29 Church Street · Catskill, NY

Great Lakes: Founded in Athens, Georgia, Great Lakes are a psychedelic-tinged indie pop/indie folk band led by songwriter Ben Crum. Their music walks a line between pastoral accents of Southern-bred indie folk and an artful, introspective mood reflecting the sometimes gloomy conceits of Crum's lyrics. In their early years, the group had ties to the Elephant 6 collective, an era best represented by their self-titled debut LP from 2000. A more ambitious and full-bodied sound emerged when Crum settled on the East Coast, with 2006's Diamond Times emblematic of their stylistic growth. Great Lakes are also more than capable of making powerful guitar-based rock, and 2022's Contenders saw them embracing this facet of their work. A period of soul-searching brought on by a health issue informed 2025's Don't Swim Too Close.

Giant Day: Giant Day are an E6 Post Punk Art Rock duo featuring Derek Almstead (The Olivia Tremor Control, Elf Power, The Glands, of Montreal) and Emily Growden (Faster Circuits, Marshmallow Coast).
