The Funhouse at Mr. Smalls
Millvale,
PA
The mind-spinning indie-rock/folk/art of Jeffrey Lewis & The Voltage developed when songwriter and comic book artist Jeffrey Lewis began recording homemade cassettes in New York City in 1998; his critically acclaimed, unusual and word-dense songs lead to Jeffrey signing to Rough Trade Records in 2001 (record label of The Smiths, The Strokes, Belle & Sebastian, etc.), and the project evolved into a live touring cult sensation around the world. Creating a brilliant style of scuzzy urban indie-rock-folk, like a 21st Century mash-up of Sonic Youth, Pete Seeger and R. Crumb, Jeffrey’s band has played countless gigs all over the world, including playing as the opening act for icons like the Mountain Goats, Daniel Johnston, Stephen Malkmus & The Jicks, Dinosaur Jr, The Fall, Dr. Dog, Pulp, Roky Erickson, The Vaselines, and more.

The Back Alley
Special Guest: PosterChild
Saturday, March 28, 2026
Doors: 7:00 pm / Show: 8:00 pm
The Funhouse at Mr. Smalls
Millvale,
PA
The Back Alley stemmed from the solo recording project of lead singer Ralph Porter who wrote songs such as ‘Your Love’ and ‘Flower Girl’ before the band was formed in 2022. Now a 5-piece independent rock band based in Chicago, Illinois, the band is a hybrid of Ax and The Hatchetmen’s members Hunter Olshefke (Bass), and Sal Defilippis (Guitar), who have joined forces with Jaden Cone (Guitar), Ralph Porter (Vocals), and Ben Kremer (Drums) to perform and record original music while still paying homage to their singers past discography by performing completely new takes on his songs at their live shows.
The bands debut EP ‘Live From Picture-Minded Studio’ marked a major transition for the band as they begin to move from the “bedroom pop” vibes of Porter’s solo work into a more guitar-heavy indie rock approach with songs such as “Gump”, “Lightning” while still including the new takes on his original music as part of the EP.
The band has started to find their own rhythm within their new songs ‘Brand New’ and ‘Grey Skies’ leading the way.
After carving their path in the Midwest scene in 2023 and 2024 with new music and shows at iconic venues such as Lincoln Hall and Park West, the band is ready to take on 2025.
The band’s latest single ‘Shaking Off The Snow’ will be released on March 20th as they kick off their first tour together.

Millvale,
PA
TICKETS ON-SALE FRIDAY 12/12 @ 10AM!
Mike O’Hehir, the man at the heart of Coyote Island, is an old soul, but the music he’s crafted with his band and growing collection of diverse collaborators is as fresh as anything going today. From the breezy and bouncy mix of Caribbean beats and contemporary pop production that blasted “Here Before” into the post-pandemic public consciousness to the meditative and moody organ that makes “Shine through the Darkness” a glimmering beacon for lost souls, his songs are mood enhancements and attitude adjustments — perfect for a generation of music lovers looking for a path forward.
Now, to follow the breakout success of their 2023 album “Holy Illusion,” Coyote Island have released a string of singles highlighted by “Trust the Path,” featuring the Hip Abduction, in anticipation of the release of the full-length “Shadow Magic,” coming August 15.
Like Khruangbin or Father John Misty, Vampire Weekend or Talking Heads, they take authentic traditions and spin them into the future, bringing you along with them as they follow their own path, trusting that they’ll figure everything out along the way. Or won’t. It’s that sort of curiosity about the world that turns clubs into tent revivals, festivals into mystical experiences.

