Jay Aston’s Gene Loves Jezebel

Emerging from London’s vibrant post-punk scene in the early ‘80s, Gene Loves Jezebel made their mark with a bold fusion of new wave’s anthemic energy and gothic rock’s brooding allure. Led by Jay Aston, the band carved out a signature sound—soaring vocals, shimmering guitars, and an unmistakable sense of drama that fueled hits like Desire, The Motion of Love, and Jealous. Decades later, their music remains as hypnotic and electrifying as ever.

Belouis Some

A true icon of the synth-pop era, Belouis Some brought a sleek, futuristic edge to the 80s with his infectious hooks, bold visuals, and unmistakable style. Best known for the hit singles Imagination and Some People, his music blends atmospheric synths, pulsating rhythms, and a touch of new wave cool—delivering the kind of cinematic, neon-lit sound that defined a generation. With tracks featured in classic films like Pretty in Pink and a reputation for pushing artistic boundaries, Belouis Some remains a cult favorite among fans of stylish, sophisticated pop.

Okkervil River & The Antlers to perform at Fairfield Theatre Company in Fairfield Connecticut in June 2025

Okkervil River & The Antlers return in 2025, building on their acclaimed collaborative tour described as “playing old songs, new songs, each other’s songs.”

These intimate performances will again blend the distinct artistry of Peter Silberman and Will Sheff, offering audiences a unique opportunity to experience both bands individually and together in a deeply personal setting. Silberman has noted that “Will’s music was incredibly formative for me—his songwriting is embedded deeply in my musical DNA.”

Praised for their captivating collaborations, the pair previously earned acclaim for seamlessly interpreting each other’s work, creating unforgettable evenings of mutual creativity and shared inspiration.

Join Okkervil River & The Antlers in 2025 for another series of unforgettable musical conversations.

Okkervil River

Over the course of his career, Will Sheff has released ten albums that have given the front man of esteemed indie rock band Okkervil River a reputation as one of the greatest working songwriters in the country. As Sheff and his shifting lineup of players have traveled the world many times over, they’ve made fans ranging from Lou Reed to Barack Obama. Praised as “One of indie rock’s most ambitious thinkers”(Pitchfork), Sheff released his debut solo album ‘Nothing Special’ in 2022 to critical acclaim from The New Yorker, NPR, Uncut, Pitchfork, and more… with The New York Times saying it “Harnesses both the glow of poetry and the gravity of hymns.”

The Antlers

The Antlers are Peter Silberman and Michael Lerner. In 2021, the band released their first album in seven years titled Green to Gold, a bucolic record which Pitchfork described as “a post-rock orchestra playing around a campfire… the sound of hard-won peace of mind, rendered in the lightest brushstrokes.”

The release was followed by the Losing Light EP, a reimagining of four tracks from Green to Gold. Peter Silberman has also co-produced the recent Wild Pink album ILYSM, marking Silberman’s first foray into producing a record for another artist outside of the context of The Antlers or his solo work.

Since 2021, The Antlers have been releasing stand-alone singles “I Was Not There,” “Ahimsa” and a Brett Arnold reworking of “Green to Gold.”
