DOORS 7 / MUSIC 8
A fall gothy evening of coldwave and 80s sleaze

Ronnie Stone masterfully bridges the past and future with his unique brand of contemporary synth-pop that seamlessly blends nostalgia with the cutting-edge of modern dance music. His latest album, Ride Again (Feeltrip Records), is the culmination of a decade spent dwelling in the shadows at nightclubs and warehouse parties. Inspired by the solace and epiphanies he found on the dance floor, he blends New Wave with the groovy and persistent infectiousness of Techno and House. Ronnie and his performance bandmate, Rosa Luna are passionate about creating an immersive environment in which to showcase their art and music. Their fogged-out spaces and intricate light show act as a portal into Ronnie’s retro-dystopian nightclub fantasy.

Release show for New Paltz bedroom/indie rocker Normal Person. Normal Person is the recording project of Bernard Casserly (of Cende, Trace Mountains, Spirit Was, Yours Are The Only Ears, Slight Of, and others) based in New Paltz, NY.

SOPDET is an electronic music and performance art project based out of Kingston NY lead by Kevin Halcott (Its Not Night It's Space, Spirokete etc) and a rotating cast of performing friends. Combining influences from EBM, Drone and Gabber SOPDET often incorporates theatrical performance rites who's characters and props embody the relationships of the forces of nature particular to the season. This fall seasons rite performed will be the "Invokation of Momma Death".

"Nape Neck is the kind of band that makes you want to play in a band." - Arnold de Boer, The Ex

Nape Neck (Leeds, UK) sprouts up in the agitprop section of the record store, the area where movement—geographical, calisthenic, revolutionary—is necessary. As humanity pushes against the limits of technological utopianism, Nape Neck brings you back to your body, its place in the public sphere and what it means to be a functioning person within the confines that society has erected to contain you. With every stinging guitar line, coiled bass riff and well-placed drum hit, Nape Neck is outlining a means of resistance, without sacrificing the pleasures of the flesh. The trio operate like a well-oiled machine, interlocking at odd angles then moving in perfect concert to achieve their goals. This kind of poetic clamor is a different kind of rock music, one indebted to pioneers such as The Ex, Big Flame and Red Monkey.

Beech Creeps will tsunami you. This frenetic scuzzy art rock trio is a supergroup consisting of heavy hitting rock veterans Mark Shue (Guided By Voices), Brian Chase (Yeah Yeah Yeahs), and Zach Lehrhoff (Ex Models).

$500 is a newish Hudson Valley noisey punk band!

As a multi-instrumentalist and producer, ASHER WHITE's auteurish pop vision is vulgar and transcendent: marrying skittering noise with swooping strings, lively banjo with blasts of feedback, dissonant flutes with elegant bossa nova. Since the early 2010s she has developed a sprawling discography that spans experimental drone, tropicalia, noise rock, and folk. Her heartfelt and compulsively inclusive aesthetic is often informed by her transness, her Jewish spirituality, and her ongoing negotiations with hedonism.

SPACE CAMP is an experimental two piece from South Windsor, Connecticut.

Doors 7 // Music 8

A far cry from the cool, calculated distance and reserved posture that is all-too-familiar to the indie-rock sphere, Florry, the Philly-bred septet and songwriting vehicle of bandleader Francie Medosch, are marking their territory as a band resolving to do something very different: they are having a really good time out there.

Cutting her teeth in the Philadelphia DIY scene starting in 2019 as a student at Temple University, the early days of Florry found Medosch at the end of her teenage years releasing a slew of singles and EP’s in a familiar idiom of lo-fi bedroom recordings tinged with country melancholy. A lot has changed since then. Most importantly, perhaps, the project snowballed into a barn-burning seven piece rock band in the proceeding years; and without sacrificing any of the emotional immediacy that's come to define Medosch’s brashly earnest, bleeding-heart lyrical style, you’re unlikely to find her lingering as much on the melancholy these days. Or, as Medosch plainly puts it in regards to Sounds Like... , the band’s forthcoming LP:

GOTH NIGHT!

