"You can feel broken and bad and that’s okay. It’s not a fatal flaw. Hopefully, you heal from it and come out stronger, better, and with a depth that’s beautiful in and of itself." - Maria Weissman
ZECHARIAH LLOYD – “HEART IN A NOTEBOOK” (EP)
"This EP, Heart in a Notebook was a crowdfunded album recorded at PlaidDog Recording in Boston, MA and is a handful of tunes that represent the versatility of my Songwriting.

Hush Bewlay – I’m A Stranger Here Myself
“The name is part homage to David Bowie’s ‘Bewlay Brothers,’ which I often sang as half of an acoustic duo in high school; and part telling myself to ‘hush,’ be quiet, stop saying you’re gonna do it someday and just do it. Releasing something, for me, has been a long time coming.” Hush Bewlay
AA-Legrand “Pacific EP”
AA-Legrand. This name carries two meanings: the letter A marks the beginnings with its placement as the first letter in the Latin Alphabet, and Legrand is the Big Unknown into which we all move in forward. The alias bridges indie folk sounds with soft downtempo electronic influences, forming music where the likes of Bon Iver go hand-in-hand with Apparat and James Blake.

El Peyote
BON SHREDDER – BON SHREDDER (EP)
Using a DIY approach to his craft, Shredder makes use of vintage sounds such like synths, 808 drumbeats, and an 80's sound that's both fresh and surrounding. Keeping it minimal, he uses just a few instruments and a single laptop. His goal is to translate his musical adventures and to show that you don't need a big studio to make music that you love.
DRIVING SOUTH – “DOG TRAP ROAD”
"This EP has really captured our live, at times imperfect sound. We know we could have found a polished vocalist and spent time on overdubs, but then it wouldn't be a Driving South EP" - Jürgen Joarder
Krys Blank – Big City
