Artist Presale: Tuesday, June 17 @ 10am CT (TIME4TOUR)General Onsale: Wednesday, June 18 @ 10am CT______Katie Pruitt is living proof of musics power to transform the way we experience the world. Soon after the arrival of her acclaimed debut Expectationsa 2020 LP on which she documented her journey in growing up queer in the Christian Souththe Georgia-bred singer/songwriter/guitarist heard from countless listeners that her songs had impacted their lives on an elemental level. A lot of people told me how the record helped them navigate their relationships with familyI even had some parents tell me that it helped them understand their children better, she recalls. With her sophomore album Mantras, the Nashville-based musician now looks inward to explore such matters as gender identity, self-compassion or the lack thereof, and the struggle for peace in times of chaos and uncertaintyultimately arriving at a body of work that speaks to the strength in undoing harmful self-beliefs and fully living your truth.One of the big themes of this record is the idea of building a home inside yourself rather than seeking it in others, says Pruitt. Over the past couple years Ive tried to change the way I speak to myself and turn my negative internal dialogue into a kinder voice, because that ends up influencing everything: the kindness starts with us and ripples outward into the world. Mantras is about finding that light within ourselves instead of falling into the trap of chasing validation from our parents or friends or religion or social media.

Three songwriters. Five bandmates. More than 15 years together, building a grassroots audience with a combination of stacked vocal harmonies and collaborative, song-driven Americana. Fruition is proof that theres strength in numbers.How To Make Mistakes, the bands first studio album in four years, showcases a reinvigorated group at the peak of its powers. This is American roots music at its broadest and boldest a melting pot of rock, soul, folk, and pop. What began as a busking string band has evolved into something more eclectic, rooted not only in the unique delivery of three different singers, but also the cohesion of five friends who prefer their music to be homegrown and honest mistakes and all.This is the first studio album that weve recorded entirely live, says Jay Cobb Anderson, who shares frontperson duties with fellow multi-instrumentalists Mimi Naja and Kellen Asebroek. We recorded 17 songs in 7 days, with everybody playing together in real time, and we didnt overdub anything. The songs sound honest and real. They sound like us.Co-produced by the bandmates themselves, How To Make Mistakes restores the momentum that Fruition nearly lost in 2020, back when Covid-19 forced them off the road and into quarantine. At the time, theyd been playing some of the biggest shows of their lives, crisscrossing the country in support of their most recent release, Broken At The Break Of Day. The albums lead single, Dawn, had even become a hit on Americana radio. Years of relentless work had taken a toll on Fruitions mental health, though, and cracks were starting to show in the bands foundation. We were so deep into the tour hustle that a lot of our cohesive vision mightve gotten lost, Naja admits. Like anybody in any work force, wed all learned to put our heads down and keep moving forward, even if that wasnt the best thing for us.When they reunited one year later for a long-overdue band practice, they took stock of everything that had changed during those 12 months apart. Some members had started families. Others had gotten sober. All of them had made the conscious decision to return to music. Fruition funneled that growth and maturity back into their new songs, which doubled as rallying cries for a band eager to chase down success once again. We all had the time to ask ourselves some big questions like Do we want to keep doing this? Naja adds. The fact that we reunited in such a reinforced way after all that time apart I think it says a lot about who this band truly is.