The Treasury is the project of Troy Hancock of Richmond, VA. Cutting his teeth initially in the Raleigh NC punk scene, Hancock relocated to Richmond in 2018 and began to focus on experimenting with synths and drum machines. Following a revelatory Richmond show supporting EBM stalwarts Kontravoid and Lunacy, Hancock solidified his new, aggressive sound, combining a love for 1990s techno, post-punk, EBM, and Synth-punk into a unique and hard-hitting whole.

Excepter is a New York experimental electronic band. Founded 2002 by former No-Neck Blues Band member John Fell Ryan. Brought NNCK ethos of extended low technique free improvisation and street theater into the sound world of techno hardware: synthesizers, sequencers, drum machines, dub effects. Releases on Fusetron, Load, Kill Rock Stars, Paw Tracks, Blast First Petite, Escho. Turned accolades like Pitchfork Best New Music and cover of The Wire Magazine into reasons to go further underground. Currently operating out of Hudson Valley NY as an eternalist synth pop duo with mononymous singer, composer Lala. A new LP titled "Displacer" will be released on Excepter Records early 2026

From the outset, Clock Serum’s Contrast EP is tough. It’s four-on-the-floor body music with muscle and incessant energy—a collection of four tracks that embrace dramatic, driving percussion and volatile vocals by producer Andrew Wang. Side A begins with “Ghost”’s tenacious EBM bassline that creates a forceful headiness in contrast to elegant synth pads that lift the track from its filthiness. “Contrast,” the lead single, takes its vivacity from the likes of analog heroes Crash Course in Science with bouncy percussive elements. Wang’s punk-influenced vocals are the focus: “Put myself through hell, does it help?” he asks. “Who do I tell when you fall?”

Orcutt Shelley Miller is an avant-rock trio comprised of three highly celebrated figures of experimental music: Bill Orcutt (Harry Pussy), Steve Shelley (SonicYouth) and Ethan Miller (Howlin Rain, Comets On Fire).Following in the footsteps of the high-firing free jazz and European outer-rockbands of the ‘60s and ‘70s and the Pacific Rim’s subterranean reimagining of“rock” form in the 90s, Orcutt Shelley Miller utilize explosive group chemistry,focused intention and chance to pursue the creation of song in its rawest, purestform.

“The landscape Orcutt Shelley Miller inhabits lies deep in the stoner Americanbedrock, fed by volcanic riffage and hypnotic phrasing with rhythmic nods to theSoCal ‘60s and atonal slash piled on a mid ‘80s SST punk-fusionoid substrate,ultimately blasting a "big rock statement" that treads the line between good timesand blown minds.”

He has contributed to over one hundred physically released recordings, and his saxophone playing has been described as “authentically fearsome … just the sort of thing that fries microphones and never pays the rent.” (Bill Meyer, The Wire, March 2018). Jeff Tobias Ensemble is a new quartet performing songs from his new album One Hundredfold Now in This Age (Repeating Cloud), a collection of anti-imperialist avant-pop songs.

Featuring contributions from Sufjan Stevens, Clairo, Sean Mullins, Liam Kazar, Oliver Hill and more, Earthstar Mountain is a love letter to the Catskills and in the interconnectedness of all things: in her past, present, future and alternative selves, in her friends––here and gone––and in the mountain that peers through her windows.

DOORS 7 / MUSIC 8
The next album from Bitchin Bajas — the trio of Cooper Crain, Rob Frye and Danie Quinlivan — is near! The successor to 2022’s Bajascillators glides easily into frame, but once there, Inland See is deceptively immediate: four songs, entirely within themselves, all together forming an essential whole. Inland See is out September 26; the lead single "Skylarking" arrives today with a new visualizer featuring visuals by Nick Ciontea.

With every successive Bitchin Bajas release, we see that the real key for them is a sense of discovery, that tingle that comes when you feel something breaking through. The sky opening up. Take "Skylarking" a remarkable construction, built to and fro in the ether, but with a deceptive grasp of four-on-the-floor rhythm. A space dance that achieves completion in almost aggressive terms — aggressive like an oxygen bath! — showcasing jewels from their world music and jazz archives, then returning to their undulous source drone, riding smoothly back into silence. The stuff that fills this Inland See holds you up powerfully, as if you’re floating, saltwater or helium-wise — effervescent, effortless, elemental.

