Stone’s journey to musical stardom commenced in Chewelah, Wash., where his upbringing immersed him in gospel music as a pastor’s son. Relocating to Seattle, he tirelessly toured the West Coast in his ’87 Buick, swiftly gaining acclaim for his dynamic live shows, often playing up to 200 dates annually alongside luminaries such as Stevie Wonder, Al Green, Dave Matthews Band, Erykah Badu, and Gary Clark Jr. Notably, and Chris Stapleton, further solidifying his status as a tour de force in the music industry.

Alongside his prolific touring schedule, Stone has graced national television screens, including The Kelly Clarkson Show, Jimmy Kimmel Live, Today, and a Celebrity Mentor on ABC’s American Idol.

About Band of Horses

There might be no other band that was able to channel the generational anxiety in those early millennial years and turn it into such powerful and inclusive art quite like Band of Horses. Band of Horses has fashioned gorgeously ragged epics, with Ben Bridwell’s high-flying vocals and eccentric enunciation floating like a specter that felt like a prelude to a dream.

Full of profundity, truth, and sometimes just homespun advice on how to live, Band of Horses songs have become anthems and touchstones for fans – meditations on change, longing, and what a person will do to make things right. And what you do when you can’t.

The band’s debut Everything All the Time (2006) introduced their sweeping, emotionally resonant sound, and the albums that followed have cemented their place in the indie rock canon. They’ve released six studio albums, including Infinite Arms (2010), which earned a Grammy nomination. Most recently, the critically acclaimed Things Are Great (2022) finds the band recapturing the raw emotion and unpolished punk-rock spirit of its earlier days.

About Dinosaur Jr.

Dinosaur Jr. were largely responsible for returning lead guitar to indie rock and, along with their peers, they injected late-’80s alternative rock with monumental levels of pure guitar noise.

In 1987, Dinosaur Jr. released You’re Living All Over Me, which became an underground sensation. Early in 1988 they released the seminal single “Freak Scene,” a song that captured the feeling and tone of the emerging American post-punk underground. “Freak Scene” became a college radio hit, and it led the way for their acclaimed 1988 album, Bug.

Instead of capitalizing on the commercial breakthrough of alternative rock, Dinosaur released an EP, Whatever’s Cool with Me, in early 1992 and disappeared to record their next album. Released early in 1993, Where You Been benefited greatly from the commercial breakthrough of alternative rock, and many of the articles surrounding the album’s release hailed as an alternative godfather. It became the first Dinosaur album to chart, peaking at number 50, and it generated the modern rock hit “Start Choppin.” That summer, the group played on the third Lollapalooza tour.
