Featuring:
Dead Cool
From the coastal charm of Wilmington, North Carolina emerges intriguing electronic duo, Dead Cool. Their namesake, drawn from a Chrome Cranks number, resonates with the unique chemistry of Johnny's multifaceted vocal, synthesizer, and guitar prowess, coupled with Angela Yeagher's bass rhythms and harmonizing vocals. Infused with the evocative notes of darkwave, post-punk, and synthpop, Dead Cool's musical offerings, established since 2020, have been garnering an enthusiastic following both domestically and internationally.
Drawing inspiration from the dramatic depths of The Sisters of Mercy, and the electric energy of Depeche Mode, Suicide, and The Human League, Dead Cool's compositions come with a wink and a nod to the grand traditions of darkwave, all while fashioning a niche of their own.
On American soil, their presence has been notably felt with appearances at notable events like Absolution Fest in Tampa and Dark Castle Fest in Louisville.
The allure of Dead Cool hasn't been confined to American borders. They've also cast their spell on audiences at esteemed venues like London's Slimelight, where they have become a house favorite, Camden Town's historic pub, The Dublin Castle and have toured and gained a devoted following worldwide.
Boasting eleven singles to their name, including their latest, Are We Living, Are We Dead, they've graced the same stages as notable names like Stabbing Westward, Bootblacks, ACTORS, Astari Nite, Korine, Vision Video, and Xeno & Oaklander across the Atlantic and within the US. Their acclaim was further cemented when Procession Magazine spotlighted them, and Goths World Wide honored them among their Top 50 Goth Bands of 2024.

Astari Nite
Astari Nite is a Miami-based dark wave/gothic rock band known for blending 80s new wave, post-punk, and electronic pop with dark, occult, and romantic themes, featuring members Illia Tulloch, Michael Setton, Miquell Sallons, and Mychael Ghost, rising from Miami's indie scene to play major festivals like Wave-Gotik-Treffen after gaining traction with EPs like Requiem Mass and albums like Resolution of Happiness.
Pilgrims
Pilgrims of Yearning (now simply PILGRIMS) is a darkwave/post-punk band from Boston, formed by Chilean vocalist Juls Garat and Colombian musician Claudio Marcio, known for blending gothic sounds with Latino influences, reflecting their immigrant journey in their music, with recent releases under the new name featuring bilingual lyrics and themes of displacement. They've released music like Gemini and Hadal, and their music draws inspiration from early Siouxsie and the Banshees and The Cure.