This music was mostly written on the road. It’s an unusual happening for Bitchin Bajas!

They were open for it, though — the landmarked Bajascillators kept them out there for a while, and when inspiration struck, there they're rolling. When it was time to render it to tape and find the record there, they did the whole thing at Electrical Audio, recorded in Studio B by Cooper. Recording all together in the room there lent a sense of space, which they dug and captured as natural as possible. No reverb at all added after the fact. Some additional recording and mixing was done at home by the Bajas, then Phil Baljeu did up the art. Soon enough, Inland See is flowing toward you, through the hi-fi — and you feel it all in the air.

From the first note, Nadler’s lush voice and intricate fingerpicking are front and center. She layers Everly Brothers–style harmonies over dreamlike, lonesome soundscapes—fuzzed‑out distortion, Hammond organ, and ominous synthesizers—that elevate her warm vulnerability with texture and atmosphere. Each track unfolds like a vignette of a life lived, delivering emotional weight that resonates with quiet intensity.

Helm is Luke Younger, a London-based sound artist and musician. He has released five studio albums and three EPs of textural experimental music, exploring a relationship between acoustic, electronic and real-world sounds. His first album ‘To An End’ was released on his own label ALTER in 2010. Influenced by 20th century electroacoustic music and Britain’s esoteric post-industrial underground, the record contained two long-form pieces that mixed haunting, respiratory-themed tape music with warm meditative ambience. ‘Cryptography’ followed a year later via Graham Lambkin’s KYE as a five-part suite of glacial drone, reconfigured gamelan clusters and searing metallic resonance. Warmly received by the press and underground community alike, it helped to establish him as a serious new voice in experimental music.

Performer, Composer, Improviser, Trumpeter Chris Ryan Williams is an interdisciplinary artist and musician based in Brooklyn, NY. His work takes the form of electroacoustic composition and performance installation, dealing with the decoding of family history, ambience, and time-space compression.

MEMORIALS + ANIMAL SURRENDER

Tickets at the door
DOORS 7 // MUSIC 8


MEMORIALS, the duo consisting of Verity Susman and Matthew Simms (previously of Electrelane and Wire), create panoramic pop that draws on both the familiar and the strange, while also treading new ground. With their playful and experimental style, combined with a love of good tunes, they sit comfortably alongside Broadcast, Portishead, Arthur Russell, The Velvet Underground, Yo La Tengo and Tortoise. They are currently on tour supporting Stereolab and lucky for us they happen to have an off night.

‘Memorial Waterslides’ is the debut album from MEMORIALS. This is an otherworldly, surrealist pop record that is both timeless and timely, displaying a rare mix of classic songwriting and avant-garde attitudes.

The album is awash with imagery evoking a lost future, a veiled present and a daydreamed past, each song playing a role in creating a swirling, widescreen atmosphere, the listener taken along for the ride. Produced entirely by the two of them, the sound of the record was inspired by the reel-to-reel tape experiments they first played around with onstage as they began to develop their multi-layered recordings for live performances as a duo.

Following their acclaimed 2023 soundtracks ‘Women Against The Bomb’ and ‘Tramps!’, a European tour with Stereolab (they’ve been called “Stereolab’s evil twin”) and a new music commission from the Centre Pompidou in Paris, Verity and Matthew arrived at MEMORIALS in reverse, escaping their soundtracking day jobs to create cosmic journeys through the garden shed into psychedelic rock, far-out folk and wild analogue electronics.

“Everything you’d expect from a duo adept in the strange and esoteric, while also in thrall to pop music’s melodic bent.” - The Quietus

“Animal, Surrender!” is Peter Kerlin (Sunwatchers and Chris Forsyth & Solar Motel Band) and drummer Rob Smith (Grey/Smith, Rhyton, Pigeons, D. Charles Spear). Kerlin leads the duo through a set of bass-driven compositions and interpretations, incorporating spare electronics through a post-rock/weird-folk trance with intricate and sometimes blasted interplay between the rhythm section.

