Common People is an alternative rock band comprised of Nicky Winegardner (vocals), Cormac Cadden (drums), Asher Thomson (guitar), and Sam Belzer (guitar), supported by Chuck Gray (bass). Formed in Los Angeles in 2022, the band quickly began writing and performing local shows together. Initial demos caught the attention of Cage The Elephant co-founder and guitarist Brad Shultz, leading to the band signing with his Parallel Vision label in partnership with Big Loud Rock. In 2025, the band released a series of singles and joined Cage The Elephant and The Criticals on their respective tours. Earlier this year, Common People made their festival debut at Innings Festival before supporting Rainbow Kitten Surprise, The Bends, and Congress The Band on their respective spring tours. Most recently, the band made an appearance at Bonnaroo’s Outeroo and Minnesota Yacht Club before joining Young The Giant on the road. Later this year, the band will support The Bends and Brigitte Calls Me Baby on their respective fall tours, as well as deliver an exciting festival set at Austin City Limits. Common People’s debut EP, Games – produced by Brad Shultz – is out now.
