They call the northeast home; playing Catskill Chill, Wormtown, Equifunk and at clubs like Sullivan Hall (NYC), Nectar's (VT), Stella Blues (CT), Triumph Brewery (PA), Bishop's Lounge (MA)... but have traveled to Virginia, North Carolina and Arkansas in the past.

Mother"s Wine-
Improvisational/Psychedelic
https://www.facebook.com/motherswine
Sometimes it takes time for the flavors to mix into something magical. This held true for Mother’s Wine, New Jersey's Best Kept Secret...Until Now!
In 2010, guitarist Joe Harris set out to find killer musicians to compliment his spacey funk-jam styling. Enter Mark Mammano, a solo looping artist within the Good Love Scene, now the lyrical backbone of this vineyard of sound. Along with bassist, Eric Marcazo, they found several different rotating band members, none of whom seemed to fit as perfectly as they needed. After a year-long hiatus, back to solo gigs and hunting for the right musicians, they found what they were looking for.
With the addition of Lou Imparato on the kit, followed by Jordan Simms (formerly of The Juggling Suns and Breadbox) on keys, and Cory Metrick on percussion, the band has become an unstoppable force! By 2012, Mother’s Wine had developed into a 6-man jam-unit. They’ve expanded their sound to include elements of funk and jazz and in their live shows and they aren’t afraid to do a blind tasting of improvisation. Don't let that fool you. This isn't your typical mindless-jamming; What separates this band from the rest of the pack is that Mother's Wine writes Great Songs.
The band has already made a name for itself. In such a short time, the band has performed on many notable stages, including Sullivan Hall and Mexicali Live. Mother's Wine has made an impression at all of the Music Festivals they have played so far. The band has shows, festivals, and collaborations coming up, so you Wino's better start drinking because 2013 and Mother's Wine are going to be the perfect pairing.
The Mushroom Cloud-
Psychedelic Funk Rock, Jazz, Progressive
https://www.facebook.com/themushroomcloud?fref=ts
The Mushroom Cloud is a three-piece funk rock band from New Haven, CT. Paul and Russ Harris had been playing together for 11 years before they decided they wanted to fully dedicate themselves to making music, so in late 2010 they formed The Mushroom Cloud, named after realizing the energetic and explosive direction their improvisational jams were taking. Bassist Charlie Mazur was then added to the line-up in early December 2011. Influenced by a huge spectrum of artists, The Mushroom Cloud blends funk, rock, jazz, disco and psychedelia into cleverly written passages of music, intermixed with powerful improvisational jams, enjoying anything that swings and grooves.
Speakerbot-
Disco, Nu-disco, house
https://www.facebook.com/speakerbot?fref=ts
Speakerbot is the robot-DJ alias of New Jersey's Aashish Bansal. Aash has been producing his own blend of deep house, disco, and funk for the last 6 years and can be found playing his eclectic mix for crowds in house parties, venues, and festivals all over the Northeast.

Narkatta-
Electrohouse/Techhouse/Trip Hop/Dub
https://www.facebook.com/djnarkatta?fref=ts
Narkatta, [betaparty] raised by wolves, picked up the guitar as an exit strategy from the wolf pack after he tried eating a human who was watching a video of Jimi Hendrix lighting his guitar on fire at Monterey Pop Fest in '67. Idolizing and thinking most humans acted as Jimi, he began emulating him by experimenting with amplification and distortion of sounds with an array of guitar pedals. Combining that analog sound with the digital sounds creating by his computer (and accepting that his paws were really hands) he began to be known for spinning high energy sets that were not limited to any genre, combining Electro House, Dub, Glitch Hop, and Trip Hop. He started playing local NYC parties and has been known for spinning 6+ hour sets. Now performing on both east and west coasts, sharing decks with such artists as Designer Drugs, Archnemisis, Jon "Barber" Gutwillig of Disco Biscuits, Govinda, as well as spinning for Burning Man Decom parties thrown by Disorient. Some venues he has performed at include Webster Hall, Sullivan Room, Public Assembly, The Delancey, The Electric Warehouse, and Club Love. There never is a party where Narkatta doesn’t whip the crowd into a rabid bass fueled frenzy, spinning for the love of what he does. Modern influences include Diplo, Chemical Brothers, Aphex Twin, Angger Dimas, Daft Punk, An-ten-nae, Pretty Lights, Flying Lotus, and Bassnectar, and classic interest include Jimi Hendrix, Robert Johnson, Miles Davis, and the Doors.
