45 GRAVE
Forming in 1979 from Hollywood, 45 Grave scorched MTV with their hit songs “Evil” and “Partytime” – from the cult classic movie “Return of the Living Dead”. Today the Queen of Deathrock, Dinah Cancer, performs all the 45 Grave favorites from the legendary album Sleep in Safety as well as modern tracks like “Night of the Demons” from the 2010 movie release. There may even be a few from the elusive album “Autopsy”.
DARK RIDE
The Bay Area's premiere "Horror-Punk" band, Dark Ride has quickly established a following with their melodic, punk-rock anthems influenced by the likes of The Misfits, AFI and Alkaline Trio. Since the release of their debut EP in 2021 has played all over the US and will soon be releasing their first full length record "Blade Manor". The passion project of Santa Cruz native Emilio Menze (Stellar Corpses, Ambivalence, Plan 9).
CRITICAL RESPONSE
Since their debut in 2022, Critical Response, led by charismatic frontwomen Celina Bottini, has been wowing audiences around the SF and Monterey Bay area. Their sound is a mix of old-school punk, rock, grunge, and blues, melding it into a raw, relentless and uncompromising mix.
While not overtly political, Bottini writes to empower women. She rants, screams, and sings with conviction, often all in the same song. The rhythm section includes Mark Hanford on bass and backing vocals (ex-Haggis – Boise, ID and SA90, of which Bottini was also a member) and Nick Priess. They lay down a solid backbeat for the grungy guitar of Ms. Lani White, teacher by day, rocker by night.