November Blue
Special Guests: Zoe Jean Fowler, Kevin Daniel
Friday, April 03, 2026
Doors: 7:00 pm / Show: 8:00 pm
The Funhouse at Mr. Smalls
Millvale,
PA
November Blue blends harmony-rich 60s/70s-inspired rock with modern country and roots energy, delivering powerful performances and emotionally compelling songwriting that resonate across generations. Originally from Pennsylvania and now based in Nashville, the band’s recent rise earned national recognition when Rolling Stone named them one of its “10 New Artists to Watch.” From working with Grammy Award–winning producer Michael Omartian to playing the Ryman Auditorium, November Blue continues to build momentum with new releases, unforgettable live shows, and a sound that feels both timeless and boldly current.
Known for her honest songwriting and genre-blending sound, Zoe Jean Fowler captivates audiences both online and onstage. With over 600,000 streams on her own music and over half a million streams from songwriting cuts, Zoe is carving out her place as a standout independent country artist and songwriter. In the summer of 2025, released a 15 track deluxe album, Cry Baby (Deluxe), which received 28 editorial playlist placements, was featured on Tidal’s Country Rising: Best of 2024, and premiered on WSM Radio at The Grand Ole Opry. Zoe has recently been featured on CMT and has opened for Kix Brooks, Randy Houser, Flatland Cavalry, and Sam Barber.
A dynamic performer, playing 100-150 shows per year, Kevin Daniel’s music has been described as “radio ready with enough darkness creeping in around the edges to appeal to fans of Jason Isbell & Tyler Childers.” On his two early EPs, his 2019 debut album Things I Don’t See, and his 2021 follow-up, Been Here Before, Daniel showcases a masterful ability as a songwriter to seamlessly incorporate bits of rock, soul, country, blues, roots and Appalachia into thoughtful examination of pain and awakenings, visceral and spiritual. A big-voiced crooner with a heart of gold, Kevin strikes a chord with “his raw and soulful, Chris Stapleton-esque timbre.” [Music Connection] Kevin is currently working on his next album with Grammy-nominated producer Bobby Holland at Nashville’s Pentaverit Studios.

Heading North x Old Neon (Old Neon’s Final Show!)
Special Guests: Keep Your Secrets (DC), Main Street Detour
Saturday, April 04, 2026
Doors: 7:00 pm / Show: 8:00 pm
The Funhouse at Mr. Smalls
Millvale,
PA
TICKETS ON SALE AT NOON, WEDNESDAY FEB 4
Heading North is Asha Edson (vocals), Aedan Symons (guitar), Cee Frink (bass), Hannah Kozak (guitar), and Mario Tierno (drums). Heading North started as five friends coming together in guitarist Aedan Symons’ living room to celebrate their love of music in February 2023. After a successful first single and well-received debut EP, the band quickly shifted from a pleasurable hobby to a full fledged, unimaginable musical project. Heading North combines elements of emo, pop punk, and metalcore to create their own space in the emo alternative scene; boisterous guitars, ethereal melodies, and brutal breakdowns have helped them gain popularity in their home city of Pittsburgh.
Old Neon is unlikely. Five strangers from Pittsburgh, PA coming together as the world was opening up again, never knowing if they would ever get to play a show. Unlikely that a band would survive through so many personal and creative differences to create their own tapestry of pop punk and grow together to become something greater than the sum of their parts. Unlikely that they would share stages with some of the biggest names in their genre, to challenge themselves as writers, and make it work at all. From the brink of breaking up altogether, the band has delivered their most moving work. The producer of their latest EP Matt Brasch (The Wonder Years, Cold Climb It) has stated that they have done “better than make it work. Not only did the band make things work, they succeeded in stepping up their craft as songwriters and performers throughout the project. They dug deep for beautiful and explosive performances.”

Wild Party
Special Guests: Capital Soiree

Doors: 7:00 pm / Show: 8:00 pm
The Funhouse at Mr. Smalls
Millvale,
PA
Playing what they call “face-melting pop music” that mixes chunky guitars with subtle electronics and proud dance beats, Wild Party are a band from San Antonio, Texas whose music sounds more like the work of New York hipsters than folks from the Lone Star State. Wild Party were formed by lead singer Lincoln Kreifels and guitarist Lucas Hughes in 2009; the two had been friends since junior high, and while Hughes had played in local bands before, Wild Party marked Kreifels’ first time singing with a group. The two originally launched Wild Party as a recording project, putting songs on tape and then posting them online, but when a 2010 single caught the attention of British new wave revivalists the Wombats, Wild Party were invited to tour with them in the U.K. The overseas tour proved to be too much, too soon, and Wild Party took a hiatus of nearly two years before they re-formed with a new lineup, featuring Ethan Kaufmann on bass and Jake Kreifels (Lincoln’s brother) on drums.
The new edition of the group put a greater emphasis on playing live, but they still focused much of their energy on recording, and in 2013 they released their album Phantom Pop as a digital download via iTunes. As the song “When I Get Older” gained buzz thanks to a music video, the album cracked the iTunes Top 100 Downloads chart, and in 2014 the album was reissued in physical form by the indie label Old Friends Records. By this time, Cary LaScala had replaced Jake Kreifels as the group’s drummer (LaScala also designs and markets a line of shirts for skinny guys, worn by Beck and Rivers Cuomo), and Wild Party were spending considerably more time on the road as their popularity grew.

