About Forest Ray

Forest Ray

Forest Ray experiments in the analog and psychedelic, combining guitar driven psych rock with elements of raw synth-laced post-punk, Americana, garage and organ-laden pop. Following in the footsteps of Pacific Northwest greats from The Sonics to The Kingsmen, Forest Ray brings a new spin to the classic garage lineup but with the same youthful punk spirit. The songs regularly feature flute and vibraphone which have become staples of the group's brand of psych. Their uninhibited performances and analog recording process have bred dark, nostalgic and intimate recordings that almost feel as if they’ve come from another era.

About Enuft

Enuft

A bunch of big babies breaking through the barriers of mental health. Enuft is Billy Foxe (Vocals/synth), Andrew Nalty (guitar/BGV's), Joel Gronewold (lead guitar/BGV's), Morgan Brown (bass/BGV's), & Ryan Tomlinson (drums). Formed in the spring of 2018 this formidable five set out to cast a beacon of solidarity across the chop of modern day demands to those who seek solace in sound & expression.

About Kemper Thornberry

Kemper Thornberry

Kemper Thornberry can't help but write songs. They are honest and vulnerable, because that's the only way he knows how to write them. His music ranges from intimate folk arrangements to gritty alternative rock, the common thread being the melody and lyricism that Kemper learned to create through.

He was born to a family of artists in Montgomery, Alabama and is deeply influenced by the music of his upbringing. In 2018 He was drawn to Seattle because of its atmosphere and musical history, but found a much more fitting home in Tacoma and the authentic, humble art scene it houses. He has released multiple solo albums and his band, Miss January, is going to release its first EP this summer.
