The band aims to sonically capture the moments of bliss amidst the chaos of existence. Prepare to groove, headbang, and maybe even shed a tear or two when this band hits the stage. MLMDGMLMDG (Moon-Liters/Millennium Development Goals) is the home recording and performance project of Philadelphia’s D. Liedel. Created in 2016 out of an attempt to add free improvisatory passages to existing songs from his previous band Katana Girl, MLMDG uses guitars and electronics to create audio puzzles and paranoiac ramblings. Sometimes dissonant, sometimes sonorant; sometimes concise, sometimes protracted; refractory rock in retrograde motion. SPIRIT FURNACE Spirit Furnace is a Philly-based experimental music group, blending shoegaze, prog, jazz fusion, and noise rock. MIDSIDE https://midsidephl.bandcamp.comFounded in 2018 as the recording project of Philadelphia’s Ryan Hankins, Midside focused on home recording techniques to achieve a guitar-centric soundscape at the intersection of analog and digital. Live, the band currently performs as a trio, taking their song structures on an improvisational journey – each performance different from the last. The spirit of improvisation lives at the heart of Midside.

Sedona ~ Scarlet Rae

AGE RESTRICTION: Only Ages 21+ can purchase tickets for this show. NO REFUNDS/EXCHANGES for anyone underage who purchases or attempts to use these tickets.Doors: 7:00 PMShow: 8:00 PMSEDONA”Domino” is Sedona’s second single of 2023. Sedona says, “Life has a way of knocking you down when you’re already down. This song sheds light on a feeling we’re all familiar with – disappointment. When something doesn’t work out how we hoped it would, it stings, it burns. And sometimes that burn triggers what feels like a domino effect of trouble.” Sedona’s “Domino” was born out of that feeling.” Like recent single “Quicksand,” Sedona once again collaborated on “Domino” with producers Miro Mackie (Matt & Kim, St. Vincent, Wallows, The Neighbourhood) and Daniel Chae (LP, Samia, Middle Kids, Geographer). Conjuring up female leads like Stevie Nicks and Madonna, Sedona’s sound emerges from the nostalgic undertow of hook-filled pop antics. Founding the project in 2018, Sedona began releasing music with her single “Call Me Up”, followed up by a series of singles and a debut EP, Rearview Angel during the pandemic. Her songs have been featured in Netflix show ‘Never Have I Ever,’ HBO’s ‘Generation,’ Disney’s ‘Just Beyond,’ MTV’s ‘Catfish,’ and the commercial for Ralph Lauren’s SS22 collection. Sedona has also been featured on Spotify’s Fresh Finds, All New Indie, Lorem and the top spot on Apple Music’s Indie Pop playlist. Sedona also sings in the band, Drugdealer. With a debut album in the works, Sedona has established an early foothold as a touring act with sold out headline shows in NYC (Elsewhere Zone One) and LA (Zebulon). She has shared the stage on tour with the likes of TOPS, Sir Chloe, Nation of Language, Barrie, Triathlon, Paul Cherry, Samantha Urbani and sets at SXSW and Treefort Music Fest.SCARLET RAE

Playing a brand of pop-punk infused with ska horns, the group takes after New Found Glory as much as it does Less Than Jake, and the band’s sweet, hook-laden choruses back this up. Catchy ska portions invade verses while No Such Noise offers its own take on a genre that has been around for decades.” The band will be celebrating the 10 year Anniversary of their album “For Closure”, so expect a set that will span the entire history of the band.

Around this time, they expanded their sound by experimenting with elements of Ska and Hard Rock that brought them into a new phase. Curious Volume reunited in 2018 for beloved local venue Dock Street’s 40th anniversary, and from there were inspired to work on new music. Armed with a relaunch, uber-talented Swiss army knife Brian Buchanan, and new music nearly ready to go, Curious Volume is ready to show the world what’s next.TAKE TODAY taketoday.bandcamp.com Take Today is a 4 piece punk band from South Jersey formed in 2003 that that is full of nostalgic energy and carries with them a wide range of sonic emotion. Fast songs, poppy songs, moody songs, and even dabbled in ska punk. Some say old school Alkaline Trio meets Jawbreaker, some say they’re simply too loud.

Doors: 7:00 PM Show: 7:30 PM The Dead Pockets The Dead Pockets are a Rock band from Philly, PA. They have gone through a couple lineup changes before solidifying their present band members. James Morozin (Lead Singer), Johnny Brennan (Bass), Matt Kelly (Guitar), Chuck Haegele (Guitar), and Bill Carley (Drums). The band started with two cousins Chuck and Johnny looking for other musicians to jam with, they found Matt on craigslist and Bill from an older band. This lineup stayed the same, but finding the right singer was the hard part. Until, James with no prior singing experience asked to step in and he was the guy for the job! They have since gained a small presence on social media with their “Lodi” cover by CCR on youtube, and from their first live show. They have a good setlist of original tunes and are headed to the studio in November to record their first ever EP. They enjoy playing and writing in the style of older, retro rock but like to put their own modern twist on their songs. Some of their influences are the Rolling Stones, Kings of Leon, CCR, and The Guess Who.https://open.spotify.com/artist/6g10P5Bw3OrFOLI3V8SY67The CospiralsCospirals are a cosmic country rock band that formed in Lehigh Valley, Pa in 2023.