Fotocrime – SECURITY TOUR
Rated Eye, Some Faith
Friday, April 10, 2026
Doors: 7:00 pm / Show: 8:00 pm
The Funhouse at Mr. Smalls
Millvale,
PA
Exploding with melodic and pummeling industrial-tinged post-punk, Louisville dark punk stalwarts FOTOCRIME erupt in an unexpectedly aggressive tone on their new album, Security. This more guitar-driven direction may seem like a pivot, but to those in the know it’s inherent in Fotocrime leader Ryan Patterson’s musical history and DNA. Patterson is a musician, producer, visual artist, and creative force behind Coliseum, Cat Magic Punks, Black Cross, and Shirt Killer, amongst many other bands and endeavors.
Formed in 2017, Fotocrime have released five EPs and four albums, and on their fifth LP, 2026’s Security, Patterson is joined by new members Benjamin Clark (formerly of Elliott) on guitar and David Cundiff on bass. Filled with tales of overblown machismo at the nuclear chess board and honest living in a corrupt world, Security is rife with sentiments of paranoia and impending doom. Despite the darkness, Fotocrime always strikes a chord of elation with their man-vs-machine electronic-meets-organic industrial punk.

Millvale,

Igor Yuzov was born in Germany, raised in Ukraine and studied in Russia. He grew up in the former Soviet Union, where folk music was the norm and rock’n’roll was illegal. A rebellious streak, led him to seek out the forbidden music. As soon as it became possible, Igor left Russia for America with his “Folk’n’Roll” band Limpopo, and was personally greeted by Ronald Reagan. In 1993, Limpopo won Ed McMahon’s Star Search and their popularity began to blossom. In 1995, Igor dreamed that Elvis Presley came to him and told him to start playing rock’n’roll. Igor and his Russian friends became Red Elvises and gave street performances on Santa Monica’s 3rd Street Promenade. As their crowds grew larger, the City of Santa Monica ordered them to discontinue their street performances. Evolving over the years, Igor’s music has been labeled “Siberian Surf Rock” which contains humorous lyrics and grooves that forces his audience to dance. Over the past 20 years, Red Elvises have constantly toured all over the world with occasional breaks to record new music and to participate in film and television projects.
As an independent band, Red Elvises have produced 12 studio albums, two live albums, a live concert DVD, and a Greatest Hits compilation. Some of their most notable film contributions include music and or performances in “Six String Samurai”, “Mail Order Bride”, “Armageddon”, “Skippy”, “Melrose Place”, “Fastlane”, “Penn and Teller’s Sin City Extravaganza”, “VH-1 Behind the Music”, and “MTV”. Red Elvises have performed for large festivals, private parties, and played on massive stages such as 2005’s Live 8 Benefit Concert. No matter where they perform, Igor & Red Elvises always bring the party with them.

Millvale,
PA
Originally from Boyd County, KY, Chaney has since relocated to Lexington and is sure to be the next big thing coming out of Kentucky. At only 21 years old, Chaney’s catalog may be small, but he already boasts an absolute masterpiece of an album in which he proves wise beyond his years.
Mercy, his debut album released in 2021, is a 12-song showcase of Eastern Kentucky, blue collar anthems highlighted by Chaney’s deft lyricism and storytelling. An unknown musician prior to the album’s release, Chaney has since experienced a meteoric rise in popularity and has quickly amassed a growing and dedicated fan base, already thirsty for new music.
The Local Honeys are a Kentucky bred duo specializing in the traditional music of their home state. Comprised of Linda Jean Stokley on guitar and old time fiddle and Montana Hobbs on banjo, the two have developed a sweet melding of instrumental and vocal blending that sounds like the bluegrass kissing the mountains. Dedicated to the preservation of regional traditional Kentucky music, The Local Honeys also compose original music that tells the stories, trials and songs of the mountains and people of southern Appalachia. Hobbs and Stokley made history in 2015 when they became the first two women to earn Bachelor of Arts from Morehead State University from the Kentucky Center for Traditional Music. They are versatile in their performance and able to captivate audiences while educating them on the rich history of Kentucky folk music.

