Colby Acuff
A fifth-generation Idahoan, Acuff grew up watching his hometown Coeur d’Alene transform before his eyes. One by one, the lumber mills closed down as a blue-collar town turned into a ritzy resort escape for elites from around the country. Acuff’s childhood was full of music — Willie Nelson, Hank Williams, bluegrass — that situated all the changes he witnessed in a long lineage of working-class American struggle, and soundtracked the nostalgia felt by watching a way of life become bygone. By the time Acuff released his 2020 debut Life Of A Rolling Stone, his perspective and concerns as an artist were already fully-formed. He’d make two more albums while living in Idaho, 2021’s If I Were The Devil and 2022’s Honky Tonk Heaven before moving to Nashville to record 2023’s Western White Pines and 2024’s American Son with producer Eddie Spear (Zach Bryan and Brandi Carlile). After the release of American Son, Acuff sat down with his right-hand man, producer Eddie Spear, and they puzzled over a new approach to the next project. They decided to go out and talk to people, take the temperature, see what listeners wanted to hear. The resulting work still boasts the thoughtful reflections on American life that Acuff has made his name on, but refuses to simply stare into the void. Instead, the throughlines of the project became resilience and optimism even in the bleakest times. Having toured with the likes of Luke Combs, Charles Wesley Godwin, 49 Winchester, Midland, Whiskey Myers, Flatland Cavalry, Jon Pardi, Muscadine Bloodline and more, Acuff is embarking on the Handmade Horsepower headline tour in 2026 playing shows all across the country.

Joe Jackson
Joe Jackson was born on August 11 1954 in Burton-on-Trent, England, but grew up in the South Coast naval port city of Portsmouth At age 16 Joe played his first paying gig, as pianist in a pub next door to a glue factory just outside of Portsmouth. This was followed by other pub gigs (in which he was often trying to entertain crowds of drunken, bottle-throwing sailors) and accompanying a bouzouki player in a Greek restaurant. At age 18 Joe won a scholarship to study Composition, Piano, and Percussion at London’s Royal Academy of Music. By 1978 Joe was living in London and hawking an album-length demo, with his own band (Graham Maby, Bass; Dave Houghton, Drums; Gary Sanford, Guitar) standing by. That demo – already called Look Sharp – eventually found its way to American producer David Kershenbaum, who was in London in the capacity of talent scout for A&M Records. Joe was immediately signed and Look Sharp more professionally re-recorded in August ’78. The Joe Jackson Band finally started to play regular gigs and the album was released in January 1979. Joe Jackson’s story up to this point is much more fully, fascinatingly, and hilariously recounted in his book A CURE FOR GRAVITY. From here on, though, it becomes more a matter of public record. Look Sharp was followed within a year by the very similar I’m The Man, and in 1980 by the darker, more reggae-influenced Beat Crazy. At the end of 1980, drummer Houghton decided to quit, and Joe decided to dissolve the band and try something new. On 18 January 2019, Jackson released the album Fool. Jackson said about the album on his website: “One of my inspirations for this album was the band I’ve been touring with on and off for the last 3 years. I’ve had many different line-ups but this one is special.” Jackson and the band performed “Fabulously Absolute” on Jimmy Fallon’s Tonight Show on 21 January 2019.[20] Fool debuted in the top 20 album charts in Holland, Belgium, Germany and Switzerland. In the US, it debuted at No. 25 on Billboard’s Top Album Sales Chart. In the UK, it entered the Indie Albums Chart at No. 13. After a Covid induced layoff Joe toured the US and Europe in 2022 for a tour named “Sing, You Sinners!” featuring songs from his catalog plus a few select covers. The tour featured his band Graham Maby on Bass, Teddy Kumpel on Guitar and Doug Yowell on Drums. Nov 24th 2023 saw the release of “Mr Joe Jackson Presents “What A Racket”: The Music Of Max Champion”, a collection of songs written by the long forgotten Music Hall performer Max Champion. Joe toured during 2024 touring both the US and Europe performing a 2 part set. First part featured solo performances from his catalog. The second part featured songs from the “What A Racket” album performed with a 9 piece band. April 2026 will see the release of a new album “Hope and Fury” and extensive touring of both the US and Europe featuring a full band. Jackson splits his time between New York, Portsmouth UK and Berlin.
Eddie And The Getaway
No matter the genre, rules or expectations, Eddie And The Getaway is here to bend and break them all. At just 25-years-old, Eddie has built a passionate fanbase through emotionally raw Country lyricism fused with the high-octane guitars and rebellious spirit of early 2000s Rock. But his musical journey began early on, when a drum set gifted to him at age five sparked a passion that led him to pick up the guitar. As a teenager, the Phoenix, Arizona-raised musician formed his first band and won a local competition, earning an opportunity to open for Alice Cooper. Rooted in his enduring values of relentless hard work, unwavering passion and humble faith, Eddie has since crafted a sound that’s as grounded as it is high voltage. Solidifying himself as a true musical triple threat – songwriter, producer, and genre-blending artist – he’s found viral success with breakout tracks like “Love Myself,” “superNOVOCAINE,” “Cobain” and latest hit “Sleep Alone.” Independently, he’s amassed a devoted following of over 1.4 million across social media and garnered more than 83 million streams to date. Most recently, Eddie earned YouTube’s Silver Creator Award for achieving 100,000 subscribers milestone. With a “sound that feels both timeless and urgent,” Eddie is “unafraid to confront life’s challenges head-on, turning pain into music that is both cathartic and compelling” (All Country News) – a truth brought to life on his new TUMBLEWEEDS AND NICOTINE EP, out now. A storyteller at heart, Eddie wrote all six tracks and co-produced three, openly exploring mental health, personal battles and the steady presence of faith as a source of healing. Serving as both an escape and a mirror, TUMBLEWEEDS AND NICOTINE EP doesn’t just bend genres – it breaks them wide open, living at the intersection of personal reckoning and sonic rebellion. Beyond his own music, the multifaceted talent has written and produced for a range of artists including Jay Webb, Pecos & The Rooftops, LECADE, Sterling Elza and Lakeview – all while building his own artistry on the road. With momentum building and boundaries fading, Eddie is an artist you’ll want to keep up with – if you can. For a full list of tour dates and more, visit EddieAndTheGetaway.com.
