Singles like "Off the Ground" and "Life to Fix" have commended this Los Angeles band to listeners; their marriage of rock, blues and "classic vinyl," as AllMusic describes it, has made them a perfect partner for touring acts such as John Mayer, B.B. King and Bob Seger. Learn more at https://rosemusichall.com/event/the-record-company/.
Local artist Byron Neighbors and his sprawling cast of characters focus on the details and further the spirit of Floyd with concerts that are faithful yet follow their own drums. Neighbors' core band, Mercury Trio, shares the bill. Visit https://thebluenote.com/event/interstellar-overdrive-15th-anniversary/ for details.
Embrace a distinct era of alternative rock with this double bill featuring I Don't Know How But They Found Me — led by former Panic! At the Disco member Dallon Weekes — and "California" hitmakers Phantom Planet. Visit https://rosemusichall.com/event/idkhow-x-phantom-planet-at-rose-park-central-bank-downtown-live/ for more.
One of the true mainstays of independent music, Doug Martsch's band continues to create guitar rock that is somehow sprawling and insular in its way. Playdead shares the bill. Learn more at https://thebluenote.com/event/built-to-spill/.
For almost 25 years, Black Stone Cherry has carved out a way of life at the intersection of hard rock and Southern rock. Immerse yourself in heavy riffs and an American rasp. Find more details at https://thebluenote.com/event/black-stone-cherry/.
Nenni offers up a killer country sound with its roots in jukebox classics, but its restless feet always in motion. Rolling Stone examined last year's "Drive and Cry," calling Nenni's effort "the most exciting hard-nosed honky-tonk record of the year." Find details at https://rosemusichall.com/event/emily-nenni/.

Morgan, a venerable Michigan man, loves the outlaw country life and legacy and his style leans toward that side of the sound. AllMusic rightly called him a descendant to the likes of Waylon Jennings, Merle Haggard and David Allan Coe. Learn more at https://thebluenote.com/event/whitey-morgan-the-78s/.
From its Montana origins to its Nashville home, Tophouse has criss-crossed America and gathered snippets of its sound, resulting in a this harmony-rich, motion-filled string-band approach that's warm and inviting. Learn more at https://rosemusichall.com/event/tophouse-at-rose-park-central-bank-downtown-live/.
The Kentucky native keeps the music humming with, as AllMusic notes, "a contemporary lyrical outlook with a sound that harks back to country music of the 1950 and '60s." Presley Haile shares the bill. Learn more at https://rosemusichall.com/event/kelsey-waldon/.
Florida-forged Flipturn "deal in a hook-heavy indie rock that's lush, driving, and passionate," as AllMusic's Marcy Donelson noted. The band's sound is dreamy enough both to drive summer's dog days away and wring the most from what's left of them. Odie Leigh shares the bill.

Joshua Jackson in custody battle with his ex-wife over daughter's schooling
The ink has barely dried on Joshua Jackson and Jodie Turner-Smith's divorce papers, and already the exes are locked in a bitter legal dispute over their shared parenting arrangement. The Doctor Odyssey star has filed an emergency custody review, claiming his ex-wife enrolled their five-year-old daughter, Juno, in a new school without his consent. In the documents, obtained by People magazine, Joshua (46) alleges that Jodie (38) believes, 'it's no big deal to force Juno to start over with a new school'. He also complains that the new school is 45 minutes away from his home, making regular drop-offs and pick-ups nearly impossible for him. However, Joshua's concern goes beyond the school change itself. 'Jodie is attempting to create a scenario where Juno travels with her rather than attending a traditional school,' he claims. The Dawson's Creek star wants the court to order that their daughter remains in her current school in Calabasas, in Los Angeles, for the upcoming academic year. He also wants it stipulated that both parents must agree before any future school changes can be made. View this post on Instagram A post shared by THE AGENCY: CENTRAL INTELLIGENCE (@theagency_sho) Joshua and Jodie met at a 2018 party hosted by R&B singer Usher. They married in secret a year later before welcoming Juno in April 2020. In October 2023, the British model and actress filed for divorce on the grounds of 'irreconcilable differences'. Joshua recently told USA Today that he believes Jodie is attempting to change their daughter's schooling so there is more flexibility for Juno to accompany her when she needs to travel for work. READ MORE| 'I don't think of it as a failure' – Jodie Turner-Smith on divorcing Joshua Jackson He says he thinks maintaining educational stability is important for their daughter's well-being during her formative years – something he didn't experience as a child actor. 'I started acting at a young age. I have spent a lot of time with on-set or on-location tutors,' he said. 'Even in the best case, it cannot begin to provide a child with the same nurturing and enrichment, peer relationships and social skills that a classroom and school community environment provides.' He added that Juno has already endured a lot of changes, from their divorce to her home burning down during the LA wildfires in January, so she doesn't need any more turmoil. 'Unnecessary school change cannot be in her interests.' Jodie is yet to speak publicly on the matter. Despite their legal woes, it seems they're both moving on with their lives. View this post on Instagram A post shared by Joshua Jackson (@vancityjax) Jodie currently stars in The Agency as Dr Sami Zahir, an academic who becomes romantically involved with an undercover CIA agent. Describing her role she says, 'I love playing a dark-skinned Sudanese woman speaking Arabic on this show. I believe it's one of the most beautiful languages on this planet and I hope that Arabic-speaking people feel represented.' She is also set to be filming in London throughout next year. Meanwhile, Joshua is gearing up to return to his home in LA, which had to be rebuilt after being destroyed in the wildfires.
