Mari Froes is a Brazilian singer-songwriter whose music flows from the deepest roots of Brazilian Popular Music weaving together rhythm, emotion, and a distinctly contemporary voice. Her artistry is defined by an authentic relationship with Brazilian cultural identity, translated into sound with rare clarity and intention. She began her recording career in 2019 with the singles Moa and Rosa e Laranja, followed by her debut EP Nebulosa in 2020, which surpassed 20 million streams and established her as one of Brazils most compelling emerging voices. Her recent singles Vaitimbora and Figa de Guin marked a turning point in her international reach, charting strongly across multiple territories and earning Platinum certifications in France, Belgium, Portugal, and Switzerland a testament to the universal resonance of her sound. The releases cemented her position not only as a leading voice in contemporary Brazilian music, but as a genuine force in the global market. That momentum translated powerfully to the stage. Across 2025 and 2026, Mari performed more than 80 dates throughout Europe, with the majority of venues selling out an extraordinary achievement for a Brazilian artist at this stage of her international career. The tour confirmed a devoted and rapidly growing fanbase far beyond Brazils borders. Today, Mari commands a fanbase of over 9.5 million across platforms including more than 5 million monthly listeners on Spotify, 1.4 million followers on Instagram, 2 million on TikTok, and over 1 million subscribers on YouTube. In June 2026, she releases her debut album on Sony Music, marking a new chapter in an already remarkable trajectory. That September and October, she takes the stage across the United States and Canada on her first North American tour bringing her music to new audiences in what promises to be the next defining chapter of an exceptional career.

21+ / www.carolspub.comCountry storyteller Laci Kaye Booth has made her name on raw, honest songs that blend the tragic swoon of dream-pop with the lush songcraft that flows out of her home base of Nashville. In 2026, freshly signed to Lost Highway Records, she emerges renewed, grounded in a healthy mindset and career set to bloom like never before --- but it hasn't always been that way. Inspired by her and others' journeys in and out of lover's hell, Laci has poured her many lessons learned into her cinematic third album, Love Ain't For The Faint Of Heart. Produced by Ben West, the LP is a rewarding ride through diverse sounds, harsh reckonings, and serious growth --- a moment of actualization on a rich trip thus far. Laci grew up in smalltown Livingston, TX, about 75 miles north of Houston. Mom bought her first acoustic guitar and though her dad, country artist Jody Booth, wasn't around much, they bonded over a shared love of legends like Merle and Patsy. Following in his footsteps, she moved to Music City and, after 2021's more straightforward self-titled debut, Laci found her footing. The Loneliest Girl In The World, released on Geffen in 2024, was an authentic expansion of her sound that won her sound that won her time on the road with Ella Langley, Parker McCollum, Megan Moroney, Marcus King Band, and more, not to mention her Grand Ole Opry debut. Last year, as the new songs crept into her setlist, Laci felt two things: a sense of catharsis as she let out old ghosts, and certitude that she's in the right place now. This event is 21 and over.

Sunny War has done it again. Her brand new album, Armageddon in a Summer Dress, is yet another anarcho-punk-roots masterpiece in her already deep-and-wide catalog of superlative recordings. - The Bluegrass Situation This highly anticipated follow-up proves that the breakthrough was no fluke... Sunnys skies are not always blue, but her approach remains riveting and distinctive on her finest release yet. - American Songwriter
London-born Arlo Parks won the Mercury Music Prize for her debut 2021 album Collapsed in Sunbeams, won Breakthrough Artist at the 2021 Brit Awards, and received two Grammy and Ivor Novello nominations. She was coined the voice of her generation. Her follow up My Soft Machine featured the likes of Phoebe Bridges and saw her continue to tour globally. 2025 saw her become the youngest ever appointed UNICEF Ambassador as she continues her humanitarian work. 2026 sees the release of her much anticipated third album Ambiguous Desire. Referencing everything from the queer hedonism of NYCs Paradise Garage to the moody nocturnal British beats of The Streets and Burial, the glittering synth catharsis of LCD Soundsystem, and rooted house grooves of Theo Parrish, Ambiguous Desire is Parks at her most confident and experimental. A soundtrack to unguarded self-expression, it is a life-affirming new piece of work from one of musics most irrepressible voices.
