Anna Smyrk, a singer and songwriter from Naarm (Melbourne, Australia), delivers anthemic indie songs that fuse candid lyrics with dynamic, hook-forward arrangements.

The release debuted at number 20 on US specialty radio and number 20 on the ARIA Australian albums chart, with multiple plays on BBC Radio.

Seattle’s Shelby Natasha is an alt-folk songwriter and guzheng player, weaving R&B-influenced Chinese folk with modern production. Inspired by an upbringing between China and the Pacific Northwest, her sound pairs ethereal vocals, the guzheng, and lo-fi textures for a mix that is both atmospheric and groove driven. She has appeared at Oregon Country Fair, NAMM, Any Patch of Grass, Belltown Bloom, Imagine Festival, Portland Folk Festival, and Northwest Folklife, and has supported East Forest, Simrit, and Yaima.

See details▸Zolita
Neumos, 925 E Pike St, SeattleNeumos presents a stop on The Hell’s Belles Tour featuring Zolita at Neumos in Seattle. The multi-hyphenate artist brings a cinematic approach to pop, blending her NYU Tisch filmmaking background with music to craft vivid, story-driven visuals that have fueled major streaming milestones, a sold-out headline run, and a devoted audience drawn to the characters she creates. From her early viral debut and the Somebody I F*cked Once trilogy to the new Queen of Hearts era, visual storytelling remains at the heart of her work. Her forthcoming album, Queen of Hearts, celebrates queer love, joy, and authenticity while also turning inward to examine past relationships with new candor. The first single, Bloodstream, launches this chapter alongside a short film she wrote, produced, directed, and edited, inspired by the romance of former Miss Universe contestants Mariana Varela and Fabiola Valentín. The production features a female, non-binary, and LGBTQIA+ led team and co-stars Kyra Green of Love Island Games, hinting at Zolita’s feature-length ambitions. The new songs span buoyant anthems and raw confessionals. All Girls Go To Heaven champions living openly without fear, and Small Town Scandal channels her love of country and bluegrass with a fresh twist. Other tracks confront the pain of loving someone struggling with addiction, the uncertainty of relationships, and the searing reckoning captured in Grown Up. Strengthened by a deeply connected, primarily queer fan community, Zolita leans into vulnerability and purpose throughout this era. A portion of proceeds from Zolita’s fall tour will go to TAC and their work supporting LGBTQ youth across the country. This event welcomes all ages, with 21 and over for bar access. Tickets are nonrefundable except in the case of cancellation, support acts may change, and orders that exceed the published ticket limit are subject to cancellation.

See details▸Kelsey Lu
Neumos, 925 E Pike St, Seattle · verified Oct 9Neumos hosts Kelsey Lu in Seattle for the So Help Me God Tour, spotlighting new work that follows Blood, the baroque, cello-centered debut that first revealed a voice moving between the sacred and the sensual. The new album spans ten tracks co-produced with Jack Antonoff and Yves Rothman and mixed by Oli Jacobs, with contributions from Sampha, Kamasi Washington, Lady Jess and Kim Gordon. Instead of easy comfort, it embraces a clear reckoning, charting devotion, desire, grief and transcendence across meticulous, cinematic sound that shifts from drum and bass pulses and distorted guitars to choral swells and shadowed electronics. Studio time encouraged playful experimentation, a spark that carries into pieces like Reaper, Cutting Off the Head of a Ghost and Running To Pain. Visual inspiration draws on Caravaggio’s stark light and dark, while songs such as Only the Lonely and Portrait of a Lady On Fire explore slow-burning longing in vivid detail. Lu’s path to this chapter includes the loss of a longtime cello, a lockdown ritual of filming dawn and dusk for HYDROHARMONIA, and years of travel and spiritual practice that turned isolation into both teacher and scar. Beyond the album, Lu composes for film and collaborates across disciplines, with work on the documentaries Daughters and Earth Mama, creative partnerships with Yves Tumor, Jamie xx, Debbie Harry and Skrillex, and projects with Nan Goldin, Wu Tsang and Jacolby Satterwhite, along with collaborations with Gucci, Miu Miu and Bottega Veneta. The project also extends to a sequence of short films, including a collaboration with BAFTA-winning director Savanah Leaf starring Garance Marillier with photography by Yuma Al-Arashi. All ages are admitted. A valid ID is required to access bar areas.

After years of honing his songs in bars, dance halls, and rodeos around his home state, he formed the Tanner Laws Band in 2024. The group pairs jazz-schooled bass and drums from the University of Montana with a software engineer on electric guitar and pedal steel, a standout fiddler, and Laws at the mic with a voice shaped by open country. Their sound leans into country and folk storytelling, with nods to Alan Jackson, Keith Whitley, and the Turnpike Troubadours, putting pedal steel and fiddle up front, a dance-ready groove underneath, and lyrics grounded in lived experience. In their debut year they earned the title of Missoula’s Best New Band. They quickly took to the road, opening for artists such as the Turnpike Troubadours, Clint Black, Colby Acuff, Gary Allan, Rodney Atkins, Corey Kent, Braxton Keith, Dustin Lynch, and Sam Barber. They have also received Northwest CMA honors for Songwriter of the Year, Male Vocalist of the Year, and Favorite Local Solo Artist, and have performed at the Miles City Bucking Horse Sale, the Calgary Stampede, numerous rodeos and county fairs, and listening rooms that stretch from Montana to Atlanta. Cody Bartels also performs.
