The Up Up Ups:
"We're just four kids with a love of the finer things in life- power pop, rock and roll, and animals dressed like people." Influences: The Vibrators, the Briefs, Slaughter & the Dogs, Exploding Hearts, Elvis Costello, the Rezillos, the Bodies, the 101ers, the Only Ones https://theupupups.bandcamp.com/
ZERO FRIENDS:
Zero Friends is a pop punk solo project that began with a kid named Benjamin who decided to start recording DIY music in his bedroom because he was lonely and had nothing better to do. Since then Zero Friends has published 6 EPs, and Benjamin will join together with a few other musicians to play this event. The biggest influences of Zero Friends are Blink 182, Green Day, and Direct Hit! https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCqJHyGsteEwUWIR7efCuiHw
Pushin' it 2 the Limit:
Pushin' It 2 the Limit is the new band featuring Audrey Crash and Leta Gray of Ex Friends as well as drummer Mike Zwick. Basing their sound around a propulsive, hard-charging beat, the band has several obvious influences. But, by pulling so strongly, and so selectively, from various sources, the band creates an identity that pays homage to the classic riffers, but stands on its own. https://pi2tl.bandcamp.com/releases
