Nicholas Krolak - LIVE
“A different kind of songwriter—perhaps a different kind of jazz musician altogether. He’s like the bass playing, modern embodiment of Walt Whitman. And, just as Whitman used his prose poems, Krolak uses his music to celebrate and also reconcile the competing and contradictory nature of the two worlds he straddles: the natural and the urban."
Doors open: 7 PM
Music starts: 8 PM

Ak'chamel w/ Franks
Ak’chamel live is psychedelic folk as ritual: masked, hypnotic, droning, and deeply strange. Less like a concert, more like stumbling into a secret ceremony already underway.
Don’t sleep on the weird stuff happening in your own city.

SHAUNA DEAN COKELAND, Spiderhouse, b+2tl, AshTuesday
Shauna Dean Cokeland is an acoustic folk punk artist with lyricism beyond her years. Hailing from a small beach town in Maryland and dreaming of taking over the world as the “Last Best Pop Star,” as her long-anticipated latest single asserts, she is bold and confident, weaving tantalizing stories into her songs. Inspired by all things 2000s, Britney Spears, Eminem, Kesha, Tyler Childers, and low-rise jeans, her infectious brand of Y2K nostalgia, combined with a teenage passion for both emo and country music, has fostered a sense of community among Gen Z that’s hard to put into words.

SPLIT SILK 'Be the Divine' LP Release Show w/ 22LR, Envilittle & boycat
Listening to Split Silk’s Be the Divine following their previous series of EPs is like stepping out of sepia-toned Kansas into the technicolor world of Oz. Be the Divine is post-hardcore with an unabashed feminine perspective on our connection with the natural world, technology-induced detachment, and existing outside of society's arbitrary standards for normality. 2024’s Bitter EP offered a taste of what Split Silk could sound like as a trio. Lucca Cassandra Carver fronts the band on guitars and vocals with Will Morris and Lucía Alejandra Carreño joining her on drums and bass respectively. Split Silk is the first band where these three are playing these roles. That, alongside the trio’s faith in each other as creative partners brings a liberatory quality to their craft. You can hear them embodying the utopian ideals they espouse all throughout Be the Divine. Carver is a classicist for the great mid-century American songwriters, that reverence sees her writing post-hardcore that is as indebted to the Brill Building’s crafted arrangements as it is to Unwound’s feedback-soaked riffs. Be the Divine, is a righteous call to shed your fears and embrace the spiritually rich world we deserve and there is not a better example found in this world.

BROTHERKENZIE w/ Dirt Buyer
Brotherkenzie is the solo output from Minneapolis producer and songwriter Nathan Stocker – and, through the project, lives in the shadows, operating on the outskirts of the music industry, something he’s grown increasingly less interested in as he ages. Brotherkenzie’s music is a chasm carved from honesty and earnestness, the result teetering between catchiness and pop, but with sharp edges.

Clover-Lynn w/ A.P. Rodgers + Lee Johnson
Clover-lynn and the Hellfires is a project born from ashes of olde; of olde memories, olde melodies and an even older spirit. With her roots dug deep into the mountain sides of the Virginia Clover-Lynn pulls at those roots of her heritage in search of both uncanny and hearth. Conjuring the sounds of an old country dance hall, the smell of mold in an old church on Sunday morning, and the warmth of a story passed down from tongues that came before. With the help of her band of Hellfires, Clover-Lynn is able to create a show that reminds those away from home they can always go back and gives others a feeling of yearning for a home they've never known.
