Dining Dead is a Seattle-based music project consisting of Seattle natives Emma Hayes (guitar) and Sammy Skidmore (vocals, guitar) with Bogie Pieper (drums) and Shannon Hargis (bass), hailing from Monterey, CA and Nashville, TN respectively. Dining Dead is a blend of West Coast style and the American South, combining moody, melancholy twang and soul-baring songwriting with edgy, lyric heavy, surf rock-inspired licks to create their unique Pacific Northwest-inspired sound. Dining Dead released its debut album, Medium Rare, in February of 2021 preceded by four singles and a five-song EP, Takeout. “This Seattle band’s debut full-length album is a promising set ranging from moody, folk-tinged rock reminiscent of Mazzy Star to crunchy, hook-filled indie rock,” says Don Yates, Music Director at KEXP.

glass egg is the dream pop-ish imagination of Seattle-based songwriter and producer Emilia Glaser. Growing up in the Snoqualmie Valley just outside of Seattle, Emilia’s songwriting took shape at the convergence of the lonesome misty river valley and the PNW indie scene of the 2010s. In honest DIY form- Emilia writes songs sitting on the floor of their bedroom, records vocals in a closet, and obsesses over production and mixes from a coffee table desk. The addition of Julian Stefanzick on bass and percussion expanded glass egg's sonic realm to its current iteration. Simultaneously ubiquitous and unpinnable, glass egg’s timbre spins motifs of dream pop sweethearts such as Cocteau Twins and Chromatics, but shifts in alternative and less refined directions as if with a growing pain. glass egg’s latest record visions & ecstasies (10.10.25) gained recognition from KEXP and college radio across the country, as well as being named in the Seattle Times’ list of 15 of “The best albums of 2025 from Washington artists”.  glass egg’s latest offering visions & ecstasies (10.10.25), borrows its title from a collection of essays of the same name by modernist poet and imagist movement staple, H.D. (b.1886). Circling themes of theory in and of artistic process, ephemeral consciousnesses, and dissecting the many contexts of love- visions & ecstasies is as nebulous as it is personal. 

Reverse Death takes an unusual approach to the psych/garage genre, conjuring hazy ambiance, fragile lyrics, and night and day dynamics from the heaviest doom to the faintest whisper. Channeling fire from the SF garage explosion, feels from 60s heartbreakers, and brush strokes from the ambient drone world, Reverse Death finds an uncharted landscape of beauty and destruction to call home. Based in Seattle, WA, they have performed with artists such as Los Dug Dugs, Juan Wauters, Mr. Elevator, Six Organs of Admittance, Sir Richard Bishop, Mega Bog, and Sunwatchers.
