Flower Face is the moniker of Montreal’s Ruby McKinnon, a songwriter and visual artist whose catalogue traces her evolution from self-produced bedroom goth-folk to cinematic, genre-defying indie. Praised as one of today’s most vital emerging voices, she crafts music that transforms heartbreak and resilience into something timeless, intimate, and otherworldly.

Stay tuned to learn about our spotlight artists for DC and NYC closer to the festivals!

Heather Redman isn’t new to the southern Ohio music scene and has long been respected for her frequent role as a co-vocalist, co-front person, guitarist, and percussionist. In fact, you could say that over the years she’s developed one hell of a reputation. That reputation has at last manifested into a band Redman fronts with the support of some of the region’s heaviest hitters. Heather Redman & the Reputation's self-titled, analog-driven debut has been rattling speakers since its 2022 release. Now, they’re putting the finishing touches on a sophomore album—raw and affecting—due later this year.

Stay tuned for more with our spotlight artist!

FONTINE is Indigenous, q***r and a self-proclaimed “real goofy guy.” These things all inform her art. She is the life of the party, her magnanimous laugh and smile filling up any room. But there's also a lot of struggle behind all that. Navigating through relationships beginning and ending, identity exploration, self-doubt, activist frustration, people pleasing and friendship – all rooted in a real sense of place. This is what the debut album "Good Buddy" is all about.

Stay tuned for more with our spotlight artist!
