Austin-based, Grammy-considered vocal powerhouse Adi Rao is redefining what it means to make music. Raised between worlds, Adi blends the aching soul of Country storytelling with the intricate emotional depth of South Indian classical music to create a sound that’s both wildly original and deeply human — a sound he calls Countryish. With over 50 million streams and a sound that shouldn't work on paper but feels inevitable when you hear it, Adi is proof that the most powerful artistic identity comes from refusing to choose between the worlds you belong to. He’ll be joined by his band featuring violin, pedal steel, keys, bass, electric & acoustic guitars, and drums. Learn more about Adi.
Kohanna is a 22-year-old Arizona-born artist who has called Virginia, Baltimore, Colorado, Nashville, Europe, and now Austin home. Her music feels like postcards from those places; carrying love, loss, joy, and hope in equal measure. It’s the story of a woman becoming, and she invites you to walk with her. Blending indie/pop with americana/folk, Kohanna creates a sound that feels both timeless and contemporary. She’ll be joined by her band of friends and collaborators, featuring saxophone, fiddle, bass, electric & acoustic guitars, keys, and drums. Learn more about Kohanna.
