Big Government

Big Government’s brand of indie rock weaves brass-infused power with danceworthy rhythms and lighthearted fun. Formed in early 2024, they’ve brought their unique sound to clubs, apartments, and porches around the DMV, and expanded their set of original songs along the way. Big Government’s lyrics elevate their perspectives with piercing prose, while their songwriting draws influence from artists like Steely Dan, King Crimson, Peach Pit, and the Strokes.

Girls on Toast

Girls on Toast is your new favorite girl band. Mixing serious messages with an upbeat sound, their approach to punk is reminiscent of 90s female-led bands like Hole and Veruca Salt with a silly and refreshing twist. Their lyrics are filled with frustration and reflections on relationships, while their drum beats and basslines create danceable grooves. Girls on Toast also packs a punch with their singing, creating layered harmonies with all three members. All in all, Girls on Toast is a silly band with unsilly messages.

Historically Close Friends

Historically Close Friends is an alternative pop band from Washington, DC delivering upbeat and lively performances since the spring of 2024. They made waves at Adams Morgan Porchfest this past November, covering songs by artists such as MUNA, Chappell Roan, and The Aces. Now, HCF is venturing into writing original tunes that buzz with that same crispy crackly cloud of potent energy that's been lighting up their devoted fanbase since the beginning.
