ABOUT HANNAH WICKLUND
Hannah Wicklund is a South Carolina-born rock musician who has spent more than two decades connecting people through her raw vocal power, world-class guitar playing and awe-inspiring live performances.
Blending the raw power of rock & roll, soul and psychedelia, Wicklund creates music for those seeking authenticity, human connection and creative freedom in an increasingly disconnected world.
Her career began as a child performing with her band on the beaches of Hilton Head Island, South Carolina. After graduating high school early, she hit the road and hasn't looked back, performing in more than 20 countries — from intimate clubs to some of the world's biggest stages.
Over the years, Wicklund has earned praise from Rolling Stone, Guitar World and Billboard, while sharing the stage with global acts including Greta Van Fleet and Marcus King. Her commanding live performances, musicianship and fiercely independent creative vision have built a devoted audience spanning generations and walks of life.
Now, Hannah enters her most ambitious chapter yet with her fourth studio album, War on Women; Calling All Good Men, out August 28, 2026.
Across 13 tracks, she moves fearlessly through rock, soul, blues, folk, gospel, psychedelia and pop, creating a record that is both beauty and beast. Born from her experiences navigating power, betrayal, love and the expectations placed upon women to make themselves smaller, the album is deeply personal — a call-to-arms for change, a story of reclaiming control and, ultimately, one of hope for the future.

ABOUT TURNING JANE
Turning Jane is a four-piece, independent and self-powered rock band from Los Angeles redefining modern rock for a new generation.
Self-described as "Hot Girl Rock," they fuse classic rock riffs, punk attitude and undeniable pop hooks into a sound built for a young, insatiable audience.
At its core, Turning Jane is about friendship, freedom and carving out your identity in a world that constantly tries to define it for you. Before industry co-signs or headline slots, the band was cutting its teeth in dive bars they weren't old enough to enter, earning real fans the hard way and commanding every room they stepped into.
Sonically, Turning Jane lives at the intersection of Joan Jett grit, Velvet Revolver power and No Doubt-level hooks. This is a band built on chemistry you can feel the second they hit the stage.
Taylor — Commanding frontwoman with explosive vocals that define the band's presence
Izzy — Award-winning guitarist with a signature tone and instinct for unforgettable riffs
Jasmine — Bassist anchoring the sound with groove and depth
Jordi — Powerhouse drummer with punk roots, now performing globally with Olivia Rodrigo
They've built a reputation as a must-see live act, headlining iconic Los Angeles venues including the Whisky a Go Go, performing at The NAMM Show and supporting John 5 across rock clubs nationwide.
No matter the stage, Turning Jane leaves as the band people talk about the next day.
Humble Roots
Humble Roots is a genre-blending band from Bon Air, Virginia. Their sound feels like a late summer sunset on the Chesapeake Bay-warm, hypnotic, and just a little bit wild! Classic rock, blues, soul, and reggae with a sun soaked psychedelic edge.
