Creeping Charlie
(Minneapolis)
Genre: Indie Rock
On the heels of creeping charlie’s highly regarded debut EP, Asymmetrical, comes their eagerly
anticipated first full-length release, How to Kill Creeping Charlie. Lead
singer/guitarist/songwriter Julia Eubanks draws from a broad palette of influences, blending a
Patti Smith early punk ethos through a guitar-driven 90’s Seattle pastiche, interweaving sonic
experimentation with irresistible hooks. With this, the 10 tracks on How to Kill Creeping
Charlie—ranging from quietly reflective to all-out rocking—paint a vivid picture of youth and
the alienating times we live in, and how to find redemption.
Panik Flower
(New York, NY)
Genre: Dream-Pop
PANIK FLOWER is a dream pop band that materialized within the New York music scene in 2023. Started by childhood friends Sage Leopold (vocals) and Mila Stieglitz-Courtney (guitar/vocals), PANIK FLOWER has grown through chance introductions and Craigslist posts to include co-collaborators Jordan Buzzell (guitar), Max Baird (bass) and Marco Starger (drums). With a majority of the band’s members being native New Yorkers, PANIK FLOWER’s music is deeply reflective of the push and pull of their city, pairing atmospheric soundscapes with a restrained use of well-time punchiness.
Their soundscape of soft harmonies, hard-hitting instrumentals and cutting lyricism evoke the hazy nostalgia of distant memories — ones of love, loss and identity that have found audiences first in their immediate communities, and now to friends and strangers alike across the globe. With the release of rearview, the band’s sophomore EP sees them marrying their dream pop sensibilities with post-punk undertones.
Heavy Bend
(Milwaukee)
Genre: Indie
Heavy Bend is an alternative folk rock band from Milwaukee, WI. In 2024, the band surfaced in the city’s DIY music scene under the name BRONCO. They released their debut project For Friends and Family in early 2025 after amassing a local following. Ephemera at National Aquarium quickly followed, and the live album captured a stripped-back set of songs both new and old. Notes of the Violent Femmes’ emotional drive, The Microphones’ layered intensity, and Big Thief’s sincerity appear in their recorded and live material. The quartet punctuates intimate lyrics with instrumental gut-punches. Following in the footsteps of folk tradition, many of the songs speak deeply, yet directly, about the tension between selfhood and togetherness. As fuzz saturated guitars, blunt drums, and melodic bass lines swash forward, Heavy Bend forges their own path into the contemporary rock landscape, but not without reverence to their sonic forefathers. Vocalist and guitarist Slater Gutierrez, guitarist Noah Skilling, bassist Gage McNew, and drummer Ollie Battista’s performances meld to make something earnest, full, and evocative. After recently releasing two singles, “Scared to Know” and “Sidetracked” under their new name, Heavy Bend is working eagerly on their sophomore studio album.
