August may come with a little rust on the door (if you ask a Swiftie), but it’s swinging wide open for live music. Reneé Rapp just dropped her sophomore album BITE ME—and bite we did, sinking our teeth into the tracklist and chewing on every delectable lyric. Meanwhile, The Fray is taking us back to our feels with a 10-year celebration of How to Save a Life. So go on, dive into the list—eyes on the bullseye, ears on the prize.
The Fray
There’s nothing better than kicking off a tour with a full pulse—and that’s exactly what The Fray did, watching their How to Save a Life: 20th Anniversary Tour’s heartbeat flutter, thump, and go full arrhythmia thanks to a trio of sold-out shows in Dallas, Austin, and Houston. With plans to touch over 20 cities across the U.S. before crossing oceans for the Europe, UK, and Australia legs, the band is throwing a proper cardiac celebration for their 2005 debut album. So don’t wait until you’re on emotional life support—get your heart in rhythm by locking in those tickets. And if you’re really bold? Go for the meet and greet—because nothing says “I found God” like hugging the band behind your teenage CPR soundtrack.

Maren Morris
Our country-turned-pop gal Maren Morris is wrangling one heck of a week. First up: the deluxe version of her D R E A M S I C L E album drops, giving us even more shimmering slices of sonic summer. She also hit the Newport Folk Festival stage with a dream team lineup—crooning ‘Don’t Go Dark’ alongside Jack Antonoff and Bleachers, then teaming up with Remi Wolf for a little double genre gymnastics: a soulful take on John Prine’s ‘Angel from Montgomery’ and a hip-shaking spin on Elvis’s ‘Hound Dog.’ And just when we thought her boots might cool off, she announced her upcoming Amazon Music Songline album—a project that invites fans into the songwriter’s soul via reimagined versions of their own tracks. Maren’s giving us eight of them, arriving with a wink of numerological synchronicity on August 8.

Absolutely
BITE ME (or well, us)—because our favorite pop starlet with a knockout punch, Reneé Rapp, is back and definitely not wrapping it up. She’s heading out on a European tour next March, and she’s not going it alone. Joining her on the road is special guest Absolutely—aka the sister of someone we just mentioned, RAYE—making it a globe-trotting sister act we didn’t know we needed. Beyond the family ties, Absolutely’s been busy making waves of her own, recently touring with BANKS and launching her latest single ‘I Just Don’t Know Yet’ straight into the stratosphere. But one thing we do know? It’s time to grab those tickets.
