LINEUP
Premiered in 2012 by winter circle productions, the buku music + art project has established itself as the premier progressive music and arts festival in new orleans and the gulf coast region. For those tired of the mega-festival and wanting an intimate setting with close stage views and clear/loud audio, buku fills that void. The location’s post-industrial vibe fits perfectly with buku’s fusion of edm, hip-hop and various sub-genres of indie rock. Paying homage to the nola setting, buku features local food vendors, indigenous art exhibits and dozens of regional support acts playing stage changeover sets.

Canadian grown (legally), New York formed duo is one of the latest acts to release on the boutique label Scissor and Thread.

In the Valley Below exist at an intersection of traditional Americana folk and blues and postmodernly intellectual art pop. They don’t sound like they’re from Mars… but they certainly seem to be aggressively refusing to fit into any genre. And in terms of subject matter, they would seem to take cues from both Genet and The Bible.
The guy behind The Range is James Hinton, a 25-year-old producer from Providence, RI with a facility for melding frenzied footwork percussion and melodic R’n’B vocal cut-ups to generate rich, emotional bass music for the bedroom and the club.
