YONKS is a fierce, female-led rock band from Providence, RI, who has been paving their way through the Rhode Island music scene since 2022. Known for their electric live shows, YONKS delivers a blend of raw emotion, powerhouse vocals, and irresistibly catchy hooks. Their sound is a cocktail of femme-fueled rage, pop rock, and cowgirl rock - making each set a wild ride that resonates with any audience. YONKS draws inspiration from bands and artists like Paramore, Linda Ronstadt, Alanis Morissette, Mazzy Star, The Pretenders, and No Doubt to name a few. YONKS channels fearless energy into honest, relatable lyrics resulting in unforgettable sets that forge deep connection with fans. At a YONKS show, you can expect to dance, make a new friend, and discover your new favorite band.
Vanna Pacella is a rapidly rising songwriter and multi-instrumentalist from Falmouth, MA, whose contemporary pop/rock sound, defined by haunting layered vocals, cinematic keyboard solos, and profound lyricism, has earned her the title of "modern Fleetwood Mac" from fans. Recognized as the 2025 New England Music Awards' "New Act of the Year", Vanna crafts an emotionally raw sound that blends the sonic architecture of Pink Floyd and Fleetwood Mac with the soulful grit of Bonnie Raitt and the pop sensibilities of contemporaries like Vanessa Carlton, allowing her to fluidly move between intimate songwriter and full-throttle rock band. Backed by a fiercely loyal fanbase across New England and significant industry recognition, including multiple songwriting awards and performances at prominent New England venues like City Winery Boston and Soundcheck Studios, Vanna delivers a massive sound with her expertly tight trio, continuing to make impressive strides as New England's hometown rising star.
crash space is a dynamic Providence, RI duo featuring Damian Puerini and Beth Killian, known for their unique spin on pop music. They blend together styles of electronica, trip hop, and R&B, forging an artistic essence that stands out in the local scene. Killian provides vocals which at times evolve into soundscapes of melodies and harmonies, while Puerini's structures and arrangements incorporate synthy distortions, mesmerizing harmonies, and an array of samples and guitar work. Their sonic exploration is exemplified on their debut full-length album, "Space Mom", released in April 2025, and their newest July 2025 single "Shackfield" (feat local violinist Diane O'Connor) has been described by local art critics as "a hypnotic track that’ll put the senses in a trance."
