With a billion-streaming single “Hideaway,” multiple JUNO Award wins, and world-class collaborations with Diplo, Skrillex, deadmau5, Duran Duran, and Francis Mercier, Kiesza has proven herself to be one of the most unique and zeitgeist-defining artists.

Krooked Kings Bio

In a world where authenticity is often sacrificed, Krooked Kings stand as a beacon of unabashed vulnerability and raw emotion. Their indie rock sound is a candid reflection of their influences, drawing from the ornate and biting guitar arrangements of The Strokes, the introspective depth of Bon Iver, and the easygoing charm of Peach Pit. But while these inspirations shape their musical foundation, it's the band's own narrative that sets them apart.

At the heart of Krooked Kings’ music is a brutally honest portrayal of the twenty-something experience in America—capturing the restlessness, dreams, and disillusionments of a generation navigating the complexities of modern life. Their lyrics resonate with the tumultuous yet exhilarating journey of coming of age, making each song a poignant and relatable exploration of life's ups and downs.

Krooked Kings burst onto the scene with a fervor that quickly captivated audiences across Europe and North America, culminating in a debut tour that left an indelible mark on their fans. Their ability to connect on a profound level is evident not just in their packed shows but also in their impressive digital footprint. With over 70 million streams on their albums, their music has reverberated across the globe, cementing their status as a rising force in indie rock.

Their presence isn’t just isolated to the realm of underground fans and loyal listeners, having gained critical acclaim and placements on some of Spotify’s most sought after playlists in the genre including “Today’s Indie Rock”, “Feel Good Indie Rock”, “Marrow”, and many more.

With their fearless approach to songwriting and an ever-expanding fanbase, they’re poised to redefine the boundaries of indie rock and make their mark on the world stage.

Artist Bio:

WINGTIPS are a Midwest-based electro pop duo consisting of Vincent Segretario and Hannah Avalon. The band’s sonics are best described as an androgynous sound of transition. Interpolating darkly shimmering layers of angular guitar and pulsating darkwave beats, WINGTIPS sharpen their anthemic rush with an increasing penchant for melody and an atmosphere equally informed by post-punk as sweeping electronica.

Their debut full-length, EXPOSURE THERAPY released in 2019, is a contextualization of new romantic for post-millennial end times, and a refreshing mix of synthpop and darkwave with hooks so compelling they are cinematic in scope. In September 2021, WINGTIPS released their sophomore LP, CUTTING ROOM FLOOR. The record is a momentous shift from a previous stylistically darkwave approach into a realm of maximalist dark pop, and even techno body music, while also maintaining many of the sonic textures from whence the band came.

In 2024, WINGTIPS will release their third full-length record, ON TRIAL. Featuring collaborations with the likes of TIM CAPPELLO (The Lost Boys, Tina Turner Band), and the cutting edge New York-based RONNIE STONE, the album is yet another evolutionary shift for the band into an even more advanced musical identity. Tonally, the dichotomy between tracks marks the furthered maturity of WINGTIPS’ approach to their unique blend of dark dance music, and texturally lush dream pop. The album also marks the first release where the entirety of recording, mixing, and post-production was completed by the band themselves, maintaining a core ethos that DIY is key to precisely communicating artistic language.

Mystery Skulls Bio:

Luis Dubuc was looking for a change of pace when he started his dance/electro-soul act, Mystery Skulls in 2011. And what started off as a new passion project quickly turned into something larger than life.

Fans were quickly enchanted by the upbeat, groovy sounds Mystery Skulls was producing. As fans grew rabid for more content, Luis continued to produce new and exciting music that they could lose themselves in. The result is an impressive discography that has amassed over 100 million streams and nearly 550,000 monthly listeners on Spotify alone.

Back to Life (2019) and Now or Never (2020), the latest two full length albums from Mystery Skulls have shown that there’s no limit to the project’s success. Having self-produced and self-released both albums, Luis poured himself into each album and the fans immediately connected with that. This landed both albums at #1 on the iTunes Electronic charts, surpassing legendary acts like The Chemicals Brothers and Moby.

