claire rousay presents a little death – 21+
claire rousay’s music cascades from a well of documented experience, reflections of the past that compose the present. A prolific multi-instrumentalist, producer, and composer, rousay gracefully crafts boundaryless music. From her frequent and acclaimed collaborations to her film scoring, from her own compositions to her solo pop work, rousay’s music is delicate yet powerful, carefully constructed with a casual intimacy. rousay collages a wealth of found sounds and field recordings with earthy strings, stately piano, and processed instrumentation, all of which trace the outlines of memories and distinct impressions and create a complex constellation of feeling. a little death illustrates rousay’s ability to sculpt sonic microcosms from disparate raw materials, worlds where sound and feeling are one in the same. Shaped around field recordings she captured at dusk, the album is an homage to the gentle drifts and lurking disquiet of twilight. The process of composing a little death felt like a homecoming for rousay after the more pop-oriented song forms of 2024’s sentiment. “sentiment was a different way of working that helped refresh my music making habits and usual flow,” rousay notes. “This record is a return to what I see as my core solo practice, a re-dedication to those methods of working which I’ve found most align with what I envision my music or sound to be.” Intended as a part of a trilogy along with a heavenly touch and a softer focus, the pieces on a little death sprout from a wellspring of tactile samples and granularly processed sounds. The use of sounds recorded from her life outside of the studio remains a throughline in her work. While the previous two albums used field recordings as the primary sound source or central figure in the compositions, here they act more as springboards, timbrally intertwining with live instruments like additional voices in a chamber ensemble. Captured as daylight fades into memory, the sounds give a subtler diaristic impression, the recordings occupying a more elemental space which give moments of absolute clarity a shine in the dim gloaming. rousay’s music has evolved from confessional to conversational and excavates the rich emotional essence of each passage. Her work as both archivist and adept arranger and orchestrator merge sublimely into deeply honest and engrossing music. The pieces of a little death are charged with rousay’s voice while giving space for new interpretations and contexts. The shifting atmospheres act as fragments of perspective, each ecstatic instance opening itself to new perceptions. On a little death, rousay’s blend of pop sensibility and compositional acumen turn abstracted sounds into tangible feelings, its warm, glimmering glow coalescing sensually with the darkness.
Madi Gaines (Album Release Show!), Myriads, Found Space – 21+
Madi Gaines is a queer indie rock/ shoegaze artist from Portland, Oregon, known for her dreamy, reverb-soaked sound and emotional lyrics. Her music blends lush guitars and atmospheric vocals for a captivating, ethereal experience. She is set to release another single titled ‘Sad Dog’ off her debut record on August 28th, It’s a fun pop/rock ballad and an ode to the end of summer. Come catch her at Holocene for the release of her EP ‘Trinkets’ supported by local dream pop bands Myraids and Found Space. Founded in 2020 by songwriters Spen Oliver and Lillian Christopher, Found Space is Alternative turned Pop turned Electronic. After receiving organic buzz on their DIY releases, the duo’s shared love for atmospheric yet visceral songwriting solidified into a full blown project. Last year saw the release of the EP “Closer” on the Spirit Goth label, an “impressive set of fuzzy dream-pop and shimmery indie pop…” – KEXP. Found Space is now set to release their second EP “cloud study”, a sharp analysis of nostalgia and futurism. Since her early days of musical performance as a college student in Charlottesville, Virginia, Maria DeHart has been on a continuous journey of building her sound. Starting in 2018, the Portland, Oregon-based artist has traveled through a few distinct phases, going from acoustic songwriter to loop-pedal expert to full band frontperson. Her debut release, an EP called “Win Some, Lose Everyone” that was released in October of 2023 on the east coast-based indie label Self Aware Records, is a brief yet strong run of filled-out songs that signals a development in DeHart’s self-actualization. While prepping for its release, DeHart came to the realization that this would be the perfect time to adopt an official name for her project, Myriads, which nowadays includes much collaboration and feels significantly bigger than just herself. Myriads’ newest EP Find Ourselves Again is their first studio-recorded production, recorded and mixed by Joe Anderson at Helvete Studios in Portland, Oregon and mastered by Chris Baglivo at Jamtown Recording Studio in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. It’s an exploration in dream pop with a healthy dose of emo and folk influence. Overall, the EP is a study of love, happiness, depression, and the search for meaning in these universal human experiences. It’s Myriads’ most honest and thoughtful endeavor yet, and the group is excited for what is to come.

SEGO, Social Cinema – 21+
“Art-Punk by non-punk non-artists”—Utah bred and LA based, Sego first caught the attention of LA tastemakers with their penchant for avant-garde grooves helming indie-pop hooks. Since its genesis, Sego’s prolific output and experimental live shows have garnered all the accolades modern indie bands dream of—critical praise fromNPR,European tours, festival spots at Bonnaroo and Austin City Limits, and a national (Xfinity) commercial airing on the Olympics and theSuper Bowl.Living and recording together out of their downtown LA warehouse, Sego(Spencer,Thomas, Derv, and Kathleen) has just started releasing tunes from their3rd forthcoming full-length album. This offering expands upon their pop sensibilities and thematic musings while boasting all the resistance and intelligence that makes them the most compelling art-punks in the scene. Social Cinema is a new band with over a decade of history. More accurately, Social Cinema is the latest chapter in a decade-plus friendship and artistic journey evolving alongside the people behind the music. When three Wichita friends, Austin Engler and brothers Griffin and Logan Bush formed Kill Vargas in 2013 as young teenagers, they couldn’t have guessed that they’d all be still performing together a decade later. Along the way, the trio would cross paths with Nebraskan band, Death Cow, featuring Mari Crisler and Reed Tiwald. Between sharing bills and sleeping on each other’s couches after shows while on the Midwest DIY scene grind, the three and two would become inseparably close, and eventually join forces as five in 2021, under the new name Social Cinema. Whether it’s due to their years as touring musicians, gradually honed songwriting and stylistic ambitions from scrappy, garage-y roots, or some combination of all of the above, Social Cinema makes an immediate impression with seasoned beyond their years songwriting chops and a road-hardened work ethic and resolve to match. Since adopting the Social Cinema banner in 2021, the alternative/indie rock quintet has issued four EPs — 2022’s Causing Scenes and Repeat, Get Along, and Stay Numb in 2023 — and a number of singles highlighting the outfit’s multifaceted songcraft prowess, and has shared bills with the likes of Metric, Saint Motel, Slothrust, The Velveteers, Spiritual Cramp, Bad Bad Hats, Sego, THICK, PUP, The Macks, and more. After releasing Stay Numb in Spring 2023, Social Cinema dropped its compilation album which is the sum of all three EP’s that they released that year, along with two new songs.Titled It’s Nice to Meet You: Singles Collection, the ten-track release continues Social Cinema’s adoption of professional studio polish, this time bringing that refinement to the direct, galvanizing punch of the band’s garage rock roots. Spanning territories that range from anthemic power-pop on the opener and title track, “When Is It Ever That Easy?,” to the groovy and grittiness of “Healer,” this latest chapter in Social Cinema’s journey is a celebration of the sounds and scenes that got each of its five members to where they are today. Whereas all of their EP’s released in 2023 showcased the quintet’s ambitions to bring its sound to new, more stylistically dynamic and fresh territories, It’s Nice to Meet You is a loud and proud assertion of the band’s DIY ethos and the wallop of its no-frills rock roots not only intact, but stronger than ever. New Music from Social Cinema will be out to the world in the first half of 2025.
