Any musician you talk to that is familiar with Shellshag regularly uses one word to describe these DIY stalwarts: Inspiring. Over the years, the duo has grown into Brooklyn’s answer to Dead Moon, transcending the simple label of “a band” and becoming an institution in their own right.Al Scorch grew up in Chicago, with its storied history of corrupt power at the top and righteous fighters and big dreamers at the bottom. From the town that gave the world characters like Studs Terkel, Upton Sinclair, and the anarchists in Bughouse Square, Scorch adds his voice to the choir with the enthusiasm and charisma of a Maxwell Street preacher. He eyes the prize of that ever-elusive promised land that’s worth scrapping for, wherever or whatever it may be. With a stentorian bullhorn of a voice, he exhorts, not with a holy book in his hand, but a banjo and guitar. He’s a messenger and a conduit, a believer that a soul-stirring song will march you forward.
Makin’ Out is a four piece band fronted by singer/songwriter Caitlin Angelica. Formed in early 2023 during the harsh, but creatively fertile Minneapolis winter, the band was a long-desired avenue for Angelica to flesh out and expand a repertoire of unheard material written on acoustic guitar. Taking equal inspiration from folk and country as well as pop punk and region rock, the band blends these influences, and becomes more than the sum of its parts, offering a truly refreshing and emotionally evocative take on the traditional rock format.
