Asheville NC indie/emo
**Big Girl**
Big Girl, is a six-piece indie-rock band that is breaking fresh ground in the New York live music scene. Big Girl’s music is expansive and cathartic, combining indie-rock vulnerability with irreverent punk energy. Their adventurous songs are filled with delicious lyrics driven by soaring vocals – sometimes a chorus of them.
Front person and carnival barker Kaitlin Pelkey is a raw and emotionally intense band leader, oscillating between the grave tones of a preacher, the sass of a schoolgirl, and the heartfelt croons of a torch-singer. Two backup singers flank the stage performing synchronized circus-like choreography, guitars tremble and wail while drums crackle and burst into improvised interludes before seamlessly checking into a groove. The band will sound like Deerhoof and B-52s one moment, only to take a hairpin turn into the textures of Sleater-Kinney or the intimacy of Phoebe Bridgers.
The Deli Magazine describes the live experience of Big Girl as being *“sucked into and enveloped by the band’s immersive mix of glitter-encrusted glam-rock-ish grandiloquence mixed with unguarded singer-songwriter-ish intimacy.”* Full Time Aesthetic characterizes the atmosphere of Big Girl’s show as “Rocky Horror Picture Show energy. With choreographed dancing and saturated stage outfits, I almost felt like this show could be taken to Broadway.”
Big Girl is set to release their debut record, Big Girl vs. God, with Weird Sister on June 30, 2023. **Aunt Vikki**
Aunt Vicki merges indie, retro rock, and Americana into their signature sound. Led by married songwriters Lee Dyer and Erin Campbell, their two styles give a yin and yang to the overall vibe. Influenced by the rock legends of the '60s and the indie scene of the '90s-00s, the four-piece band delivers catchy tunes with a gritty edge. Drew Ball is on Bass/Stage Mischief, and Tristan Smith adds a charming garage rock sass with his vintage drum kit.
**Mary Metal**
Mary Metal is an Indie Alternative Rock/Dream Pop band based in Asheville NC, and includes band members Charlie Graham, Alex Cain, Lucas Ross, Max Kline, and Haven Hager. They have rock driven instrumentals mixed with sarcastic lyrics and saxophone. drawing inspiration from a spectrum of classic and modern alternative rock, such as Men I Trust and the Pixies, creating a familiar but unique new sound
