NORTH BY NORTH

Formed in 2012, North by North is the rock & roll dream of two weirdos from Chicago. Their music has been forged through years of teen angst, twenty-something alienation, sleeping in vans, and living on a stage. Anchored by syrupy hooks, roaring guitar and bombastic drums, North by North produces a huge sound that has captivated thousands of people over hundreds of performances and festivals across the US, UK, Canada, and Europe.

A BRAVE NEW WORLD

With a fusion of rock, punk and blues, A Brave New World drives their dynamic sound with an interplay of keys and guitar with a heavy backline of bass and double drums. Original songs from their self titled 2021 album are combined with classic sleeper covers from the likes of Bob Seger, Pearl Jam and Violent Femmes. The Band: Kathy OHara vocals, Andy Fecteau vocals, Mike Beaulieu bass, Patrick Ondrozeck keys vocals , Lindsey Elias drums vocals, Matthew Fletcher guitar vocals, Kyle Pickard drums vocals.

NOT YOUR EX LOVER

Not Your Ex Lover (NYXL) is a Latina, femme, glitter-rock band based in Bend, Oregon. Their music tells the story of love and heartbreak with a grunge-pop vibe - and lots of sparkle. The band was formed in the high desert in Central Oregon in 2022, bringing together Kourtni (lead vocals, lyricist, and rhythm guitar), Julie (lead guitar and violin), Reya (bass and vocals), and KiKi (drums).

HELGA

Helga is a central Oregon DIY punk band with mild folk influences. This trio of heavy hitting sweeties has been known to incite "saloon-fight" energy. Best enjoyed live!
