WE DO ZEPPELIN
Years ago this group of musicians got together and discovered they do something particularly well. When asked they simply say “We do Zeppelin” but this statement doesn’t convey the years of refined, detailed, polished perfection that became Uncle Zep. It does little to explain the passion, perfection and obvious enjoyment they present at thier shows. Uncle Zep plays Led Zeppelin: considered one of the most successful, innovative, and influential rock groups in history.

Joey Cool is just that. Cool. The name is a reflection of his nonchalant bravado and swagger, but don't get it twisted. Though he may have this effortlessly “cool” persona, Joey comes for your head each and every time he picks up the mic. With a knifing drawl, fleet flow, and dense lyrics, Joey Cool transcends his moniker when he’s on the attack. His unwavering confidence and how he backs it up on the mic is what made Joey a pillar of the Kansas City hip-hop scene.

In fact, JL and Joey already have an electric chemistry you can see (anytime they perform together on stage) and hear (on the standout track “Catch A Wave” from JL’s album DIBKIS). Joey Cool, a seasoned veteran with a distinct style and an already deep relationship with Strange Music, made him the perfect addition to the roster. The Strange Reign release concert at Red Rocks Amphitheatre in front of 10,000 fans became the perfect place to make it official. Joey Cool’s history with Strange is what makes the future so exciting.

ABOUT THE SHOW: not so silent night FEATURING HINDER with special guests Moon Fever and Velvet Chains
DOORS AT: 6:30 pm
SHOW AT: 7:30 pm
HINDER
Hinder began crafting cocky, raucous post-grunge in the early 2000s, when Oklahoma City residents Joe Garvey and drummer Cody Hanson found Austin Winkler singing cover songs at a college party. The three formed the nucleus of Hinder, and the group started landing local gigs opening for such bands as Theory of a Deadman. Lineup changes brought guitarist Mark King and bassist Mike Rodden into the fold, and the quintet signed with Universal after issuing a self-released EP. Their 2005 full-length debut, Extreme Behavior, became one of the year's most popular albums, climbing to triple-platinum status and sending "Lips of an Angel" to number three on the singles charts. Hinder returned several years later with a second batch of party anthems entitled Take It to the Limit. All American Nightmare arrived in 2010, followed by Welcome to the Freakshow, the group's fourth studio album, in 2012. Winkler left Hinder in 2013. Jared Weeks filled in for a tour and then the band tested Nolan Neal before settling on Marshal Dutton in 2015. His first album with the band was When the Smoke Clears. Following the 2016 release of an acoustic EP called Stripped, Hinder released their sixth LP, The Reign, in August of 2017. ~ Johnny Loftus, Rovi

