Vicious Fishes

Founded in 2018, Vicious Fishes are a four-piece outfit whose swamp rock aesthetics easily tread the murky wavelengths between contemporary alternative rock and post-punk blues. At moments, their music clashes with a dense anxiety echoed in the audience's mosh pit. Haunted waltzes tremble with unresolved tension. Yet, in the angst, there’s the static buzz of an ever ringing phone call, an excitement and energy waiting to be captured.

Tracing a lineage of influence from the Clash to the Pixies, onward from the Violent Femmes to the Strokes, Vicious Fishes steady the sway of any room with their deference to the past. Romanticisms pair with wisdom though, and caustic critiques of conformity offer release from modern isolation to listeners across genres.

Their 2021 album Saturnalia Sweats is available now to stream; on March 17th 2023, Vicious Fishes are excited to release their fourth studio release, the EP All the Time at Ithaca's Deep Dive.

Richie Stearns

RICHIE STEARNS first discovered the pleasures of the old time banjo when he was 14. He’s traveled round the world, performing both traditional and his own original music, finding ways to collaborate with musicians from five continents (Africa/Asia/North America, Australia, Europe) as well as local musicians from diverse musical backgrounds (classical, jazz, country, R&B, and more). Over the past three decades, he’s written original music for film scores and dance ensembles as well his own bands (The Horse Flies, Evil City String Band, Ti Ti Chickapea, Donna the Buffalo, and the Renegades, among them) and collaborated with artists from a variety of disciplines to present public performances on stages through the U.S., Canada, and Europe, as well as on radio and television

Underground River

Underground River is the solo project of Johnson City, NY based artist, multi-instrumentalist, and recording engineer, Hunter Davidsohn. On his album, ‘Life Cycle, Delicate Song’ Hunter weaves a sonic tapestry combining elements of baroque pop, chamber psychedelia, and left field recording techniques to take the listener on a surprisingly romantic journey through heartbreak and self reflection.