Following the release of Back to Life, Mystery Skulls hit the road, aiming to reach as many fans as possible, selling out shows throughout North America and the UK. Luis is passionate about creating powerful moments of joy and release for fans through his live sets, and because of that he has been able to take Mystery Skulls to a wide array of events from the Voodoo Music and Arts Experience, to opening for Busta Rhymes at the Cannes Film Festival, and the ESPN X-Games.

Every live set is a chance to let go. Mystery Skulls adds a layer of intrigue to each performance with his backlit set, leaving him a shadowy, pulsating figure in the night. The anonymity translates onto his diverse set of fans, leading them to feel free to lose themselves on the dance floor for the evening.

King Buffalo

Las Vegas, NV

Weds, Dec 11

Doors 7pm

Bio:

King Buffalo is the trio of vocalist/guitarist Sean McVay, bassist Dan Reynolds, and drummer Scott Donaldson. Since forming in 2013, the self-proclaimed "heavy psych" band has made its name via 4 Full-lengths, 4EPs, and tours with Clutch, Uncle Acid and the Deadbeats, All Them Witches, The Sword, and Elder.

King Buffalo will issue their fifth full-length, Regenerator, on Sept. 2, 2022, as a self-release in North America and through Stickman Records in Europe. Preorders will be available on June 10th via http://kingbuffalo.bigcartel.com.

Written and recorded by the band with mixing and engineering by Sean McVay and mastering by Bernie Matthews, the seven-song outing is the third in King Buffalo’s stated ‘pandemic trilogy,’ following Two of 2021’s Best Albums in The Burden of Restlessness and Acheron.

Both of those albums – like 2018’s Longing to Be the Mountain, 2016’s debut, Orion, and the various EPs and other offerings they’ve made over the last eight years – made bold declarations about who King Buffalo are as a band, and Regenerator is no different. As McVay, Reynolds and Donaldson continue to explore the outer reaches of modern psychedelic songcraft, melding progressive rhythms, drifting atmospheres and accompanying surges of electricity, the new collection only further establishes them as one of the brightest lights shining in underground rock today.

As the third of three, Regenerator seems inherently to tie together the two LPs most immediately before it, and as King Buffalo unfold the leadoff title-track across nine and half minutes, it becomes clear just how truly they have marked out their own sonic presence. The later melodic highlight “Mammoth” – with McVay’s most confident vocal yet – shimmers with hope that somehow doesn’t come across as desperate, and as “Hours” engages classic space rock and the closing “Firmament” summarizes the first, second and third series installments, the final chapter of this trilogy becomes the essential cornerstone of King Buffalo’s work to-date.

The band returned to live activity late last year, touring alongside Clutch and more recently a full North American spring tour with Uncle Acid and the Deadbeats. By the time Regenerator arrives, they will have completed a UK and European headlining tour with festival appearances in Germany, the Netherlands, Austria, Switzerland, Portugal, Belgium and Denmark.

About:

Fishbone is a band.  Fishbone is Red Hot.  

Starting in Junior High School as part of the bussing program transporting students to schools within or outside their local school districts as a means of rectifying racial segregation, Fishbone were breaking stereotypes.  

This essentially was the spark that started the bands creative and influential drive that would lay the foundation that other bands would follow for decades to follow.

Born out of the punk rock scene of Los Angeles, CA, Fishbone came out as a force of songs and live energy leaving bands not wanting to follow them.  A feeling that continues today.

Signed to Columbia Records in 1984, Fishbone released 4 albums and 3 ep’s and toured the world headlining shows, festivals and leaving people stunned and still one of the best shows ever seen.  A constant statement that still is used today from fans to artists that shared the stage with them.

After years of touring and rotating members, Fishbone in 2024 is back to their most solid line up which includes original members, Angelo Moore (vocals/Saxophone), Chris Dowd (Keys/Vocals), Dirty Walt (Trumpet/Vocals), rounding it out with drummer, Hassan Hurd, Aryon Davis and Mark Phillips.

