Veradas, Die Right, Mike Mannequin – 21+

Veradas brings an onslaught of sludgy riffs, tribal drums, harmony vocals, arty effects, and cathartic hooks. In some form or another, they’re inspired by shoegaze, jazz, funk, 1990s grunge and alt-rock, Kraut rock, the madness of the Aussies, and the abandonment of the Pacific Northwest. Their music is a cathartic purge of modern angst rendered as serrated psychedelic art-punk grunge.

 

 

With members originally hailing from the Bay Area, LA and London, Die Right blends their musical backgrounds into something fresh, exciting, and undeniably fun.

 

Mike Mannequin is a melodic post-punk band from Portland, Oregon, blending moody landscapes with bursts of garage rock energy and ambient punk undertones. With a goal of making spooky pop, their sound is both haunting and dynamic.

Founded by Michael Young, a fixture in Portland’s music scene for over 20 years, the band features members from acts like Corrina Repp, King Who, and Brother’s Young. Rooted in the city’s grassroots music community, Mike Mannequin crafts evocative songs that resonate with fans of dark, melodic sounds.
