A confluence of personal and shared experiences awakened Neon Trees in 2019. Following four relatively quiet years, the multiplatinum genre-busting alternative quartet—Tyler Glenn, Chris Allen, Elaine Bradley, and Branden Campbell—reignited the spark. The musicians summoned the same rock spirit, pop universality, and disco ball-drenched grooves that millions of fans fell in love with, while infusing a lot of wisdom and a little more wit earned along the way.

Hailing from northern Maine, Travis James Humphrey inherited his craft from his father, Tim Humphrey. Following high school, Travis dedicated eight years to the United States Air Force, serving as a Bandsman. Since then, he has diligently cultivated his following, one person and one venue at a time. From Tuesday to Saturday nights, you’ll often find him performing across his cherished home state of Maine, serenading audiences who appreciate his music. For Travis, this is the epitome of living out his dream.

Ryan Montbleau‘s new album, “Wood, Fire, Water, and Air,” is a significant step for the respected songwriter. It’s his first studio release since he decided to settle in Burlington, VT, and buy a house after more than twenty years of constant travel. While he wrote many of these songs over the past few years, they show that even before he put down roots, he was thinking about stability. They reveal a sense of growth and self-awareness that comes from taking a hard look at oneself.
