The sounds of alexalone will usher you into warm, fuzzy, lonely spaces, then shock you alive with pulsing energy. But, alexalone’s first full length album, ALEXALONEWORLD, wasn't merely about the sound, it was an exercise in world building, and a portrait of the artist cradling and nurturing their emotions as they create, navigating labyrinths of pain as they search for exits, and hoping for a haven where they can survey the damage and regroup.

On the band’s sweeping sophomore album, ALEXALONE TECHNICAL RESEARCH, alexalone expands their sound with jarring and intricate rhythms, while at the same time introducing incredibly lush shoegaze soundscapes that are at times both dissonant and cohesive. Standouts such as “ALL I NEED” and “FULL BODY LEARNING,” highlight just how powerful the band’s music is - a beautifully chaotic world that is all-encompassing and undeniably mesmerizing.

Alexalone

Austin, TX based emo, alternative, queer, folk rock, shoegaze rock band. Sounds informed by 90s math rock. 2000s indie, & contemporary alt pop. Raw & vulnerable.

Proun

Very rarely do you find a band that, while new in the scheme of time, simultaneously sparks a feeling of fond and reverted sense of comfort; the kind you get when returning to the bands that were accomplices through milestones and memories. 
The Asheville/Brooklyn based band Hiding Places, consisting of Audrey Keelin Walsh (vox/guitar), Nicholas Byrne (vox/guitar) and Henry Cutting (drums) began in 2021 while they attended UNC’s Chapel Hill. Since forming, the band has cultivated and perfected a unique blend of hushed folk melodies, fun demeanor, and the crushing subtlety of Elephant 6 style production amongst two EPs and a handful of one off singles. As they have come to release their third EP, Lesson, Hiding Places reflects on the teetering compromises of adulthood, showing a young band embracing their imaginative and collaborative spirit to confront the duality of getting older.

Hiding Places

Julie Odell is an Asheville via New Orleans singer-songwriter. Her music is folky, dreamy, and soulful, marked by her powerful, peculiar vocals, detailed textures, and an instinct for immediate songcraft. Her songs are complex and multifaceted, in part because they don’t follow expected trajectories or settle into long stretches of even-keeled languor. “Internally I always feel either really chaotic or really calm,” Odell says. “So, it’s a lot of really loud, fast-paced stuff, and then it’ll shrink down to really quiet delicate things. I’m obsessed with dynamics.” Odell wanted to be a meteorologist when she was a kid, chasing tornadoes in a van with all her friends. Although she chose a life as an artist instead, she reckons she’s chasing musical tornadoes, since her songs are wispy, unpredictable beasts.

Odell’s mother is a painter, and her father is a potter, and she spent much of her childhood in the back of a van, trekking to art festivals and craft fairs for months at a time with her parents, which was how they made a living. She was surrounded by artists and their art for her whole life, so it was only a matter of time before she started making her own art. After she began writing songs on the family upright piano and performing at open mic nights, she played “dainty piano waltzes” as an opening act for hardcore shows in South Louisiana. Then she formed a psychedelic folk-rock band called Giant Cloud, who toured frequently and released an album on Park The Van, before writing and performing music under her own name.

Listening to her music feels like you’re sitting in Odell’s family van, absorbing delightful new landscapes through the window every few minutes, and you’ll never want the gorgeous fever dream to end.
