Kick off Memorial Day weekend with The Moonrise Cartel as they return to Park City Music Hall in Black Rock this Thursday, May 22 . With their newest single Set To Stun surpassing 100,000 streams on Spotify, this indie powerhouse is quickly rising through the ranks—and tickets for their shows sell fast. Led by the luminous vocals of Stephanie Harrison—often compared to Linda Ronstadt and Emmylou Harris—the band delivers a mix of emotionally raw songwriting and sonic brilliance. Co-founder Al Pascarelli brings depth with his gravel-toned voice and heartfelt lyrics, while Sean O’Reilly’s piano adds both tenderness and thunder, channeling the spirit of Tori Amos and Bruce Hornsby. Benj LeFevre on bass and Steve Tobey on drums lock in a rhythm section that is as fluid as it is powerful, completing the group’s unmistakable sound. Known for drawing fellow musicians to their shows, The Moonrise Cartel's live performances are electric, authentic, and not to be missed. Having opened for legends like Buddy Guy and Sophie B. Hawkins, they're clearly headed for bigger stages. 🎟️ Don’t wait—this show will sell out.
