Event details

‘zoloft’ is a young, energetic indie rock band from Jefferson, OH. Their sound is a mix of the 90’s grunge/alt scene and 60’s/70’s psychedelic music.

All 6 members are still in high school and have almost lifelong friendships driving the band. Solely managed by themselves, they’ve released a lengthy catalogue of music within their first year working together, including twelve singles, two EPs, and three full-length albums. They are taking charge in the dead music scene of Ashtabula County, OH.

Cherry Yachtsman is an indie-folk/rock band based in Cleveland, OH, led by singer‑songwriter Ryan McCarthy and expanded into a full band lineup with Josh Khavari (guitar), Katie Custer (drums), Arick Samoros (bass) and Delia Brennan (Keys). They began as a lo-fi solo folk project and released their self-titled debut album in April 2021, followed by Leatherbound EP, Camel (2022), and their latest full-length Stag in July 2024. Known for intimate, improvisation‑rich live shows across Northeast Ohio—playing venues like the Rialto Theatre in Akron and Brothers Lounge in Cleveland—they blend earnest lyricism with spontaneous musical interplay. Their sound draws from classic Americana influences like John Prine, Neil Young, and Wilco, and their breakout single “Transcend the Pedestal” highlights both emotional sincerity and collaborative energy.  

Plum Shed is an alt-rock band from Cleveland. The lineup includes Beau Osickey (vocals/guitar), Will Hynds (guitar), Bob Martello (bass), and Kenny Statham (drums). Their sound blends powerful guitars, sharp lyrics, and tight rhythms, with a focus on energy and melody.
