The Specs

Straight outta Jersey, The Specs are a six-piece flamethrower of rock energy. With the urgency and attitude of punk, the melodic sensibilities of pop, and enough rock riffs to rock your face clean off, The Specs form a sound that represents what they love, and not the current trend of the week (fleeingthescene.com). The Specs also pride themselves on their must see live performances. From the moment The Specs take the stage, audiences are blown away by the high energy, fierce rock that comes forth from the group.

Flights

Hey everyone - it's Brian. I want to share our story with you. We were in a country home in the middle of Wisconsin's quiet, but ruthless winter. From the first song, our hearts lit up. It took cues from our old recordings, ones that we worked out most of the time over the internet, with an 18 hour drive (Eric, Boston - Me, Milwaukee) separating us at the time. At the same time, this new music was pulling us away from the foundation which we were comfortable with. We knew that a change had to happen. We were ready and willing.

Wussy

Wussy is a four-piece rock and roll band comprised of ex-Ass Ponys frontman Chuck Cleaver (guitar, vocals), Lisa Walker (guitar, vocals), Mark Messerly (bass, keyboards) and Joe Klug (drums). They formed in Cincinnati, Ohio in the early 2000's with original drummer Dawn Burman. Cleaver and Walker began playing together in 2001 as a result of Cleaver’s stage fright when asked to perform a brief run of solo shows. The duo’s first performance was largely unplanned and yet went without incident.. so they agreed to continue and expand.
