Introducing the 2025 Soundcheck Summer Music Series Lineup:
Saturday June 28 – TAE & THE NEIGHBORLY w/ special guest GRAVELJAW KEATON.
Tae & The Neighborly, a Wisconsin based Soul-pop R&B group, found themselves playing music together in a very unconventional way. They were all neighbors, each one living alone on one floor of a five-story flat. Cake baking is a shared passion of the five member group, but in the sugar shortages early in the 2020 pandemic, they found themselves so continually knocking on each other’s doors asking for a single cup of sugar that a group decision was made to all move in together and share cake-baking resources. And since everyone knows all good rhythms begin in the kitchen, it wasn’t before long that the group began to write and perform together across the nation. Critics hail the group as “having more kick than a bagged-up mule” (Rotary Times) and their live show “…going down smoother than a can of [beans] warmed on the campfire” (Cowboy Gazette).)
Graveljaw Keaton is a one-piece lofi-inspired, western-influenced instrumental guitar artist based in Salt Lake City, UT. Performing professionally for over a decade, Keaton Stewart (of Poet Bones) presents audiences with intoxicating layered guitar melodies that captivate.

Friday July 4 – MAYA DE VITRY w/ special guests SHELBY MEANS & JOEL TIMMONS & MORE
Maya de Vitry is a Nashville-based artist whose music blurs the lines of folk, indie rock, and Americana.

After a formative chapter with the roots-Americana trio The Stray Birds, she launched her solo career with the 2019 album Adaptations, earning praise from Rolling Stone Country, NPR Music, and No Depression. Since then, she has built a devoted following, drawn to both her recordings and her powerful live performances. Known for her magnetic voice and hard-won sense of purpose, Maya has toured in North America and Europe, supporting artists like The Wood Brothers, Aoife O’Donovan, John Craigie, and Mighty Poplar. Her songs have also appeared on albums by Molly Tuttle, Lindsay Lou, and Steve Poltz, and her skills as a multi-instrumentalist and harmony singer have contributed to many Nashville recordings.
