The Curls are a deep fried psychic rock band hailing from Chicago, USA. Known for their sprawling, chaotic live shows, Curls immerse audiences in a cacophonic spree of sample laden psychedelia, deep krautrock zones and paranoid art rock anthems-- drawing comparisons to CAN, Boredoms and Roxy Music.Described by Stereogum as "acid-fried Talking Heads," their sound has found praise from the likes of Adrian Belew (King Crimson) and R. Stevie Moore. Despite maintaining a DIY operation, the band has found itself on large festival stages like Pitchfork, Lollapalooza and SXSW. They've toured extensively in North America, opening for artists like Tame Impala, Courtney Barnett, Dehd, Sunburned Hand Of The Man, Rosali and David Nance.

The group’s debut LP American Blood is expected out late 2025 on Chicago-based label Truth Zone Records.

cellardoor is a 5-piece emo band based out of the New Hampshire seacoast. Influenced by bands like Mineral and Origami Angel, the band released their first single in February 2025, followed by their debut 5-song EP, "the bitter taste of reason", in April.

Closed Course is a 4-piece rock band based out of southern New Hampshire that blends elements of alternative, emo, punk, and grunge. The band has put out three singles, most recently Good For My Head in June 2025—and is working on an EP release to follow this fall.
