Tropidelic, a musical lighthouse from Cleveland, Ohio, shines a resilient light for those who’ve had to pull themselves up by their bootstraps. This six-piece powerhouse embraces an independent spirit, with frontman Roads focusing on emotions over sounds in their upcoming 2024 album. As an everyman band overcoming life’s obstacles, they’ve surpassed their original goals. Roads says, “I’m nose to the grindstone. It’s going great, and I’m going to keep going.” Over the past year, they've thrown the first pitch at a Cleveland Guardians game, adopted a highway, produced their own festivals, gained tens of millions of streams, performed at major US festivals, toured with acts like The Dirty Heads and Lupe Fiasco, and made their debut at Red Rocks Amphitheatre.
