Vampire Weekend

Mixing well-read indie rock with Afro-pop, ska, hip-hop, '80s pop, and more, Vampire Weekend has helped define the sound of indie music from the 2000s onward. After establishing the foundations of their lively, literate style with 2008's Vampire Weekend, they quickly grew from music blog favorites into a chart-topping act: They're the first indie group to have two consecutive albums (2010's Contra and 2013's Modern Vampires of the City, their first Grammy-winning album) enter the Billboard 200 at number one. On each of their albums, Vampire Weekend complemented their signature sound with ever-evolving sounds and ideas. They folded jam-rock and psychedelic soul into their wide-open musings on the complexity of everyday life in the 21st century on 2019's Father of the Bride and distilled their memories of a bygone New York City into the densely layered reflections of 2024's Only God Was Above Us.

Khruangbin

The title makes it clear. A La Sala (“To the Room” in Spanish), the fourth studio album by Khruangbin, is an exercise in returning in order to go further, and do so on your own terms. It extends the air of mystery and sanctity that’s key to how bassist Laura Lee Ochoa, drummer Donald “DJ” Johnson, Jr. and guitarist Mark “Marko” Speer approach music. Yet if 2020’s Mordechai, the last studio album Khruangbin made without collaborators, was a party record whose ensuing post-lockdown tour enhanced the band’s musical reputation far and wide, A La Sala is the measured morning after. It’s a gorgeously airy album made only in the company of the group’s longtime engineer Steve Christensen, with minimal overdubs. It is a porthole onto the bounties powering Khruangbin’s vision, a reimagining and refueling for the long haul ahead. A La Sala scales Khruangbin down to scale up, a creative strategy with the future in mind.

It is also a response to the unique moment Khruangbin finds itself in now: following a decade spent cultivating extraordinary music paths, beginning a year when they'll perform for more people, in more iconic spaces, staging a live show that pushes a creative envelope peculiar to them alone. (Look for the band at major festivals and venues near you.) 2024 feels like both marker and pivot, cementing Khruangbin’s stature as a commercially and critically successful group that continues to be guided by creative possibilities.

Such crossroads are familiar for iconic artists throughout the rock era — your Dylans, Stevies and Bowies, up thru turn-of-the-century Radiohead, all have navigated these straits. On A La Sala, Khruangbin also pulls exploration inward, spurning the din of the crowd’s expectations, mapping a personal direction home. The trio’s collective musical DNA and the years spent constructing it in Houston’s local-meets-global cultural stew ensure the band carries on sounding like no one but itself. A La Sala may in fact be Khruangbin’s purest distillation. A cascade of crisp melodies still emanates from Marko’s reverb-heavy electric, dancing gently around Laura Lee’s minimalist almost-dub bass triangles, while DJ’s drums serve as the tightened-up pocket and unwavering dance-floor on which all this movement takes place.

Trampled By Turtles

Trampled by Turtles are from Duluth, Minnesota, where frontman Dave Simonett initially formed the group as a side project in 2003. At the time, Simonett had lost most of his music gear, thanks to a group of enterprising car thieves who'd ransacked his vehicle while he played a show with his previous band. Left with nothing more than an acoustic guitar, he began piecing together a new band, this time taking inspiration from bluegrass, folk, and other genres that didn't rely on amplification. Simonett hadn't played any bluegrass music before, and he filled his lineup with other newcomers to the genre, including fiddler Ryan Young (who'd previously played drums in a speed metal act) and bassist Tim Saxhaug. Along with mandolinist Erik Berry and banjo player Dave Carroll, the group began carving out a fast, frenetic sound that owed as much to rock & roll as bluegrass. There crossover appeal has landed them on the #1 spot of Billboard’s Bluegrass Charts on every record they’ve released while playing marquee festivals like Coachella, ACL Fest, and Lollapalooza. Countless tours with diverse artists ranging Shakey Graves, Zach Bryan, Wilco, Caamp, Mt Joy, Willie Nelson, Avett Brothers, Lord Huron and many more have followed solidifying a loyal fanbase. Their last full length album Alpenglow was produced by Wilco’s Jeff Tweedy. 2025 began with the band releasing a cover of Bon Iver’s “From Emma” with Caamp’s Taylor Meier (aka Sumbuck) on lead vocals. A few new collaborations are set to be announced in the coming weeks.

