CARESS 
Caress is the synth / darkwave solo project of Los Angeles artist Tara Jane, front person of noise pop / shoegaze band Blood Candy. Caress blends haunting melodies and cold breathy exhales that reign over echoed drum machines, airy synths, and reverb drenched guitar. Inspired by ’80s darkwave and modern synth pop, Caress is known for her dark minimal arrangements.
THE ACHARIS 
The Acharis is a distorted dreampop / post-punk duo from Oakland. In 2015 they were signed to indie label Exbtn in Paris, France, who released their first LP, “Lost in the Vortex.” The band’s own take on recalling their teenage soundtracks honors a chaotic sonic dialogue between the two members; on one side lyrical ballad, on the the other a brooding storm terminating in total annihilation. The Acharis have shared the stage with Cindy Lee, Shivas, La Luz, The Americas, Naomi Punk, and more.
DEATHLIST 
Deathlist is the solo recording project of former Summer Cannibals bassist Jenny Logan. Since 2016, the prolific gothy post-punk musician has released four LPs and three EPs. The Portland Mercury calls her music “frenzied punk rock that riffs wildly until caught in a buzzy entanglement of guitar-driven chaos.” And Williamette Week raves, “Deathlist is quickly becoming Portland’s most prolific, carefully honed purveyor of post-punk.”
FAWNING 
Fawning is a new dreampop trio fronted by Cheyenne of Night School. Their music is equal parts serene and beautiful, and at times borderline creepy. Cheyenne and Devin met many years ago, and they originally formed Fawning as a recording project. In mid-2019 they added bassist Eddie and transitioned to a live band. Fawning cites Cocteau Twins, Cranes, and Julie Cruise as influences on their debut EP released by Graveface Records.
