-
Aaron Behrens delivers intimate, powerful, and unforgettable performances. As frontman for Ghostland Observatory and The Midnight Stroll, he has helped shape a distinctive sound that balances raw energy, vulnerability, and craft. Aaron has headlined iconic venues and festivals including ACL, Lollapalooza, Coachella, and Red Rocks, and has shared the stage with legends such as Snoop Dogg, Outkast, Beastie Boys, Iggy Pop, The Flaming Lips, and Nine Inch Nails.
-
Now, Aaron steps out on his own with his debut solo album (coming later this year) and the first single “Solid Ground.” This collection blends raw, stripped-down lyrics with cosmic country Americana sounds that leaves listeners with a sense of hope on the horizon during the darkest of days. These songs reveal the heart and soul behind the larger-than-life frontman — showcasing his vocal range and true songwriting gift.

We are SO excited to hear Mama Duke perform at this year's Blues on the Green presented by H-E-B ! 👏
-
Mama Duke isn’t just an artist—she’s a force rewriting the rules of music and culture. A two-time Austin Hip-Hop Award winner, a two-time Austin Music Award nominee, and Recording Academy member, she’s carved out her own lane as one of the most important voices to emerge from Texas in a generation. She’s recently catapulted onto the national stage as a finalist on Season 20 of America’s Got Talent, where she earned Mel B’s coveted Golden Buzzer—an electric moment that launched her straight into the finals and drew comparisons to icons like Missy Elliott. In doing so, she became the first female rapper to make it to the Top 10 in the show’s history. The world watched as Mama Duke proved that rap could be stadium-filling, vulnerable, and unstoppable all at once. Her impact stretches beyond genre, beyond boundaries. Mama Duke stands as a mirror for countless communities, carrying stories that deserve the spotlight and embodying representation on the largest scale. She isn’t following a blueprint—she’s building a new one.
