EVIL CREEK
Formed in 2017, Evil Creek is an Ottawa based original rock band that has evolved into a hard hitting four piece acoustic outfit. With a stripped down setup and no need for elaborate production, they bring raw energy and a strong audience connection to any stage, whether it’s a packed pub or a festival crowd.
Blending gritty hard rock with dark country storytelling, their sound captures the soul of unplugged sessions while still delivering real punch. Built on years of live experience, their performances feel intimate, powerful, and authentic.
Evil Creek has earned Music Group of the Year at the Ottawa Awards in both 2022 and 2023, with their EP Away from the Sun (2023) taking Album of the Year. They’ve also performed and shared the stage with Jeff Martin (The Tea Party), Pat Travers, and Chris Holmes (W.A.S.P.), among others.
With releases including Dirt Road (2017), Rust (2020), and a steady stream of singles through 2025, the band continues to grow while working on their next full-length album.
From small rooms to big stages, Evil Creek proves stripped-down doesn’t mean scaled back.

COBRA QUEEN
Ariana, known professionally as Cobra Queen, is emerging from Manitowoc, Wisconsin as a powerful new voice with a story she now fully owns. More than a singer-songwriter, she’s rebuilt her identity from the ground up, leaving behind her former name, Kopecky, and stepping into Williquette as a symbol of personal and creative rebirth. That transformation, from a life once shaped by circumstance to one driven by her own vision, fuels every note she delivers. Her sound is bold, resilient, and cutting, captured in releases like Venom Veins, where raw emotion meets hard-earned strength. Blending a fierce, rebellious edge with deep-rooted loyalty to her family and origins, Ariana has crafted the Cobra Queen persona, unapologetic, driven, and impossible to ignore. With her foundation in Manitowoc and her sights set far beyond it, she’s ready to take her voice to a global stage.

DECYBEL
Formed in late-’90s Houston, Texas, Decybel, guitarist Erick Stegall, bassist Nico Guerrero, drummer Jeremy Easter, and vocalist Chris Clayton, emerged with a clear intent: shake up the local scene. Their earliest days were humble, playing private parties and hosting open rehearsals for friends and family, armed with only a handful of originals and a setlist padded with covers.
Momentum built quickly. As attention grew, so did the band’s ambition. A lineup shift saw Jeremy Easter step away, with his younger brother Eric Easter taking over on drums, an evolution that helped solidify Decybel’s sound. With the new formation locked in, the band pushed into more intricate territory, crafting songs driven by unconventional time signatures and a heavier emotional edge.
That creative leap translated to the stage. Crowds swelled, venues filled, and Decybel became one of Houston’s most in-demand acts, consistently drawing large audiences and commanding some of the city’s top spots. Their rise held strong for several years until internal tensions led to a hiatus, one that unexpectedly stretched into 17 years.
Now reunited in 2025, Decybel is picking up where they left off. The band is re-recording and re-releasing their original material, with plans to turn toward new music following the long-awaited release of their album Ripple Effect later this year.

FICKLE HILL
Based in Irvine, United States, Fickle Hill is the creative force of James, a multi-instrumentalist with a musical journey spanning more than three decades. Since the early 1990s, he has explored a wide range of styles, first developing his sound within the Southern California hardcore punk scene, touring from Los Angeles up to Victoria, British Columbia. By the late 1990s, he had become an active part of Northern California’s underground circuit, performing at the legendary Gilman collective and contributing to the growth of Humboldt County’s scene through support of Arcata’s Placebo venue.
Following college, James shifted focus toward his professional career but never stepped away from music. Working independently, he continued to experiment and create using tools like Impulse Tracker, Cubase, four-track recorders, and Reason, building an extensive and deeply personal catalog over the years.
After being laid off in 2024, he returned to music with renewed focus and intent. The discovery of DistroKid in June 2025 opened the door to finally share his work publicly, leading him to revisit and remaster thousands of tracks while continuing to write new material. That momentum carried into 2026, when Fickle Hill joined SODEH Records, bringing his genre-spanning sound to a wider global audience.
As James describes it, “Every album feels like a mixtape from me to you, each one capturing a moment in my life or state of mind. Some songs are just for fun, some are autobiographical, and others are experiments to see what I can create. I’ve always been pulled in too many musical directions to stay in one lane, and at this point, I’m not concerned with genre or labels. If you enjoy it, thank you. If not, I still appreciate you giving it a listen."

DANCE COMMANDER
Out of Oslo, Norway, Dance Commander is a sharply dressed rock outfit that has spent the past decade building a solid reputation through relentless touring both at home and across Europe. With a sound rooted in high-class rock ’n’ roll, they channel the raw punch of bands like Danko Jones and AC/DC, while carrying the unmistakable attitude of fellow Norwegian acts Turbonegro and Gluecifer. The result is a hard-hitting yet refined energy that lands with impact, powerful, polished, and impossible to ignore.
Following their 2016 release Decadance, the band returned on July 2, 2018, with the EP Dance Against the Machine. The response was immediate, with the EP surpassing 10,000 streams on Spotify within its first month, contributing to a growing total of over 100,000 streams including their debut album.
With momentum building, Dance Commander continues to bring their explosive live show back on the road, setting their sights once again on stages across Europe from summer through winter.