Robert Randolph

What do classic rock heavyweights Elton John, Eric Clapton, Carlos Santana, singer-songwriters Dave Matthews, John Mayer, Leanne Rhymes, Darius Rucker, and some of the biggest arena rock acts like Ozzy Osbourne and Metallica all have in common? At some point in their career they wanted to incorporate the singing sound of the pedal steel guitar, and they all called in the same person to do it: Robert Randolph. A virtuoso on the pedal steel guitar, Robert Randolph burst onto the music scene in the early 2000’s with his fiery, passionate instrumental work and heartfelt music. It didn’t take long for Robert’s talents to get in front of numerous guitar legends, including Eric Clapton. Upon first listen, Clapton tapped Robert Randolph & the Family Band to tour the world opening for his band and include him in every iteration of the legendary Crossroads Festival. Clapton would also appear on Robert Randolph’s album “Colorblind” released in 2006 on Warner Music, a record that would also include a guest appearance from Dave Matthews.

Yoke Lore

Yoke Lore – a.k.a. Los Angeles-based multi-instrumentalist, dancer, and visual artist Adrian Galvin – has been immersed in music for his whole life. Having grown up in Katonah, NY among a highly creative, intensely spiritual family, his musical journey began with countless bands, including a role as founding member of Walk The Moon, with whom he co-wrote the chart-topping debut single, “Anna Sun.” A gifted visual artist, Galvin also explored dance and co-founded the dance company Boomerang in the mid 2010’s. In 2016, Galvin began performing solo as Yoke Lore, shaped in part by his growing interest in the banjo, that most storied instrument in the mythos of American music, the sound of deliverance set to five strings. He quickly found success with 2017’s RIAA Gold-certified “Beige,” earning millions of worldwide streams amidst ecstatic critical applause. An extended series of singles, EPs, collaborations, film scores, and international live performances (including tours alongside Bastille, Bishop Briggs, Mt. Joy, The Pains of Being Pure of Heart, and The Head and The Heart, among others) followed, all of which saw Galvin amassing over 450M worldwide streams while fusing his myriad creative passions into a singular and cohesive form of expression. Yoke Lore’s full length debut, Toward a Never Ending New Beginning, arrived at last in 2023, solidifying Galvin’s distinctive approach with thoughtful reflection and raw, unfiltered honesty, transcending songcraft and genre into an intricately hewed vision altogether his own.

The Soul Rebels

Brass sensation The Soul Rebels started with an idea - to expand upon the pop music they loved on the radio and the New Orleans brass tradition they grew up on.

The Soul Rebels built a career around an eclectic live show that harnesses the power of horns and drums in a party-like atmosphere. The eight-member collective frequently appear on major record label releases with star artists including Sony Music artist G- Eazy’s single ‘When You’re Gone” featuring Lil Wayne, Def Jam artist Dave East and Nas’ “Godfather 4”, Big Freedia and Icona Pop’s “Pipe That” and Warner Music Group artist Phony Ppl’s new album.

Neighbor

The band Neighbor began over 35 years ago - they just didn’t know it yet. Childhood neighbors Richard James (vocals, keys) and Lyle Brewer (guitar) shared fence lines and melodies as they both grew and explored their own musical paths. The quartet became complete with the addition of Dan Kelly (bass) and Dean Johnston (drums) in 2019. Their creative incubation began with a weekly residency that grew in large part by the passion of their fans, the “Neighbors”, who continue to inspire the band as the fan base has expanded across the country.

With a diverse catalog of hundreds of songs, the musical juggernaut Neighbor has become one of the most exciting and unpredictable live bands on the music scene today. Neighbor combines ambitious composition, soulful balladry, and a fearless approach to their lengthy improvisations.

Come see what's good in the Neighborhood.

Johnny Mullenax

Johnny started a Sunday Bluegrass Brunch residency at Tulsa’s famed Mercury Lounge in January 2021, and it has become a beacon for musicians and fans alike. It’s an amalgam of bluegrass standards, jam band vibes, and a showcase of musicianship from Mullenax’s regular sidemen: flatpicking champion, Thomas Trapp; Jason Boland & The Stragglers drummer, Jake Lynn; and hired gun on upright bass, Paul Wilkes. He’s regularly joined by former and current members of Jason Boland & The Stragglers, Roger Ray on dobro and Andrew Bair on keys. A host of fiddle, pedal steel, clarinet, washboard and even spoons players sit in weekly, and during the second set he brings up musician friends in the audience to step in or sing a tune of their own . Fans flock to “Team Drink”—a toast Johnny repeats during the show with the reminder, “We’re all on the same team.”  Another highlight of Brunch is when Johnny and Thomas go “hole to hole,” an improvised guitar face-off that’s more collaborative than competitive. And that’s really what Johnny’s music is all about.  

