THE SPILL CANVAS

With a slew of albums under their belt including 2005’s One Fell Swoop, 2007’s follow-up No Really, I’m Fine (which was released on Warner and reached the number 2 spot on Billboard’s Top Heatseekers chart), 2012’s Gestalt and 2018’s EP Hivemind, the Spill Canvas has returned with Conduit, its first LP in almost a decade. Listening to these 10 songs it’s clear that Conduit is more than a new Spill Canvas album. Rather, it’s the start of a second phase for the band. Together, vocalist Nick Thomas, longtime bassist Landon Heil, drummer Bryce Job and lead guitarist Evan Pharmakis, reached deep into Thomas’ heart and soul to create something that bristles with the earnest, emotional urgency that was always at the band’s core, but which also reflects who Thomas is now and everything that made him into that person. Conduit was recorded at Soundmine Studios in the Pocono Mountains in Pennsylvania. Self-produced by the band with help from their manager John Rupp, it was mixed by Soundmine Studio owner Dan Malsch and then mastered by GRAMMY Award-winning mastering engineer Emily Lazar (Beck, the Foo Fighters, Coldplay, Haim and The Killers). The result is a collection of rich, full songs that, while still recognizable as The Spill Canvas, certainly highlight Thomas’ intention for this to be the start of something new. At its heart, though, the purpose of the band remains the same as it always was – to write songs that move people and to be able to connect with them.

MOM ROCK

Forming in Boston in 2018, the hard-hitting alt rock outfit Mom Rock combines the forces of Curtis Heimburger (guitar, vocals), Wilson Reardon (drums), and Tara Maggiulli (bass, vocals). They got their start taking Boston’s diy music scene by storm, and since have stolen the hearts of show-goers with their electric live sets, infectious original tunes, and signature monochromatic get-ups.

Mom Rock has surpassed 4,500,000 streams on Spotify alone, reaching an audience of 600k+ listeners worldwide. The “Grand Romantic Life" EP was released as a series of singles from April 2019 to January 2020, followed by the EPs “I Wish Every Day Was Today” and “A Song With a Happy End.'“

GHOSTWOODS

Formed in the autumn of 2018, Ghostwoods quickly got to work writing songs combining the heavy distorted melodies of Nirvana and the catchy, yet cutting lyrical content seen in bands such as Brand New and The Cure.

Thematically, Ghostwoods’ songs dive deep into subject matter ranging from love and life, to sex, death, and the coping mechanisms (healthy or otherwise) that we use to keep it all in check. Much like a ghost story, their songs delve into reconciling with the past, facing the present, and moving on into the future, free of one’s haunted past.

Throughout it all, the band musically pays tribute to the bands of the early 90s grunge scene that led each of them to pick up their first instruments and start playing music. This came through most recently with their cover of Nirvana’s Scentless Apprentice (complete with a remixed version of their previous cover of Something In The Way).

The of their dark vulnerable lyrics and upbeat music demands repeated listens, at first for catchy melodies and then for the lyrics which are as poetic as they are hauntingly real.

Their debut 6 song EP “Faded Silent Films” was released in October of 2020 and they are currently recording a full length record set to release in early 2023. The first single, “Let Me In”, and second single, “Spider”, off of said upcoming full length are out now on Bandcamp and all major streaming platforms.
