “Hell Without the Flames\,” the album’s darkest track that also showcases some of the best lyrics and vocals of his career. \nThey all make for a collection of songs that take the listener full circle. “There’s all these kinds of love stories\, and it walks through many variations on heartbreak\, ultimately landing on home\, acceptance and overcoming that hurt. I just want people to be able to see themselves in the songs.” \nThat’s what it’s all about for Leming. “The only goal for me is to make something real\, and honest\, and that can get them through the day\,” he says. “I gave everything I have for this album. I laid it all on the table\, which is what I always want to do.”  \nAs Is proves to be all of that\, and more\, a milestone for one of our most authentic and resonant artists working today.

At the helm of his own Strange Music proudly based in Kansas City\, MO since 2000\, he has personally notched four platinum singles\, eleven gold singles\, and two gold albums. As a whole\, the Strange Music catalog also houses 23 RIAA gold and platinum records. The company’s Kansas City headquarters consists of six buildings: Strange Music (label offices)\, Strangeland (recording studios\, soundstage)\, Strange World (merchandise manufacturing plant)\, Strange Box (vehicles)\, Strange Carwash\, and Strange Works (construction company). Representing the underground\, Tech is practically “a regular” on the Forbes “Cash Kings” list. Beyond gracing the cover of XXL and the stage of ABC’s Jimmy Kimmel Live!\, he wound up on the playlist of none other than Sir Elton John and performing to 1 million-plus at the parade for the Kansas City Chiefs’ Super Bowl victory. He’s the only artist (on this planet) who has collaborated with Eminem\, Tupac\, Lil Wayne\, and Kendrick Lamar as well as The Doors\, Slipknot\, System of a Down\, Deftones\, Jelly Roll\, and MGK. He holds down the record for “most Top 10 albums on the Billboard Rap Chart” and staked a spot in the Top 5 of the Billboard 200 four times. On top of a thriving self-sufficient merchandising empire\, he notably joined forces with Kansas City’s own Boulevard Brewery for his craft beer Bou Lou. After three decades in the game\, the rapper landed “the biggest hit of his career” with 2021’s “Face Off” featuring Joey Cool\, King Iso\, and none other than megastar Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson. In unprecedented fashion\, he ignited TikTok\, generated a quarter-of-a-billion streams\, and incited a frenzy from Variety\, People\, TMZ\, NY Post\, Today\, and Entertainment Weekly. Tech N9ne continued his journey in 2023 with the acclaimed BLISS and more to come. \n  URL:https://whatsupdallas.co/event/tech-n9ne-e-40/ 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/2026/03/61f6c99be77ae765eb5e437aa2032e8b.webp END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Chicago:20260514T210000 DTEND;TZID=America/Chicago:20260514T210000 DTSTAMP:20260429T030157 CREATED:20260319T232555Z LAST-MODIFIED:20260319T232555Z UID:10009763-1778792400-1778792400@whatsupdallas.co SUMMARY:Huser Brothers DESCRIPTION:Huser Brothers\n\n\nWe look forward to welcoming Huser Brothers to Billy Bob’s Texas on Thursday\, May 14\, 2026. We offer a one-of-a-kind experience in the heart of the Fort Worth Stockyards!

Their ascension has been remarkable\, going from headlining 200 to 1500+ cap venues in a blink of an eye through powerful songs that have profoundly related with fans across the globe. \n-Danny Wimmer Presents \nCitizen Soldier just released their new LP\, “ICARUS” on November 13th\, 2024. The record explores the \nband’s self-help themes through massive rock anthems\, begging to be played in arenas. Segura mused; \n“ICARUS is a representation of intense frustration. Touring the country\,! heard stories everyday of people feeling trapped. Trapped in their job\, a dysfunctional relationship\, addiction\, personal trauma\, sometimes in their own mistakes or maladaptive behaviors. There are too many voices in the world telling people what to do-but what people crave is validation\, and to feel seen. This album does just that.” \nThe 11-track collection features pop-sensible hooks\, bombastic guitar riffage\, and gut-wrenching moments\, especially in tracks like Good Old Days and Feels Like A Funeral\, the latter painting a picture of a mother battling post-partum depression. The intended message is resonating\, as the album has already achieved over 40 million streams. \nThe band will be playing a main stage slot at Sonic Temple music festival in Columbus\, Ohio in May of 2025\, and headlinina “The Semicolon Tour” throahout markets in the midwest and east coast. \nInstagram \nFacebook \nSpotify \nWebsite URL:https://whatsupdallas.co/event/citizen-soldier-adalitas-way-new-medicine/ LOCATION:Trees Dallas\, 2709 Elm Street\, Dallas\, TX\, 75226\, United States CATEGORIES:Live Music ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/webp:https://whatsupdallas.co/wp-content/uploads/2026/02/01d970c481c56c6fc433126d99296720.webp END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Chicago:20260515T180000 DTEND;TZID=America/Chicago:20260515T180000 DTSTAMP:20260429T030157 CREATED:20260411T185157Z LAST-MODIFIED:20260411T185157Z UID:10010359-1778868000-1778868000@whatsupdallas.co SUMMARY:Jet Set!
