KXCI Presents! Tash Sultana Wednesday at The Rialto Theatre/Tucson, Arizona.

Last chance to enter our GIVEAWAY contest which closes tonight. Born in Melbourne in 1995, Sultana began busking at age 13 and broke out with 2016’s textural marvel “Jungle,” topping off that song’s collage-like process with the high-wire daring of their versatile singing. Tash Sultana has never followed the script. The multi-instrumentalist, engineer, producer, and entrepreneur has built a groundbreaking career defined by creativity, authenticity, and relentless determination. Having amassed billions of streams, headlining major festivals, sold-out arena tours across the globe, and performances to hundreds of thousands of fans worldwide, Tash stands as one of Australia’s most influential and celebrated artists.

Tonight! Golden Boots and Thee Verduns stop by Locals Only for a live performance and interview in KXCI’s Studio 2A at 9 PM. Tune in at 91.3 FM or audio livestream the performance at KXCI.org. Video livestream is also available on the KXCI YouTube channel.

About Golden Boots and Thee Verduns:
In Spring 2025, French cartoonist, author, & musician Nicolas Moog and author and musician Jeanne Rivière (a.k.a. Thee Verduns) traveled to Tucson, Arizona from Metz, France to collaboratively write and record an album with Tucson musicians Dimitri Manos, Ryen Eggleston, (a.k.a. Golden Boots), and Jake Sullivan (co-owner of local record shop Wooden Tooth Records). The friends spent a few days writing at the Golden Boots practice space and then went to Waterworks Recording Studio where Jim Waters recorded and mixed the album in three days. The album “Carbon Footprint/Empreinte Carbone” was released on March 1st, 2026 on vinyl LP by KIZMIAZ Records out of Nantes, France. Golden Boots traveled to France to tour the album in April and will perform in Arizona for the record release at Che’s Lounge on May 30th. The album is 8 tracks that combine the neo-blues and garage-folk styles of Thee Verduns with the off-kilter pop sensibilities of Golden Boots…it’s kind of a playful garage-folk throwdown. The Golden Boots have been making music out of the Dunbar Springs neighborhood in downtown Tucson for almost 25 years.
