Jon Strahl Band is a band that has been steadily building their
reputation by blending retro and modern Blues sounds in their soulful and dynamic live performances. Flying under
the radar while honing their sound in Blues clubs, the old school way, their music is thick with the sounds of
American music.
With the release of Heartache and Toil, the band's 2nd full length album, they have begun to reach a much wider
audience with critics and music lovers around the world embracing their sounds. Despite being an independent
release, H&T spent over 9 months in the top 20 on Roots Music Blues Charts, with a handful of songs spending time
in the top 10.
With new music on the horizon the group is looking to build on that momentum by performing and releasing music
that honors their roots while coming straight from their souls.

This campy cult classic (which unfortunately, we can't name here, but you can watch the trailer over there) is the most popular
midnight movie of all time. A corn-fed all-American couple stumbles onto a creepy castle one night when their car breaks
down, entering a world they never dreamed existed. The castle turns out to be inhabited by a collection of kinky Transylvanian
freaks led by a mad bisexual transvestite. The film gained notoriety as the most successful midnight movie ever, in which
hundreds of cult fans show up in costume and act out scenes from the movie.

Singer/songwriter Greyson Chance is an emotive, pop-oriented
artist known for his lyrical, often piano-based material. Chance first garnered attention online before breaking
through with his 2011 debut, Hold on 'Til the Night, which hit number 29 on the Billboard 200. His sound has
grown ever more nuanced, incorporating textured electronic production alongside his acoustic work.
Chance first began playing piano at age eight. In April 2010, a video of Chance performing Lady Gaga's
Paparazzi at his middle-school talent show was uploaded to YouTube and went viral. It soon caught the
attention of Ellen DeGeneres, who invited the 12-year-old to perform on her show, and eventually signed him to her
then newly launched eleveneleven record label. A deal with Interscope followed, and in December 2010 he delivered
his debut single, Waiting Outside the Lines. The full-length Hold on 'Til the Night followed in 2011
and cracked the Top 40 during its first week of release. The EP Truth Be Told, Pt. 1 arrived in 2012.
Chance continued to tour and record over the next few years. As he matured his voice deepened, and his taste
shifted toward nuanced indie rock and alternative electronic pop. He showcased this sophisticated sound on his
2016 EP Somewhere Over My Head. Included on the set were the singles AfterlifeHit & Run and
Back on the Wall. Also that year, he guested on tyDi and Jack Novak's dance track Oceans. Chance
came out as gay in July 2017, making the announcement via social media and stating that he was happy and proud of
who he was. The dramatic single Low followed that December. A spate of singles appeared over the next year
including Lighthouse a collaboration with DJ/producer Fabian Mazur, Good as Gold and Twenty One.
In 2019, Chance delivered his sophomore full-length album, Portraits, which featured production by Willy
Beaman, Christian Medice, and Todd Spadafore. Included was the single Shut Up. The EP Trophies arrives
in June 2021, as did the stand-alone track Hellboy.
A bizarre cosmic collision propelled Alaska Thunderfuck 5000 to
Earth in March 1966: and on to the fifth season of Logo TV’s RuPaul's Drag Race in January 2013. Still radioactive,
no one knows who or what she is yet, but no one cares, as long as she never returns to her native planet. Her age
and species remain unknown to the public, but a few of her enemies claim to hold copies of her spawning record and
universal passport.
After her spaceship crashed in the Matanuska Valley, a remote part of south-central Alaska, the U.S. government
recovered an emaciated… make that, an emancipated alien, with a 1972 issue of Vanity Fair and a can of Tab, or
that's how the story goes. Why she needed an Elmer's glue stick, no one has determined. She refuses to acknowledge
it was in her possession. Few believe the wreckage was really smoldering, since magazines tend to burn, and cynics
wonder if she was actually held captive in a research facility, or entertained by the night watchman until he got
bored with her in the 1980s. She’s supposedly on the run from officials, but everyone knows they take off their
uniforms and sneak into the clubs where she performs. Some turned into groupies and hang around long after the
shows are over.
A well-traveled, campy extraterrestrial does have her perks and her irritations. Transients and drifters are directed
to the nearest black hole via her pre-screw-you GPS navigation, and drug-addled layabouts are allowed to create
their own black holes. She promises to upload each and everyone into the system. How dangerous can Thunderfuck be?
As dangerous as a black hole.
Watch this rare, magnificent being as she lights up televisions throughout the world on another of RuPaul's
extravaganzas. No, you won't end up a cancer-stricken lab rat. The screen acts as a radiation shield to protect
you from this renegade.