The Clearwater Swimmers is the primary songwriting vehicle for Sumner Bright, a multi-instrumentalist based in NYC and Portland, ME. Joined by Timothy Graff on drums, Sander Casale on lead guitar, and Connor Kennedy on bass, the group takes the most-often acoustic, at-home demos of Bright and shifts them into wading, contemplative alternative rock. Split between NYC, ME, NH, and MA, when they come together, the group draws comparisons to Crazy Horse's ”Zuma" era, Acetone, and other folk rock moguls from the 90s and early 2000s.

Dummy — the Los Angeles band comprised of Alex Ewell, Emma Maatman, Nathan O’Dell, and Joe Trainor — announces its new album, Free Energy, out September 6th on Trouble In Mind Records, and shares the lead single/video, “Nullspace.” Pop has always been a big part of Dummy’s sound, but it manifests differently on Free Energy. Sometimes it’s quite literal (and funny), such as the bubbly synth sequence made with a Korg EM1 popping all over lead single “Nullspace,” which features a melody written by O’Dell and is the song the band calls the record’s “sonic mission statement and really influenced by Mark Van Hoen, especially the cut-up dreamy dance-pop he was making on the Locust record Morning Light.”

Empath is an American noise punk band. They have released one album and several EPs, and are currently signed to Fat Possum Records.

New Orthodox is led by New York state-based multi-instrumentalist Nicholas Merz. The band's ethos leans heavily into minimalist repetition, sonic experimentation, and lyrical insights that give way to live performances and recordings that utilize space and silence to imitate the human experience.

Guerilla Toss met in 2012, crawling out of the skronky psychedelic punk fairytale that was their Boston DIY scene. Now based in New York, the currently touring and always recording art rock band have fully crystalized their brilliantly unhinged music. Along the way, they’ve played alongside Built to Spill and Parquet Courts, Os Mutantes and Mdou Moctar. And they’ve toured all around the world, hitting every festival from Pitchfork in London, to Treefort, to the Primavera Weekender to Pickathon.

In 2022, the band’s colorful dance punk took the form of Famously Alive, their Sup Pop debut. The record is the latest iteration of a carefully honed vision, an exploration of what it means to be alive (famously), to survive, to find strength in that survival, to be happy. The record was a revelation. A lazy river ride done while wielding a jackhammer. Electroclash by way of fucked up no wave. ESG by way of PiL by way of Brian Eno by way of Sonic Youth. Not long after, the band went on tour with Pavement, playing some of the biggest venues of their career.

Our friend Ged is having his birthday party at Tubby's too. He'll be bleeping and swishily blooping.

Weston Minissali is a Kingston, NY–based composer, vocalist, and producer who creates music under the moniker Erica Eso. A longtime participant in New York’s experimental music scene, Minissali weaves electronic avant-garde into ornate art-pop. Since founding Erica Eso in 2015, he has released music on NNA Tapes, Ramp Local, and Hausu Mountain, continually evolving the project’s sound and live configurations. His latest album, Songs In My Pocket Like Grains of Sand, marks a shift toward a more intimate, solo-driven process that pairs arhythmic and austere production with clarion vocals. The show will feature a brand new lineup featuring Jared Ashdown (Openhead) and Kim Anderson.

MAYA ONGAKU + RUBY OF THANKS + EAMON LEBOW

TICKETS AT THE DOOR
Doors 7 // Music 8
Hailing from the seaside communities surrounding Enoshima, a small island located 50 km southwest of Tokyo, maya ongaku is a ragtag collective of local musicians whose brand of earthy psychedelia transcends widely beyond the roots of their inner souls. The name derives not from any kind of ancient civilization, but rather a neologism defined as the imagined view outside one’s field of vision.

