The Funhouse at Mr. Smalls
Millvale,

London-based songwriter Elanor Moss announces her signing to Merge Records and releases the new single, “Again, My Love.” The release follows 2025 tours with Foxwarren, Flyte, and Ye Vagabonds, and was met with support across the UK, with BBC6 Music naming her “One To Watch 2026”
Elanor Moss grew up in a very creative, devoutly Catholic family, and began playing music at church events. Homeschooled through early youth, her parents put a real emphasis on nature and reading and music. Eventually leaving the faith, Moss started writing songs of her own in York as a student of English literature and playing open mics around the city. While at University she also discovered songwriting greats: Leonard Cohen, Joni Mitchell, Bob Dylan, The Beatles. Shortly after graduation, Moss met producer Oli Deakin, who offered to record her first EP, “Citrus.” Her work with Deakin took her to New York City, where she began forging a sense of community. Between “Citrus” and her second EP, “Cosmic,” Moss toured with Christian Lee Hutson, Benjamin Francis Leftwich and LYR, played one-off shows with Cassandra Jenkins, CMAT, and Sam Amidon, and performed at Pitchfork London, Green Man Festival, and Mosely Folk, among others.

The Funhouse at Mr. Smalls
Millvale,

dogmeat is a grunge shoegaze/alternative rock band from Pittsburgh. After years of blasting basements locally in the city, their debut album "amateur introvert" has finally arrived. Their new sound brings a mix of fast-paced shoegaze chaos, contrasting bright nostalgic melodies with lyrics about loneliness and the search for identity. Blurring the lines between comfort and despair, amateur introvert explores what it means to be young and struggling in a world that has never felt more disconnected, all the while creating a reminder that these feelings don't have to be carried alone.

Brazilian rock ’n’ roll band BANDA AL9 are bringing their high-energy sound to the United States this November, arriving on the heels of a breakout year that has seen the group reach an international audience and earn the support of one of rock ’n’ roll’s
most influential champions, Little Steven Van Zandt.
The Burkharts bring a dose of sun-soaked nostalgia from the shores of Buffalo, NY. Blending breezy melodies with jangly guitars, their indie surf-pop sound drifts somewhere between a 1960s Californian daydream and modern lo-fi charm. Frontman Trevor pens the tunes while his brother Gavon keeps time on the drums, joined by Austin, Luke, and James to complete the band’s retro-tinged rhythm section. Their latest single, “Tell Me,” is out now—perfect for late-night drives and golden-hour memories.

All proceeds will be donated directly to Guitars4Vets.
Guitars4Vets is a nonprofit founded in 2007 that provides free guitar lessons and a free guitar to veterans living with PTSD and other service-related trauma. The program started in Milwaukee after a guitar instructor and a Vietnam-era Marine veteran discovered music helped with healing, and it has grown to more than 110 chapters in over 40 states, plus remote options. Veterans, typically referred by VA medical staff or a Vet center, complete 10 weeks of one-on-one lessons with volunteer instructors and receive a free acoustic guitar, accessories, and a method book upon graduation. To date, Guitars4Vets reports giving more than 80,000 lessons and over 8,000 guitars to veterans.
The organization emphasizes the mental health benefits of learning music. A study cited by Military.com found a 21% improvement in PTSD symptoms and a 27% decrease in depression symptoms among participants.
In support of Veteran’s Day, Chaotic Order Entertainment seeks to raise awareness for veterans living with PTSD, and plans to donate all proceeds to the Butler, PA chapter of G4V.
Representatives of G4V will be in attendance for the entirety of the event to provide more information and answer any questions regarding their program.

A pet can change the total course of action in one's life. Thelonious (Theo) the Irish Setter was no different for local musician Graham Albright. For eleven years, Theo served as a mascot and muse for Graham's extensive body of works in visual art, poems, songs and most importantly as the music's best support at live outdoor shows. Theo left this Earth in July, but his inspiration lives on. Join Graham and friends in the Pittsburgh music community in the Funhouse Friday, December 18th for a night of memorializing the life of a good boy. If you still feel the pain of having lost a pet, you will be in good company to relive and rejoice some of the best moments life can provide."
I've been doing some field work and wanted to mention I received the green light to promote a beer Boise did with Fermata Brewing Co. last year. If there's any way to arrange a keg at the bar, I'd love to help to make it happen. If not, we'll be canning in time for the event and I wanted to know what bringing those to the venue could look like. I strongly suspect there are many limitations because we don't want people avoiding the bar and hurting venue revenue in that respect, but I would love to open up the discussion if one is possible. If it is possible, I'd love to plug Fermata with a final statement in the description saying something like, "The event will feature the reanimation of Fermata Brewing Company's "Best Boy Brew," a collaborative beer from winter 2025 featuring Theo on every label.

PLEASE CHECK YOUR EMAIL FOR REFUND INSTRUCTIONS.
Way Dynamic, the solo project of Melbourne’s Dylan Young, will soon release internationally Massive Shoe – a third album that’s playful and understated, luminous and textured. Massive Shoe is minimalist folk-pop, art rock and baroque pop, produced and largely played by Young, who moonlights in Melbourne’s beloved Cool Sounds and Good Morning and has played drums with Snowy Band and Kankawa Nagarra.
It’s tempting to only compare these timeless songs to those of yesteryear, but there’s a sensibility, a turn of phrase, that feels deeply contemporary: it’s telling that Waxahatchee’s Katie Crutchfield described “Miffed It” as her “favourite song in a VERY long time”, and Katie and MJ Lenderman have both taken Way Dynamic on tour. At the same time, Sir Elton John said that he “just cannot stop listening” to “Ibiza”. Young’s songs don’t shy away from sentiment, or equally from silliness: on any given song he might evoke a cruisy trip through hell or earnestly lament a miscommunication. Whether the journey is to space or along the Seine, we’re very much along for the ride.
