This week’s music news from Todd Rundgren, Farmer’s Wife, and the Revivalists
Todd Rundgren Announces “Still Me, (Still We)” 2025 Tour
Legendary producer/songwriter/guitarist Todd Rundgren will be embarking on a tour across the United States! Entitled “Still Me, (Still We)”. This tour acts as an extension to the last leg of Todd’s “Me/We” Tour from last year. Says Todd, “The show is kind of a story with a message. Even though a year has passed I still think the story needs to be told.”
The tour commences June 21st at the Park Theatre in Cranston, Rhode Island and ends July 27th at The Plaza Live in Orlando, Florida. The artist presale begins at 10 AM ET on April 15th [PW: VICTORY25], and tickets go on sale for the public at 10 AM local time on April 16th.
Todd’s band for the Still Me, (Still We) tour will feature Gil Assayas (Keys), Bruce McDaniel (Guitar), Prairie Prince (Drums), Bobby Strickland (Horns), and Kasim Sulton (Bass).
Born and raised in Philadelphia, Rundgren began playing guitar as a teenager, going on to found and front The Nazz, the quintessential `60’s psychedelic group. In 1969, he left the band to pursue a solo career, recording his debut offering, the legendary Runt. But it was 1972’s seminal Something/Anything?, on which he played all the instruments, sang all the vocal parts, and acted as his own producer, that catapulted Todd into the superstar limelight, prompting the press to unanimously dub him ‘Rock’s New Wunderkind’. It was followed by such landmark LPs as The Hermit of Mink Hollow and the above mentioned A Wizard, A True Star, as well as such hit singles as I Saw The Light, Hello It’s Me, Can We Still Be Friends, and Bang The Drum.
In 1974, Todd formed Todd Rundgren’s Utopia (renamed and reconfigured in 1976 as Utopia), an entirely new approach to the concept of interactive musicianship, and embarked on an extensive round of touring and recording. Standout Utopia offerings included Oops! Wrong Planet, Adventures in Utopia, and Oblivion. Along the way, Todd Rundgren’s Utopia combined technical virtuosity and creative passion to create music that initially, for millions, defined the term “progressive rock”, and subsequently, as Utopia, the term “powerpop”.

Austin rockers Farmer’s Wife are excited to announce their new EP, Faint Illusions, arriving May 15, 2025. An exploration of what’s real and what’s a figment of our imaginations, the forthcoming EP inspects reality in the context of love along churning guitars and bone-chattering whimsy. “Seethe” premiered last month, with “Mildew” preceding it, sonically previewing what’s to come from the rising group.

Since their inception in 2021, Farmer’s Wife has been a local go-to within Austin’s DIY scene, known for their incendiary performances, swirling guitar riffs and sludgy sound. Their first EP, There’s A Monster, arrived fall of 2023 and solidified their ability to create atmospheric songs that pull the listener in completely, bringing them into their dark fairy tale world. Last year, the group shared new singles “Boheme,” and a cover of Donovan’s “Season of the Witch,” previewing a deep shift in sound before touring around the U.S. with contemporaries like Cloud Nothings, Armlock, and Equipment.
