+Nite Music- Nite Music is a NYC rock n' roll band established in 2022. Their goal is to bring the original thesis of rock n’ roll: two electric guitars, bass and drums, into the 21st century, an expression of freedom and ecstasy for the post-apocalypse. Named after the “Night Music” (1988-1990) the live music TV program presented by Michelob (with a nod to “Nick at Nite”) the band was formed by Jamie Frey, the former frontman and songwriter of NO ICE and The Brooklyn What, recruiting three vital members of the NYC music community: guitarist Bryan Thornton of Holy Tunics and drummer Jamie Williams and bassist Amanda Webster, formerly of Phil From Accounting. Their inspiration spans from the Great American Songbook and the Brill Building to post punk, disco and art rock. Listed as one of the hardest working bands in New York City by the Oh My Rockness blog in 2023 and 2024, Nite Music have brought their soulful ballast to everywhere from backroom dives and DIY basements to prestige venues across America.
+The Planes-The Planes were founded in 2009 in a dilapidated Brooklyn apartment by Massachusetts-born songwriter Stephen Otto Perry and a loose collection of friends. Soon a regular lineup was formed and the band began playing local shows in venues that are now all banks, condos, or overpriced restaurants. They released their first full-length album in 2011, and since then have chugged along with a rotating cast of characters to release five more albums, four EPs, and a handful of singles. Through sporadic gigging, half-hearted DIY promo, and the kind words of a few bloggers, DJs, and playlisters, The Planes have built a small global fanbase, from London to New London.
