Hailing from the underground post-punk scene, The True Faith have quickly established themselves as a formidable force in modern alternative music. Fronted by Travis Benson, with Quentin Moyer on guitar, Dylan Kotliar on bass, and Francisco Ilabaca on synth, the band blends atmospheric melodies with driving rhythms, evoking the dark romanticism of The Cure, the anthemic power of early U2, and the brooding intensity of The Chameleons and The Sound. Following their critically acclaimed sophomore album, Go to Ground, released in 2023 on à La Carte Records, they’ve continued to evolve, pushing the boundaries of their sound while staying true to the raw emotion and cinematic textures that define their music. Their recent split 12″ with Bleached Cross further cemented their status as one of post-punk’s most compelling acts, and their newly released split 7″ with Demmers on Council Records showcases their continued ability to craft evocative and urgent songs. https://linktr.ee/truefaithx\\\\\\\\\\
Louse originated from the mid-pandemic precariousness in Cincinnati, Ohio. With influences indicative of early/mid ’80s post-punk/cold wave and early Alternative Rock.

Vida Eterna are a four-piece dream-pop/shoegazey alternative band from Kalamazoo, Michigan, with vibes akin to what you might hear on late ’80s, early ’90s college radio. Dreamy female vocals and pristine, shimmery to straight up dirty guitar sounds that you might imagine hearing at The Roadhouse in Twin Peaks.
***THIS SHOW IS ON THE 2ND FLOOR & ACCESSIBLE ONLY BY STAIRS. We would love nothing more than to be able to welcome every human into the theater and are working really hard to have an elevator built in the near future.***
