Bats

Nashville band Bats is the project of songwriter, producer, and multi-instrumentalist Jess Awh. Their new album, "Good Game Baby" was released March 1, 2024 and is “country in its core, but also dabbles in long extensions of layers of found sound…and big droning guitar.” (Justin Barney, WNXP Nashville) Since the band’s origin in 2021, they have been appreciated for their eccentric, collage-style arrangements and exactingly poignant lyrics. “Bats has built a reliable reputation as a sincere lens into Awh’s own growing pains and intimate reflections… with her tongue and cheek lyricism, hyper specific anecdotes and country music roots… there is deliverance in her fractured timeline, blending nostalgia with confessionals as she looks back on how far she has come.” (Shea Roney, the Ugly Hug). Awh’s live band skillfully applies traditional instruments like fiddle and pedal steel guitar to a contemporary, stream-of-consciousness songwriting style, peppering in samples, drum machines, and distortion for an ultimately unique blend of Nashville hometown influence and indie rock sensibilities.

Garnering his first audience by making covers of songs he loved, it wasn't long before Bryce found listeners for his originals. Over the following years, Bryce would independently draw over 20 million streams, gain radio play (Triple J, SYN Radio), and build a strong core audience on the internet. Whether it was the short and simple hip-hop/pop of "Como" or the electronic panic attack of "Spite," Bryce has found consistency in variety.

Bryce grew up in Monterey, California. He now lives in New York, where he enjoys drinking coffee, making art, and spending time with friends.

Prom

Since forming in 2020, PROM has had no problems broadening their horizons and fanbase, to say the very least. Formed under the initial seclusion and distance of COVID, the trio (comprised of singer/songwriter Tatiana Hazel and producers Beelow and Billy Macadamia) were all looking for something to create in a time where many things felt uncertain. Reaching out to Macadamia, Hazel was looking to create something outside of her solo work that could be more ethereal, synth driven and propelled by a different type of sonic palette. After enlisting the melodic and chord-driven talents of long-time collaborator Beelow, they began working on their debut self-titled EP, sending tracks and new ideas via email and producing from across the country.

Winter Wolf

Winter Wolf, once a two-piece and now a four-piece band, hailing from NY/NJ began within the mind of Jehiel Winters. The band’s gritty, dark, and fast sound comes from a melting pot of different influences from the shock horror sounds of Screamin Jay Hawkins to the raw punching range of bands like Motorhead, and the duo vocal charges with a fast yet groovy punk beats reminiscent of Biohazard, just to name a few of their influences. Nate (who also plays in MAAFA) joined the band in August 2019 after the departure of the original drummer as a fill-in but soon remained full-time not long after. Tony $yxx, who initially joined as an announcer, jumped on as a full 2nd vocalist after being given the chance by Jehiel in 2019 at a Skatepark show in Queens. The band consists of Jey (He/Him) on Bass/Vox, Tony $yxx (He/Him) on Vox, Nate (He/Him) on drums, and Xvaiver Martinez aka Marly (He/Him/They/Them) who joined in 2022 on 2nd Bass. We originally called our genre Harlem Rhythm Punk but soon changed it to Afro-Surreal Punk, blending Hardcore, and Rock & Roll, with components of Soul and Gospel while also using the concept of Horror with the Realism of everyday life.

Philadelphia hardcore punk four piece SOJI produces energetic melodies paired alongside subversive lyrics reflecting on racism, womanism, police brutality, and the growing housing crisis. Aptly named “the crown revived”, SOJI comes out the gate swinging with a radically Black, Trans and Queer-led ethos and a dedication to disrupting existing punk spaces in favor of centering more Black Queer and Trans punks.

Di Ivories combines indie rock with a bewildering tension and vigorous excitement in a variety of ways that, in his words, evokes a “symphony of chaotic wonders.” Di Ivories weird and wonderful lyricism matched with an almost theatrical vocal delivery creates an uplifting sound that would be as fitting in a ballroom as it is a downtown New York boozer.

Talking Violet (est. 2018) transports the listener to a sonic dreamland. The Windsor, Ontario outfit melds the best elements of shoegaze, grunge, alternative rock, and dream-pop into a sound that pays homage to genre greats, while simultaneously giving a bold, original statement. Consisting of Jillian Goyeau (vocals, guitar), Jayden Turnbull (guitar, vocals), Jeremie Brousseau (drums) and Dylan Iannicello (bass), Talking Violet gears up to push boundaries with their most vulnerable and intimately curated creation yet. “Everything At Once”, the band’s anticipated 2024 sophomore album, was produced by Justin Meli and recorded in part at 80A Studios at Universal Music Canada (Toronto, ON) and Chalet Recording Studio (Uxbridge, ON).

