NAYAN - A DC Band. taking inspiration from punk, classic rock n roll and 80s New Wave.

Several years ago, Tommy Elms was visited by three spirits--the ghost of rock and roll past, the ghost of rock and roll present, and finally, the ghost of rock and roll yet to come. The third visit shook him to his core--the apparition foretold of a dark future, UNLESS Tommy would start another band, and make a solo album. Before Tommy had a chance to ask any questions, he disappeared into the black mist. So Tommy found time in between starting a family, working a full time job and fronting NoVA post-punk trio Fix Your Hearts to fulfill his new destiny. Teaming up with Ivakota studio wizard Ben Green and session musician Ben Tufts, Tommy painstakingly put together an EP of gorgeous songs, due out in 2025. Turns out the ghosts were just his friends pranking him after he got ahold of some shellfish. Some friends, eh? If you're a fan or Death Cab for Cutie, The Wallflowers, and Goo Goo Dolls, this is your kinda stuff.

The Mantis is a multimedia group comprising of Dempsey Hamilton on drums and percussion, David Barker on treble string instruments, Doug Kallmeyer on bass string instruments, and Monica Stroik on visual projections. With an improvisational approach to musical arrangements and real time video manipulations, the group has drawn comparisons to Mogwai, Tycho, Explosions in the Sky and Maserati.