MOON FEVER
As if channeling a primal urge to let loose under cover of darkness, Moon Fever churns out slick, swaggering, and soulful rock ‘n’ roll anthems amplified by raw attitude and stark emotion. The Seattle quartet—Triston Bracht [vocals], Mitch Micoley [guitar], Dave Orton [bass], and Troy Wageman [drums]—captivate with a one-two punch of raucous instrumentation and intoxicating melodies. After racking up millions of streams independently and earning acclaim from the likes of Alternative Press, Substream Magazineandmanymore, the group continues to sharpen their signature style and plan to release a complete collection of songs later this year.“We’re not trying to sell people anything,” Triston says. “I’ve got pain, blood, and shit I want to get out of the water. We do music because it fills a hole in our souls. When you see us on stage, it’s clear we’re best friends. There’s nothing choreographed. When you listen to us, I hope you believe in what we’re doing too—because we do.”“Everything we do starts with being real,” Mitch agrees. At 17 years old, Mitch traded his hometown of Green Bay, Wisconsin for Los Angeles, CA. However, Seattle called to him in 2020. He settled in the Emerald City and linked up with Troy and Dave. Nodding to influences such as Queens of the Stone Age, Royal Blood, The Doors, and Alice In Chains ,the group had initially gained traction with the Payphone BluesEP highlighted by“Cocaine,” which generated millions of combined streams and counting. Upon meeting Triston in 2022, the lineup cemented. “He was the guy,” Mitch goes on. “We started writing together, recording, and making songs.”Building a reputation as a proven live presence, the musicians lit up stages alongside the likes of Adelita’s Way, Godsmack, Otherwise and Buckcherry. Following the raucous “Live Fast Die Young,” Moon Feverbulldozed their way further into the public with the releases of“I’m Gone” and “Nothing Left To Lose.”The 2023 single “Getting Loud” rides a hummable riff towards an unshakable and undeniable hook as Tristonwails, “It’s getting loud. I hear a voice in my head,” before a scorching guitar lead on the bridge. It lives up to Mitch’s promise of “Big high-energy rock.” Lyrically, it’s about being anxiety-ridden,” reveals Triston. “I think a lot of us hear those voices in our head. You’ve got to get the demons out, baby.” Then, there’s “Forever Sleep. ”The band conjured up a hypnotic chorus that gives way to a scorching solo. Accompanied by a video directed by Jim Louvau [Jerry Cantrell, Greg Puciato], it cuts deep.
“It’s very Seattle and probably the best thing we’ve written thus far,” notes Mitch. “We based the idea around the horribleness of existence. It’s pretty emotional and honest.”In the end, Moon Fever provides the best kind of escape.“A lot of people work nine-to-five jobs and just go through the motions in life,” Mitch leaves off. “They need a break to feel free, be themselves, and have a great time. We want to give them a chance to escape reality and experience a kickass rock show.” If I didn’t have music, I don’t know what I’d be doing,” Triston concludes. “I hope what we’re doing in Moon Fever makes an impact on you.”
velvet chains
Nothing breaks through borders and brings us together quite like rock music does. It transcends generations and crosses any and all lines. Velvet Chains harness this unifying energy through their own brand of unpredictable and undeniable hard rock anchored by hypnotic melodies and punchy instrumentation. Representing three countries, the Las Vegas-based quintet draws on the individual personalities of Chilean vocalist Ro Viper and bassist Nils Goldschmidt, Brazilian guitarist Lahi Cassiano, and American guitarist Von Boldt and drummer Jason Hope. Formed in 2018, the group initially thrived in the Las Vegas scene, developing a following through endless gigging. They further stoked buzz with 2022’sMorbid DreamsEP highlighted by “Last Drop,” which reeled in 550K Spotify streams and counting. Along the way, Guns N’ Roses guitarist Richard Fortus notably shredded on “Tattooed,” while bassist Jeff Rouse and guitarist Mike Squires of Duff McKagan’s Loaded also both jumped at the chance to collaborate with Velvet Chains. They lit up the stages of Rock Fest,Blue Ridge Rock Festival, and Summer Breeze OpenAir Brasil Festival in addition to joining bills with Stone Temple Pilots, The Winery Dogs, Saint Asonia, and L.A. Guns. Plus, the band canvased South America, opening for Slash featuring Myles Kennedy and the Conspirators on The River Is RisingTour in 2024. It’s no wonderV13professed,“Their heavy riffs, blasting beats, and towering vocals are well-suited for the arena rock sound that they have become known for.” The band garnered a newfound notoriety thanks to their headline-making cover of Elvis Presley’s “Suspicious Minds” and spent 9 weeks on the Active Rock Top 40 charts with “Stuck Against The Wall.”Amassing millions of streams and views, sharing the stage with legends, and earning acclaim from Brave Words, Las Vegas Weekly, and more, the band amplifies this vision on their 2025 independent full-length debut album and more to come.

A multi-sport athlete in high school, Jake attended the University of Maine as a defensive end on the football team, before transferring to the University of Florida where he threw the javelin. Summers during college were spent working and tending horses, and singing for friends on the weekend. Jake was hopeful of someday becoming an Olympian in the javelin, but a torn rotator cuff ended that dream. As his side passion for music grew, people started asking him to play and sing. As a senior finishing up a degree in building construction, Jake decided to propose to his girlfriend. With $1,400 in his savings account, he enlisted the help of a local jeweler to fashion a diamond engagement ring. However, fate intervened when, in the middle of a dinner date, the potential fiancé broke off the relationship. So, Jake did what most forlorn men do. He took that diamond ring money and purchased a brand-new Gibson guitar. Then he packed all his earthly possessions into a small SUV and headed nine hours north to pursue his musical dreams in Nashville.
Jake found work with a construction firm, and after long days in the field he would drive into the Tennessee hills to work on his songwriting, or he would try to make the cut at bars and honky tonks on open mic nights. Realizing that working six days a week in construction left him little time and energy to write and perform, Jake left that job and started driving for a rideshare business. Since that barely paid the bills, he soon found himself staring at an eviction notice for unpaid rent. He considered purchasing a small camper shell for his pickup truck and making the truck bed his home until he got back on solid ground.
Fortunately, word of his work started to spread, and he began finding consistent jobs singing and playing in downtown Nashville. Jake’s performing talents and songwriting abilities were quickly noticed by people in the industry which led to commercial and film recordings, and live performances spanning from Nashville to America's east and west coast, Canada, and all parts between.
Jake likes chips and guacamole, steak, and beer, and he loves America and Jesus.
