Traveling in a 1989 Toyota van, they shared their music locally which they coined “Attic-Rock.” After a summer in their hometown and newfound passion of playing live, the four renovated an old school bus and began touring the US before their first official release. Many dive bars and music halls later, their “Barefoot Tour” landed the band a new cult following. So far, the group has released a live album, ‘Attic Sessions’, a studio EP ‘Beach Plum’, and 7 new singles into the release of their debut studio album ‘The Pit’. They have amassed over 20 million combined streams and sold-out headline shows in NYC (Bowery Ballroom), LA, Boston, Chicago, Nashville, Philly & more – including sets at Bonnaroo, Lollapalooza, Shaky Knees, Kilby Block Party & more. The debut studio album from the band, ‘The Pit’, will be released on April 18th this year. This project was compiled over months of time spent all over the country. From the abandoned winter on Nantucket Island, to Nashville, to Georgia, to recording at Applehead Studios in Woodstock, NY. This project was produced by 71-year-old legendary producer, Angelo Petraglia (Kings of Leon, Black Keys). It includes a guest appearance by 80-year-old songwriter and frontman of The Lovin’ Spoonful, John Sebastian. ‘The Pit’ consists of 13 tracks that will take you on a journey through Arcy Drive’s lens on the genre of ‘Attic Rock’. Be on the lookout for their biggest touring year yet this Fall!
Tyler Bryant & the Shakedown
Tyler Bryant & the Shakedown would label themselves a rock and roll band, however, there’s a little more to it than that. Some might hear a bluesy influence while some might call it classic or southern rock. The pure energy and volume that could follow a heartfelt ballad proves that this band is hard to fit into a single box. Hailing from Nashville, Tennessee, the group are true music appreciators who pride themselves on their live shows. Night after night they leave it all on the stage and like to refer to those nights as celebrations of “life, sound, and community.” The band consists of Tyler Bryant on lead vocals and guitar, Caleb Crosby on drums, and Graham Whitford on guitar. They have played hundreds of shows with countless venerable icons, such as AC/DC, Guns N’ Roses, ZZ Top, Clutch, and Jeff Beck, just to name a few. In 2022, the group decided to take their career into their own hands by starting Rattle Shake Records – an independent label that allows them a direct line of communication with their fans. The group released Electrified in 2024 — an album that represents the band’s mantra of letting loose and making music that sounds just as good on the stage as it does on a record. “I think this is potentially our most “authentically us” sounding album,” says Tyler. For Crosby, the album “feels like the culmination of where we’ve been and where we want to be.” “There are a lot of things to overthink in life,” Bryant says. “Rock and roll is not one of those things.”
Built To Spill
Built to Spill was formed in 1993 by Doug Martsch and over the years they have toured extensively and made several albums with a rotating cast of musicians, currently featuring Teresa Esguerra (Prism Bitch) on drums, and Melanie Radford (Blood Lemon) on bass.
The Wingtips
Enjoy x Puzzle
ENJOY Born and raised in Orange, California, Wyatt Shears is an artist who is best known for his song writing and aesthetic vision. Taking influence from a wide variety of genres including so-cal and UK punk , 70’s funk and drum and bass , Wyatt has helped to establish a sound that is very recognizable internationally and that has become an important staple for southern California. Establishing enjoy in 2010 and the garden soon after in 2011, both projects developed a style and vision of their own and continue to be cornerstones of California based collective vada vada. PUZZLE Puzzle is a solo endeavor created by Fletcher Shears in 2012. With 20+ albums under his belt he has garnered a slow but steady amount of growth and attention while putting the majority of his focus into his other project; The Garden. Through the years he has done a very select amount of touring and playing live but has managed to tour in the U.S., Japan & Mexico. In the last 6-7 years his music has garnered attention at a more rapid pace and he has now begun to play more often. During live shows, Puzzle is known for having an energetic and sometimes aggressive stage presence. Similar to with The Garden, the Puzzle live shows often teeter between unpredictable and bombastic to more melodic and stripped back. His most recent full length album, “The Rotten Opera” is available everywhere now.

