Renny Conti - Split Second Tour

Sun, Oct 25, 2026at 7:00 PM
540 Penn Street Northeast, Washington, DC
$17-$20
Featuring: Renny Conti, James Eichman, Jem Wilde

Renny Conti brings his Split Second Tour to Songbyrd Music House for an indie and folk-leaning singer-songwriter performance, with James Eichman and Jem Wilde supporting. The concert centers on Conti’s album *Split Second*, a reflective collection shaped by snapshots of the people and places that formed him, including family, heartbreak, personal growth, and the loss of his older brother.

Conti began releasing homemade albums in his early twenties after playing in metal and punk bands with friends and his brother. While studying film, he started writing and recording on his own, eventually developing a gentler, folk-influenced indie sound. *Split Second*, recorded with co-producer Adrian Olsen, combines acoustic guitar and direct vocals with orchestration, layered production, and occasional distortion drawn from Conti’s heavier musical background. The album was released in 2025 and led to a deal with Mom+Pop. Much of its emotional weight comes from the first songs Conti wrote after his brother’s death and from the experience of continuing their shared musical tradition alone.

Jem Wilde’s indie folk-rock songwriting emphasizes poetic honesty, confession, queer identity, trauma, and catharsis. A classically trained dancer, Wilde brings a vivid storytelling approach and a sound that has been compared to Lucy Dacus and Lizzy McAlpine. James Eichman is also part of the supporting lineup.
