On The Block

 are here to have a good time, and part of that process includes getting the bad stuff off their chest. How do you balance an at-times ridiculous approach with heavy subjects? “Honestly it's kind of a way to make those topics more digestible,” said singer Faith Callaway. “They are so serious, and especially live. I'm always down in the crowd and it's pretty aggressive because I'm screaming in your face, but then I always follow it with a giant smile, you know?”
The Chicago five-piece are goofy and loud and not afraid to get dirty—arguably more literally than most. Callaway, guitarist Will Sallee, and saxophonist Tyler Meneese formed the band while picking soil out from under their fingernails during their day jobs as landscapers, quickly bonding over their love of high-octane music, cheeky convos, and a need to push for better societal growth. Edging is both an expected double entendre in regards to its risque sexual reference, and an unexpected double entendre when it comes to its family-friendly gardening term. It’s form-fitting for a band of proud, hands-on punks.

The music of Little Mazarn is a cool float a few feet from the ground through a dimly lit, almost familiar forest. It is quieter than silence, big as everything, still but always moving. If you’ve ever had flying dreams, or an amazing night time bike ride on LSD, this might be a world for you. - Thor Harris

McKay

"Rising indie-folk band McKay combines spot-on harmonies, insightful lyricism, and passionate performances for a live show far surpassing many of their contemporaries. With two members entering their freshman year at Belmont in the Fall, they're already alums of Sevier Park Fest, Light the Nations, Acme Feed & Seed, The 5 Spot, The Basement, The East Room, and many more of Nashville's dedicated performance spaces. Writing with the perspective and wisdom of more seasoned songwriters, McKay represents a new generation in Nashville's storied lineage of landmark poets and musicians."

Gouge Away

Fliora

Forming in South Florida with the intention to record a short EP and play one show, Gouge Away were driven by the need to write music and take a stab at topics they weren’t hearing in their local scene. They were influenced by bands like Fugazi, Unwound, The Jesus Lizard, Nirvana, Sonic Youth, and Paint it Black.

A couple years later, they put out “, Dies” on local label, Eighty-Sixed Records, which they didn’t expect to reach beyond their hometown. After some touring, they released “Burnt Sugar” on Deathwish Inc. in 2018 which naturally took a more personal approach when Christina Michelle was dealing with her mom’s heart complications and misdiagnoses. Following the release of the album, they toured extensively throughout the US and beyond. While on tour and in their small pockets of downtime, they eagerly wrote and demoed songs for a third album, pulling influence not only from the nostalgia of the bands they grew up listening to, but developing and pushing the sense of urgency, noise, and introspective lyrics they felt most represented them.

Touring came to a halt in 2020, canceling a full year of plans in an instant. Gouge Away took time for themselves to move to different parts of the country and focus on their personal lives. On New Years Eve just beginning 2022, they decided it was time to revisit their demoed material, and to do it justice by allowing it to see the light of day.

They recorded with Jack Shirley at Atomic Garden East in March 2023, completely analog to tape and almost entirely live, without the use of a computer. The goal was to sound like five friends playing music in a room together, unpolished and far from being over-produced, which is what the heart of Gouge Away has always been.

After years of playing in bands confined by genre, Van Dyke and Simon founded KCC definitively as an exploration of music.

SEAN O'HARA (of Feeling Format) singer-songwriter / shoegaze

KREKEL and WHOA - An adaptable duo, their show can be folk-y and acoustic, or rockin’ and electric with Krekel playing drums with his feet while still shredding the strings. This versatility means you might hear them saw through vintage fiddle tunes, weave original yarns, or pound out esoteric rock-n-roll beaters. One moment they’ll touch your heart, and the next they’ll get you dancing. Whether unplugged or cranked up, every Krekel and Whoa performance is full of heart, harmonies, and happiness.

Moontype

Julie Odell

Infinitikiss

Moontype is an American indie rock band from Chicago, Illinois. The group was originally a solo project of vocalist Margaret McCarthy while she attended Oberlin College, but later expanded into a full band with guitarist Ben Cruz and drummer Emerson Hunton. As a solo project, McCarthy released her first EP under the Moontype alias titled Fan Music. The band released their debut full-length album, Bodies of Water, in 2021 on Born Yesterday Records.

Moontype expanded into a fully-fledged four-piece since the release of their Bodies of Water LP. The band now features Emerson Hunton on drums, and Joe Suihkonen and Andrew Clinkman on guitar.

In 2025, Moontype signed to Orindal Records, the label run by Advance Base’s Owen Ashworth. The signing coincided with the release of their first music since 2021, single "Long Country."

MSHR

 is an accordionist, multi-instrumentalist and composer based in Los Angeles. His solo compositions focus on processed accordion, creating patient and emotional meditations that nod to drone and ambient music. His debut record, “A Hole in the Fence” was released in 2021 on American Dreams, and utilized a minimal palette of accordions processed through pedals to create glacial soundscapes and odes to hidden worlds. On his latest record, and first for Western Vinyl, “On a Painted Ocean”, he expands his sonic tools to include lush synths, droning pipe organs, and spirited horns, creating a vibrant journey from solitary stillness to community exuberance. The record also follows last year’s “Rain on the Road”, a collaborative album with harpist Mary Lattimore, released on Thrill Jockey.

Prior to releasing music under his own name, McClements had been a touring member of Weyes Blood, Hurray for the Riff Raff, and Dark Dark Dark, as well as leading New Orleans art-punk brass ensemble Why Are We Building Such A Big Ship? and one man band Lonesome Leash.

Upcoming record On a Painted Ocean will be out April 2025 on Western Vinyl.

Wastoid

WASTOID– undoubtedly one of the Charlotte hardcore/ DIY scene’s most beloved and recognizable bands. With three Spotify album releases in 2022, including Government Sanctioned Weaponized Fem Boys, Burnt Out Wastoid Gutter Demon, and a live album, LIVESTOID, the band marries hardcore, punk, and experimental elements to create a versatile sound; one that is at times distorted, heavy, and shouted, and at others, ambient and melodic. But while Wastoid’s hardcore sound and energy distinguish the band musically, it’s their heavy and spirited live performances—and the lively and engaged crowds drawn around them—that have won them their beloved status in the local Charlotte DIY/underground scene. A Wastoid show means a crowd that will fill up an entire venue or outside patio, kids flocking in a circling crowd full of elbow bumping, jumping, and letting loose—at some point throughout the set, you’re guaranteed to see kids backflipping through a crowd, rolling on hard concrete in the midst of stomping black shoes on cement pavement, and, of course, crowd surfing.
