Will Paquin used to write in isolation — songs came together behind closed doors, in bedrooms, dorm rooms, backseats. Even the years since he cracked the door open in 2020 with “Chandelier” - a woozy, glitch-pop oddity that caught fire online that has since gone gold - have only sporadically been punctuated by the release of a handful of standalone singles and a couple of EPs. “Sometimes I keep things a secret just to make them feel like they’re only mine,” he says.But Hahaha — his debut full-length album, out this September and still staunchly self-released — is the sound of Paquin breaking out of the bedroom. It’s loud, raw, chaotic, and full of life. And there’s no better demonstration of this than the title track. “Hahaha” is a high-voltage jolt of pure release expressly built to ignite a crowd from the very first clang of the guitar. “I wanted a song I could shout and that could be screamed right back at me,” Paquin says.The shift from solitude to communion runs throughout the record. Much of it was written while Paquin was on the road navigating a breakup, mingling that inherent sadness with the feeling of being on stage night after night embraced by the crowd “I was on tour, surrounded by live, loud music, and so there’s also this energy there. It's almost like a sarcastic ‘hahaha,’ with tears in my eyes”.The album plays with that multifaceted tumult. Take opener “We Really Done It This Time,” a straight-ahead rocker that sounds like the beginning of a panic attack. “I felt a little lost, not sure what to, or who to blame,” he says of the breakup that fuels the track. Whereas “Orangutan” keeps it playful. “I had this funny dream about an orangutan and decided to compare this relationship with this ape swinging by me in the street, going far away — and just wishing it well.”Things get tense and spare with “Roll the Dice,” which is about “counting up my mistakes and seeing where I went wrong,” before we clatter into “I Work So Hard,” a song Paquin originally started in middle school, bearing the mark of the psych rock bands he loved in those formative years, but recontextualized to his current life. “It's almost like when you get out of a relationship and you're on that grind set, and you're trying to make all these changes to be the best version of yourself.”“Our World Is Falling Apart,” another song with origins dating back a decade. “I had the format for the rest of the song, but I didn't have the maturity or skillset to flesh things out back then,” he says. Now, it’s a fitting closer — proof that even the oldest ideas can evolve when you’re finally ready to let them out.Much of the album feels this way, like a time capsule — a collection of ideas and sounds that Paquin has been quietly nurturing for years. As he began shaping the record, he found himself drawn back to the music that first sparked his imagination — the layered, melodic pull of The Beatles, the gritty urgency of The Oh Sees and Ty Segall. In the studio, these early influences blended with the more experimental textures he immersed himself in during the recording process, listening to The Magic by Deerhoof, Can’s boundary-pushing catalog, and Transmissions From the Satellite Heart by The Flaming Lips on repeat. The result is a record that doesn't just reference his past but reanimates it, layering old obsessions with new discoveries in a sound that's entirely his own.Now, for the first time, these diverse reference points come together in a cohesive whole, shaped by the passage of time and Paquin’s current perspective. “This album is kind of like re-centering what I actually like and what I want to put out to the world,” he explains.Remaining independent and free from label constraints, he took full creative control. He produced the album alongside childhood friend and longtime collaborator William Levin. The finishing touches came from Nathan Boddy (James Blake, Geordie Greep, Nilufer Yanya) who handled the mix, while Mike Bozzi (Kendrick Lamar, SZA, Tyler, the Creator) mastered the final product.Hahaha is a celebration of shared energy, of chaos, of the kind of laughter that erupts when you're fully alive in the moment. It’s a guitar-forward, psych-laced, garage-rock catharsis to be played out to the masses. Those closed bedroom doors have swung open.

Micajah makes the most beguiling and bewitching country-rock in Texas. Their debut album, The Ballroom on Fire, quickly gained acclaim and a co-sign from Houston fuzzlords Shallowater. Nathan Stevens’ vocal range, climbing from Jeff Buckley-esque coos to bass growls, is joined by Midwest film composer&nbsp;Justin Graff for this intimate and captivating tour.

Babytooth is Minneapolis-based singer/songwriter Isabel Zacharias, with a rotating cast of friends bringing the songs to life. Elaborating on Pacific Northwest indie of the '90s, the songs skate between noisy melodic rock and twinkly folk experiments.&nbsp;Spiraling between the realms of dreampop and shoegaze, SSAANN&nbsp;builds upon&nbsp;expansive reverb, hypnotic echoes, and vast guitar textures. The Milwaukee 4-piece just released their first single, 'Drone', in May 2025. They plan to release their next single in late summer, followed by their debut album.

Since 2018, GA-20 has been at the forefront of a traditional Blues revival. The dynamic throwback trio have long been disciples of the place where traditional Blues, Country and Rock ‘n’ Roll intersect. “We make records that we would want to listen to,” says guitarist Matt Stubbs. “It’s our take on the song-based traditional electric Blues we love.” Stubbs, along with guitarist &amp; vocalist Cody Nilsen and drummer Josh Kiggans, strive to bring traditional Blues to the front lines of the modern roots music scene. “The focus for us has always been on the story, the melody, and on creating a mood,” Stubbs continues. “Traditional Country and Soul have all had these massive recent revivals. We want to be part of doing that for traditional Blues music.”GA-20 has drawn inspiration for their old-school sounds from the music they love by artists such as Otis Rush, J.B. Lenoir, Howlin’ Wolf, Junior Wells, Hound Dog Taylor, Earl Hooker, Johnny ‘Guitar’ Watson and so many others. Performing with what feels like reckless abandon, GA-20 brings a timeless immediacy to every song they play with a sound that continues to grow and evolve. The band uses vintage instruments and amps to produce their authentic sound, and favours traditional recording techniques, like recording live off the floor together in one room, to help recreate that energy and sonic connection.In their short history, GA-20 have been 3x #1 Billboard Blues chart toppers, 4x Boston Music Award winners for Best Blues Act, and have received multiple wins and nominations at the Blues Music Awards, Blues Blast Awards, New England Blues Awards, and have ascended streaming and radio charts at home and internationally. <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="http://Medium.com">Medium.com</a> has appropriately declared, “This is the kind of music that travels through time while taking from the era where it was born and turning it into something fresh. Dirty and raw…timeless and modern.”
