Mayday Parade may have been at it for two decades now, but Sad doesn’t feel like a band stuck in the past, it feels like they’ve nailed the art of turning nostalgia into something that really hits.

This show wasn’t just a battle of bands, it was a celebration of a generation's soundtrack, and Leeds showed up, sang loud, and reminded everyone that these songs still hit just as hard in 2025 as they did back in the day.

We talked with Will Foulke about Charleston Blues, his ambitious hometown project that reimagines the blues as both a tribute to its legends and a journey into new sonic territory.

We caught up with multimedia artist and musician Annika Zee to discuss Emerald Spy, her bold new album that fuses 90s nostalgia with experimental electronic soundscapes and sharp reflections on identity, technology, and the future.
