Default Modes - Jesse Clasen is a vocalist and multi-instrumentalist from Charlotte, North Carolina. His career in Charlotte began in 2006 as the singer of the post-rock band Hrvrd (2006-2014). He found international success with his electronic/alternative duo Foreign Air (2015-present), reaching streaming charts in the US and internationally with his first certified gold single “Free Animal.” His latest project Default Modes is a nod to the darker side of the 80’s utilizing drum machines, synthesizers and a more robust vocal delivery. His first release as Default Modes is a cover of “Jumping Out A Window” by Pop Mechanix, which Clasen says is “a song I’ve been fascinated with that inspired the writing process” since hearing it in the 80’s horror movie Strange Behavior.

Top Achiever - Nicholas Holman, has played in bands such as Landless, Pullover, Dreamboat, Coughing Dove, and most recently, Top Achiever. He’s been chipping away at this new sound for the past few years and Nicholas says of the result, "It's "pop" and it's other things. It's me making what I want to hear and not what I think other people want to hear”