WRETCHED THINGS
Wretched Things is a nu-metal trio forged by brothers raised in the backroads of East Texas, where a shared past fuels a sound that’s both modern and unpolished. Their music pulls from metalcore’s intensity while leaning into something heavier and more visceral, driven by down-tuned riffs, textured atmospheres, and sharp melodic turns that collide with crushing breakdowns and uncompromising vocals.
There’s a constant push and pull in their songs, shifting between tension and release, restraint and impact. Lyrically, they dig into inner conflict, betrayal, and self-reflection, often threading in religious imagery that adds another layer of contrast and weight. Every track feels lived-in and deliberate, built to resonate as deeply as it hits hard.
At its core, Wretched Things channels real-life experience into something raw, loud, and undeniably honest.

EVERFELT
EverFelt is an American psychedelic groove metal band formed in the summer of 2022. The lineup features vocalist and lyricist Adam Steglich, guitarist Corey Robinson handling both rhythm and lead duties, Ryan Moore on rhythm bass, and Danny Furlong on percussion.
Drawing influence from artists like Alice in Chains, Audioslave, Pink Floyd, and Slayer, EverFelt blends hypnotic psychedelic textures with dark, melodic metal undertones. Their sound balances atmosphere and power, creating a driving, immersive experience that lingers long after the music ends.
For EverFelt, music is more than expression, it is the foundation of their existence. The band is deeply grateful for every listener who connects with their sound, and they remain dedicated to carving their mark into the minds of those who discover their music.

THE SPENT PRIESTS
The Spent Priests are a Brooklyn-based crooked rock trio delivering a raw, hard-hitting sound that echoes the grit of Queens of the Stone Age and the feral pulse of The Stooges. Rising from the industrial shadows of Brooklyn’s Gowanus Canal, the band crafts dark, unfiltered songs that confront inner turmoil and personal reckoning with unapologetic honesty.
Onstage, The Spent Priests are all sweat and voltage, visceral, physical performances that feel less like concerts and more like controlled detonations. Their shows channel chaos into catharsis, pulling audiences into the thick of it.
A fixture in the Brooklyn underground, they’ve played extensively across New York City, Manhattan, and New Jersey, carrying their no-frills intensity overseas to Cavan, Ireland. With a reputation for uncompromising live sets and a fiercely loyal local following, The Spent Priests continue to build momentum the old-fashioned way: loud, relentless, and real.
Easy listening for the hard of hearing.

DAYSICK
DaySick is a four-piece conceptual rock band from Nova Scotia, Canada, featuring Logan Steeves (lead vocals, guitar, production), Alex Hamilton (guitar, backing vocals, production), Mikey Smith (drums), and Mike Sampson (bass, backing vocals).
Blending pop-punk, post-hardcore, emo, and alternative rock, DaySick delivers emotionally volatile music that hits hard and cuts deep. Their sound is fast, cinematic, and story-driven, fueled by early 2000s punk energy but sharpened with modern intensity, darker themes, and ambitious sonic shifts.
Their debut concept album, recorded, mixed, and mastered by Alex Hamilton, follows a man suspended between life and death, forced to confront regret, fractured identity, and the cost of living for approval instead of truth. Each track unfolds like a chapter in his collapse, spiraling through self-destruction, moments of clarity, and the possibility of rebirth.
Now, DaySick is crafting their next release: a full-scale alternative rock opera centered on a man trapped inside a psychiatric ward, desperately trying to convince everyone, and himself, that he isn’t insane. As the story unravels, reality distorts, delusion takes hold, and nothing is quite what it seems.
But DaySick isn’t just a band.
It’s a condition.

RICHIE CROSS
Richie Cross is a U.S.-based punk and alternative rock artist whose music blends raw intensity, melodic edge, and introspective storytelling. Influenced by classic and modern punk, alt-rock, and post-hardcore, his sound pairs driving guitars and urgent rhythms with themes of awareness, resistance, and personal truth.
After stepping away from music earlier in life, Richie returned with renewed focus, channeling years of reflection into songs that confront disconnection, control, and the struggle to remain human in an increasingly numbing world. His writing goes beyond surface-level rebellion, exploring the emotional and psychological cost of conformity, identity erosion, and the quiet fight to stay conscious and present.
Between 2024 and 2026, he re-established himself through a steady release cycle, earning international support from radio stations, playlists, blogs, and music journalists across the U.S., Europe, and Latin America. His single “60 Miles An Hour” gained particular attention for its sense of movement and freedom. He is now signed to SODEH Records.
Richie is currently working on his upcoming full-length album Bridging The Gap, set for release on August 7, 2026. The project expands his punk and alt-rock foundation with heavier textures and deeper emotional range, exploring the space between survival and surrender, illusion and clarity, and autopilot living versus conscious choice. https://richiecross.com/

SCAMPI CHIPS DIP & CAMPARI
Scampi Chips Dip & Campari (SCDC) is a four-piece punk force from Bergen Norway, featuring Hanne Maren Meldahl (bass/vocals), Maiken Andreassen (guitar/vocals), Marit Antonsen Tjugum (drums/vocals), and Karoline Skuseth (keys/vocals). Between them, they’ve logged time in more Bergen underground bands than most scenes could handle, including MT Six, Disdain, Tafatt, Hindenbürg Rock & Grill, and The Wednesday Knights.
With over 50 shows under their belt, from a chaotic, unforgettable tour of China to a wind-machine-assisted main stage slot at Kanalrock, SCDC speaks a universal language of distortion, sweat, and pure punk energy. Back on the road over the past two years, they’ve torn through venues across Norway, from Vill Vill Vest to Rockeklubben in Porsgrunn, leaving ringing ears and fresh booking requests in their wake.
In a scene that still pushes women out as life gets louder, SCDC pushes back. They stand for punk as stubborn joy and survival, not age or gender. After a cassette EP, they’re now gearing up for a full album, aiming to bottle the same raw intensity that keeps stages, big and small, on the brink of collapse.
