WHY? - the hip-hop inspired indie-pop band fronted by Yoni Wolf - visited Third Man Records' Nashville Blue Room two months after their first in five years Moh Lhean hit record shelves. Despite no geographical connection, the night felt like a homecoming. The Wolf brothers and their prolificacy have long been on Third Man's radar, and the quartet's familial sensibilities radiated off the Blue Room stage and into the crowd, who sang along in harmony by the end of the night.

2021 . Since forming in 2007, Icon for Hire (composed of singer Ariel Bloomer and guitarist Shawn Jump) have quietly amassed a legion of followers. Currently sitting at over half a million monthly listeners on Spotify, Icon for Hire are the sleeping giants of the modern rock scene, and are now ready to step into the forefront with new album 'Amorphous'. Icon for Hire's sound is one that effortlessly blends heavy riffs, elements of electronic production and soaring vocal lines into a powerful & bold sonic explosion. However, at the heart of Icon for Hire's music is a message of positivity, self-love and personal empowerment from the painfully relatable and rousing lyrics of Ariel. For Amorphous, the band worked with Grammy Nominated engineer Romesh Dodangoda (known for his previous work producing the last Bring Me The Horizon album as well as acts such as Don Broco, Busted, and Kids in Glass Houses).
