Terriers is the songwriting project of musician Danny Cohen, a perennial sideman living in Chicago, IL. They have released two albums produced by Dan Duszynski (Loma, Any Kind) and are working on a third. Contorno is a Chicago-based rock n roll collective led by songwriter John Gargiulo. The band's music melds folky jangle rock with swampy grooves and fiery, Neil Young-inspired guitar solos. The EP includes a mixture of ambient-leaning instrumentals and vocal-based songs, drawing on a variety of earthy and atmospheric sounds and influences ranging from Ry Cooder to Brian Eno to Yo La Tengo. Join us to celebrate the release of their forthcoming EP "Prairie Blazing Star." Andy Rench is a Chicago-based songwriter and longtime presence in the city's music scene. He's self-released several home-recorded albums and EPs, drawing on guitar-driven indie rock, hazy psychedelia, and rootsy songcraft. His latest project finds him leading a full band as Andy Rench and the Backslant, with a debut album slated for release in 2027 on Silent Co-op.
