At the core of The Swallowtails, you will find two musicians magnetized by a curiosity to connect and be understood. The genre-bending exploration between Miki P (guitar and vocals) and Rachel Lovelace (bassoon and vocals) has established the band as a premier act in Kansas City and naturally grown a large and loyal following as people connect with both the music and the musicians. The band’s sound is heavily influenced by rock, folk, pop, and classical music.

“A justly acclaimed, beautifully written, and intensely personal play…” (Chicago Tribune) from two-time Pulitzer Prize-winning playwright Lynn Nottage comes the soon-to-be classic, Intimate Apparel. Set in 1905 New York, Esther works as a seamstress sewing exquisite lingerie for an array of clients, but her skill with needle and thread has led to an absence of a personal life. As Esther explores a forbidden romance with an Orthodox Jewish fabric vendor and a long-distance courtship with a worker building the Panama Canal, she also gets exclusive access into the private lives of her clients. Nottage explores a distinct time period in New York and “honors a legacy of a woman, and those like her, whom history nearly forgot.” (Broadstreet Reviews)

When Gaetano Proclo—a hapless, middle-aged, very married, very straight man—goes on the run from his mafioso brother-in-law, he hides in the last place anyone would think to look: The Ritz, a bustling gay bathhouse. Fast, fizzy, and unapologetically outrageous, The Ritz is a laugh-out-loud romp where the only thing dropping faster than the towels… is Gaetano’s cover.

Katy Guillen & The Drive’s sophomore album Make That Sound has been making big waves in the indie music scene since its release last fall. Glide Magazine describes it as “a relentless rock vibe, combining Wet Leg’s modern edge and Courtney Barnett’s knack for guitar-based hooks,” and Rainbow Rodeo declared, “It’s raw, it's tight, and it's utterly compelling.” The last half of 2025 saw the band touring relentlessly on the new record with dates across the Midwest and Northeast, as well as a tour down the West Coast supporting British guitar legend Robin Trower. This year the band will take the new album to more cities across the country, including a tour through Alaska.
