Already Late is a band shaped by a long list of genres and genders. On top of a variety of guitars, catchy hooks (in both English and Japanese), funky bass lines and drum beats as energized as a riot at a punk rock show, they have managed to find spots in their set for electronics, as well as some ukulele. Thanks to their genre-crossing and bilingual tracks, their eccentric live shows promise to excite a diverse range of crowds.
Ari Voxx is DC’s Dreamy Pop Princess. Well-versed in many different music worlds, she focuses on writing music that is eclectic and authentically her, transcending genres. With a sound heavily inspired by the moods and vibes of 80s/90s new-wave and pop artists, a performance from Ari Voxx and The Sad Lads casts a nostalgic atmosphere over the listener. Expect to experience misty soundwaves propelled by pulsating beats, generously draped with precise, dynamic vocals.
Boy Meets Pearl are queer-fronted and oddly orchestrated, with a sound reminiscent of a carnival midway, these carousel punks play exciting new originals inspired by sea shanties, circus waltzes, and Victorian Music Hall singalongs.
Blood Family Reunion are a DC-based dream pop band that makes joyful music for lost souls and broken vessels. A shiny thing in the dirty sand. Somber swells and lyrical riffs from Joe King's guitars overlay Stephen Lilly's driving bass melodies and Donovan Lessard's foundation beats, glimmering crashes. Pam Carder sings about tragedies, family legends, and time travel. Our first album 'Lucky Mutation' was released in March 2024.
Rosslyn Station is Guinevere Tully, an anti-folk artist from Herndon, Virginia. Recorded cheap and released for free, her songs reach gently into past hurts and present despair for something kind to share. She sings about heartbreak, depression, and dysphoria with softness and sincerity in the stubborn hope that you'll sing along.
