Daily Email - Wednesday - 7/30/2025

July 30, 2025

It’s already Wednesday and you’ve made it through Monday, an earthquake-triggered tsunami alert, and whatever the hell Tuesday was. You deserve something good — like a spiritual reset with some badass women.

Win tickets to the San Diego Found Collective on 8/29–8/30 at The Rock Church. A two-day, multi-generational gathering of women from every age and stage — hosted by K-LOVE’s Lauree Austin with speakers like Lisa Harper, TAYA, Hosanna Wong, and more.*

JUST ANNOUNCED

  • Lecrae, Miles Minnick, and GIO walk into House of Blues... and nobody leaves the same. Prepare for spirit-shaking rhymes and righteous energy this November.

  • Time travel is real, and it sounds like Foghat. They're hitting Belly Up on 1/28, which gives you just enough time to grow a killer mustache.

  • If your feelings had a dance party inside a laser prism, Jason Ross would be DJing. Join the emotional euphoria at Bloom on 9/19.

  • It’s 2025 and punk rules still, but the name’s changed — Spike and the Gimme Gimmes take over The Observatory on 12/6, channeling pure absurdity into every cover tune. Costume drama guaranteed.

  • Plus, other just-announced shows from Club 90s, Alejandro Escovedo, Real Estate, Fleetmac Wood, Tara Brooks, Oren, Tyler Chase, and more!

WIN STUFF WEDNESDAY

You could be halfway to a weekend you didn’t pay for. That’s what Win Stuff Wednesday is all about: the freebies, the chaos, the adrenaline of filling out a form and praying to the inbox gods. Do you believe in miracles? Because we do. And we also believe in fate.
