Adopted Enemy, along with associate persona AD, is making waves with a unique blend of horrorcore rap, deep house, alt rock, and experimental genres. Known for pushing boundaries through interpolations, parody, and fearless stream-of-consciousness lyrics. As a Washington, DC native, this will be his debut show in his hometown.

Hailing from PG County, Maryland, Trinomial is a trio of the alt-jazz variety. The trio blends their diverse influences into a sound that can only be described as "whatever we think sounds good". Their sound draws inspiration from artists like BADBADNOTGOOD, Kiefer, and Yussef Dayes. Featuring Brody Steck on keys, Ivanna Ajakpo on bass, and Tijan Glover on drums, the band enjoys long walks on the beach, drinking coffee and working on their timestables.

Burden’s Landing is an alternative rock band from Washington, DC. Forming around songs written by guitarist/vocalist Noah Mullinax, Burden’s Landing began in October of 2023, with Mullinax linking up with drummer Robin Zeng, bassist Chris Louis-Jorge, and keyboardist Sly Samudre.
In April of 2024, the quartet spent a week in the Blue Ridge Mountains outside of Front Royal, Virginia, self-recording their debut EP entitled Could This Be a Portal? With a 30 minute runtime, Could This Be a Portal? is an ambitious DIY release featuring familiar alternative rock sounds with influences from grunge to shoegaze to free jazz.
Could This Be a Portal? was released August 2nd, 2024 via Rat Hill Records.

DC band, Right Chipper is a bombastic Mathrock Duo. Drawing influences from progressive bands like Floral and Standards, Right Chipper fuses complex time signature exploration with catchy, pop punk melodic sensibilities. The duo consisting of Knox Engler on guitar and Lucas Kirby on Drums formed in the Spring of 2023 and have been relentlessly shredding ever since. Right Chipper aims to bring unmitigated joy to the listener through a listening experience that is meant to stretch one's ear while remaining fun and accessible.
