The Jo Shmos are a five-piece indie alternative band made up of close friends who bring energy and passion to their music. Their content dives into the messy realities of coming of age-- love, hardship, substance abuse, mental health, and the ever-changing dynamic of family and friendship-- turning real experiences into electric, emotionally charged songs. The Jo Shmos are Katie, Andy, Delia, Frank, and Spencer. They like to make music that feels honest and alive.
"I wrote most of these songs in my childhood bedroom in the wee hours of the night when it was just me and the silence," says Katie. "I’ve written these songs over the past 5 years and you can feel the aging throughout the album. I wrote about the things that were troubling or on my mind the most as a 18-23 year old. You could basically call this album my diary, it’s open and honest. Making this album turned all of these painful or elevated feelings into art that I am extremely proud of."
The Jo Shmos, Sugardeer, Cherry Yachtsman

Cherry Yachtsman
Rock
Cherry Yachtsman is an indie-folk/rock band based in Cleveland, OH, led by singer‑songwriter Ryan McCarthy and expanded into a full band lineup with Josh Khavari (guitar), Katie Custer (drums), Arick Samoros (bass) and Delia Brennan (Keys). They began as a lo-fi solo folk project and released their self-titled debut album in April 2021, followed by Leatherbound EP, Camel (2022), and their latest full-length Stag in July 2024. Known for intimate, improvisation‑rich live shows across Northeast Ohio—playing venues like the Rialto Theatre in Akron and Brothers Lounge in Cleveland—they blend earnest lyricism with spontaneous musical interplay. Their sound draws from classic Americana influences like John Prine, Neil Young, and Wilco, and their breakout single “Transcend the Pedestal” highlights both emotional sincerity and collaborative energy.