Save Ferris
Formed in 1995, Save Ferris remains one of the seminal and most beloved bands from the third wave of ska. The group’s Orange County home was fertile ground for a thriving music scene, with punk, rock, and ska emerging from the region. Save Ferris blended the best elements of these sounds to help bring the region’s sound to the world. The group’s humble beginnings saw them play house parties and local venues, powered by Monique Powell’s high-octane vocals. Save Ferris’ live show instantly became a hit. As the word spread, the band got a much-needed boost. Legendary KROQ DJ Rodney Bingenheimer got a hold of the band’s self-released album. He played their cover of Dexys Midnight Runners “Come on Eileen” on his Rodney on the ROQ show and the response was overwhelming. Soon thereafter, Kevin Weatherly picked up the song and it was added to the legendary taste-making rock station’s rotation. All of this happened independently without a record label and with Powell serving as the singer and band manager. Major labels started noticing the buzz that was emanating from Orange County. In 1996, the band won a Grammy showcase award for best unsigned band, and with Epic Records’ David Massey as one of the judges, Save Ferris would sign with the label. Epic re-released the Introducing Save Ferris EP and, in 1997, Save Ferris unleashed their debut album, It Means Everything. Save Ferris toured the world for the better part of the next six years, with 1999’s Modified released during that time. In 2003, the band went on a hiatus. Starting in 2004, Powell switched gears and used her vocal talents to become a go-to studio musician. She appeared on albums for The Used, Goldfinger, Foxy Shazam, Lost Prophets, Mest, and Hilary Duff, among many others. Slowly, however, Powell started having health issues. In 2015, after years of painful back issues, she underwent a risky procedure to fix her broken neck that could have damaged her greatest musical weapon: her vocal cords. Ahead of the procedure, Powell made a promise to her father, who had been begging her to return to the stage: if the surgery was successful, she’d bring back Save Ferris. And it was a success. That year, Powell, with a new cast of characters, reformed Save Ferris. The hype surrounding the band was massive. After months of rehabilitation, Powell brought Save Ferris home to Orange County where it played a sold-out show at the Pacific Amphitheater in Costa Mesa. Another giant show at the Santa Monica Pier, with over 20,000 people in attendance, was put out on vinyl. These raucous shows proved that the band wasn’t just back, but ready to roar. Through a crowdfunded campaign in 2016, Powell and her bandmates went into the studio to record a new EP. Titled Checkered Past, the collection was released the following year, and produced by John Avila of Oingo Boingo. The EP featured an appearance by Neville Staple of The Specials, one of Powell’s favorite artists. Following Checkered Past’s release, Save Ferris played the entire 2017 Warped Tour on the main stage, headlined shows, and played festivals across the world. The future is as bright as it has been for Save Ferris in a long time. Powell scrapped a record she wrote prior to the pandemic and is currently at work on the first new Save Ferris album in nearly two decades. The band recently packed the House of Blues in Anaheim, playing in front of fans of all ages. Powell is the centerpiece of the action. Her dazzling on- stage presence continues to wow audiences and the band’s energy is infectious. Save Ferris are out to prove that they’re no nostalgia act, with their best days still ahead of them.
Sarah Kinsley
New York’s Sarah Kinsley is fascinated by creating imaginary worlds and alternate realities. She tries to conjure these with her music, but it requires the unlocking of one’s imagination to really go there. Sarah encourages you to try it though. We all need an escape. Born in California, and raised in Connecticut and Singapore before returning to New York to attend Columbia University, this perfectly unusual leftfield pop singer, songwriter, and multi-instrumentalist (Sarah plays the piano, synth, guitar, ondes Martenot, glass bowls, and some violin on her recent debut album Escaper) studied music and was creating much positive noise and conversation online long before she had signed a record deal. Everything she was putting out was home-spun; selfproduced, self-written and self-performed. Sarah made a habit of documenting her process, and it was one such video, uploaded in response to the misconception that “Women don’t produce music” that documented Sarah recording the sounds of tapping on a desk, opening a door, switching on a light, thumping on a mattress and flicking a wine glass, splicing them all together and forming the introduction to a prior EP track, Over + Under, that captured the imagination of a young audience who have been feverishly following her every move since. Sarah grew up in the world of classical music, studying the likes of Chopin, Debussy, and Ravel. She started out behind the piano before playing violin in the perfectionas-necessity world of orchestra. Meanwhile, this disciplined student of music was a teenager falling in love with the exciting, “unsubstantial” pop music that dominated Top 200 radio. Debut LP Escaper in some ways marries many of those unlikely contexts—substantial pop that flowers with lush string arrangements. “I’m just such a sucker for massive, grand songs,” she says. “I think it’s the classical musician in me who loves symphonies and the magnum opus effect.” Named one of Vevo’s Artists to Watch in 2024, Sarah has met sold out audiences singing her songs in unison right across the US and Europe. There’s something very communal about the experiences that Sarah and her band manage to evoke. The young crowd is feverish, greeting each song like an old hit, and forgetting themselves for some time in her company, allowing Sarah to massage their imaginations. Support tours, headline tours, and early festival appearances – it’s as exciting to her fans in the UK and Europe as it is to those in the US. They’re turning up in their droves and traveling miles and miles (and miles) to see her.

The Rocket Summer
Celebrating 20 years of “Hello, good friend.” The Rocket Summer will perform the seminal sophomore album as well as an additional set of songs from each album to date. Dubbed “a master of creating anthems” by Paste Magazine and named by Alternative Press as “100 artists you need to know”, multi-instrumentalist, songwriter and producer, Bryce Avary, better known as The Rocket Summer has been a musical force since exploding onto the scene as a teenager in the early 2000s. With several albums in his growing discography debuting in top Billboard Alternative charts, Avary recently returned with the ever evolved electrified full-length album, shadowkasters, then followed with the stripped down acoustic rooted single, Don’t Be Yourself, which were both named by Rolling Stone as “Songs You Need To Know”. Having performed at Glastonbury, Austin City Limits and Summer Sonic, embarking on sold out headline tours around the world while sharing stages with artists such as Paramore, Goo Goo Dolls, Onerepublic, Switchfoot, Third Eye Blind, All Time Low and more, fans have flocked to Avary’s optimistic and exuberant song craft, polymath instrumental live show, and the fan community it inspires – an atmosphere which can be heard captured on the live album, His Instruments and Your Voices. “We’re not talking simple acoustic solo stuff here. The music Bryce makes as The Rocket Summer is lush, explosively catchy and artful power pop that hints at a new Brian Wilson or Prince in the making. Keep an eye out on this one. – Austin City Limits .com”
