SUMMARY:Fuzzy Prophet\, Brass in Pocket & Psychic Idols
DESCRIPTION:An evening of hooks\, harmonies\, noise and The Pretenders tributes\n\n\nBrass In Pocket is a Richmond VA band featuring the music of Chrissie Hynde and The Pretenders. \nFuzzy Prophet is a harmony-driven rock band from Richmond\, Virginia\, formed in 2022 by veterans of the local music scene. Dual vocal harmonies cut through fuzz guitars\, defining songs that blend psych-tinged power pop\, post-punk edge\, and ’60s garage. With three LPs—Viral Pop Implosions\, Evil Somewhere in the Woods\, and the acoustic-leaning Mirror Myths and Bad Dreams (2026)—plus a newly released garage rock EP\, Fuzzy Prophet continues to evolve while delivering high-energy\, melody-forward live shows. Their fourth album\, Never Be Your Prey\, arrives in late summer 2026. \nPsychic Idols are a Richmond\, VA garage‑psych trio that trades nostalgia for momentum—taut rhythms\, jagged guitars\, and songs that push forward with purpose. Enlightenment through amplification.

SUMMARY:Sneaky Miles w/ Nighthawk and Wild Hound
DESCRIPTION:indie and folk rock on a monday\n\n\nSneaky Miles \nan indie folk band from the seacoast of New Hampshire. What began as a trio forged through University of New Hampshire open mic nights has grown into a full-band powerhouse\, blending heartfelt storytelling\, driving folk-rock energy\, and rich Americana influences \n \nNight Hawk \ndefined by stark geometry and bold imagery\, underpinned by crackling warmth and simmering tension. Drawing on themes of urban isolation\, self-discovery amidst challenging transitions\, and the catalogue of 20th century painter Edward Hopper\, the band blends mellifluous violin and delicate finger-style guitar with the raw energy of barnstorming alternative rock\, creating a sonic palette that is as expansive as it is emotionally precise. \nWild Hound \nDeep creekin’ boogie band gettin’ down in Virginia. Debut record coming in fall 2026

SUMMARY:Gallery Electrophonique
DESCRIPTION:Electronic show featuring RVA debut for Mark Cetilia\, of Mem1 and Redux. With Stephen Vitiello & Chrystine Rayburn\, Gardener & Syncretist.\n\n\nCome out for an evening of electronic music that will feature both academic and club approaches to sound. This show features the Richmond debut for Mark Cetilia of Mem1\, an interdisciplinary artist whose practice exists at the nexus of analog and digital technologies. With performance systems utilizing custom hardware and software\, Mark’s work is an exercise in carefully controlled chaos. \nMem1 + Stephen Vitello – “Age of Insects”• https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vRAdXsrjJho \nStephen Vitiello – who collaborated with Mark on “Age of Insects” – will be performing accompanied by Chrystine Rayburn. Their duets explore textural atmospheric guitar and space\, while creating a resonance between electronic and acoustic instruments with Chrystine’s rich baritone clarinet work. \nGardener is the long-running synth-psych project from Dash Lewis. Using synthesizers\, samplers\, an array of effects pedals\, and his voice\, Lewis builds massive\, glacial walls of sound that take influence from The Beach Boys\, Harmonia\, Theo Parrish\, Cluster\, El-P\, and the Bomb Squad. \nSyncretist is a solo electronic project from Robert Salsbury\, co-curator of the Sunday Soundtracks concert series. Syncretist explores melody and texture using club idioms in a format that mixes song structure with a seamless dj style presentation\, coming from a strong 90s IDM sensibility. \n \nLinks \nMark Cetilia website• Soundcloud• Insta \nStephen Vitiello website• Bandcamp• Insta \nGardener Bandcamp• Insta \nSyncretist website • Bandcamp •Insta

SUMMARY:Aaron Irwin Jazz Trio
DESCRIPTION:Modern chamber jazz with Americana color and open improvisation\n\n\nThe Aaron Irwin Trio brings together saxophonist\, clarinetist\, and composer Aaron Irwin with guitarist Mike Baggetta and drummer Bill Campbell. The group’s sound prioritizes melody\, space\, and texture\, blending chamber-like intimacy with Americana rooted language and modern improvisation.

Their newest release\, Spark (Adhyâropa Records\, 2026)\, expands the trio’s palette with greater dynamic range\, blues and folk influenced melodic language\, and subtle sonic coloration. The trio has toured extensively throughout the United States\, including an elevencity tour in August 2025.
