Neumos 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.

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.

The group treats the stage like a family gathering, inviting the crowd into a welcoming community built on kindness, belonging, and friendship. Led by singer and songwriter Sammy Rae and sharpened by years of touring, they weave classic rock, folk, and funk with hints of soul and jazz, pairing tight musicianship with expressive vocals. Their rise includes the EPs The Good Life and Let’s Throw a Party, sold out shows across North America, the UK, and Europe, and festival appearances around the world, including Bonnaroo’s main stage, Sound on Sound, and All Things Go. Following the 2024 debut album Something For Everybody, they continue to expand their reach and are already working on their next record. This event is all ages to enter, with 21 and over to drink.

An evening of uplifting house music at Chop Suey in Seattle. Lineup updates are posted weekly on Instagram, and tickets are sold at the door.
