Couch

Couch

Couch is one of the most exciting new voices in pop, soul, and R&B — a seven-piece band blending lush arrangements, expressive horns, bright synths, and soaring vocals into a sound that feels both comfortingly familiar and entirely their own. What began as a long-distance creative experiment between college friends has transformed into a national force: breakout tours across the U.S. and Europe, festival spots at Boston Calling and Levitate, sold-out UK shows, and opening slots for Lake Street Dive, Cory Wong, St. Paul & The Broken Bones, and more.

With their debut full-length album Big Talk, Couch steps confidently into a new chapter — bold, cinematic, and emotionally unfiltered. Critics have praised the record’s “cashmere-soft blend of pop, soul, and R&B” (The Boston Globe) and its “warm, explosive melodies… expressive horns, bright synths… and commanding vocals” (WBUR/NPR). On stage, the band’s chemistry is unmistakable: equal parts joy, precision, and full-body groove.

Thumber

Hailing from San Rafael, California, Thumber is a duo comprised of lifelong friends Eli Torgersen and Virgil Thunes. Thumber’s sound is a unique blend of heartfelt emotion and infectious grooves, merging raw, personal lyrics with beats that make you want to move. Thumber’s debut EP, which is set to release this fall, is an encapsulation of their self-proclaimed “Indie Rock, Funk Pop Stew” that they’ve spent the past five years perfecting.
