The Snozzberries
Psychedelic Prog-Fusion Rock from Asheville NC
The Snozzberries are an undeniable force of raw musical power, laser-focused on pushing boundaries. Described by Rolling Stone as a "jubilant rock act," their huge sound is a sonic voyage of hi-voltage psychedelia, progressive rock, and deep fried funk.
The Snozzberries self-titled album from Fall 2024 was praised by Prog Magazine as "pushing the envelope in energy, chaos and breadth."
On a hot streak of creativity, two new singles - Durt Nap and Just After 2 - were released in early 2025, the first tracks from their upcoming live-studio record. A rising star in the worlds of psych, jam and prog, The Snozzberries tour nationally have performed at renowned events like Hulaween, Summer Camp Music Festival, Sweetwater 420 Festival, Warren Haynes Xmas Jam By Day, Shakori Hills Grassroots Festival and more.
"The jubilant rock act is an explosion of vibrant tones and textures" -Rolling Stone

“Their expansive sound, penchant for experimentation and incredible shows combine a psychedelic southern blues-rock aesthetic with danceable electronics… Continually exhilarating.” –David Dye, NPR’s World Cafe
Austin’s The Bright Light Social Hour are widely recognized as the essence of Texas psych rock – no one better captures or defies the genre, twisting southern blues, hypnotic grooves, and pulsing synths into sweaty, ecstatic journeys that linger long after the lights go up.
From retro-futurist masterpieces like Space Is Still the Place and Emergency Leisure to composing for HBO, MTV, Nintendo, and the award-winning theme for Sneaky Pete at Bryan Cranston’s request, their music drifts between cosmic psychedelia and late-night dancefloor heat, weaving fat basslines, ecstatic percussion, and three-part harmonies that sting and soothe at once.
Live, they’re a full-body experience: part revival, part warehouse party, part cosmic trip – music that hits the chest, drops the booty and tears the fabric of the understood.
“A lush, space-western odyssey.” – Consequence of Sound
“Surreal, dreamlike… take me right to bed vocals.” – The Denver Post
“A touch of grunge, a little grime, and lots of spacey, psychedelic mind-melting sounds.” – Leafly
“Transportive… like you're floating off to a galaxy far, far away.” – Vice

Way Gone, the stirring new mini-album from Birmingham AL singer-songwriter-guitarist, Will Stewart, doesn’t waste any time: In just 23 minutes, Stewart’s follow-up to 2018’s critically-acclaimed County Seat rips through six keenly-detailed portraits of restless, desperate souls with white line ferocity – as if he’s on a mission to chronicle the tales of these disparate nighthawks before the sun comes up. Despite the rush, Way Gone somehow stops to smell the roses via revealing lyrics and softer tunes that belie deep, opposing tensions. This is most evident on Way Gone’s opening track – and first single – “Southern Raphael”: A late-night tale of dive bar flirtation propelled by taut rhythms and skittery guitars. The atmosphere is gradually thickened by subtle synths that rise and converge with the guitars until they burst into crescendo – detonated by a lyrical twist that’s either deeply romantic or utterly terrifying. Possibly both. It’s like Cormac McCarthy writing lyrics for The Feelies – which makes it both an outlier and a perfect way to kick off this gripping, novella-like collection of songs. The remainder of Way Gone is no less compelling. “River Child” and “Stowaway” are prime examples of Stewart’s ease in imbuing country-folk tropes with unexpected textures. Though it coheres, Way Gone is not a concept album. Born in fits and starts, it took several attempts to bring these songs to life. Stewart and a crew of frequent collaborators recorded these songs in studios across the southeast. Some of the songs needed more time to develop and grow. Others were lacking the right energy. Eventually, it all came back together in Birmingham – the bulk the album was tracked at Ol Elegante with Les Nuby, along with two tracks recorded at Communicating Vessels with Brad Timko.
Stewart’s compositional diversity is understandable – he’s a busy guy: In addition to his solo work, he collaborates with Janet Simpson (Delicate Cutters, Teen Getaway) as Timber, and performs in her solo band (and she in his). He also contributed to Sarah Lee Langford’s excellent 2019 album, Two-Hearted Rounder, plays guitar with Terry Ohms, and has a new band (with a forthcoming album) called The Blips. Still, Way Gone proves that Stewart has a vision worth chasing – and that he’s an artist on the rise.

Rock Eupora began in black and white. Clayton Waller was living a perfectly ordinary life — job, apartment, friends, his little dog Daisy — and a catalog of songs stretching back to college. Four albums in, everything seemed steady… until the music slipped away.
One afternoon, mid-hum, a thunderclap split the sky. A tornado tore through his monochrome world, lifting him and Daisy into the unknown. When the storm finally dropped them back to earth, Clayton stepped outside expecting the end.
Instead, he found technicolor. Brilliant skies. Electric grass. A road stretching toward something bigger. A chrome motorcycle roared up beside him. “This isn’t Oz,” the rider said. “It’s your life. Let’s ride.”
Rock Eupora lives in that moment — the leap from ordinary to vivid, from routine to reckless possibility. It’s about chasing the tune you almost lost, finding color where there was none, and riding toward whatever comes next.
