Swimmers (Formerly Emily's Army)
SWIMMERS draw on an eclectic mix of influences ranging from the Beach Boys to the Ramones to create their own brand of Rock and Roll, fondly known as “Beach Pop”. Formed in Oakland, California roughly in 2004 by then pint-sized brothers Max and Cole Becker with best friend Joey Armstrong, SWIMMERS first appeared on stage with best friend and bass player Seb Mueller in 2014. SWIMMERS would like you to know that they are really really (really) fun. They would also like you to know that if you don't believe them you should probably have a listen.
Having been in the music industry since they were 10 years old, the band has finally found a solidified direction, and with that has come a new name and a new brand. This is the new first impression of these fine young lads.

Dog Party
The Giles sisters have been making peppy pop-punk music together as Dog Party since they were little kids. Now their music has taken a nice leap from enthusiastic and fun to something a little louder, a little tighter, and a lot more exciting. The duo's third album, Lost Control, is their first for a bigger label, Asian Man, and it's produced by Sacramento punk mainstay Chris Woodhouse. He helps give the girls a bigger, more impressively noisy sound, but the real improvement comes from the sisters themselves. They've upped the songwriting stakes, added some muscle to their playing, and their voices sound more mature and powerful. This jump in quality makes Lost Control a short and snappy pop treat that will have fans of classic girl pop bands like Cub and Tiger Trap feeling nostalgic. The album will make fans of short snappy punk happy too. Along with the sugar-sweet melodies and teen-crush lyrics, there is plenty of snarl and spit involved. From the gnarly crunch of the guitars to the sneer Gwendolyn gives the songs about dumb boys and crappy romance to Lucy's steady backbeat, the duo generates plenty of punk energy. Dog Party may be music biz vets already, but this is their true coming-of-age moment and anyone interested in punky pop (or poppy punk if you prefer to look at it that way) should seek out Lost Control right away and stay tuned to see what the Giles sisters do in the future.
