    Fuck You, Tammy,
    New York’s beloved Twin Peaks supergroup, Fuck You, Tammy! aka “The Band From Another Place,” channels the music of Twin Peaks and the David Lynch Extended Cinematic Universe. In 2017 as the final episodes of Twin Peaks: The Return were airing, bandmates Julie Rozansky (bassist and vocalist in Scam Avenue, Tree River, The Art of Shooting) and Devery Doleman (lead vocalist in Scam Avenue, Les Sans Culottes, La Laque) had the genius idea to assemble a task force for a Halloween show to perform Julee Cruise/ Angelo Badalamenti songs: Drummer Nate Smith (Shy Child, Scam Avenue), keyboardist Bill Ferullo (Nuraxi, Nancy (Not Her Real Name), Les Sans Culottes),  guitarist David Andreana (The Ritualists), and D’Addario artist/ saxophone player /guitar player Anthony Cekay. Since then, Fuck You, Tammy!  has expanded their repertoire to include more songs from the David Lynch Extended Cinematic Universe [Lost HighwayWild At HeartBlue Velvet, and more] while developing an avid following. Fuck You, Tammy! has played The Bell House, the Mercury Lounge, Elsewhere, and 2019's infamous BLACK LODGE/ WHITE NOISE Halloween event at 3 Dollar Bill, has collaborated with members of The Pink Room Burlesque, and headlined Eraserhood Forever 2019 at PhilaMOCA, where they shared the stage with James Marshall.

    The Minks

    The Minks are Nashville’s “psychedelic-blues” band, heavy on the rock and roll. We’re talking low-down, all the way, purse-lipped, eyes-shut, head-whirling kind of groove. In 2015, on a search for creative community, Nikki Barber started the band based on the idea that "if you don't create, you'll combust". Just like a rock and roll circus, you never know what you're going to get, but you know it’ll be good. The band’s palpable sound has roots in every music fan’s top ten—from Lou to Patti to Creedence to Hank - but blends them into something totally original and current. Mixed with raw, jangly instrumentation and soulful saccharine vocals, it’s as much a throwback as it is an answer to the often overlooked underbelly of Nashville’s rock and roll scene. Look for them, on tour forever, spreading the gospel of letting your hair down and having a good time.

    Andorra
    “Soaked in Bud Light and regret,” Andorra is Kevin McCall, Jordan Petrellis, Michael Trycieckyj, and Dante DiLoreto. The band formed in 2010 in Philadelphia, PA and named themselves after the respective city suburb (not the country.) The group self-produced and released their third studio album, "Family Tree." Philly Live writes "the album exists within a boundary-less space of heavy rock and basement blues. All songs on the full album are explorative, yet relate to each other in different ways, fully emphasizing that familial theme."

    Thank You, I'm Sorry
    Anxiety is the first word sung on Thank You, I'm Sorry's first album. Back then it was just vocalist Lleen Dow's (they/them) voice and an acoustic, but three years and a full band, another album and several heart-rending singles later it's still on their mind. Anxiety never really goes away, but you can learn to cope and how to enjoy everything else. The respites, the joy, the excitement when anxiety takes a backseat. Thank You, I'm Sorry is growing, leaming, indulging, experimenting and figuring it out. Together. Thank You, I'm Sorry came together as a band to flesh out quiet, lonely songs Lleen built on their own, and they haven't stopped exploring and expanding their sound since. Bee Schreiner's (they/them) basslines effortlessly pull songs forward, knowing just when to nudge the band to avoid getting caught in an anxiety spiral. The drums from Sage Livergood (they/them) bring everything together, constantly keeping pace while poking out into fills that feel like they could shatter apart at any moment, yet always finding their way back. Abe Anderson's (he/him) and Lleen's guitar lines intertwine and bounce, refusing to sit still anywhere long enough to get bored. Thank You, I'm Sorry find ways to piece together parts that feel impossible to pin down or coalesce, making something beautiful and catchy that will bounce around your head for weeks.

    Under the Rug


    Under The Rug, the Austin, Texas-based indie outfit, has crafted a unique, heart-on-sleeve musical journey over their decade-long career. Led by the dynamic trio of vocalist and guitarist Casey Dayan, alongside the deft musicianship of guitarist Sean Campbell and drummer Brendan McQueeney, the band seamlessly blends an eclectic mix of indie, folk, and Americana, all while remaining steadfast in their commitment to the art of storytelling. 


    Known for their DIY marketing efforts, the band has built a fierce and dedicated fan base through direct-to-fan handwritten letters and their membership service, The Secret Hideout. Their dedication to songwriting as a craft is evident, delivering earnest tracks that resonate with listeners worldwide. Whether performing at sold-out shows or writing on the go in their beat-up van, the band continues to resonate with fans, capturing both hearts and imaginations. Under The Rug has garnered cheers from American SongwriterRolling Stone IndiaAtwood Magazine, and even received a co-sign from The Mountain Goats’ John Darnielle.  


    Building on the success of their acclaimed Junior LP, Homesick For Another World, and the viral sensation of their hit single, "Lonesome and Mad"—which topped Spotify's search charts in the US and continues to dominate virality playlists in numerous other countries—Under The Rug is set to sustain their momentum. The band eagerly anticipates their upcoming release, happiness is easy, and is preparing for their headlining US tour in support.


    Under The Rug’s upcoming release, happiness is easy, is a sprawling 2-part, 30-track exploration of the challenges of pursuing happiness, delivered with the band’s signature irreverence, irony, and dark humor. Produced with the help of David Peters, and featuring co-writers like Sam Hollander (Panic! At the Disco, Fitz and the Tantrums) and Mason Jennings, the album blends poignant personal themes with universal questions on life and fulfillment. 


    With songs like lead single "mad girl's love song," an interpretation of Sylvia Plath’s famed villanelle, title track "happiness is easy," and "i don't want to cry in my car anymore," each offering a tongue-in-cheek look into the headspace of lyricist Dayan, the album navigates topics such as self-discovery, authenticity, drug use, and loneliness, while providing moments of levity and insight. Dayan wrote happiness is easy as a reflection on coming to terms with identity and the pursuit of joy in a complicated world. “It’s the least fictional thing I’ve written,” she reveals. The album is filled with gentle arpeggios, evocative lyrics, and piercing guitar melodies that reveal the band's growth and commitment to authenticity. It's not just a meditation on personal struggles but also a search for meaning and connection in the modern age.
