Other Lives is an American band formed in Stillwater, Oklahoma, by multi-instrumentalists Jesse Tabish, Jonathon Mooney, and Josh Onstott. Known for their cinematic sound and orchestral arrangements, the group emerged with a distinct musical identity that blends classical influence, emotional depth, and sweeping melodies. With roots in the windswept prairies of the Midwest, they’ve built an international following through their expansive live performances and richly layered studio recordings. Now a five-piece band, the group includes vocalist and songwriter Kim Tabish and producer-percussionist Danny Reisch, adding new textures and creative collaboration to the fold. Across five albums, Other Lives has continued to evolve, expanding their sonic palette while staying grounded in their original spirit of experimentation and storytelling. Their music is both intimate and epic, drawing on a range of influences that span from chamber music to post-rock and modern folk. Whether on stage or in the studio, Other Lives remains dedicated to crafting immersive soundscapes that resonate deeply and endure.

Kelcey Ayer is a Colombian-American artist based in Los Angeles. In 2024, after spending 20 years as a co-founder/singer/songwriter of indie-rock veterans Local Natives, in addition to his brooding side-project Jaws of Love., he decided to walk away from both projects to embrace something new. For years Ayer felt split down the middle between these two projects, but once his son was born in early 2023, everything changed. The experience of becoming a father seems to have stitched these two sides of Ayer into one whole, new person. The result is Ayer's first two EP’s under his given name entitled No Sleep and Hand Me Downs, both self-engineered and self-produced in his home studio in east LA, and released in 2025. From the passing down of stories to his newborn son about dead neighborhood dogs, to the sleepless mania every new parent shockingly discovers, both EPs cover the horrifying realities, minuscule details, and daily bursts of endless love that come with fatherhood. Ayer is currently finishing his first solo debut record under his own name.
