SBS 365: Nicole Lawrence // CribshitterDoors: 6pm; Show 7pm
Wed, July 8, 2026
Nicole Lawrence is your favorite musician’s secret weapon, having toured globally with the likes of Jenny Lewis, Coldplay, Devendra Banhart, King Tuff, and Mary Timony, performing live on Late Night with Angel Olsen and Sharon Van Etten, and soloing on pedal steel alongside none other than Bruce Springsteen at MetLife Stadium.
On her debut solo LP, Time In Love (produced by alt-rock legend Mary Timony), she introduces her own voice, one of dryly poetic, road-tested wisdom, with the casual brilliance of a sought-after six-string heavyweight. Deftly weaving threads between the bar-smoke virtuosity of J.J. Cale to the slack eccentricity of early Beck, Nicole Lawrence’s debut effort shows the arresting confidence and refreshing wit of a seasoned artist who knows her craft inside and out—and knows what she wants to say with it.

Ween-influenced genre hoppers, Cribshitter is Madison, Wisconsin's premier fog machine-forward soft rock act. No one in their right state of mind could’ve possibly seen the first iteration of Madison’s most unapologetically unhinged band and predicted they’d be one of the most enduring acts the city would have throughout the 2000s, 2010s, and into the 2020s.
What started out as a near-parody of pop bands has turned into a seriously ambitious musical effort spiked with loads of obscure cultural references that will make you laugh. Cribshitter could well be Madison’s Flight of the Conchords.
Steve Albini once called them “Einstein-level geniuses.” And in 2024 the Mayor of Madison officially declared June 14th “Cribshitter Day” and gave them a key to the city (which they misguidedly cut in half thinking it was a ribbon cutting ceremony).
“It’s a rare band that can have a tuba-driven track called “Whippin’ Shitties” and simultaneously play most other bands off the stage.” -Tone Madison
