Lane Lines was dreamed into existence by Mandi L. Kimes by connecting pieces from the unconscious realm to the waking, pulling threads from Frou Frou, The Japanese House and Fleet Foxes to weave together the coziest, comforting sound of moody vocal harmonies and hazy pop - accurately titled Sweatercore.

Lil Flower Nasti 🌻 Try as you might, but you can’t put Lil Flower Nasti in a box. This sultry songstress loves dipping her toe in every musical genre giving her music such a rare and refreshing quality. The Blooming EP is just the introduction of this character: a conceptual story of her first night out. Paired with the nostalgic golden-age production of UnLearn The World, the singer’s natural neo-soul tendencies wrote what you might call a hip-hop chapter.

Cait La Dee is a one of a kind Artist that is Truly Unique and Beautiful in her own special way.

Mommy Mommy from Oakland, CA is Queer Rock and Roll. Mommy Mommy is a queer rock band based in Berkeley, CA. The band consists of Ray Sunshine, Lily Ramus, Ian Watson, and Chard Masulis.
The band’s mission is to reappropriate rock music by uplifting queer and femme voices and aesthetics, something that has long been overshadowed by the prominence of heteronormative groups and institutional discrimination against minorities.

Orbit 17 is an experimental independent rock band based in San Jose, CA. Founded by Jamie Brite and Misha Guiffre in 2022, Orbit 17 exploits the capabilities of modern technology while remaining emotionally grounded and accessible. The music explores the conflict between the digital and the analog, and forces the two into an uneasy momentary harmony.
The group explore unusual territory for popular music, often featuring odd time signatures and uncommon harmonic modes. However, the songs never drift fully into progressive or experimental territory and remain hypnotic and radio friendly, if perhaps a bit “otherworldly.”
