Macseal
Known for their infectious melodies, hooky guitar parts, and captivating live shows, Long Island’s Macseal emerged in 2015 with the release of their debut self-titled EP. Following a series of subsequent releases and a rigorous touring schedule, the band took a breath, got to writing, and reckoned with the aspects of life that inspired them to start a band in the first place.

The constant travel of a touring musician’s lifestyle makes it difficult to feel settled down and connected to loved ones in a meaningful way. When the world came to a full stop, the band took advantage of finally having time to reconnect with family, friends, and each other in ways they weren’t able to before. They found joy in the core of what they had, even when they had nothing else. The resulting album, Permanent Repeat, is the self-composed coming of age movie soundtrack to their own lives.
After weekly writing sessions in drummer Frankie Impastato’s grandma’s basement, Permanent Repeat took shape as the first Macseal release where each member resided in the same state, resulting in the four musicians having their strongest connection to date. Late 1990s and early 2000s pop-rock artists such as Fountains of Wayne, Michelle Branch, and The Goo Goo Dolls served as sonic and emotional benchmarks. The band throws in technical twists along the way, all while providing wistful anecdotes about touring, falling in love, and longing. Each song marries the glee felt as kids listening to those artists, and the fulfillment felt as adults finally figuring out what is most important to them. The amalgamation makes for Macseal’s most catchy and heartfelt record yet.

Suds
If there's anything that defines SUDS, it's friendship. Meeting through their love of the DIY scene currently emerging in Norwich, the band quickly found themselves gravitating towards writing songs together. The Undergrowth, SUDS ventured down to Kent to record with producer Ian Sadler (Roam, Anavae), ready to explore the next chapter of their story. Step forth debut album The Great Overgrowth, a record brimming with addictive melodies and gorgeous moments of optimism. Their evocative and sometimes literary approach to lyrics takes inspiration from midwest emo and the 1960s Greenwich Village folk scene. The band are already off to a flying start, conquering sets at 2000 Trees Festival, The Great Escape and Truck Festival, as well as sold out shows with Spanish Love Songs, Pool Kids and Martha. Their talent for achingly intelligent, relatable lyricism and a heft for devil-may-care creative output already puts them heads above the rest. SUDS might be fresh faced but have the maturity and drive to become one of the most exciting emerging artists.
