Tommy Oeffling w/ Sit Pretty- 21+
Tommy Oeffling makes his music in a bedroom on the second floor of a rather unassuming duplex in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, and you can tell. You can hear every step he takes, every creak of his chair, every flubbed guitar part, and every breath he takes in his recordings, and he likes it that way. He wants it to feel human, and purely from himself and his upbringing; his music calls back to the CDs his Dad burnt onto an iPod Nano gifted to him for Christmas when he was eleven, and he feels it’s supposed to. Some call it nostalgic. He can’t tell. He also doesn’t really care. He’s currently in school to be a high school history teacher. He likes cooking dinner for his friends and going on half marathon-long walks a whole lot more than music. And you can tell that, as well. Some call it slacker rock, and they’re not wrong. His music comes across as if he just so happened to make it, and that’s exactly what makes it. His new album, “Picture of Health,” is out June 6th, 2025. Its ten tracks total to a mere 34 minutes, and its theme is just as simple; it’s really nothing more than an album about being twenty, made by a twenty-year-old. And you can tell.

Nuovo Testamento w/ NUXX – 21+
The Los Angeles-based trio, Nuovo Testamento, is lighting up the dance floor with their uniquely dark italo disco-flavored pop hits. Following the release of the coldwave cult favorite Exposure EP in 2019 on Avant! Records, their acclaimed full length, New Earth, exploded onto the scene with its graceful touch of 1980s-influenced club elements, contagious rhythms and the powerful punch of synthpop. The release was widely considered across genres to be one of 2021’s best underground albums. With the release of their highly anticipated second LP in early 2023, Love Lines, Nuovo Testamento continued to explore the light, the dark and exultant personal power in what will undoubtedly become an instant dance classic. Following a celebrated remix for Scowl and full North American tours supporting the Soft Moon and Molchat Doma, Nuovo Testamento is on tour in the US and Europe throughout 2024. — Nuxx is the electro project of musician and visual artist Madeline Seely, whose gritty, high-energy sound blends elements of EBM, 90’s techno, big beat, drum and bass, and digital hardcore. Known for her electrifying live performances, Seely has taken Nuxx on tours across North America, Europe, and Mexico. Her high-energy sets provide the audience with a raw, immersive experience. From the festival stage to the floor of a basement, Nuxx never fucks around.
