Tropopause
The New Album from Bomethius
Featured Artists
Bomethius
Bomethius is a baroque pop project led by Jonathan Hodges—based right here in Chicago. His music, influenced by decades of classical training, blends chamber rock akin to Andrew Bird and Elliott Smith.
Tropopause, Bomethius’ second release on Oakley Avenue Records, arrives on June 6th, 2026. Working with the same core of collaborators from the prior record, Borrowed Time, and following years of diligent live performances, Bomethius has opened a new, louder, and more compact chapter in this nearly decade-long baroque pop project.
Lawrence Tome
Lawrence Tome is the King of the River. You may hear his sound waves dancing over the branching waterways of Chicago.
Lawrence Tome was born and raised in a Norman Rockwell painting.
Lawrence Tome will lull you into a trance before drenching you in lilting melodies and somber stories, packaged neatly in harmonic wrapping paper and taped shut with the sticky side of eras long gone.
Lawrence Tome is most easily seen under the light of a full moon.
