Slow Burning Daydream
Slow Burning Daydream is a thrash-pop band based in Philadelphia, PA, embodying high energy and stinging political activism on every stage they hit. What started in 2018 as a solo project by guitarist and lead-vocalist Elijah Senter, has since evolved into a four-piece powerhouse of a band with the additions of drummer Trent Huber, guitarist Catharine Daubert, and bassist JD Joseph.
It Helps Me Sleep
It Helps Me Sleep brings killer instrumentation to each song to create a special type of magic within the post-hardcore/5th wave emo genres. This four-piece band from Philadelphia, PA, is made up of lead-vocalist Allie Bilger, guitarist and backing-vocalist Catharine Daubert, drummer Elijah Senter, and bassist Nick Passio.
The Vault
The Vault combines dreamy vocals and swelling instrumentals to bring their ethereal vision to the emo/rock sound. This five-piece band from Moncton, New Brunswick, is made up of lead-singer Hanna, guitarist and backing-vocalist Mirren, guitarist Dave, drummer Tammi, and bassist Becca.
The Great Chain
The Great Chain is a Doom/Metal power trio from Fredericton, New Brunswick, made up of guitarist Ted Parrot, drummer Shamus Marshall, and bassist Marcel Chamorro. This instrumental band may be sans vocalists, but their tight guitar solos and haunting basslines speak for themselves.
Hardcore punk via noise rock outfit Mulch (Montréal, QC) is composed of Rose Cormier (vocals, synthesizer), William Trottier-Jackson (bass), Timothy Aaron Bryan (guitar), and Michael Tomizzi (drums). Known for their explosive live sets, which feature a hefty dose of dissonant chord changes, off-kilter rhythms, and incendiary vocals, the group are active members of Montréal's resurgent hardcore music scene, sharing the stage with the likes of PyPy, Faze, and Béton Armé. The four-piece has released two EPs, Nothing Grows Out Of Dried Flowers and Nuance Maximum, as well as a split with Population II entitled Mulchulation II.
