SAVOIR ADORE: (Brooklyn)
Savoir Adore create "Fantasy Rock" that recalls the finest moments of indie-pop of the 80's, 90's and 00's while at the same time remaining unique and fresh. They will be touring the North-East to promote their LP, In The Wooded Forrest, released in August on Cantora Records (former MGMT, Violens, Francis and the Lights).

Recently played with: Bear Hands, Francis & The Lights, Phantogram

MON KHMER: (Brooklyn)
"Mon Khmer's songs feel heavy and dense, but in the best possible way - you can pick up something different with each listen. Lots of influences are at work, swirling together into a mass of current trends and classic indie-rock tradition, making for something you can really sink your teeth into. Yet another Brooklyn to watch out for." - L Magazine

Recently played with: Micachu & The Shapes, Dragons of Zynth, Rumspringa

THE FACTORY PARTY: (One of our favorite locals)
""The Factory Party, After Death There Is Nothing: With their yelpy Fall vocals and cylindrical whooshes of post-Joy Division guitar, Houston quartet The Factory Party has learned the lessons of the 1980s Manchester-based record label from which it takes its name well. More encouragingly, After Death There Is Nothing makes a better-than-adequate alternative to the all-too-infrequent visits of UK bands of a more recent vintage like Kings of Leon openers/ACL Fest stunners White Lies"".
