On July 19 Role Model released his sophomore album “Kansas Anymore” and quickly followed up the event with a sold-out show at Los Angeles’ The Troubadour in West Hollywood. The musician, born Tucker Pillsbury, has been on a steady rise since releasing his first EP in 2017 and signing with Interscope Records in 2018. His first album, “Rx,” came in 2022 and was all about falling in love. Cut to 2024 and the relationship had ended, which, thankfully for fans, resulted in a new record. This fall he will hit the road with Gracie Abrams, but in the meantime celebrated his album’s release at The Troubadour. He documented his first time setting foot on the famed stage (which was marked with a “pre-show stretch, I suppose”), his soundcheck (“Pretending to know how to play guitar on stage now”) and a moment backstage with Lizzy McAlpine (“LOOK AT THAT WOMAN”) who is featured on the “Kansas Anymore” song “So Far Gone.” See more from his first show at The Troubadour in West Hollywood here: https://lnkd.in/e4w2YwYD Photos: Courtesy of Mikayla Lobasso
