Northern Soul takes the Motown/Stax ethic but adds a stronger back-beat with more adventurous production, and The Inciters continue this tradition in grand style. With ten members (sometimes more!) wielding drums, bass, guitar, a full horn section, and three female vocals, The Inciters have no problem filling a room with the powerful sound of soul. The three vocalists lead the band through finely crafted original songs as well as traditional soul music that will get you out of your seat and start to dance! A-100s A-100s are a new band steeped n the traditions of ska, reggae and rocksteady, but the players are far from new! The core of the band is Matt Hensley (accordionist of Flogging Molly) and Sean Wheeler (vocalist of Throw Rag)! Although their best-known projects are known for their distinctive takes on Celtic punk and desert punk, respectively, both collaborators have a deep love of classic Jamaican reggae and ska. Hensley even previously played guitar & keys in the early 90s ska band Spy Kids, several members of whom contribute to A-100s in the studio and onstage.  Speaking of collaborators, the combined pedigree of the band is truly legendary in the annals of underground music. Members of Mariachi El Bronx, Mad Caddies, Smoke & Mirrors Sound Systes, and folks who have played alongside greats such as Jimmy Cliff, Symarip, Roddy Radiation and even Tom Petty! TXE FIT Txe Fit is a Santa Cruz-based Oi! band. The band came together in December 2022 when former Custom Fit members Micky, Mal, Collin, and Sabi reunited for a friend’s birthday celebration, with Matty on drums. What was originally intended as a one-off performance quickly turned into something more, and the band later became Txe Fit. In 2025, the band returned to the studio to record several previously unreleased Custom Fit songs along with two brand-new tracks. Those recordings became Scars & Stories, combining unreleased material from the Custom Fit years with new Txe Fit songs. The album will be released through Longshot Music and Try and Stop Me Records. Txe Fit writes songs about working-class life, inequality, and social and political issues, drawing influence from bands such as Camera Silens, X-Ray Spex, Buzzcocks, Blitz, and others.