Since 2016, Vacation Manor combine an artful blend of eloquent lyricism, alternative experimentation, indie rock energy, and unassuming pop appeal. The duo—Nathan Towles [guitar, vocals] and Cole Young [drums]—have earned acclaim from American Songwriter, Atwood, and more. Now, they pull fans deeper into their embrace on their 2025 EP [Nettwerk].
“We value people above all,” adds Nathan. “For us, our music is always better when we can involve our good friends in the process and experience something together. That in and of itself feels like a success for us.”
This community grasped onto the music and never let go. Vacation Manor emerged with the Girl, Say EP highlighted by “Careless” and the breakout “A Toast and a Spirit.” The pair progressed over the course of Everything I Can’t Say Out Loud [2019] and Vacation Manor [2021]. Along the way, they toured alongside Briston Maroney and Night Traveler, in addition to performing at festivals such as Bright Shade Music & Arts Festival. The guys carefully assembled what would become the EP over two years. This time around, songs represented “different landmarks” in their shared and individual experiences. Recording out of a home studio in Virginia, Nathan and Cole self-produced the tracks, nodding to inspirations a la Oasis and The Sundays.
In the end, Vacation Manor’s community will only continue to grow. “With anything we put out, we want to give people language to the things that they’re experiencing too,” Nathan leaves off. “It’s a way for us all to process life.”

Fantastic Cat
Special Guest: Michaela Anne
Wednesday, April 29, 2026
Doors: 7:00 pm / Show: 8:00 pm
The Funhouse at Mr. Smalls
Millvale,
PA
Hailed by Rolling Stone as “the supergroup you need to know,” Fantastic Cat emerged to
broad critical acclaim with the release of their irreverent debut, The Very Best of Fantastic
Cat, which earned the instrument-swapping, vocal-trading four-piece their first national TV
appearance, sold out headline dates around the US and Europe, a performance at the
Sundance Film Festival, and a song in the Paramount+ series Tulsa King. Two years later, they
followed it up with the similarly lauded Now That’s What I Call Fantastic Cat, which featured
an appearance from Counting Crows frontman Adam Duritz, landed the band dates with
Dawes and Lucius, and prompted WFUV to declare them “one of the best Americana and rock
bands to tumble out of New York over the last few years.”
Now, Fantastic Cat has defied the odds—and their therapists’ strong recommendations—to return with their third and finest album yet, Cat Out Of Hell. Produced by the band and mixed by D. James Goodwin (Goose, Kevin Morby, The Hold Steady), the collection elevates Fantastic Cat’s trademark blend of craftsmanship and chaos to new sonic heights, capturing the freewheeling, lightning in a bottle energy of their must-see live show and channeling it into a ramshackle house party full of existential searchers, desperate romantics, and barstool philosophers.
Individually, each member of Fantastic Cat boasts their own impressive resume including appearances everywhere from the New York Times and the Tiny Desk to Bonnaroo and Cayamo. NPR said Anthony D’Amato “sings and writes in the tradition of Bruce Springsteen or Josh Ritter.” Pitchfork called Brian Dunne’s new album “wise and poetic,” declaring that “every song sounds like his life depends on it.” Paste proclaimed Don DiLego's latest record a "stunner,” and Rolling Stone praised Mike Montali’s band, Hollis Brown, as “the soundtrack for a late-night drive through the American heartland."
Together, they form a four-headed songwriting hydra, one with the lush harmonies of CSNY, the playful wit of The Traveling Wilburys, and the relentless interpersonal strife of the Eagles.

James Goodwin (Goose, Kevin Morby, The Hold Steady), the collection elevates Fantastic Cat’s trademark blend of craftsmanship and chaos to new sonic heights, capturing the freewheeling, lightning in a bottle energy of their must-see live show and channeling it into a ramshackle house party full of existential searchers, desperate romantics, and barstool philosophers.
Individually, each member of Fantastic Cat boasts their own impressive resume including appearances everywhere from the New York Times and the Tiny Desk to Bonnaroo and Cayamo. NPR said Anthony D’Amato “sings and writes in the tradition of Bruce Springsteen or Josh Ritter.” Pitchfork called Brian Dunne’s new album “wise and poetic,” declaring that “every song sounds like his life depends on it.” Paste proclaimed Don DiLego's latest record a "stunner,” and Rolling Stone praised Mike Montali’s band, Hollis Brown, as “the soundtrack for a late-night drive through the American heartland."
Together, they form a four-headed songwriting hydra, one with the lush harmonies of CSNY, the playful wit of The Traveling Wilburys, and the relentless interpersonal strife of the Eagles.

Almost two decades into his career, Lionel (Vinyl) Williams is an enduring fixture of the psychedelic scene. He unveiled his Vinyl Williams alias in 2007, immediately establishing the blueprint for a sound that shimmers like bioluminescent glitter. With releases on labels including Chaz Bear’s Company Records, Requiem Pour Un Twister, and Harmony Records, Williams translates vast, galactic concepts into cosmic sonic textures. It seems fitting that Williams is the inventor of a system for understanding relationships called Musical Astrology — an app that allows you to hear the music of your birthdays, as well as the precise musical pitches of the planets in relation to Earth, on any given day.
