𖤓 MATT JOYCE
-singer-songwriter, Matt Joyce, (formerly of heaps of bands, most notably, one of WIsconsin’s best: The Midwest Beat (“mad /mke band that had a long and fruitful run of jangly, psych-blasted rock, much of it on the strength of Joyce’s songwriting”), is an indomitable Madison staple, who’s voice and songwriting has been melting hearts in madison for decades.


𖤓 FIONA MOONCHILD (sea)
(dream pop; bedroom pop; new wave)
“Born in the PNW, Fiona Moonchild has been touring and playing shows relentlessly in collaborative projects such as Scott Yoder ( ), Boyfriends and Doglob, but has only recently come out on her own to profuse her first darkly glamorous, [romantically saturated] debut solo record.”
“The music is a melancholy fever dream, with wistful melodies and Fiona’s distant-sounding voice wreathed in guitar and synth. [Her new album, ] a product of both Covid confinement and seagoing freedom, Sweets of Reason ( ) hums with introspection and romance, and rides along on a snappy, steadying backbeat.” - honeymagazine.com
BACKING BAND FT SCOTT YODER!
FFO Stereolab; Bowie


𖤓 HEATHER THE JERK
-pop-punk
“Heather The Jerk occupies the space where punk rock and classic 1960s girl groups overlap. Songs that will make you giddy to be alive and then the next song will break your heart. Every song will get stuck in your head at some point though.
An absolute punk rock gem that will have you feeling all the feels!”
“Sawyer is one more part of what’s keeping Madison, Wisconsin as one of the more pivotal punk scenes around.” -Tim Janchar (maximumrocknroll)

- country-folk; twang; singer-songwriter
Full band iteration of Madison singer-songwriter Tyler Fassnacht. Playing new songs! Full of rockin twang and sweet heartache.


❁ THE PART TIMERS (chi)
- country tinged pop-altrock
Led by Cole Johnson, and featuring members of Madison favs Tommy Goodroad and the Highway Birds, The Part Timers exist in that thoughtful slacker, country-tinged yet characteristically midwestern, pop rock universe that is impossible not to fall head over heels for. For fans of Silver Jews, Bonny Doon, Pavement b-sides and ordering too many beers.

With literary lyrics and saccharine hooks, ATW stand tall as Madison’s premiere titans of twee. 5 years in and at the top of their game!!
