Black Thunder
https://blackthunder.bandcamp.com/
Black Thunder’s heavy psychedelia has been mutating in subterranean Regina Saskatchewan since 2009. Drawing upon the musical instincts of a trio of metal-and-psych-adjacent album hunters, their music builds in the borderlands between the labyrinths of progressive rock guitar riffs, boggy 70s hard psych basslines, and the amphetamine alleyways of proto-glam drumming.

Zoon
https://bloom14.bandcamp.com/releases
With a clear love of the early days of shoegaze (think Kevin Shields) and a romantic appreciation for all things Brian Wilson, Hamilton, Ontario’s Zoon are the harbingers of something new in this world. They have guitars, drums and other contraptions, yes, but it’s what they do with them that sets them apart. They sing too, often over each other – a cappella, like they used to do back in the day. They are “young and full of life” and subsequently so is their music, which often takes an ethereal reverbed out POP twist.

Dialtone
https://dialtone666.bandcamp.com/releases
Dialtone is a collaborative effort of Amber Goodwyn (Natural Sympathies, Cobra & Vulture) and Piper Burns (The Steves, Hit the Streets). Formed in the midst of flight and yet to settle, Dialtone conveys the all-too-familiar feelings of waiting on the other end of line with nothing but your own warm breath to keep you company. The band will debut their songs and release their first EP on Willow Island during Swamp Fest 2019. Topics expected to be covered include: the sands of time, cyclopes, and fate.

Lord Byron
Continuing in the bardic tradition, Lord Byrun cherishes and champions the inherent power of songs. Cutting his teeth as a member of Indigo Joseph, he is constantly working his craft by observing, learning and questioning. Having begun as a wordsmith, over the past 10 years he has slowly studied and taught himself guitar, bass, synthesizer, piano, and drums. Not claiming any virtuosity, he attests that curiosity and a sincere pleasure in playing and learning drive his musical quest. Known for his profound lyrics and intense deliveries, this student of the song holds it as his personal tenant to strive for excellence as a performer and composer.

Scotch & Water
https://www.scotchandwater.de
Music helps you find inner peace – even in tough situations. You choose the right music for your specific condition. While listening to Scotch & Water you better be in an old trailer driving through a foggy and abandoned forest – just as lonely as you can be. Take your time, inhale, exhale, release the weight from your shoulders. These songs are about brutal honesty and restrained hopefulness.
