Death by Drowning is a King Crimson tribute band featuring members of Northeast Ohio bands Co-Conspirator, Skeptic Lens, and Megachurch.  The group was originally formed for a one-off set at Earthquaker Day 2025, but growing public demand- and increasingly outrageous financial offers- eventually coaxed the band out of retirement. Death by Drowning utilizes dual Warr Guitars, touch-style instruments with an extended range of bass and guitar strings. Combined with traditional instrumentation, the ensemble creates exciting interpretations of the 70's era of Kind Crimson, while adding new dimensions to faithful renditions of the 80's repertoire.  Lineup:  Tom McCain - Guitar  Morgan Phelps - Warr Guitar Robert Wright-Stasko - Warr Guitar / Vocals Eric "Bones" Nepodal - Vocals Brian Hill - Bass Dan Price - Drums

Hailing from the Cleveland area, this rock trio has carved out their sound with grinding riffs, thunderous drums, and an unapologetic love for volume. Their songs hit hard but stick like glue- fuzzy, heavy, and packed with hooks that refuse to let go.

Formed in the fall of 2006, FUSS immediately entered an 18-year hibernation, mastering the subtle art of doing absolutely nothing. Nearly two decades later, they’ve emerged from obscurity to proudly secure their place as Cleveland’s 5th worst band—a distinction they embrace with pride.

Tom Evanchuck is a storyteller on stage, weaving through tales of love and heartbreak, friendship and the allure of the Midwest. But this is also a musician that seems born from another era. Drawing on the influences of the likes of Bob Dylan, Otis Redding, Neil Young and even the Beatles, Tom Evanchuck is carving his own way into a formidable niche. Coming from the Midwest, Tom Evanchuck never strays too far from his roots. You hear it in the raw guitar, and Tom’s ability to both croon and crank out a harder song at a moment’s notice on stage to provide a true experience, and a chance to envision the early days of folk, blues, or rock ‘n’ roll. Tom is built to transform your way of listening to this style of music, always experimenting, always working to establish a mood and presence everywhere he play's. There is real honesty in his music, a certain desire for expression and inspiration from everyone involved, including the audience. With those goals in mind, Tom Evanchuck is ready to usher in the new era of Americana classics.
