Radkey
(St. Joseph, MO)
Genre: Punk
Radkey are three brothers, homeschooled in a”shitty little pink house”in St. Joseph, Missouri. Raised on their dad’s punk and metal records, they adopted the DIY ethos and fought against all odds to become one of the most authentic rock bands of the moment. They were signed to a label that got bought out and found themselves with no one left on their team. They signed a publishing deal with a tech bro, who quickly vanished when crypto collapsed. They had a major agency booking them on ill-planned tours that only paid $250 a night. But overcoming setbacks is nothing new for Radkey. Their upcoming album,Bedroom Sand,was recorded at Syracuse University during the summer of 2025 while students were gone for the summer. With help from a professor, Radkey snuck onto campus to record in the School of Music’s state-of-the-art studio. The new record, featuring the lead single “Victory,” is the band’s calling. They have persevered through it all and are the very definition of DIY: they book their own shows and tours throughout the country, and they self-release and market their records. They have taken back their rights and shown what true “Victory” is. And Victory is what one feels when they see the band perform live. They are one of the most powerful live bands, earning co-signs from tourmates Foo Fighters, Jack White, Rise Against, Living Colour, The Offspring, the Descendents and Local H. Ask anyone and they’ll tell you the same thing: to see Radkey live is to become a believer.
Reynaldo Jenkins and the Teardrops
(Milwaukee, WI)
Genre: Garage Rock
With an energetic live show and classic sounds inspired by doo wop and rockabilly, Reynaldo Jenkins and the Teardrops – lead by Joshua Kristopeit – is plenty full of swagger. Playing to Roy Orbison’s croons, Jon Spencer’s strut and the Black Lips’ rowdy, devil-may-care attitude.
Cozy Danger
(Milwaukee, WI)
Genre: Garage Rock, Jangle Pop, Surf Rock
Cozy Danger is the surf garage passion project of Jake Brandt, Chris Vertovec and Phil Gieschen. Born from the bend of Milwaukee’s indie rock scene, their jangly brand of surf garage teeters between smiley punk, funk-tinged rock, and surf driven garage pop. Simply put, this band is dog-friendly and fun AF. Cozy Danger is fresh off a year of break-out shows including a sold out Edelweiss Concert Cruise, Milwaukee street fests like Summer Soulstice Festival, and a record release show at Shank Hall. Their latest single, “Basement Uno” spins regularly in rotation on 88.9 Radio Milwaukee.
