Print isn’t dead—and neither is Wilmington’s music scene.
Encore’s Spring issue launch Thursday is a reminder: the stories, the songs, and the people behind them are still very much alive.

Print is Punk Spring Issue Launch
THUR APR 30: 6PM @ Eagle’s Dare - ILM
Hey, punk isn’t just a genre. It’s an attitude you can carry in your everyday. In today’s media landscape, print is punk. And for Encore 2026, print isn’t dead. Our Spring 2026 “Print is Punk” issue revolves around the music (not just punk) that keeps the beat in the Cape Fear. Join us to celebrate the voices that uplift and carry story in song and the performers who move us to act, become, and stand tall in our communities.
