Show Details

Yam Yam creates vibrant, soulful music, drawing from jazz, gospel, jam, and funk. The band, from Harrisburg, PA, consists of Michael Dempsey on piano and organ, Xander Moppin on bass, Jason Mescia on saxophone, Tom Fuller on guitar, and brother Tyler Fuller on drums. Together, they create an energetic, soulful, and psychedelic sound that has captivated audiences across the United States.

Plazmatic delivers a blend of funk, jazz, and rock with a tech-friendly, modernist sensibility and just a bit of a devil-may-care attitude.The group’s sound is defined by thick grooves and improvisation over non-traditional song structures.

Freak Mythology's debut self-titled album was released in April of 2017, yielding an Album of the Year Award (2017) from UK rock blogger Pete Divine, national radio airplay, and numerous festival slots around the midwest. In August of 2017, Freak Mythology placed 1st in Cincinnati’s Next Big Band Competition. Shortly thereafter, they placed 1st in one of the largest battle of the band's style competition in the Midwest, the Madison Theater Band Challenge, propelling them in the local scene and sending them on their first tour hitting 14 cities in the Midwest & East Coast.
