Originally formed in the '80s, the Swingin' Utters brought their own brand of aggressive music to the growing Bay Area punk scene. As well as being classed as a rock, street punk and even Oi band, reminiscent of British '70s bands, Swingin' Utters have increasingly shown themselves to be influenced by traditional Irish, American country, folk, and Reggae. Soon the Swingin' Utters established their position as the West Coast's most dependable purveyors of gimmick-free punk. The genre is all about nonconformity and youthful aggression and rebelling against all things corporate. Without straying from their proletariat roots and blue-collar attitude, the Utters managed to maintain a nearly impossible level of respect from a culture that generally despises any shifts toward mainstream popularity. Swingin' Utters seem ready to defy the usual aging process that forces most punk bands to become little more than musical points of reference. The original punk revivalists stand undeterred by odds that are surely stacked against them, at least in a commercial sense. Of course, MTV sex-appeal and success on the pop-charts have no correlation to punk rock triumph. No lucrative record deal or marketing tactic could prove victory for the Swingin' Utters. These details are trivial in comparison to what the band possesses: a loyal fan-base of over two decades and a permanent position in the history book of American punk.

Once formed by Steve E. Nix in 2007, The Cute Lepers made a beeline for the punk and power pop classics in the used record bin. The Cute Lepers create the crisp, catchy punk numbers that you would normally expect from ex-members of The Briefs and include more narrative lyrics, heavy use of female back up vocals, and pop embellishes that unabashedly display their harmonic vibe.

The Cute Lepers have played every club in Seattle, damn near every club on the West Coast, and circled the US repeatedly; cramming their 6 piece band into a tiny vehicle with nary room to sneeze or stretch without somebody losing an eye. They have crossed the mighty Atlantic several times to tour Europe and the UK either solo or on support tours with bands like The Buzzcocks. They are playing festivals such as Academy in the UK & The Rebellion Festival, as well as any combination of punk clubs, discos, basements, and scrappy (crappy?) squats.

The Cute Lepers' sophomore record, Smart Accessories, continues with more of the tuneful energy that earned their debut full length the attention of Joan Jett's Blackheart Records, Damaged Goods Records, and 1-2-3-4 Go! Records. The Cute Lepers' first album earned respectable slots on radio station charts on both US coasts as well as an Independent Music Award for best Punk Album in 2009. Their power pop/punk debut made an appearance on several DJ's top list of 2008, including Seattle's own KEXP.

Raging out of the crumbling cascade of human depravity of Los Angeles, LOST CABRAS stumbled upon the music scene in 2009. Drummer, Ricardo Carles, and guitarist, Patrick Goddard, merge punk angst with angular disharmonies and outside-the-box tune wrangling to present a wall of noise that can at one time be brutal, introspective and even "pretty".

Currently tying on the last christmas wrapping on their first release, an EP entitled Made in Cabrasfornia, the duo is looking to gig about the area, glad hand the hipsters and create an air of political confusion and crisis, allowing their enterprise to advantageously step in and offer a seemingly custom-tailored solution to the manufactured emergency at hand.

The band formed in 2004 when Max found out that his brother, Cole, and their friend, Joey, were forming a band called, “The Raining Souls”. They didn’t have a bass player, and Max was in his first months of guitar lessons, so he decided to learn the Bass. After two years the band changed the name from “The Raining Souls” to “The Clocks”, name that didn’t stick out for too long because they discovered that were a lot of bands with such name. Then Cole and Max remembered their cousin, Emily, who suffers from a disease called Cystic Fibrosis. And Emily’s Army is a family based group that works to find a cure for Cystic Fibrosis. Finally, they decided to call themselves Emily’s Army, ‘cuz it could raise awareness of Cystic Fibrosis. Later in 2008, Travis joined the band, forming what we know today, as, Emily’s Army. Emily’s Army current line-up is, Cole Becker (Vocals/Rhythm Guitar); Max Becker (Bass); Joey Armstrong a.k.a. Chakka (Drums) and Travis Neuman a.k.a. T Bag (Lead Guitar).
