Song Rise Sessions isn't just a well-curated concert with a handful of Austin’s favorite acts, it’s also a launching ground for the next class of heavyweight artists. You may not know them all yet, but you likely will soon.
This year’s event features performances from acclaimed local artists including promqueen (Vietnamese American pop/rap artist and former KUTX Artist of the Month), Somebody Someone (Tiny Desk favorite and alt-pop songwriter), Anastasia Hera (KUTX Artist of the Month rapper), and Skateland (KUTX Artist of the Month and bedroom pop artist).
They’ll share the stage with eight rising young artists from the Song Rise Arts Thrive Program — Eddie Angel, Kira, Luna, Cherri, Zachquietdown, Yen, Gem, and ULTRA Violetcoraline — representing genres ranging from alt-R&B and bedroom pop to soulful pop en Español. Each artist will perform one or two original songs, with several joined onstage by their musician mentors. Expect highlights like Eddie Angel’s “Payaso,” featuring saxophone accompaniment from his mentor, Midnight Navy. Hosting duties will be led by “Austin soul sensation” (KUTX) Tomar Williams of Tomar and The FCs.
The lineup showcases the artists and mentors of the Song Rise Arts Thrive Program, which provides mentorship, industry access, recording experience, performance opportunities, and stipends to eliminate barriers for emerging musicians. The 2025 Thrive program is supported in part by the City of Austin Economic Development Department with administrative support from EQ Austin.