“My whole musical career, I have wanted to study music. Everyone I play with has also studied a lot of music. That’s the draw for everyone who plays in the band--we’re bringing the heat every single time.” said Mullenax. 

Just know this. If you come to a show, everyone who wants to get down is welcome and included. And you better be ready to party.

Driftwood

Music has guided Driftwood to hallowed ground many times since its founding members, Joe Kollar and Dan Forsyth, started making music as high schoolers in Joe's parents basement. Whether the Upstate New York folk rock group—which today also includes violinist Claire Byrne, bassist Joey Arcuri, and drummer Sam Fishman—are converting new fans on a hardscrabble tour across the country or playing to a devoted crowd at hero Levon Helm’s Woodstock barn, the band’s shapeshifting approach to folk music continues to break new ground. And yet in many ways Driftwood's latest work, the transformative December Last Call, finds the group coming home.

New Translations

Since their 2021 emergence, New Translations have been electrifying stages with a high-voltage fusion of synth-driven indie rock, new wave nostalgia, and alt-pop. This five-piece powerhouse has rapidly become synonymous with emotionally charged, high-impact performances, transforming every show into a cathartic, communal experience. Their undeniable live prowess has already propelled them to major stages, including Bonnaroo and a coveted 2025 tour supporting Rainbow Kitten Surprise.

Their debut album, Vacation, is a masterclass in channeling influences from ’80s post-punk, dream pop, and shoegaze into anthemic explorations of vulnerability and transformation. Featuring standout singles like “Coldest Century,” “Voided Velvet” ft. Michigander, and “Post Hang,” Vacation showcases the band’s innate ability to craft expansive soundscapes without sacrificing raw, personal storytelling. The project has already garnered significant critical acclaim, landing them on the radar of tastemakers such as Rolling Stone, American Songwriter, FLOOD, and The Tennessean.

New Translations are expertly balancing retro textures with a distinctly modern voice, staking their claim in a lane entirely their own. This artistic independence is rooted in their foundational ethos: “We want to find the outsiders and create a community of outsiders,” the band states. “We want it to the point where they’re no longer on the outside.”

Mike Powell & the Echo Sound

Mike Powell and the Echosound is a five piece band based out of Syracuse, New York. The Echosound came together organically out of a moment in time when a musical future was uncertain. It was 2020 and the world was locked down. Overnight we went from playing music in public all the time to listening to music alone all the time. I dusted off my old vinyl collection and went through it tirelessly. I had plenty of time on my hands. We fell back in love with the music that shaped us and the albums that have withstood the test of time. It was an experience that forced all of us to hit the reset button on a lot of things in life, including my musical direction. It didn't take long before I got the itch to start playing and writing again. With a focus on writing original songs, creating new sounds, and delivering high energy live performances The Echosound blends the influences of all five members to create an original take on roots inspired American music that will make you laugh, sing, shed a tear, and dance the night away.

PRESENTED BY BUFFALO MUSIC CLUB & SPORTSMEN’S AMERICANA MUSIC FOUNDATION

Get ready for the next voyage of our epic summer music program—and the performance opportunity of a lifetime.

In partnership with Jenn Brazill of the Borderland Music Festival, Jason Hall of Sportsmen’s Buffalo, and Jeff Miers of the Sportsmen’s Americana Music Foundation, Buffalo Music Club is hosting our the second season of Borderland Band Camp, a 6-day summer music program (August 18-20 and August 25-27) for middle-school and high-school teens with a BIG goal—sharing the stage with professional musicians for two stage performances, culminating in a spot on the Homespun Stage at Borderland Music + Arts Festival.

Through participation in the camp, our teaching artists aim to help students become better and more well-rounded musicians. But on a deeper level, we hope to instill in them a “big picture” view of what a career in music is actually like in real life—the discipline, the decisions, and the nuts and bolts of everything BEYOND the art. To that end, our camp activities will be focused on giving our participants the skills they need to put together a killer set for the final Borderland Festival performance—both on and off the stage.
