Shybaby
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.
CS Cleaners
CS Cleaners are a Brooklyn 4 piece with a unique blend of post-punk, no-wave, and bombastic art rock, the quartet juxtapose freaky abandonment with austere precision, their songs acerbic yet increasingly unglued. Their sound is abrasive and delightfully strange.

HiFi
Brooklyn-based indie rock band hiFi is gearing up for their debut EP this winter. Recent releases “charlotte song” and “amoeba” showcase their unique blend of punchy, poppy anthems with grungy grit, offering a taste of what’s to come.

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.

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.’”

Talking Violet
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

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.

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.

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.

The Frank and Walters’ Paul Linehan is one of Ireland’s most talented and inspirational singer / songwriters.
For nearly 30 years Paul has penned and performed hundreds of songs with The Frank and Walters which have captured the hearts and minds of generations.
The band originally became world famous on the ‘90s indie scene and have produced seven studio albums. Paul has lost none of his talent or motivation to produce fantastically crafted and catchy indie songs and continues to write new material to this day. This summer the band also achieved a life-long ambition when they played with a full orchestra at the Cork Opera House.
Recently the band captured a whole new audience when their ‘90’s hit single ‘After All’ featured on the cult comedy show ‘The Young Offenders’ (the infamous ‘Billy Murphy’ bus hijack scene). And as well as being able to recall stories of Radiohead and Suede supporting the Frank and Walters on early tours, their recent single featured Peaky Blinders Cillian Murphy doing a voiceover on the track ‘Stages’.
The band are taking to the road to share the hits and their favourite long lost classics in all their acoustic glory. The lyrical and musical genius of Linehan’s song writing is laid bare in this intimate format and the true magic of the songs, coupled with Paul’s engaging personality shines through.

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.

Jordy Searcy
In 2020, after Jordy Searcy made a name as a homegrown touring act and a landmark songwriter for his generation, he left Nashville behind and hopped into his touring-van-turned-camper and drove to the west coast. The 2022 album Daylight is the sound of that uncertain adventurous time, surfing up and down the west coast, writing songs in remote outdoor locations in solitude for weeks at a time and touring the country with friends.
All of that changed in February 2022 when he met his now-wife, Michel Janse. A previous album titled “UFO” had been written, recorded and scrapped, because jordy found a new direction-The End Of Us.
The End Of Us is an album about endings and beginnings-the end of the adventure a single musician in his 20’s discovering the world and taking risks, and the beginning of building a life with the person you want to spend it with. The end of relentlessly chasing a career in a music city, and the beginning of a quiet creative life in the small beach town of Oceanside, CA where jordy now lives. For his wife Michel, this record also has special meaning-this is her 2nd marriage, and the record explores her story and her healing process.
Enlisting the help of longtime friend and hometown buddy Phillip Vo to write and produce, this record is energetic, California summery, Beatlesy, and fresh organic pop all in one. Relying on craft, inspiration, and fun, “The End Of Us” is a no-skips good time.
“Everyone’s life has little endings, its one of the only things you can rely on. For me, it doesn’t matter what you leave behind when something ends, its what you build going forward. That’s what this album is about-allowing yourself to become a new person, with a new person. I can’t wait for people to hear these songs!”
Theo Kandel
Theo Kandel’s music is a tapestry, with each song woven together like a thread of memory through your life. It’s a beer around the campfire with friends; it’s a baguette you picked up at the farmer’s market; it’s the night’s last cigarette on the porch when everyone else has gone to bed.
The New York-born and Los Angeles-based singer, songwriter, producer, and multi-instrumentalist zeroes in on everyday details and extracts wonder from them. This spirit surges through his eloquently-fashioned folk amplified by just the right dose of rock energy. Its also fueled his quiet rise as a phenomenon with millions of streams and packed shows.
After a series of what he describes as “test releases,” he emerged in 2021 with his debut EP, Spin Cycle, which incited the applause of FLAUNT, OnesToWatch, and more. Theo then said farewell to Nashville and set his sights on Los Angeles. His 2022 EP, What if it all works out in the end?, was highlighted by “Me & All My Friends Have Got the Blues,” a modern-day folk tune à la Jackson C. Frank and James Taylor. The lead single from that project, “Flight to JFK,” has reeled in over 500k streams to date. Between headlining dates of his own, he’s supported Evan Honer, ROSIE, WINGTIP, KT Tunstall, AJR, and even the legendary John Oates. Following the release of his stripped-down EP, Somewhere Along the Trail, Vol. 1, he released a duet with Evan Honer of his song “Flight to JFK (Alt. Version) and signed to Nettwerk. His debut album is due for a Fall 2024 release via the label. The first two singles from that record, Lunch and On My Mind, are out now.

