Bayonne’s music captures the indescribable. For 10 years, the Austin, Texas-based experimental avant-pop/electronic musician, born Roger Sellers, has been creating atmospheric soundscapes brimming with layers, texture, and deep emotional resonance. On his fourth and most immersive album to date, Filters, Sellers picks up where he left us on 2023’s mournful yet pop-minded Temporary Time. With its elegantly constructed melodies, silken synth-work, a sprinkle of field recordings, and an upbeat yet blissful blend of piano and percussion, Filters finds Sellers entering a new phase of existence as he works through the grief around losing his father and into a place of acceptance.   

Bobbing is the psych-pop indietronica project of Robert Luisi Ross, a multi-instrumentalist and producer based in Oakland, CA. After serving as lead guitarist for math-rock cult faves Feed Me Jack, Ross launched Bobbing in 2019, releasing an EP and two full-length albums, including 2023’s Year of the Newt. The aim of Bobbing's unique sound is to command the listener’s attention with intricate musicianship and trippy production, while imparting a general sense of excitement and positivity.
