HEY CHAMP
Recent signed to Seattle-based indie, Townie Records, Chicago's Hey Champ's debut album, Star, represents an amalgamation of several styles. The music incorporates influences from rock to the power-pop of Rockford's hometown heroes Cheap Trick and the synth-heavy productions of Giorgio Moroder and Trevor Horn. Their infectious sound is also reflected in their energetic live performances, which have led to them being named the “Best Discovery of Lollapalooza” by SPIN.

THE BUTTERFLY BONES
"For some, this is the sound of sunshine: gleeful synths, featherlight melodies, no-fuss rhythms, and laidback tempos for dancing when it's too hot to dance. More specifically, it's all about the attitude of those ubiquitous electronics - smooth, smiling, just happy to be there. In five songs and 22 minutes, Bay Area newcomers Butterfly Bones drop the soundtrack to your Indian summer." --East Bay Express