Their lush, experimental sound has quickly left their mark on audiences with their " dreamy pop, hazy, gauzy songwriting, their effects-laden melodic excursions slice themselves off from the past, to find renewed innovation within the shoegaze template" - Clash Magazine

Thick

Since first forming in 2014, New York trio THICK have triumphed at turning the harshest truths into wildly exhilarating punk songs. On their second album Happy Now, vocalist/guitarist Nikki Sisti, vocalist/bassist Kate Black, and vocalist/drummer Shari Page deliver their most complex and confessional work yet, exploring everything from self-sabotage and insecurity to victim-blaming and destructive relationships. Raw, irreverent, and brutally honest, Happy Now ultimately offers both joyful catharsis and much-needed instruction for living well in turbulent times. 

“Most of our songs lean toward optimism, even when there’s a lot of pain in them,” says Sisti, who refers to THICK’s output as a “living diary.” “It’s not about toxic positivity or trying to force yourself into happiness; it’s about recognizing that it’s okay to feel a whole spectrum of emotions, and then getting to the other side and really growing from your experiences.”

The follow-up to 5 Years Behind (a 2020 release praised by Under the Rader as a “dazzling debut album…laced with anger, humor, killer guitar riffs, and soaring punk melodies”), Happy Now finds THICK working again with producer Joel Hamilton (Iggy Pop, Juiceboxxx) and recording at Studio G Brooklyn. In a profound evolution of their previous work, the 11-track album encompasses sharper arrangements and stickier hooks and a more explosive energy—an effect often achieved through the sheer force of their three voices singing in unstoppable unison.

Kicking off with a glorious bang, Happy Now opens on the frenetic urgency of “Happiness”: a dizzying yet incisive track that sets THICK’s self-reflection to a fantastically breakneck rhythm. “That song’s about the different ways we seek validation, and how whether you look for it externally or internally, it’s never an easy process,” says Black. “In the end, it’s about being more aware of where we’re trying to find happiness.” With its brilliant back-and-forth between riotous shouting and impossibly sweet harmonies, “Loser” arrives as a thrilling celebration of hopeless imperfection, cleverly twisting its closing lyric into an unlikely mantra (“I’ll always be a loser”). “Especially in music, it’s so easy to feel like a loser and a fuck-up,” says Page. “We want people to know that it’s okay to mess up and that everyone’s a loser sometimes. It’s really the best way to live, instead of trying to be number-one all the time.” And on “Tell Myself,” Happy Now slips into a wistful mood as THICK tenderly impart insight to their younger selves. “As you get older, you sometimes look at your little-kid self and wish you could give them a hug and tell them everything’s going to be okay,” says Black. “It’s not about minimizing life experiences, but a reminder that you’re stronger than you think and that—despite what it feels like in the moment—there is a light at the end of the tunnel.”

True to the egalitarian spirit of the band, THICK take a highly collaborative approach to their songwriting without ever sacrificing the intimacy of their lyrics. In the writing of the heavy-hearted “Disappear,” for instance, Sisti lifted directly from her journal in telling the story of “loving someone who gets lost in their own head, and how painful that can be.” Meanwhile, on “Her Chapstick,” Page opens up about a struggle in her own relationship. “It has to do with the experience of a partner seeking external affection,” she says. “It’s about navigating the feelings of why a partner is sharing themselves with someone else when you are right there.” 

All New York State natives, THICK’s three members first crossed paths through shows at Brooklyn’s DIY/all-ages spaces and soon became a mainstay in that very scene. Since signing to Epitaph in 2018—and making their label debut with their self-titled third EP the following year—the band has dramatically expanded their reach and toured all over the country, including a 2021 run with punk legends Flogging Molly and Violent Femmes. But even as their fanbase grows exponentially, THICK thrive on forging an uncommonly close connection with their audience. “Getting to share our songs with new people and build community in places we’ve never been before has been the most fulfilling experience for us,” says Black. “We want to leave everyone smiling from ear to ear and get them moving around and hopefully look up at us and say, ‘Oh, I can do that. I’m gonna start my own band now.’”

Blisspoint was born in 2018 as the recording project of multi-instrumentalist River Fleischner. Based in Brooklyn, NY, the project has since evolved into a collaborative trio of Fleischner (guitars, synths, vox), Til Will (drums, synths, vox) and Claire Joko-Fujimoto (synths & vox). Combining the scathing swoon of classic shoegaze, the harsh and exhilarating soundscapes of industrial and the propulsive pop of new wave, the group carves out a sonic universe all to themselves. If Crystal Castles, My Bloody Valentine and Death’s Dynamic Shroud collided in a black hole, it might sound something like Blisspoint.

Brooklyn’s Shybaby is permission to be ridiculous. It is a prying necessity to be loud and alive and felt. It’s trying and failing to love, and it's hopelessly in love. It is very much in the moment, unthought. It’s finding the fun in being unapologetically sad and dramatic – to feel your animal feelings so loud & out loud.

