🌟Moon Valley, @moonvalleystl
Hailing from St. Louis, Moon Valley carves a singular path through sound—a magnetic blend of indie rock, psychedelic folk, Celtic echoes, roots-rock grit, and cinematic jazz.

Whether you’ve been riding the wave since their early days or you’re just stepping into the Valley, this show promises to unveil the full spectrum of their artistry—and the start of a bold new chapter.


⭐ Special Guests ⭐

⭐Mattie Schell, @mattieschellmusic
A voice you don’t forget. Formerly one-half of River Kittens, Mattie Schell steps fully into her own orbit. Her debut solo record It Goes (produced by JD Simo) was cut live to tape—raw, unfiltered, and emotionally arresting. Expect soul-stirring Americana, piercing honesty, and vocals that haunt and heal in equal measure.


⭐Benoit and The Empty Hill
More séance than set, Benoit and The Empty Hill—comprised of ambient architects Brian Bennett and Mitchell Hill—conjure soundscapes that are meditative, ancestral, and richly atmospheric. A longtime fixture in the Moon Valley orbit, their performance is an offering of presence, connection, and deep-rooted musical devotion. (first EVER performance 👏)


⭐Mikey Wehling, @mikeyandscout
A sonic naturalist with deep ties to the Missouri landscape, Mikey Wehling’s instrumental work feels like a walk through dusk-lit woods. Using guitar and dobro, he paints expansive, wordless portraits—lush and cinematic, meditative and wild. His Camp Scout series is a heartfelt homage to the outdoors and the inner quiet it cultivates.
