CHRIS STAPLES
When American singer-songwriter Chris Staples settled into the quiet rhythm of Richmond, VA—where deer graze through backyards and rabbits dart across early morning sidewalks—he was granted a small gift: stillness. In a career that has stretched from Florida to Washington and witnessed the release of 7 studio albums, Staples hasn't had the kind of domestic ease and opportunity to reflect on more than the immediate past. But in 2023, he was afforded time for deeper, longer looks backward. It was in these quiet moments that 𝘋𝘰𝘯'𝘵 𝘞𝘰𝘳𝘳𝘺 began to take shape.
VERITY DEN
"Verity Den plays a soft-focus, trance-state shoegaze with glimmers of Zelienople, Bark Psychosis, and Movietone. The band, out of North Carolina, is comprised of Casey Proctor, Trevor Reece, and Mike Wallace, all three of the DIY veterans who formed the band in early 2023. Reviewing their 2024 self-title debut, Jennifer Kelly wrote, "Though their album is enjoyable as rock, it is very clearly not just that; it pools and looms and gently probes improvisatory effected guitar zones that sit pretty far from conventional song structures." – 𝘋𝘶𝘴𝘵𝘦𝘥 Magazine
