Copilot is a dynamic rock-pop band from Boston, Massachusetts, known for their energetic live performances and rich vocal harmonies. Formed in 2018, the band comprises Maggie Hall, Ry McDonald, Jake Machell, Dylan Allwine, Austin Beveridge, and Jack Snow, who met through their high school and college years in Massachusetts and Vermont. Their shared musical journeys culminated in a serendipitous house party performance, leading them to unite and pursue music together.
At the heart of Copilot’s sound is their powerful trio of lead vocalists—Maggie, Ry, and Jake—whose distinct voices blend seamlessly to create a tapestry of harmonies that drive the band’s emotive storytelling. Their music traverses the emotional spectrum, delivering both introspective ballads and high-energy anthems.
The rhythm section, featuring Austin Beveridge on bass, Dylan Allwine on drums, and Jack Snow on lead guitar, provides a steady groove that anchors the band’s retro rock-pop style. Together, Copilot crafts a sound that resonates with audiences, combining elements of roots rock, indie, and soul.
The past few years have been packed with exponential growth for the band in the studio and on the stage. Following a couple initial EP releases, their full length, debut Self Titled Album arrived 2023 followed by a 2024 EP entitled Vroom, Vroom, etc. titled). Live and on tour, they’ve performed on countless stages across the Northeast including headlining Boston’s Brighton Music Hall 3 times and the biggest festivals the region has to offer like Levitate Music Festival (2023), Grand Point North (2024), and Boston Calling (2025).

High Tea, the folk-punk “story-yelling” duo hailing from Massachusetts, is what happens when a yarn-spinning blues guitarist meets a harmony-obsessed punk. Isabella DeHerdt and Isaac Eliot have come together to fill spaces with homegrown tales and booming vocals. Their songs are ripe with existential angst, weaving narratives of growing up, going wild, and always coming back to the ones you love.
Their previous releases, Scuba Diving, Old Cowboy, and The Wick And The Flame were featured on playlists, radio shows, and publications like The Boston Globe, The Greenfield Recorder (among others). The title track of Old Cowboy led them to be chosen as one of WBUR’s top 4 Massachusetts Tiny Desk entries of 2022. They toured The Wick And The Flame on the West Coast, in New England, and throughout other US States and received write ups from Atwood’s Magazine, The Boston Herald, and more. They were nominated for the New England Music Awards Best Americana Act in 2023, and were selected to perform in the Grassy Hill Emerging Artist Showcase at Falcon Ridge Folk Festival in 2025.
Despite its name, there’s nothing little about High Tea’s upcoming album, A Small Notion. Listeners are led through an inspiringly personal journey, from the disoriented yearning of loss, to an appreciation of the brutal realities of rough living, to tender reflections on past mistakes, to an ultimate acceptance of the all-too-human need for community and care. As ever, the Massachusetts duo is heavily committed to marrying intensely beautiful lyrical storytelling with congruent and energetically contagious instrumental arrangements. Without a doubt, A Small Notion is some of High Tea’s most honest, eye-opening, and cathartic work yet.
