Their music, influenced by 70s jazz fusion, prog rock, and contemporary noise rock, as well as early aughts “butt rock” (of course), creates an angular, perpetually oscillating, and chaotic yet “tight” stream of sound. Since their inception in Brattleboro, VT, around 2018, the trio has crusaded across the north-atlantic with high energy live performances, sharing the stage with notable acts like Gustaf, Chris Brokaw of Come and Codeine, Guerilla Toss, Arc Iris, Thus Love, and many more.FunsuckerFunsucker is an alternative rock band started in 2021 by singer/songwriter Jo Casanova. What started off as a solo project quickly evolved into a full on 90’s guitar rock outfit, with elements of shoegaze, noise, and early emo/hardcore. Currently based in Brooklyn, the band’s lineup features Tucson, Arizona natives Damian Diaz (Trees Speak) on guitar, and Daniel Olitzky on drums, as well as Alexander Pope (Trees Speak/Dropper) on bass. Though their inspiration may be drawn mainly from decades preceding them, Funsucker continues to experiment sonically without regard for any specific genre. Their upcoming record “ONLY FANTASY” is slated to be released in April this year.Big SlipBig Slip began as a collaboration between Caleb (Bonus, Negative World Status) & Ian (Bass Drum of Death, E-Meters) in Oxford, MS. Fusing a love of fuzzy, shoegaze guitars and blistering drums, their sound is simultaneously loud and comforting, dirgy and frenetic. Now located in Philadelphia with new-comers Ben & Jack on drums and bass respectively, Big Slip will resonate with lovers of 90s-indebted rock and punk. FFO: my bloody valentine, Ovlov, Swirlie.

WXPN Welcomes…Cosmic Guilt Album Release Show w/LEON III
AGE RESTRICTION: All Ages Doors: 7:00 PM Show: 7:30 PM COSMIC GUILTPhiladelphia’s Cosmic Guilt is a psychedelic, folk supergroup of working musicians and leaders in their community. Their debut as a fully-realized band came after the pandemic lockdown, with a self-titled album arriving later in 2022. Sonically, Cosmic Guilt carries themes of existential dread through roaring folk rock and country elements, burying the bittersweet feelings in cathartic shared experience. Multi-layered guitar, pillowing vocal harmonies, and ripping pedal steel are all signatures of their music, produced to a technical but not exhaustive degree. In their recent history, Cosmic Guilt has provided direct support for The Walkmen, sold out Philadelphia venues such as Johnny Brenda’s and Brooklyn Bowl Philly, as well as shared the stage with Charley Crocket, Sharon Van Etten, and Father John Misty at 2022’s NON-COMMvention. The group has also made devoted fans of the DJs and audience of WXPN: their debut album was named one of the station’s favorites of 2022, and the Guilt played XPoNential Festival the same year. Following up Cosmic Guilt is Palace of Depression (2024), the Guilt’s sophomore LP produced at Hi5 Studios in Philadelphia and mastered by Charlie Stavish (Jenny Lewis). In Palace, Cosmic Guilt captures the mysterious allegory of the record’s namesake, a Depression-era fortress built of found objects and mud in New Jersey. Is it resilience and resourcefulness that keeps us pushing through hard times, or is it madness?https://linktr.ee/COSMICGUILTLEON IIITexas-based psychedelic songweavers Leon III (pronounced Leon the Third) are thrilled to announce their third full-length studio album along with the release of the album’s opening, two-song suite: “Mannequins” and “Dogwood Blooms”. The bands core duo of Andy Stepanian and Mason Brent have been friends since grade school, playing together in the acclaimed country-rock group Wrinkle Neck Mules since 1999. With Leon III’s self-titled 2018 debut, they retained their twangy roots, before 2021’s sophmore effort Antlers In Velvet drifted into a panoramic sound inspired by Pink Floyd and the Dead. Once again co-produced by Mark Nevers, the band’s third LP introduces a newfound sense of brevity, packing compact songs with sly pop hooks, while maintaining their boundless experimentation.https://open.spotify.com/artist/609q9A0vX8an6tAWbcCojf

Whether he’s writing about saving the world from an alien invasion with former WWE Champion and Olympic gold medalist Kurt Angle, or rapping at length about his favorite discontinued snacks, the MC Snax discography is a vast resource of absurdly positive and oftentimes positively absurd music. Snax also co-hosts a Juggalo-themed podcast named Hatchet Chat with MC Lars. With his strong D.I.Y. ethic, MC Snax produces, records, mixes and masters all of his own music.
