THURSDAY 7/30
8pm- Katie Bulley
Genre: folk / roots
For fans of: Emmylou Harris, Memphis Minnie
Canadian lady. Plays guitar well. Sometimes plays harmonica.
One album called ‘Sun Wolf’ from Sun Studio. Hints of a rock & roll past fused with hill-country roots.
“In this current musical era of auto-tuning and techno-pop, it’s refreshing to stumble upon the raw folk musical stylings of someone like Katie Bulley. Just listen to the Hamilton native’s recent single “Up and In” from her album Sun Wolf, and you’ll feel as if you’re in a much happier musical time and place.”
- VICE – Noisey
“Written ‘straight from the soul without the curse of second-guessing,’ She possesses a style that conjures a mash of early ‘70s Bonnie Raitt blues intimacy with a splash of Zooey Deschanel charm and wit. Both women wouldn’t hesitate to raise an eyebrow or two after listening to the vocals emanating from that microphone of hers. You will, too. Sounds like: Music to assist you in finding your way in the world.” - Alan Cross (Toronto, Ontario)

9pm- The Aquatic Safety
Genre: Bedroom Pop, Dunedincore, Folk Punk, Slackergaze
For fans of: Tall Dwarfs, The Clean, Guided By Voices, The Vaselines
The Aquatic Safety is a 2-piece bedroom-pop experiment that has blown up worldwide. We have a lot of money. We do not sign autographs. We make lo-fi pop music because we think it makes us look cool to girls.
“brooklyn’s the aquatic safety are a concise and satisfying study in the possibilities of lofi music that retains its pop sensibilities” - modernfolk.net

10pm-12am- Moneco
Genre: New York Cumbiadelic
For fans of: Chicha Libre, Destellos, Juaneco y su Combo
MONECO is a band with a driving force and a new voice in the New York City music scene. They mix the edgy sound of one of the most musically diverse cities in the world with the traditional psychedelic cumbia sound of South America. When you hear it you will have no doubt as to why MONECO is referred to as “New York Cumbiadelic.”
“Moneco nailed the alternately spiky and spacy licks that make this stuff (Cumbia) so much fun…)
