It’s “sad sack soiree” with local supergroup Pretty Island and friends!
Mango Star blends indie rock, pop, and shoegaze influences to evoke sweet, sun-soaked nostalgia. Introspective and sometimes irreverent lyrics, feel-good melodic hooks and vocal harmonies intertwined with distorted guitars, lush synths, and atmospheric textures have drawn comparisons to the Pixies, Jesus and Mary Chain, Best Coast, The Rentals and My Bloody Valentine.
Neu Blume is a Detroit-based group led by Mo Neuharth and Colson Miller. They both love making dinner which is what you should picture as the backdrop of every song. The music is primarily alternative folk made for babies and pets during dinner. Sharing an air-tight musical bond, the duo push artful songwriting to the forefront accompanied by a rotating group of musical talent. Their sweet yet dissonant melody-driven songs are layered with warmth, classic harmonies, and sometimes, thoughtful lyricism.
Their sound began as an extension of the album Desire (Nanami Ozone, 2016). This group of jangly genre-overlapping songs was the first record they made together as original members of Nanami Ozone.Now, the two settle into a more intimate and mature sound, largely influenced by the life they live as midwestern transplants in Detroit embracing seasonal shifts and adulthood, while still employing the warm tones of their youth. oth musicians descend from Phoenix, Arizona.
