Hey guys. It’s been a while. :)

We’ve been hard at work in the studio working on our next full length record, HAPPY. We’ve got a new song that leans into our folk roots. Featuring our good friend @ben.reneer and a cowrite with our buddy @nephifofum, this song is called “Gravity.” It’s now streaming everywhere via @deseretnoiseco.

HEYO. NEW MAGAZINE.

Nine kids.
One struggling town.
And a mysterious machine called the Stoke-ometer they find hidden in an abandoned hydro plant.

With the help of their dog, Tank, and a supercomputer named OLL-E, The Stoke Brigade set out to reignite joy and passion in the town of Brightwood.

Welcome to Struck (@struckquarters) — an illustrated children’s story wrapped in an activity book and reflection journal.
Think Rocket Power meets The Goonies, but with emotional depth, vibrant illustrations, and activities that help kids discover joy, confidence, and connection.

Each hero in The Stoke Brigade represents one of the 9 Enneagram types — so every reader can find themselves in the story.
Action sports. Mystery. Humor.
Lessons in mental health, self-compassion, and friendship.
An original pop-punk soundtrack, with music by @aurhe.band accompanying Issue #1.

We’ve poured our hearts into creating something that helps the next generation step into their best selves — and now, we need your help to bring it to life.

Support Struck on Kickstarter and grab Issue #1 today. Link in bio. taken in Provo, Utah by @aimprota

From the archives: the pilot episode of our live sessions series.

Hailing from the surprising music mecca of Provo, Utah (Imagine Dragons, Neon Trees, The Backseat Lovers, The National Parks, Poolhouse), Michael Barrow & the Tourists perform their powerful new single, “Over It.” It’s a blend of dusty electric guitars and blue-eyed soul vocals that will resonate with fans of early James Bayand The Killers’ “Sam’s Town” era.

The five-piece is fronted by Michael Barrow on lead vocals and guitar, alongside Zach Collier (keys), Mac Wright (lead guitar), Alessandro Improta (bass), and Reed Perkins (drums). Their raw, emotional sound is evident on “Over It,” a track that balances bittersweet introspection with an undeniable sense of catharsis.

mynameisntjmack concluded his tmrw session with “American Spirit.”

Connection is everything to him. That was evident to us right from the get-go. It didn’t matter what setting we were in — whether he was recording music, posing during a photoshoot, or chatting in the moments in between, Jmack carried himself in a way that showed he knows himself and wants to know others.
⁠
His new mixtape, BOOKMARK 2, is out everywhere now.

mynameisntjmack dropped his hotly anticipated mixtape BOOKMARK 2 yesterday. “Lemon/Ginger” is our personal favorite from the record, and features mynameisntjmack’s signature tempo shifts, swung rhythms, delivery switchups, and superb lyricism. This version was performed live at tmrw HQ.

If you’re here, then I’m not the only one.

“Hold On Til You Let Go” is out everywhere now. It features our longtime friends @roseburgband, @yester_kid, @druskyband, and @cindersmusic. It’s a song about finding the will to keep going because you’re surrounded by amazing people.

We freaking love these bands and are so honored to have a song with all of us on it simply having fun together. When we look at our friends still making music all these years later, it makes us want to keep going too.

Shoutout to Scott Wiley of @juneaudio for the mix, @koneckimedia for the album art and accompanying album photography, and @curlyfriescloset for the world’s happiest hats.

Happy #spotifywrapped, everybody! Thanks to everyone who supported us this year. Huge things happened for “I See Stars” thanks to @thekissbet.official, and we had such a blast debuting “Over It” and our new sound for this next record. Looking forward to an even bigger 2025!
