At a glance, Waylon Horner’s work is a fun mass of Technicolor abstracted cartoon madness. But if you look a little closer…well let’s just say it can be a bit of a surprise. In light of his subject matter, it shouldn’t be a shocker that one of Horner’s earliest inspirations was H.R. Giger. Giger, a … Continue reading
Ask any member of the band Electro Group what genre of music they play and they would all have a tough time giving a straight answer.

Many of the superlatives describing Angel Olsen refer to how seemingly little it takes for her to leave an audience speechless, even spellbound.

As one of the principal songwriters in the New Hampshire band MMOSS, guitarist Doug Tuttle was integral in honing that band’s signature sound of West Coast bummer harmonies wrapped taut around a sinewy and dreamy collision of hazy psychedelia and motorik krautrock.