Poison Ruïn
POISON RUÏN reach through the dark once again with the new EP, Confrere! “Confrere”- an ode to the sacred bonds of friendship; a strength which holds true through the endless twisting and straining of space and time. Confrere sees POISON RUÏN elevate their sound with more atmosphere and palpable urgency.
Following the title track, Confrere continues to hurtle through songs of struggle, death, despair, injustice and revenge. In a dark age where the very foundations of humanity threaten to crumble, POISON RUÏN believe that perhaps the only thing left to hang on to is the hand of a friend.

Their forthcoming self-titled studio album is set to release via Antena Krzyku (Poland) October 2024 followed by a full East Coast run."

OldStar
Oldstar is a country rock band from Panama City Beach, Florida. Centered around musical kingpin Zane Mclaughlin, the group writes country standards for the new generation- painting vivid, compelling images of life on the fringes of a declining landscape. McLaughlin hybridizes the stylings of classic writers and musicians like Sam Shepard and Neil Young with the sensibilities of the hyper-modern small-scale bedroom music movement. In doing so, they strikingly convey disconnect and discomfort with remarkable precision and simultaneous senses of timelessness and immediacy through songs that sound like they have existed forever.

Holy Wire
Holy Wire is the project of Alain Paradis. Towards the end of the pandemic, Paradis relocated from Brooklyn to Austin, going through a break-up and giving up drinking within the first month. Alone and sober without friends, family, or community, in an unfamiliar city barely beginning to emerge from lockdown, Paradis’ songwriting turned towards reflection, spurred by the process of grieving a life he left behind.
Holy Wire joins a small but growing local scene for synth music in Austin, playing alongside local breakout acts Urban Heat and Haunt Me, and fitting more broadly into the ranks of modern bands excavating the recesses of 80s post-punk and cold-wave to create their own vehicles for expression; bands like Black Marble, Automatic, Nation Of Language, and late-night TV titans Future Islands. In less than a year performing, Holy Wire has shared the stage with The KVB and New York minimal wave act Xeno And Oaklander.
The Ending of an Age was released on June 5, 2024. Holy Wire can currently be found playing shows in Austin and expanding their radius of touring outside of Texas.
Endearments
Kevin Marksson wears his heart on his sleeve. Never one to shy away from big emotions, the Brooklyn songwriter has poured three years of diaries into the music of Endearments. The trio’s latest EP, It Can Be Like This, is no exception; Marksson and his bandmates—guitarist Anjali Nair and drummer Will Haywood Smith—channel these introspections into lush, reverb-washed pop songs that evoke early 4AD dream pop and the romanticism of Roxy Music.
Spirits of Leo
Spirits of Leo is an ethereal post-punk band based in Brooklyn, NY. Beginning as the recording project of Ryan Santos Phillips, Spirits grew into a cathartic live act with the release of Equinox (2018). Delivering immersive and intimate vocals, swirling guitars and driving rhythms, Spirits of Leo is heavily inspired by early 4AD artists and late 70’s post-punk. Artists such as The Chameleons, The Cure and Cocteau Twins serve as primary influences for the band, while Spirits of Leo are frequently compared to contemporary artists such as Drab Majesty and Wild Nothing. Gossamer Blue is the latest full-length from the band, released on vinyl and cassette via à La Carte Records.
