What frontman Christopher Kessenich describes as his “semi-solo project,” Arts Fishing Club has earned a reputation for incredible energetic live shows since forming in 2016. Drawing a revolving lineup from a core pool of top Nashville talent, they released their 2018 debut EP, Human — I, and a string of singles with high praise from NPR, American Songwriter, The Boot, PopDust, Atwood Magazine, and more. Frequently placed in a sonic world with the likes of Mt Joy, Caamp,, and Wilderado, their 2023 full-length album finds the band cementing a signature sound that increasingly favors succinct song structures and alt-rock instrumentation alongside an accomplished, jam-band joy in their craft.

“You go out every single day casting, coming up empty-handed, casting, coming up empty-handed,” said Kessenich referring to Arts Fishing Club’s name and philosophy. “But it’s not about catching the big fish — it’s about going on a crazy adventure with people that you love.”
