***Anyhow is the Brooklyn indie rock duo of Nick Cianci and Dan Harris, and an Atwood Magazine Artist to Watch for 2026. Their self-titled debut LP — recorded with producer/drummer Noah Pope, mixed by Caleb Wright — pairs yearning, plainspoken lyrics with guitars that get louder the angstier the songs get. Atwood called it a passionate debut from a band that already sounds like they've been making music together for decades, and heard in it everything from Elliott Smith to Springsteen to Fountains of Wayne. The band put it more simply: the whole thing grew out of two friends, a couple of guitars, and a refusal to stay in one lane.*** ***Opening the night is Chloe Southern, a Boulder-raised, Brooklyn-based songwriter and producer whose music sits right where folk honesty meets rock grit. Winner of the 2025 BMI John Lennon Songwriters Award for her song "Blueprints," she's just released the single "Power Trip" and is quickly becoming one of the city's most compelling new voices.***
