Atlanta, get ready. One of indie rock's most captivating storytellers is heading to the city, and he's bringing one of the scene's most exciting emerging voices along for the ride. Kevin Morby, the critically acclaimed singer-songwriter known for his cinematic, deeply American sound, is set to take the stage at the legendary Variety Playhouse on June 14, 2026, with Chicago's own Liam Kazar opening the night. This is the kind of show that Little Five Points was built for.

Why Kevin Morby Is a Must-See Artist

If you haven't been paying attention to Kevin Morby's trajectory over the past decade, now is the time to catch up — and catching up live is the only way to truly do it. Morby has carved out a lane that feels entirely his own, blending literary folk, garage rock, and Americana into something that sounds like a road trip through the soul of the country. Albums like Singing Saw, City Music, and This Is a Photograph have earned him a devoted following and widespread critical praise, and his live performances are nothing short of electric. He doesn't just perform songs — he inhabits them, and he pulls every person in the room along with him.

Liam Kazar: The Perfect Opening Act

Don't you dare sleep on Liam Kazar. The Chicago-based multi-instrumentalist has been turning heads across the indie world with his warm, melodic, and deeply groovy brand of folk-pop. A frequent collaborator within the Bonny Light Horseman orbit and a celebrated figure in Chicago's fertile music scene, Kazar brings a charm and musicality to the stage that feels both effortless and deeply intentional. His set will warm up the Variety Playhouse crowd in the best possible way.