The band—currently a trio of Tsutomu Sonoda, Ryota Takano, and Shoei Ikeda—finds sanctuary at the Ace General Store, a beachy vintage shop and salon-like space just hidden from sight from the bustling, touristy riverside Subana Street. Between discussions on music and art, curating the vinyl section and manning the register, and chatting up with locals young and old, the members find time to jam and record their spontaneous ideas in the studio tucked away in the back. It’s in this unlikely setting where maya ongaku finds its origins, the culmination of what Sonoda describes as 自然発生 (shizen hassei), meaning spontaneous generation, or the supposed production of living organisms from nonliving matter.

Ruby of Thanks - It's about time we got Andy Weaver back in tub. That dude does not text back! haGiven Weaver’s background playing with artists such as Anna St. Louis, Widowspeak, Hand Habits, and John Andrews, it’s no surprise the man behind Ruby of Thanks has a knack for penning breezy ‘n’ mystical indie folk in the spirit of Little Wings, Cut Worms, or just about anything on the seminal Woodsist label. We love this stuff!

Eamon Lebow is a Catskill Mountains based guitarist originally from Phoenix, Arizona. After cutting his teeth in a variety of loud and aggressive Brooklyn bands (Eye Röller, Groupie, Van Goose) he relocated to rural upstate New York and began to explore more diverse and contemplative sounds inspired as much by John Fahey and Bert Jansch as Brian Eno, Erkin Koray and Les Rallizes Dénudés.

WOMBO + SHOWER CURTAIN

Tickets at the door
DOORS 7 / MUSIC 8

Wombo is the Louisville-bred art-rock trio of Sydney Chadwick (vocals / bass), Cameron Lowe (guitar), and Joel Taylor (drums). Since forming in 2016, Wombo have crafted 2 LPs and 3 extended plays that twist post-punk structures into uncanny shapes, toured around the world, and gained praise from Pitchfork, The Fader, CLASH, and more.

Drawing inspiration from invented fantasies as much as reality’s own absurdities, the “subtle surrealism” (FLOOD) of Wombo’s take on indie rock is often thrilling, always fresh, and ever-so catchy. Their distinct combination of “droning guitars, frenetic chords, and angular melodies” (UPROXX) have earned Wombo a dedicated fanbase, eager to see which direction the trio heads next.

Ella Hue is a lyric-forward multi-disciplinary artist whose performances unravel like spells—gritty, tender, and soul-baring. Their energetic punk poetics dance with the wars that rage inside of us. Warm grit and ready to howl

Harrison Basch is a songwriter/instrumentalist born and raised in the Hudson Valley, New York. He has performed in several groups, on the west and east coasts, either playing his own songs or drumming for the likes of Emily Ritz, Credit Electric, or The Long Road Society artists.

Harrison’s lyricism is revolved around love, death, and nature. His music is both soulful heart folk and dark jangly experimental landscapes. His songs reflect the times that we live in and beckon the audience to engage honestly.

Nic Panken is a songwriter, guitar player and singer who grew up in Brooklyn and now resides in Kingston, NY. His first record of solo material will come out later this year, co-produced with multi-instrumentalist Jared Samuel. Previously he fronted New York City-based band Spirit Family Reunion, releasing several records and touring extensively throughout North America and Europe, performing at Austin City Limits, Newport Folk Festival and on NPR's Tiny Desk.

Romperayo
, led by drummer Pedro Ojeda, is one of the Colombian bands redefining the new Tropical sound out of Bogotá, along with Meridian Brothers, Frente Cumbiero and Los Pirañas - and it is no coincidence that Pedro should be involved with 3 out of those 4 bands.

A virtuoso drummer and percussionist who remains firmly rooted in tropical dance rhythms, Pedro mixes sounds from both Colombian coasts with accordion and light electronic elements. In addition to Pedro, the trio will be comprised of Nicolas Eckardt (of La Sonora Mazuren) and Ivan Medellin (of Conjunto Media Luna). Their shows have universal appeal and can please dancers, musicians and fans of cumbia and champeta as well as psych.rock and experimental music enthusiasts from all the Americas.

Romperayo has been touring Europe and South America for over a decade, but this is their first U.S. tour.
