(Boston, MA) Since their inception in early 2018, **Bermuda Search Party** (formerly known as The Q-Tip Bandits) have emerged into the Boston music scene as an energetic and vibrant act that continues to touch audience’s hearts while getting them up on their feet. Their smooth yet powerful sound is backed by the raw energy of rock and the coolness and colors of R&B and funk — with palpable grooves coated with savory, soul-inspired riffs, anthemic horns and meaningful lyrics. After a pandemic of writing and recording, the band released their self-produced debut LP, Melancholy Flowers, in 2022. Melancholy Flowers features the vocal stylings and songwriting of both guitarist Leo Son and bassist Claire Davis, and smooth and soaring trumpet and trombone from Maclin Tucker and Hoyt Parquet. The band toured in support of the record throughout the year, culminating in four Boston Music Awards nominations, for Live and Pop Act of the Year, Song of the Year for “Daisy,” and Album of the Year. In 2023, the band played stages across the country, touring the South and the Midwest and hitting festivals along the way including SXSW, Levitate Music Festival, and Boston Calling. In September, the band returned to the studio to record their sophomore LP with Eric Palmquist, known for his work with half•alive, Tate McRae, and Bad Suns. With singles coming in 2024, the record is a departure from the band’s previous work, putting a pop spin on their signature horn-driven indie rock sound.

Similar Kind is an indie pop band from Norwalk, CT. It originated as just a few friends jamming in a garage and has blossomed into a five piece band playing shows all over the US. Similar Kind has played with acts such as Sunflower Bean, Bad Bad Hats, Hot Flash Heat Wave, No Vacation & more. The band is currently working on a follow up EP to their debut "Faces & Places" a project chock-full of indie pop, reminiscent of The Cure and Talking Heads, described as "dance-ready synth-pop. equal parts R&B, pop, and indie rock, the EP is a highly-polished, thoroughly-confident release".
The band has a pair of new singles "I Don’t Wanna Fight Anymore" and “ There She Was” their latest releases.

Flowerbomb is an alternative indie band from Washington DC featuring lead songwriter and vocalist Rachel Kline, drummer and producer Dan ABH, Connor White on guitars, and Abby Rasheed on bass and backing vocals. With accolades from local outlets like the Wammies DC, (winning Best Rock Song and Best Rock Band, in 2023 and 2024) Flowerbomb has become a staple of their scene, winning over fans with the raw observational lyricism of Kline’s songwriting and the the palpable joy and camaraderie of their live performances.
Following the release of their debut 2020 LP pretty dark, the band returned in 2024 to release volumes 1 and 2 of their Gloom Scroll series, the first volume channeling more fuzzed out alt rock and the latter focusing on the dreamier side of Kline’s songwriting. Following in the footsteps of indie bands like Hop Along, Soccer Mommy, and Japanese Breakfast, Flowerbomb’s commitment to clever songwriting, their unique alternative sound, and their gut-punch relatable lyrics align them with some of the biggest names in the movement of independent women and queer artists. They’ve put their “hand to the plow,” and they till the soil of your heart, so that out of life’s darker realities, flowers are promised to bloom.
Take Me Out, their collaborative split with Pretty Bitter, is out NOW!
