The Massachusetts trio—Kevin Klein [vocals, guitar, producer], Chris Babbitt [bass], and Zakk Nix [drums]—might just make you ponder love and life a little more closely with their second full-length album, Heal My Head [Tooth & Nail Records]. The group canvas the biggest and smallest corners of emotions alike, which has garnered them millions of streams and acclaim from American Songwriter, FLOOD, Vanyaland, and more.
Connecticut rock group A Will Away seemingly came from nothing – limited by location, resources and community – but something this genre-bending band has never been short on is inspiration.
A decade on from playing basements in their hometown, A Will Away have put themselves on the map with rigorous touring and constantly refining their sound to craft catchy and approachable modern rock songs with significant depth for careful listeners. Creating honest and unapologetic music with an endearing blend of grit and charm has always been at the heart of the band’s mission and has earned them a loyal following with three EPs and a debut album under their belts. Relatable lyrics that speak of the hardships in life connect with audiences through a shared love of the human experience, making light of serious matters and exploring the mundane.
Since the release of their 2021 EP, “Where the Time Went”, Tiny Voices has had their grip on the Wisconsin emo scene and aren’t looking to loosen it any time soon. With a solid, unique, and high energy sound that continues to grow, this group has proven their ability to diversify their song writing to handle numerous styles, tempos, and emotions for their listeners.
