Juice

Between their tight grooves, radiant harmonies, heartfelt lyrics, and jaw-dropping solos , there’s no simple, easy way to summarize New York City five-piece Juice.

Pulling from pop and rock, hip-hop and R&B, ‘90s alternative, modern electronic, folk, and more, their complexity is their strength: All six members are multi-instrumentalists from different musical backgrounds and upbringings, each one bringing his own unique flavor to the band. The result is a “multi-dimensional rock” identity that has continuously evolved over the past decade, as the band members themselves – Ben Stevens (vocals, keys), Christian Rose (vocals, violin), Kamau Burton (vocals, guitar), Daniel Moss (guitar), and Rami El-Abidin (bass) – went from students at Boston College to professional touring musicians and seasoned recording artists.

Juice’s sound may be ever-evolving, but their bold energy is evergreen: The goal, both on stage and on record, is not just to connect on a human level, but to breathe life into every room. While they pack a punch on record, Juice shine their brightest onstage, bringing their music to life for all to see, hear, and feel. The band have played countless national tours over the past ten years, including four headline tours and support slots opening for bands like flipturn, Ocean Alley, and The Dip.

Strutman Lane

Transport yourself back in time. It’s a late summer evening, and you and your friends…and their friends too…smush into a diner booth that hasn’t been renovated since 1970-something. But that familiar setting is the perfect backdrop for a round of milkshakes and a chorus of laughter over jokes that make no sense. This sort of vibrant, golden memory is exactly what Strutman Lane captures on their newest EP, Made Up, releasing this November.

This eclectic group of friends from Washington, D.C. infuses new energy into classic pop music with timeless hooks, dazzling arrangements, and three-part harmonies. The unflappable grooves and soaring melodies evoke the classics of yesteryear like Hall & Oates and Earth, Wind & Fire. That’s right, yacht rock is back.

Following the success of their 2025 self-titled EP Strutman Lane, which has amassed over 3 million streams, the band is cruising into a confident new era of sound and style in 2026. Strutman Lane draws on the timeless appeal of funk, pop, and soul while carving out a sound entirely their own. Their recent single, “Know What I Know, ” accompanied by a retro-sitcom-inspired music video, has already racked up over 200,000 streams and earned enthusiastic features from Modern Music Analysis and Setlist Media.

From their headlining Know What I Know Tour, covered by The Washington Post and featuring performances at venues such as the 9:30 Club, Baby’s All Right, and The Middle East, to multiple opening stints with fan favorites Ripe and Juice, Strutman Lane continues to shine onstage. The band’s extended lineup packs each show with masterful improvisation, crowd singalongs, and inside jokes, leaving every audience member feeling like part of the family.
