• Transmography, La Snacks, Kn_iv_es

Transmography packs an industrial thwamp of experimental rock that coheres in abstract rhythms and explosive instrumental freak-outs on guitar, drums, bass, synth and electronics. La Snacks have been compared to such indie luminaries as Archers of Loaf, The Hold Steady and Pavement. Kn_iv_es is experimental.

• Great Big Gone

Great Big Gon brews up a twangy blend of electrified porch picking, finger licking, roots rocking, western swinging, honky tonking Americana all garnished with a pinch of cajun.

• A Rooster for the Masses with Plumerai

A Rooster for the Masses are moody Brit-influenced dance-pop that sounds like it stems from that same uneasy period in the early 80's that found Gang of Four experimenting with disco, and Joy Division morphing into New Order. Plumerai mix shoegaze, gypsy/european folk, post-punk, and filmscores behind sultry and heartfelt vocals.

• Amy Alley

Amy Alley's dad handed me his old wooden tennis racket and said "go practice with this." She did, every day, and one day he came in and said "well, let's go get a guitar". At the pawn shop she decided to be a drummer. So most of high school and college was in a folk rock band banging away and writing terrible poetry. At fifteen she borrowed an acoustic guitar from the bass player and started learning my "cowboy chords." The rest is history.
