“Sweep It Into Space is a masterpiece of zoned dialing. The subsequent generations of bands who grew up breathing Dino’s fumes managed to tinker around with the edges of their original post-hardcore song-forms enough for listeners to realize there had always been melodies at the center of everything they did.”

“With larger than life indie-pop anthems born of small town boredom, coming of age, big nights out and young love gone wrong, modernlove are a new generation’s brightest hope – already racking up streams in their millions and selling out shows, simply by singing about what they know and having a good time doing it. “

“Since smashing their first major performance at Treefort Music Fest 2022, local artists The Santucci Brothers & Mungo have been building Mizu, their new collaborative project. Blending Sex, Love, & Neo-Soul with R&B & Hip-Hop, their performance is more than just a concert, it is an experience. “

“Joshy Soul is an artist who finds his stride amongst the things he knows best: art and soul. As a performer, writer, producer, art director, stylist, fashion model, and roller-skating provocateur, his medium traverses first note to the last, first thread to final seam, and curtain draw to fall. “

“The French Tips are three women playing dance-punk bangers in Boise, Idaho. What began as an avenue for releasing pent up rage through music has evolved into a refuge from the personal and collective challenges of being a human over the past five years.”

“Championed by BBC 6Music, Rolling Stone and Pitchfork, Big Joanie are a London-based Black feminist punk band who combine the fury of nineties riot grrrl with synth-heavy post punk. Following their 2018 debut album ‘Sistahs’ on Thurston Moore and Eva Prinz’s label Daydream Library Series, the band secured a coveted run of support slots playing with Bikini Kill, Sleater-Kinney, St Vincent and IDLES. “
