Indie Rock Catalog Remix: Autopilots with Hook of Moon and Persimmon

Want to see more local shows but don’t know where to start? We’ve got you.  You’ve already heard these bands from our Local Mixtape. We remixed them for a spinoff show that everyone will enjoy.  Come support local music. The level of talent is unreal. Autopilots: Autopilots are a Raleigh band that writes songs about people, regrets, and whatever else falls through the cracks. Mixing Americana’s laid-back charm with indie rock’s rough edges, Autopilots craft tunes that feel both familiar and fresh. Sometimes it’s tuneful, sometimes it veers into noise, but it’s always chasing the good stuff: tension, release, and a chorus that earns its keep. It’s music for people who want to sleep with their grandfather’s nurse but are too tired to take any meaningful steps to make it happen. Hook of Moon: Hook of Moon makes sad music that you can dance to. Persimmon:  Raleigh-based queer ambient post-hardcore band, Persimmon, formed in 2022 consisting of four unassuming independent self-expressionists, Taylor Weber (vocals), Tommy Ellis (guitar), Kai Vosberg (drums), and Soledad Vallejo (bass). Persimmon is the amalgamation of vulnerability, explored inner worlds, and larger emotions unleashed into a heavy yet dynamic sound meant to overwhelm and rapture the audience. Influenced by artists like Anthony Green, System of a Down, Windhand, and AFI, Persimmon is a multi-faceted entity blending ethereal vocals with grunge and emo elements, redefining what the post-hardcore genre encompasses.

Holy Pinto with ManDancing, Solar Illusion, and Larry.

Holy Pinto  Instagram / Facebook / Tiktok / Youtube / Website   Holy Pinto is an indie-pop project led by songwriter Aymen Saleh. It began in his hometown of Canterbury, England, and is now based in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. Starting out in the UK with a raw, youthful punk sound, Holy Pinto gradually evolved into colorful, genre-defying indie-pop. After falling in love with the touring life – a mix of carefree independence and serendipitous moments – Aymen eventually made Milwaukee his home. A short record chronicling that relocation in 2020 received praise from local press and national publications like NPR, earning a spot on their coveted SXSW “Austin 100” list. ManDancing Spotify / Instagram Steve Kelly is the songwriter, singer, and frontman of ManDancing, a New Jersey–based indie rock band known for their explosive alternative tunes that carry introspective poetry at the forefront.
