Puff Puff Beer:

Puff Puff Beer is an Oakland based sextet that covers a huge spectrum of music, with an impressive and hard to describe realness. Funky basslines, jazzy keys, and rock guitar riffs fuse with smooth, soulful vocals to create cohesive songs. Whether the topic is their favorite French basketball star to being flat out broke with an alcoholic girlfriend, every track is a celebration and they entice the listener to groove to the music. Simply put, there ain’t no party like a PPB party!

Thundersandwich:

Thundersandwich, a progressive funk-rock act hailing from Lincoln, Nebraska, are proponents of a single ethos, “to have fun and be fun.” The four-piece has developed a following based on its electric live performances and immediate, danceable tunes. Paired with a disparate background in funk, psych, and heavy metal, with a heavy dose of electronics, it is equal parts unpredictable and familiar. At any moment, Thundersandwich is capable of shifting grooves on a dime, from upbeat dance music to the “sort of country music made on Mercury.”

With a sound big enough to fill theaters and a groove tight enough to send packed basements into a gyrating frenzy, the band is known for marathon performances and deep, extended grooves. The band is currently finishing their first LP and dazzling audiences throughout Nebraska.