With their last critically and fan acclaimed EP recorded produced by Fat Mike of NOFX that came out on Fat Wreck Chords in 2023, in 2024, Fishbone is getting ready to reclaim their live touring throne, leave the audience wanting more, thinking more, influencing younger bands, and paving the foundation and legacy they have been laying for decades. #FuckRacism

Flamingosis splices together old school soul, wild funk, and D.I.Y. Electronic with a radiant message meant for any moment.

After generating 100 million streams, attracting 100k cumulative social media followers, and receiving acclaim from Pitchfork, MTV, Thissongissick, and many more, the New Jersey-raised and brooklyn-based artist and producer embeds an important affirmation within the framework of his next full-length album, "Daymaker".

Since 2012, he has carved out a niche of his own in addition to collaborating in the studio and on stage with Big Gigantic, Griz, Madeon, Tokimonsta, and Matoma, among others.

Not to mention, he graced the bills of festivals such as Austin City Limits, Electric Forest, Okeechobee, Holy Ship!, and Voodoo Music + arts, to name a few. Critical acclaim followed with Pitchfork describing “believe in me” as “a new summer anthem.” regarding 2016’s bright moments, mtv wrote, “the producer’s new album weaves smooth 1970s and 1980s samples into perfect grooves.”

In 2019, he began to widen the sonic palette. For the first time, he hit the studio with collaborators to architect what would become daymaker. He worked closely with an all-star cast of musicians, including keyboardist Borahm Lee , Jeff Franca , Eddie Roberts , Hunter Roberts, hip-hop funk duo recess, Mike Tallman of funk and roots outfit euforquestra and the color red label, and more. Now, he introduces daymaker with a brazilian bounce, tropical house flavor, and chilled beats on lead single “wild summer.”

Gallant Bio:

Alternative R&B artist Gallant is known for a striking falsetto, heartfelt narratives, and a seemingly natural ability to adapt to any production style. The singer and songwriter made his full-length debut with the Grammy-nominated Ology (2016), and has since issued even more vulnerable and expressive projects such as Sweet Insomnia (2019), Neptune (2021), and Zinc. (2024). Between the latter two, he teamed with Terrace Martin to record a short, self-titled album under the name sneek.

A native of Maryland, Christopher Gallant attended New York University and relocated to Los Angeles following graduation. Across 2013 and 2014, he self-released a series of dusky singles, as well as an EP, Zebra. Having impressed Jake Udell, manager of EDM acts Krewella and ZHU, Gallant then associated with David Dann's Mind of a Genius label, the Warner Bros.-supported outlet for the 2015 releases "Open Up," "Talking in Your Sleep," "Learn to Fly" (a Foo Fighters cover), and "Weight in Gold." Like the earlier tracks, these songs enhanced Gallant's expressive vocals with deep-probing bass and shadowy layers of percussion and keyboards.

His debut album, Ology, followed in 2016 along with "Skipping Stones," a single co-produced by Adrian Younge and Stint that featured guest vocalist Jhené Aiko. A number 39 hit on Billboard's R&B/hip-hop chart, Ology was later nominated for a 2016 Grammy Award in the category of Best Urban Contemporary Album. A string of singles and collaborations during the next couple years led to the 2019 release of Sweet Insomnia, Gallant's second full-length, with Sabrina Claudio and 6LACK as guest vocalists.

Gallant then went independent, and in March 2021 returned with Neptune, a self-released EP featuring appearances from Brandy, Arin Ray, and VanJess. In 2023, he linked with Terrace Martin for his most organic recording, issued under the duo alias sneek. Released that November, sneek was highlighted by the lead single "311!," featuring trumpet from Keyon Harrold and keyboards from Robert Glasper. Gallant made his third solo full-length primarily with Latin Grammy-nominated producer Ariza (Camilo, Dua Lipa, Lalah Hathaway) and additional assistance from the likes of Stint, Biako, and Ralph Castelli. The swirling album, titled Zinc., landed in September 2024. The set, featuring a duet with Nao, further blurred genre distinctions with alternately airy and driving rhythms hinting at rock and drum'n'bass without ever completely dissociating from R&B.

