✨Friday, December 6th, The Keystones are throwing a holiday party to celebrate the release of their new EP!
✨The Keystones are a hard-rock rock band based in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. Born in Waukesha, the very same place as the electric guitar, the members of this 4-piece pay homage to the biggest names in 2000s modern rock — Queens of the Stone Age, Rage Against the Machine, Royal Blood, Arctic Monkeys — all while carving out a frenetic stadium sound that brings something entirely new to the genre.

✨With a blend of Brit-indie-grunge and new-age alternative riffs, the band is prepared to do more than just play shows that put audiences on their feet — they want to make the town that created the guitar as we know it proud.

✨Friday, December 20th The Cooperage presents an evening of musical soundscapes on the Harborfront.

✨For two decades, Collections of Colonies of Bees have existed in various forms and incarnations, beginning with Chris Rosenau and Jon Mueller (who split time with post-rock band Pele ).
From there, the line-up grew and evolved. At one time, Nick Sanborn — currently in the spotlight as one-half of Sylvan Esso — counted himself as a member. At another, the group joined forces with Bon Iver ’s Justin Vernon to release two albums under the moniker Volcano Choir . (In fact, it was Vernon who proclaimed of his collaborators: “If the world was perfect, they would be as big as U2.”)
Never content to paint the soundscape twice, the previously instrumental Bees now come outfitted with vocalist Marielle Allschwang and a new full-length, HAWAII , that finds the Wisconsin-based ensemble harvesting the fertile intersection between experimental and pop to maximum effect.

✨ASTRAL HAND is a 4-piece heavy-psych band that channels a deeply cosmic mood. By using synth-driven melodies, fuzzed-out guitar riffs, thundering drums, and lyrical themes meditating on interstellar deities, ASTRAL HAND searches for life and love in the universe at large.

Since releasing their debut album, Lords Of Data, with Romanus Records in 2023, they have been slowly honing a new batch of songs for their sophomore album.
-——
✨Known Moons is an alternative-indie rock band made up of current and former members of M.A.G.S., Paper Holland, Flat Teeth, The Fatty Acids and Dinner Set Gang. The band released its debut EP Everything Is in 2024, which introduces listeners to Known Moon’s unique brand of bouncy, melancholic indie rock. From lo-fi drum sampling to atmospheric riffs and blistering, fuzzed-out solos, Known Moons takes a different approach to each of its songs – staying true to the mantra behind the band’s name: Keep pushing forward past what is already known.
