Monsoon
Monsoon is a two-piece indie rock band from Athens, Georgia who weave together unorthodox styles to create music that dips between the conscious and subconscious. Their new album Ghost Party is now available on all streaming platforms. After the release of Monsoon's debut album Ride A’Rolla the band garnered the attention of Toyota and was contacted about using the title track for a Toyota Corolla commercial. From there, the placement landed a spot just after the 2016 Super Bowl half-time show and the band was invited to participate in the world’s first “360 multi-cam music video” launched by Google. Between the reach of the placements and touring, Monsoon gained a small cult-like following along the East Coast. Now, after the release of Ghost Party in 2022, Monsoon stays busy, relentlessly touring up and down the East Coast, Midwest, and Canada.

Pickaxe
Some bands form easily and naturally. Pickaxe is not one of them. Conceived against the backdrop of a global pandemic and forged through trial and error, false starts, and frustrations, the Washington DC female-fronted four-piece melds years' worth of loneliness, tragedy, addiction, political upheaval, and lost love into a provocative and punishing post-hardcore soundscape influenced as much by the storied punk scene of the band’s hometown as by the grunge and metal that dominated rock radio airwaves during the members’ youths.

Grimm Winter
Founded in DC, Grimm Winter is a symphonic blend of 90s alt/indie-rock, punk, and folk music. With a strong emphasis on storytelling & modern-day mythologies, evocative metaphors & melodies, the band weaves together stories and songs that blur the line between literal and fantastical.
