Veronica North - Pop singer/songwriter from Bellingham, WA brings her full band to Seattle for the first time. A mix of glossy pop polish and intimate, folky undertones. Rooted in storytelling, Veronica's heartfelt lyrics, dreamy melodies, and sonic textured production come together to create something both relatable and original. Often characterized by her vulnerability, poetic edge, and genre-blurring sound, Veronica North offers a space where mainstream appeal meets personal expression; a soundtrack for dancing, crying, and everything in between. Some call it 'pop music for falling in and out of love'.
Seattle’s Jaws of Brooklyn emerged during the 2020 pandemic, blending 60s garage rock and soul with modern songwriting and earning early acclaim for their 2022 debut The Shoals, produced by Grammy winner Ben Tanner. After building momentum with high-energy performances across the Pacific Northwest—including SXSW and Capitol Hill Block Party—the band entered a new chapter in 2024 with the addition of powerhouse vocalist Gretchen Lemon. They returned to Florence, Alabama, to record 15 new tracks with Tanner, bringing back standout background vocalists Shanay Johnson and Karita Law. Their 2025 EP Crush on You drew strong reviews, with KUT-FM naming “LiteBringer” its Song of the Day, and the band went on to sell out regional shows, play major festivals, and earn national airplay including rotation on KEXP. With a New York tour and their first co-headlining show at Seattle’s Tractor on the horizon, the band plans to release their next EP, Unstoppable, in Spring 2026 alongside tours in California and the UK.
Forest Stoke is Zach Hamer's solo project. Zach is a multi-instrumentalist and songwriter with a focus on folk and country. A seasoned performer, Zach, has spent the last decade playing shows coast to coast, bringing an energetic and engaging performance wherever he goes. Zach also performs in the band Kuinka.
