8:00 - Flesh For Fantasy

Fueled by sleaze and a thirst for revenge, the four-piece alternative new wave band FLESH FOR FANTASY has been devouring stages throughout Southern California since its creation in 2022. With influences from the Yeah Yeah Yeahs, Bloc Party, B-52’s, Hole, and Garbage, the band makes music that both fights injustice while celebrating the pleasures of life. As FLESH FOR FANTASY enters its next chapter, the band continues to build their reputation through chaotic, high-energy live performances while forging their own identity within Southern California's alternative music scene.  

 

8:45 - Madde:

Madde Gruber is an independent rock artist, songwriter, and producer whose

music blends raw vulnerability with explosive positive energy. Drawing from punk,

alternative rock, and garage rock influences, she writes fearless songs about resilience, the injustices in today’s world, heartbreak, and the complexities of being human. Every release and performance is a testament to her DIY spirit and unwavering commitment to honest storytelling.

 

9:30 - Mr. Dinkles

Mr. Dinkles craft music that acts as a lens on the world, their lyrical storytelling bringing the trials and tribulations of life into intimate and relatable focus, evoking nostalgia from an era when singers and their guitars truly screamed.

Mac turns her guitar up really loud. So loud that you’d think it was a drop D tuning, which adds sonic texture and grit, while the shift of pace mid-song lands as smoothly as a gear change on a Ferrari - each turn precise and intentional.

Mr. Dinkles consists of Mac Rettig, who shines brighter than the Northern Star on vocals and guitar, and Rocco Ramos, whose driving rhythms anchor everything.

 

10:15 - Golf Sucks:

LA-based and pitted against the industrial golf complex, Golf Sucks

(founded 2022) is a high-energy band inspired by garage rock, punk, new wave, indie, and surfrock. Think if Elliott Smith had Cage the Elephant for his band, but with Daniel Kessler writing the guitar parts. They just released their punk anthem, "The United States," and are getting ready for its two follow-up releases this fall.
