Jonathan sets out to discover why - and why now, after 40 years.

Philly born and Cali raised, Giant Spectators' fuse disco elements with raw retro punk. Currently working on the ‘Back to Digital’ LP. Watch out for our first west coast show date soon!

Clay Hammer's music is born of not belonging - to a place, genre or people - and finding it, most acutely, in music.

Southern California desert rat in love with hip hop. Born again Christian struggling to find hope. Small-time farmer incensed at the cowardice of racism.

Influenced most heavily by the greats of hip hop, Clay Hammer draws inspiration from all genres and decades.

He can be found listening to Herb Alpert on road trips, folk music to please his wife, and instrumental/lyrical hip hop most days.
