RIVER SHOOK

River Shook brings the electrifying spirit of Sarah Shook & the Disarmers into a bold new chapter as a solo artist. Drawing on a decade of relentless touring, Shook delivers a galvanizing blend of country and rock, marked by razor-sharp songwriting, blistering guitar solos, shimmering pedal steel, and a voice that cuts through darkness with raw honesty. Their self-titled debut solo album, out June 26, 2026, explores themes of love, longing, burnout, and empowerment—tracks like “Country Angel” and “If We Got A Chance” showcase Shook’s ability to pair heart-on-sleeve lyrics with high-energy, life-affirming performances. Opening the night is West Virginia native Olivia Ellen Lloyd, a Brooklyn-based singer-songwriter named a 2026 Artist to Watch by Nashville Scene, whose sophomore album *Do It Myself* has earned critical acclaim for its blend of Appalachian roots, folk, and indie rock.
