A Short Walk to Pluto + Escape Society  + The High Loves

Formed in 2018, comprising members Emma Armstrong (lead vocals), Max Kaiser (lead guitar, keys, synths), Danny Moriana (bass guitar, backing vocals, synths), and Jake Biggs (drums and percussion), the band has developed a tremendous social media presence through TikTok and Instagram, where they regularly debut original music and covers of well-known classics. It was through that online presence that the band was discovered and recently endorsed by Howard Stern on his SiriusXM radio show. Though much of their success is owed to their social media engagement, it is their genre-defying original music and energetic live performances (most notably at Ottawa BluesFest 2022) that have generated a loyal, consistent, and far reaching following. The band finished their first US and Canadian Tour in January of 2024, selling over 150 tickets per show. A Short Walk to Pluto currently has over 900K followers on social media and 8 original music releases to date. Their most popular song has been You Are Not The Only One with over 220K streams across all platforms. This young and professional-sounding foursome is prepared to deliver a show that concert goers will remember for a lifetime.
