About this Event


Award-winning Atlanta-based independent singer-songwriter Eliot Bronson will release his seventh studio album, Arrive, on November 6, 2026, via his New Pain Records label. Produced by Oliver Wood at the Wood Brothers’ studio in Nashville, Arrive showcases Bronson’s cinematic storytelling, memorable melodies, and uncanny ability to find depth and meaning in everyday life.

Anchored by Bronson’s warm, lived-in vocals and unmistakable sincerity, Arrive marks a creative turning point. “This album represents a new chapter for me—one filled with hope, generosity, and creative freedom,” says Bronson. “It’s a record about coming home to yourself. About finding presence in the pain. It’s about the journey it takes to arrive right here and now, with all our beauty and brokenness.”

Arrive features Eliot on acoustic and electric guitars, harmonica, and vocals, with an incredible band that includes Oliver Wood on electric guitar and harmony vocals; John Mailander (of Bruce Hornsby & The Noisemakers) on fiddle; Gabe Dixon (of Tedeschi Trucks Band) on piano, organ, and Wurlitzer; Mark Raudabaugh (of Sierra Hull) on drums and percussion; Bret Hartley on acoustic and electric guitars as well as lap steel; Will Robertson on upright and electric bass (and harmony vocals on a track); Matt Glassmeyer on saxophones, cornet, and euphonium; Kristina Train on harmony vocals; and JP Ruggieri on pedal steel.

Sweetboy is Anna Barnett, a singer-songwriter from Charlotte, North Carolina, now based in LA and NYC. She writes indie rock and Americana pop: big-feeling songs with sharp hooks, lyric-forward storytelling, and a southern undercurrent. Think Fiona Apple and Paramore lost in a Southern bookstore with an album to write.

Anna started writing songs at 17 on her dad's guitar and played one of her very first public performances at the Evening Muse's Monday Open Mic night. She moved to NY in 2016 where she started the Sweetboy band, opened for Adam Duritz's Underwater Sunshine Festival, and was featured in The Aquarian. Anna plays shows with an evolving lineup all over the US, but maintains ties to the South, where she's recorded most of her catalog over the last ten years.
