On Wednesday, April 22nd, 2026, we had the opportunity to experience the full Magnolia Park experience at Mickey’s Black Box in Lititz, PA. Supporting this sold-out show featured upcoming artists Silly Goose and PINKNOISE. If there’s one thing that we know, it’s that these artists perfectly displayed what the future of music is all about. Over the past year, I’ve personally noticed an uptick of artists bending all of the rules within their genres and exploring other aspects of their music, helping create something new in its entirety. All of the artists on this tour do that so well, and it was honestly an honor to be able to witness it live and get to listen to it firsthand.
The first band to open was quickly rising artist PINKNOISE, fronted and created by Kacey Foxx, who continues to show just why they're on the rise in such a short amount of time. Their music combines elements of pop, punk, and metal in such a beautiful way that I would be surprised if they didn’t grow their community by storm by the end of 2026.
PINKNOISE revealed that this is their very first tour on stage, and you could tell that this was what they were born to do. Their songs touch on topics about mental health, relationships, and heartbreak — all things that I find it hard not to relate to. I felt an instant connection to their music and couldn’t tell if I honestly wanted to sway to the groove or break out into a mosh pit on the floor. If there’s one thing that’s for certain, it's that the future is pink.
Quickly moving on to Atlanta natives Silly Goose, they instantly swept their presence onto the stage, and they had one of the most crowd-interactive sets of the night. Silly Goose definitely has nu-metal roots, but if you’re a fan of Hollywood Undead, Beastie Boys, Limp Bizkit, and Fever 333, you should definitely check them out. I actually went up and approached the singer, Jackson Foster, after their set and asked them if Limp Bizkit had any kind of influence on their music, and he responded with, “Oh, most definitely.”
Their set was so much fun live, and the singer even hopped off stage and dove headfirst into the crowd early on in their set. The entire room moved and shifted to their command, and crowdsurfers quickly broke out and made their way to the front of the room.
The last to take over this sold-out show was the most anticipated — Magnolia Park. The entire room broke out into a roar when the band members made their way up onto the stage, and they started out the night with their song “Animal.”
Their use of rap, pop, and rock together blends perfectly into forming what their unique sound is all about. Lead singer Joshua Roberts truly has a beautiful and unique voice that’s even better to experience in person. Band members Vincent Ernst (bass), Freddie Criales (guitar), Tristan Torres (guitar), and Joe Horsham (drums), all sported matching Adidas track suits and absolutely owned their set.
Magnolia Park is rooted in Orlando, Florida, and was formed back in 2018. Their music touches on topics from relationships to aspects of mental health. They seem to heavily lean into imagery of vampires, often referring to their fanbase as that too. I think my favorite song that I got to watch them perform live was definitely "SHALLOW," which still proves to be their number one streaming song (and for good reason!)
It’s very clear why these artists are taking the world by storm, and to pack a room out in the middle of the week the way that they did proves anything but that (especially in the middle of nowhere, PA). Artists Magnolia Park and PINKNOISE have even collabed together on song “CRAVE”, which we highly suggest a listen if you haven’t yet (they even performed this together on stage at the show!).
If you haven’t had a chance to see them live yet, there are still a few dates left to catch them before the tour comes to an end. Catch the flyer below, this will probably be your last chance to see these guys on a smaller scale before the next go around.