Onesie

Led by songwriter/guitarist/singer Ben Haberland, and joined by fellow lifers Rob Lanterman (Shrugdealer, Hidden Home Records) on guitar, Jason Bauers (Lie About, Better Plastics, Behold...The Arctopus) on drums, and Matt Ernest on bass, Brooklyn, NYC's Onesie have spent the last seven years chiseling out their own idiosyncratic place in the musical landscape. Combining the trim, confectionary songwriting of 70s power pop, the socially aware wit and jangling hooks of 80s indie/britpop, and the sledgehammer crunch of 90s DIY punk hardcore, the group have released three albums of timeless, catchy af jams that transmute our collective neuroses into something that will make you dance, air guitar, laugh, and cry…often in the same verse. As a genre bending catch-all project for timeless, obtuse guitar pop, Onesie remain difficult to categorize, but for those looking for a turbocharged testament to substance in an increasingly vapid musical landscape, here comes your band.

The Roulettes

The Roulettes thought they played their last show in Portland, OR, in 2004. A dude wrote "It's about time they shut the f**k up" on their poster at Kelly's Olympian Bar. Alas for him, they did not! The band re-emerged in NYC from a grad-school hiatus in 2009, slowly rebuilding with founding members, drummer/singer Rachel Hass and singer/guitarist Rebecca Keith (also the frontwoman of Little Hustle) and powerhouse bassist Alice Danger (who fronts her own solo project of the same name). Energized by being back in their hometown, the band started working on the songs that would become their first EP in 20 years, Mommy Comes Back, set to release in October, 2024. The Deli describes their first new single, “Batter Up” as “a fresh and feisty burst of inspiration.”

Dove Blood

dove blood is three people haunted by death in three distinct ways. Nadya Grace (bass, vocals) cheated death as a teenager by surviving a horrible car wreck. Alicia Berbenick (every instrument ever, vocals) draws and illustrates horror icons as an illustrator and poster designer. Avi Bonnerjee (guitar, vocals) is probably already dead, a walking corpse animated solely by ADHD meds and MKULTRA conspiracy theories.

Together, they make music that started as a collaborative pandemic catharsis but grew into a mix of sounds that is a little dream pop, a little shoegaze, and a little 90s goth. A death dream where the likes of Julee Cruise, Cocteau Twins and The Cure all make appearances.

Nevāda Nevada

Nevāda Nevada songs are lush, loud, melodic piano-and-guitar landscapes nested within an awful lot of noise, penned by frontman Kathryn Musilek (Burn Disco Burn, Deathships) and shaped and arranged by the band: Andrew Gerhan (Our Lady of the Highway, Adam Arcuragi, The Animals), David Olson (The Poison Control Center, The Wheelers) and Alicia Berbenick. In addition, Isiah Gage plays cello that sometimes sounds like horses, and Anya Combs plays supremely skronky, no-wave saxophone.

Musilek’s lyrics are figurative and feminist, full of abrupt shapes and bright-siding about “the difference a day made a decade ago,” or the more weighted and upsetting fact that “we can leave”, but it’s not going to change much. The songs on Past Life are about time and activism, love and rage, and being stuck while still building something.

JVK

Emerging from the Boston scene, JVK electrifies audiences with their contagious energy and vibrant performance. Backed by guitarists Atticus Crowley and Kay Kwiatek, and featuring frontwoman Jo Krieger, JVK strives to create authentic, empowering rock n’ roll with a punk attitude.

Starting out as Krieger’s solo project, JVK’s debut EP, ‘Hello, Again’, is proof of her carefully crafted lyricism. ‘My Own Man’, a fan-favorite from their first EP, shares a message of being independently confident, and, in Jo’s words, is “the song that encapsulates [JVK] the most”. 

After reconnecting with Kay, a former bandmate from a previous project, and meeting Atticus at a local skate park concert, Jo invited them to join the band. The trio’s undeniable, instant chemistry led them to write ‘Who Is JVK?’, the band’s sophomore EP. Delving into different genres in the rock spectrum, JVK creates an authentic sound and defines their message in this project. 

Following the release of ‘Who Is JVK?’, the band had their debut festival performance at Louder Than Life 2023 in Louisville, KY, and went on their first headlining US tour, celebrating their newest single ‘Body Double’. This year, JVK was the opening act for The Never Ending Fall’s ‘American Disco’ tour, and played a groundbreaking set at Boston Calling. Looking ahead, the band hopes to continue building their loyal fanbase and spreading their unique message.

Fear Not Ourselves Alone

Fear Not Ourselves Alone is an art rock band from Queens, New York composed of vocalist/bassist Jorge Ivan Velez, guitarist Jonathan Baron and drummer Eric Dryburgh alongside a variety of friends and other collaborators.
