The Jins
While building off the‘90s-crushed guitar rock of The Jin’s Death Wish EP (2019), with a bit more room to breathe on the upcoming, 10-song It’s a Life—recorded in Vancouver with producer Dave Genn (54-40)—the trio also detour through cello-emboldened fields of Americana (“Clementine”),gloom-laden proto-psych(“Jin Sabbath”)and life-contemplating alt-ballads(“Crossroads”).With a new album now on the horizon, The Jins are planning to tour forthefirst time since Death Wish’s “She Said” unexpectedly took off on TikTok and brought the band to an even bigger streaming audience (the song is 7.5 million and counting on Spotify).The Jins are Ben Larsen (vocals, guitar), Hudson Partridge (bass) and Jamie Warnock (drums, vocals).

Crooked Spies
Fronted by brothers Dylan and Steven Evanik there is a certain allure to the sibling’s enthralling demeanor. Encompassing a youthful and unabashed confidence, the group has been previously described by Mike Bell (theYYSCENE) as “a gnarly, almost belligerently cool slab of stoner rock, muscled-up pop-punk and ’90s mostly metal…”

Kue Varo & the Only Hopes
Gothic folk group Kue Varo & the Only Hopes channels a kaleidoscope of dream-pop and murder ballad influences for high-drama songs that sound frozen in time. The group would sound right at home on The Roadhouse stage in Twin Peaks, given Varo’s emotive voice and accompaniment that runs from erie to airy at a whim.
