Artists

The Strings

The Strings blend a mix of folk, alternative and art rock to create an album that sounds new while conveying feelings familiar to many.

The Strings first formed in 2016 over their shared love of music as an artform. Ever since, the band has looked to explore new sounds and ways to keep their music feeling fresh while also using the form to delve into what it means to be human. From their first EP “An Abundance of Caution,” the Strings have always sought to create music that navigates the human condition to show the fullness of what it means to simply exist. The Strings believe that music is the best artform to provide the opportunity for people to reflect inwards and show that what they may be going through isn't their experience alone and is instead shared throughout communities and time. At a time when artificial intelligence continues to creep into our creative lives and threatens to erode the fibers of personal connection, The Strings hope their album "Watercolor Moon" and the rest of the music catalogue can provide a safe harbor for people seeking art that preserves the sanctity of shared human experience."

Aura May

Aura May is a Psychedelic Pop Rock band from Tempe, AZ. The band was formed by singer Ammon Ross, drummer Ian Tait, and founding Wallace Hound guitarist Justin Cook. It was on the roof of the band house overlooking a graveyard that the name was decided, and the spirit of Aura May would accompany the boys forever.

The Joeys

Twangy rock from the Arizona desert featuring Dean Cheney (Guitar/Vocals), Logan Cormany (Bass/Vocals) and Hayden Lamm (Drums).

Smooth Hands

Smooth Hands the self described "funky bois", is a force of nature that isn't afraid to genre bend. A look back at their discography will reveal sentiments of feel good indie rock anthem's, lyrics of introspective reflection, and rowdy humor. With "In the Grass" the band takes a left turn into a country/folk aesthetic while retaining their indie pop sensibility and diy grime. They put on their cowboy hats and ride the western wave in to faux urban cowboyism with songs of sorrow, battles with inner demons, and an attempt at communion with the higher self. Join Smooth Hands and their friends for a beautiful night of music in a damp basement in the valley of the sun!
