SUMMARY:Bob Moses and Cannons: Afterglow Tour
DESCRIPTION:Oxis KCRW Festival \nHypnotic nights and electric energy await when the two electro-pop groups come to town. \nWith one foot in the electronic music scene and another in the world of indie rock\, Bob Moses’ music is deeply affecting and perfectly constructed. Billboard said of their 2025 album BLINK\, “All of the smoothness and sophistication we’ve long loved about the duo’s output is present…with Tom Howie’s rich vocals giving emotional depth to the lush productions.” All that and they’re capable of powering mega-parties like EDC and Coachella. Their sets at those fests and on their own global tours have turned heads and moved hips for over a decade. Influential electronic music website Resident Advisor twice called them the best live act of the year\, their track “Love Brand New” made them Alternative radio chart-toppers\, and in 2017 the Grammys made them award winners. At the Bowl\, they’ll make you dance and so much more. \nCannons’ own neon-lit hybrid of electro-pop\, disco\, and synthwave has the sleek\, anything-could-happen vibes of a night out in the big city—complete with a little bit of danger. Their hit “Fire for You” popped up in American Horror Story on its way to going gold and topping the Billboard Alternative chart. Acclaimed by Billboard\, The Hollywood Reporter\, and Consequence\, Cannons have lit up stages at Coachella\, Lollapalooza\, Outside Lands\, and beyond\, and they’ll be returning in 2026 with new music\, marking the start of their next chapter. This is emotionally powerful futuristic music—imagine the end credits for a cyberpunk rom-com and you’re almost there.

SUMMARY:Goldie Boutilier—Moved from Pacific Electric
DESCRIPTION:Goldie Boutilier is a Canadian singer-songwriter. Raised on the music of Tammy Wynette and Dolly Parton\, Goldie’s music is noted for its cinematic quality and exploration of tragic romance\, glamour\, and melancholia. Goldie made her first performance at age five using her family’s junkyard business as a rehearsal space and signed her first record deal with Interscope Records at the age of 21. \nA revolving door of labels and aliases later\, Goldie returned to her hometown roots and re-established herself as an alt-country star\, with a nod to 1950s and 1960s Americana. She started back at zero with just her name and her stories\, gaining more than 11 million streams on streaming platforms in just two years as an independent artist. Her new era of music has earned praise from the likes of Zane Lowe and Elton John\, booked for iconic festivals such as Lollapalooza and Austin City Limits\, and she was even hand-picked for an opening slot by Orville Peck for his North American tour. \nThe Cowboy Gangster Politician (2022) and Emerald Year (2023) EPs contain references to her small-town upbringing on Cape Breton Island\, Nova Scotia\, and her sincere experiences as a young ingenue in Hollywood. \nHer upcoming EP\, The Actress\, promises to be her best release yet. The writing process sent her on a journey of integrity\, purity\, vulnerability\, and a healing return to herself. These are Goldie Boutilier’s true tales of the power struggles to be in control of her own career\, being exploited by The Man\, discovering how much she could sacrifice for her dreams\, and finding the strength to keep pushing forward\, despite it all. \n-With Syd Taylor\, whose debut album ‘After the Fact’ is out now! \n \n

SUMMARY:Alice Smith
DESCRIPTION:ALICE SMITH IN CONCERT: \nWhen it comes to the legendary voices of soul and R&B\, singer-songwriter [do we want a slash or hyphen? Doesn’t matter to me\, just want to make sure we have a consistent rule] Alice Smith is right up there with the best of them. Ms. Smith cuts a commanding figure on stage\, and her formidable presence is only intensified by the broad\, powerful swath [right word? Are you trying to emphasize the range? I guess that’s covered with broad… How about “by her powerful\, far-ranging voice” or something?] of her voice. Whether she’s covering Cee Lo Green’s “Fool for You” or mesmerizing with originals like “Baby\,” fans can expect big\, beautiful things from Smith on her 2014 tour. \nBACKGROUND SNAPSHOT: \nRaised splitting time between Washington\, D.C. and a Georgia farm\, Smith grew up immersed in gospel\, soul\, and R&B. An active singer while studying at Fordham University in New York\, she made her album debut in 2006 with For Lovers\, Dreamers\, & Me\, a nod to the line sung by Kermit in the Muppets’ beloved 1979 song “Rainbow Connection.” The album was a hit with critics\, landing on Billboard’s Heatseekers Albums chart and sparking extensive touring. After taking some time off to raise her daughter and relocate to Los Angeles\, Smith made a triumphant return with 2013’s She\, a genre-spanning collection of songs that will feature heavily on her highly anticipated 2014 tour.