Geographer Bio

Formed in San Francisco, Geographer is the moniker for the now Los Angeles-based Mike Deni. Part social scientist, part troubadour, if Geographer is an expert at anything, it’s precisely chronicling life’s imperfections. He has headlined many national tours, played Outside Lands, Just Like Heaven, Firefly, Treefort, and other festivals, released four critically acclaimed albums, including 2023’s A Mirror Brightly, and has performed with such musical luminaries as The Flaming Lips, Young The Giant, Tycho, K.Flay, Ratatat, Betty Who, and Tokyo Police Club.

Deni is celebrating the 15 year anniversary of his Seminal EP Animal Shapes with a tour and a special vinyl reissue. He’ll be performing the EP in its entirety, as well as songs from his new album and his ever growing catalog of thoughtful and heartfelt music.

About “A Mirror Brightly,” Deni says, “I focused on my experience moving through the world: feeling like an outcast, being denied love in its many forms, and struggling to find meaning in an existence that looked increasingly like a void the more I peered into the glass,” Deni says. Although A Mirror Brightly (out February 23, 2024, Nettwerk Records) is indeed deeply personal, it’s not simply autobiographical like his previous releases. “This record takes that existential shock but explores it through humanity as a whole, rather than just me as an individual.”

ACTORS Bio

“ Vancouver post-punk outfit ACTORS have released a new song. 'In Real Life' is available wherever you get your music now via Toronto's Artoffact Records.

Unsurprisingly for a band whose music has been featured on several Netflix tv series, the new song has a cinematic presence from beginning to end. With otherworldly production (courtesy of bandleader Jason Corbett) 'In Real Life' subtly introduces a myriad of different elements throughout its three minutes and 15 seconds run time. Intertwining ominous beats, ethereal synth sounds, and perfectly placed electric guitars, while leaving ample room for hard hitting bass lines and highly-relatable lyrics, the track comes ready made for TV. Picture an episode of your favourite TV show, when the main character is walking down the street in reflection, knowing they were meant for so much more and ready to take on the world...

On the song, Jason comments:
"Writing and recording music is a kind of creative dance. You don’t always know who’s leading. You just do your best to listen and not get in the way.

'In Real Life' is the beginning of another chapter of the ACTORS journey." 

ACTORS began by releasing a string of popular singles, starting with “Post Traumatic Love” in 2012 and building a dedicated fanbase while eschewing a debut album release for the band’s first six years of existence. In 2018, the Jason Corbett-led foursome signed with Toronto-based Artoffact Recordsand released its long-awaited debut, It Will Come to You, quickly becoming one of the marquee acts on the label and following with their sophomore release 'Acts of Worship' in 2021. In Late 2020, ACTORS announced a new single, “Love U More,” with Juno-Award winning director Peter Ricqcontributing his talents to the accompanying video.

Songs like “L’appel du Vide,” “Slaves,” “Face Meets Glass,” and “Bury Me” are bangers that glisten via Corbett’s production job: infectious beats propelled by the warm layers of synth, bass, and drums contributed by the rest of the band. Corbett writes, produces, mixes, and masters all ACTORS music at his own Vancouver studio, Jacknife Sound and names David Bowie as a fundamental influence – Bowie’s sense of confidence and creativity are in full effect on It Will Come to You. Much more than a retro act, this is music that stands all on its own, full of life and complete with unforgettable hooks. Perhaps best described as a “post-post-punk” band, ACTORS belongs in the mix alongside bands like The Soft Moon and Cold Cave. 

ACTORS have spent the last several years touring the USA, Canada, and Europe, while hitting many of the best-loved festivals, including Amphifest, Wave-Gotik-Treffen, Cold Waves, Substance, Death Disco, Verboden and many more.”
