Victor Jones with Te'Jani and Tiny City

Presented by Confluence Music Fest Victor Jones Victor Jones is a dance rock singer/songwriter based in Brooklyn, NY. He plays music for mental breakdowns that can only be resolved with a raging party or a cathartic singalong. Victor gained success with his concept album “Zookeeper” and singles like "Mother Teresa" and "I Get Hurt,” the latter reaching millions of people on social media. He is 6’3” if that’s important to you. Instagram TikTok Spotify Te'Jani Te'Jani never wanted to be the life of the party-he just wanted to be free. Blending indie, punk, and hip-hop, the Charlotte-based artist makes raw, genre-bending music that feels like a DIY diary set on fire. Born in California and raised in small-town North Carolina under strict Christian rules, he first found success as a nationally ranked track athlete with Olympic dreams before mental health struggles and heartbreak unraveled everything. Homeless and couch-surfing, he began going to house parties where, for the first time, he could drop every label and just be himself. His debut album, Life Of The Party, captures that chaotic but liberating era with explosive energy, proving he could chase music with the same tenacity he once gave to sports. Along the way, he embraced failure, learned to do things scared, and carved out a lane for a Black punk rocker unafraid to be vulnerable. The result is a record that's both cathartic and groundbreaking. With catching the attention of names like Fred Durst (Limp Bizkit), Chris Carraba (Dashboard Confessional), and Travis Barker (Blink-182), Te’Jani will be one to watch in the coming years. Instagram TikTok Spotify Tiny City Tiny City is an indie rock band, carving a fresh path between post-punk and power pop. From Charlotte, NC, five best friends, Derek (vox), Brendan (guitar, keys, vox), Caleb (guitar), Nick (bass), and Craig (drum kit), are on a quest to redefine the listening experience. Danceability, driving riffs, captivating choruses, and an eclectic perspective on music and sound define Tiny City. Often likened to the musical stylistic of Spoon and Pavement and drawing influence from a wide array of musical pioneers, from legends like Talking Heads and Otis Redding to modern greats Modest Mouse to The Strokes, Tiny City's sound is familiar, yet unique in all ways. The human experience, curiosity, monotony, life, death. Instagram TikTok Spotify
