Nation Of Language, following a postponement on the last leg of their tour, will finally be taking the stage at The Truman this Saturday. The trio released its latest album, Dance Called Memory, via Sub Pop earlier this year (2025). For those unaware, synth player / vocalist Aidan Noell grew up in the Kansas City metro. Anyway, happy new year, I reckon.

 

Other acts worth catching this week include Jackson Graham, Berzica, God's Computer, Vicar Amelia, Ebony Tusks, Western Cuts, and Flatline.
