Black Denim Blues is a Chicago-based four-piece alternative rock band blending heavy blues grooves with grunge-driven grit. Anchored by powerful, soulful vocals, they deliver a bold, edgy sound that brings modern intensity to timeless influences.

50k Check is a Chicago band that blends 70s post-punk, 60s psychedelic pop, and a noisy indie rock that gives every song its own unique vibe. On their debut album released with Shuga Records in 2024, songs build from pin-drop quiet to all-encompassing layers of sound, others peel a song, layer by layer, to reveal their essence. Behind Kelly Torch’s soaring vocals, the band sways between melody and fuzz, groove and trance, dance and lounge. 50K Check is Kelly Torch on vocals, Mason Payne on guitar, Kisira Hill on bass, Michael Jacobson on drums, and David Green on keys.
