Astrachan
Astrachan (pronounced Astra-Can) is Ben Astrachan's solo recording project. He's in two other Chicago based bands called Astro Heart and Berta Bigtoe. Astrachan is a meditation of love, adventure, and friendship! Each song takes on the story of a moment that latched onto his heart with the tenderest of holds. The songs themselves are how he was able to make visible the sense-experience of each flicker in time that he traversed!
Good Deli
“Good Deli is the scrumptious musical project helmed by goofball-rocker, Andrew “Deli” Dell Isola. Self described as “sweet n tangy rock-n-folkabilly”, Good Deli’s sprawling and ever-expanding live roster boasts over 15 of the best and wackiest NY musicians. Each show is molded to the venue so you never know what you’re going to get! Expect smiles every time.”
Tiberius
For the last 5 years, Brendan Wright has spent a hell of a lot of time realizing their passion project Tiberius, recording and performing in basements, warehouses, bedrooms, and from time to time, in their car. Cacophonous and catchy, Wright's recordings blend indie punk, alt country and psychedelia. While conversational, yet confessional songwriting may not be a style particularly new across the modern DIYsphere' - Wright hopes their efforts to be genuine.
"I'm constantly afraid of being found out, so whenever I can, I just try to write honestly. I'm really flawed. My music is really flawed. I'd rather it just be what it is, than try to make it something that it's not".
In the live 'rock show format,' Wright leans on collaborators Kelven "KP" Polite (bass) and Sam Blumenstile (drums), to bring their journalistic blend of farm emo to life. In 2024, the band called on Pat King (pedal steel), and Harley Spring (guitar) to help broaden the band's already diverse catalog. From the angry to the ambient, the Tiberius live show offers intensity and heart, with an even warmer and rustic flair than before.
