Babehoven is a band fronted by singer-songwriter Maya Bon and collaborator Ryan Albert in Hudson, NY. Their new album ‘Water’s Here In You’ is available everywhere on April 26 via Double Double Whammy.

Written and recorded at the duo’s home studio throughout the winter of 2022–2023, ‘Water’s Here In You’ comes close on the heels of Babehoven’s debut album Light Moving Time, which followed an impressively prolific canon of shorter releases dating back to 2017, when Bon founded the project in college. Their latest album continues the thread of the band’s sonic DNA—blending hyper-melodic indie and folk rock with shades of shoegaze and the occasional nod toward country. Across twelve varied and meticulous tracks, Babehoven offers their take on finding connection, groundedness, and growth in what we all carry within us.

Grocer is a band from Philadelphia. Lead by three distinct vocalists, each with a unique voice both on and off their respective instruments, they flicker between moments of brash chromaticism, saccharine pop sensibility, and rhythmic acrobatics. Their compositions are both meticulous and volatile, while their live performances are lauded for explosive chemistry with cheeky curiosity.

Aunt Katrina

Aunt Katrina began as the solo project of feeble little horse member Ryan Walchonski. The seven tracks blend noisy guitars, punchy synth lines, distorted samples and breakbeat inspired drums (performed by Ray Brown) that together create a unique style of electronic pop.

Sitting atop the tower of sounds are Ryan’s soft and drowning vocals. Gentle and melancholy, the vocals explore themes of listlessness and aging.

After finishing up a handful of dancy, fuzzy and chaotic pop songs, Ryan enlisted the help of friends Ray Brown (Snail Mail), Eric Zidar (Tosser), Emma Banks, Connor Peters and Laney Ackley to flesh out the songs in a live setting.
