The Paranoyds have the kind of connection people only dream of: as non-biological sisters who have known each other longer than they haven't and speak a language that no one else can understand. With a bond that began in preschool, Laila Hashemi (keys/vocals) and Lexi Funston (guitar/vocals) were always inseparable, so when they met Staz Lindes (bass/vocals) in ninth grade, it felt like they had known her all along. After all, they were a “package deal.” In high school, they began making music together in a friend’s laundry room and their relationship just blossomed from there. When it came time to add in a drummer, David Ruiz, who joined the band in 2015, fit in like he had been there all along. It's that special bond that has solidified their relationship as bandmates who connect seamlessly to one another’s energy on stage—and best friends. And it's the one thing that has remained a constant throughout the past two years.
NYC's Firstsex was born from witchy slumberparty (emphasis on party) energy, shadow work, and late-night revelations between Nikki Sisti (THICK guitarist/ vocalist) and Elena Childers (DJ Tiny Hands). Joined by Andrea Scanniello (Dropper/ Shannon Shaw) on bass and photographer Tess Fulkerson on drums. Blending sexuality, humor, and emotional healing, their performances are high-energy and filled with tchotchkes and choreographed dance. Their immersive experience creates an inclusive, coven-like space where the parts of you that society forced to quiet down can finally get the spotlight.
95 Bulls are a Brooklyn/Queens-based band that blends garage-punk, psych, post-punk, and synth-wave into an electrifying sonic assault. Their approach is an unapologetic
blend of driving, fuzzed out guitar and searing-synth anxiety. They channel the raw energy of their DIY roots, while pushing the boundaries of modern rock.
