The Situations is a five-member ensemble with pop boy band and indie rock influences that formed in October. Before starting The Situations, Chet Breister, Ryan Estes, James Harris, Matty Gottesman and Max Wright overlapped in several bands throughout their time at UCLA.

Indie rock band The Runarounds delivered a concert fueled by nonstop cheering, singing and jumping at a sold-out Fonda Theatre on Jan. 23 as part of their “The Minivan Tour.” The band formed in 2020 when the members all auditioned to play band members in season three of “Outer Banks.” They later starred in their own TV series “The Runarounds,” which premiered September 2025.
