Named after ghostly voices, Raudiver traces a winding path through goth pop and darkwave, with ethereal vocals and hazy shoegaze textures anchored by danceable beats. Married duo Lauren Villarreal Eddy and Charlie Eddy push through their shoegaze/dream pop origins in EL LAGO to explore new and more personal expressions, crafting songs from a Victorian studio that weathered the disastrous 1900 Storm on Galveston Island. 

In anticipation of their debut album, Leave Before Dark, Raudiver joined TEMPTRIX on tour, and the duo has also opened for Provoker, HighSchool, Haunt Me,  Nite, and more. Leave Before Dark is due this September, Friday the 13th, on Geodesic Records.

The Sour Notes are known for their cross-genre, DIY aesthetic, self-releasing a prolific catalog of music on vinyl, cassette and CD. They have toured nationally over ten times, making appearances at CMJ, SXSW, NXNE, Fun Fun Fun Fest, The UMS, Free Press Summer Fest and have shared stages with such diverse bands as The Dandy Warhols, Of Montreal, Foxygen, Future Islands, We Are Scientists, Marnie Stern, Albert Hammond Jr. and Daniel Johnston.

In Memory Keepers, duo Jared and Amarah Boulanger dive deep into their musical tendencies. Guitar hooks cut through distorted samples and vocals, coasting on driving beats and bass synth lines. Audiophiliac homages to heroes past swirl alongside lighthearted wordplay and it's darker undertones. A series of upcoming 7-inch single releases (and accompanying digital releases), as well as gigging in and around their Austin, TX homebase keeps them busy.
