GREX with Savage Knights and Dead Halos

GREX Website / Bandcamp / Instagram   Grex is an experimental/art rock band based out of Oakland, California. In biological terms, a “grex” is an entity composed of several smaller organisms. Grex (the band) explores the meeting point between surreal songcraft and the dark outer reaches of free jazz and industrial hip-hop. The group has been called an “otherworldly experience” (Eugene Weekly) and “true genre warping music” (KFJC), recalling at turns the ecstatic energy of Milford Graves, the electronic squall of Death Grips, and the lilting indie rock of Water from Your Eyes and Mitski. Grex has performed alongside the likes of Fred Frith, Andrew Cyrille, Tony Levin, and members of Irreversible Entanglements, Tune-Yards, and Dirty Projectors. Auntie + Tebs is Grex’s first album in six years. Grex’s previous record, Everything You Said Was Wrong, was supposed to be its last. Then, isolated by the COVID-19 pandemic, the band reconvened to develop a new set of songs – loud, incendiary stories fueled by avant-garde aesthetics and the rhetoric of radical politics. The title Auntie + Tebs refers to two people: Miriam Defensor Santiago (“Auntie”), a Filipino politician and lawyer who spent her life fighting graft and corruption, and Louis Moholo-Moholo (“Tebs”), a South African drummer and anti-Apartheid activist. This is a record that carries forward their spirit of revolutionary struggle, aspiration, and imagination. Grex is Karl Evangelista (guitar, voice, misc.), Rei Scampavia (keyboards, voice, misc.), and Robert Lopez (drums), with D. Chavez (bass), Bobby Bradford (cornet), Zoh Amba (saxophone), and Misha Khalikulov (cello).   Savage Knights Bandcamp   Dead Halos Bandcamp / Instagram   Dark, noisy, experimental, motorik music.Ruminating in the underworld and baring the darker art of the past, Dead Halos is the solo project of Todd Warner.

Fatboi Sharif Instagram / X Sharif doesn’t look at his performances with the traditional lens that a normal rapper does, bukt treats the live show as a spiritual experience where Sharif and the crowd become married through raging and serenity. With being inspired as a child by Nine Inch Nails, White Zombie, and Parliament Funkadelic it’s hard to put Fatboi in a box. Grit over glamour is the name of his game. Production wise, once he finds the right instrumental that speaks to him in his language, he’ll sit with it for a few weeks and sleep to it on repeat. he’ll dream and see certain visions, colors, and shapes that create an image on top of the production canvas. This keeps his music everlasting.  

moony with Willingdon and Homemade Haircuts

  moony Spotify / Instagram / YouTube    After releasing and touring his debut album WARNING HIGH CUBE from 2024-2025, Singapore-raised now Nashville-based Seth Findley (moony) established himself as a creative force to be reckoned with in the independent alternative rock scene of Nashville. His ever-growing cult-like fanbase of self-deemed ”moonies” bonds over rich visuals, dense lore, singable anthems, and captivating live shows in the “moonyverse” – a hidden pocket of Earth where all are welcome but only the brave and curious have entered.    moony is hitting the road this fall touring his sophomore album “William Trimtoe.” William Trimtoe is a 19th century Scotch-Irish folktale turned children’s folk rhyme turned moony’s sophomore album, a journey deep into consciousness and the metaphysical battle of reality that fuels the entropy of our fragile existence amidst all of its pain, fear, confusion, beauty, love, and wonder. A no holds barred expression of the deepest parts of himself, moony goes for broke and delivers his self-produced masterpiece. Bold, brash, and at times chaotic yet surprisingly palpable, William Trimtoe is an hour long fever dream of alternative rock-centric songs that dip their multi-genre toes into hardcore, psychedelic, electronic, singer-songwriter, indie, and even Gaelic folkRaw, vulnerable, and often unhinged, moony wastes no time getting to the heart of the matter with his music coinciding world-building. Songwriter, producer, and multi-instrumentalist blurring the line between genres showcasing a sonic landscape of edgy alt-rock, hardcore, punk mellow indie, and a touch of catchy pop, moony is at full form after having spent the origin of his musical career as the frontman and primary songwriter of indie rock trio outfit Honest Men before their disbandment in 2022. “This was never meant to be a pristine, polished thing,” moony explains. “It’s the messy, unpolished side of me that needs an outlet. It’s not that I think I’m doing something revolutionary, but I’m not going to let myself overthink this. It’s been very personally rewarding.”

Wielding shining weapons of funk they deliver grooves hitherto unknown – pocket so deep it is abyssal, riffs so nasty they are spoken of only in whispered legends.
