Music Lineup
Doom Flamingo
“We just want to make people dance. It’s a ritual.”
Doom Flamingo (L to R)
Thomas Kenney, Ross Bogan, Kanika Moore, Mike Quinn, Ryan Stasik, Stuart White
Doom Flamingo is a six-headed synthwave beast with a Jekyll and Hyde element to the songwriting. Top Gun guitar riffs and Miami Beach poolside lounge-vibes, are all at once contrasted with eerie darksynth soundscapes reminiscent of old John Carpenter films.
Doom Flamingo came together organically through friendships and past collaborations in their hometown of Charleston, South Carolina. Dynamic vocalist, Kanika Moore, sets the project into hyperdrive alongside bassist Ryan Stasik, of the prolific rock band Umphrey’s McGee. The sextet features a cast of powerhouse musicians including keyboardist Ross Bogan, Thomas Kenney on guitar, Mike Quinn on sax and drummer Stuart White.
Sexbruise?
Sexbruise? is a satirical pop band from Charleston, SC that combines elements of improvisation, electronic music, poppy hooks, and audience participation to create an
unforgettable live experience. Despite their extreme wealth and lavish lifestyle, Sexbruise? grew up on a dirt road right down the street from Pappy’s Hardware Shop, and subsequently is very in tune with the struggles and plight of middle america.
Sexbruise? Has been featured at Rooster Walk Music and Arts Festival and will perform at FloydFest 2021 and other pending festies, assuming this damn virus doesn’t fuck us at the last second again.
Sexbruise?’s shows can be described as a giant party. The tunes are memorable, the stage presence exciting, and the antics unpredictable. And there are snacks. Thrown from the stage. The band has prepared pancakes and pizza on stage, brought out dancers in animal costumes, hired fake demonstrators to protest their shows, and many more other cool things.
The Dubplates
BUY OR STREAM NOW – BILLBOARD NO. 1 REGGAE ALBUM – BOX FULL OF STEEL – KING YELLOWMAN X JUNIOR REID X MIX MASTER MIKE X FUTURE FAMBO X ELEPHANT MAN & ZUMJAY
THE DUBPLATES NEW RECORD. THESE ARE MUST HAVE ITEMS.” -MIX MASTER MIKE
There’s a reason legends like Mix Master Mike of the Beastie Boys and Method Man of Wu-Tang Clan have been photographed wearing Dubplates gear.
It’s the same reason Papa Robbie was performing with King Yellowman in the 90s and was named by Shabba Ranks. It’s the same reason you could find Daddy Brady voicing tunes with Jigsy King in Jamaica in 2004. And it’s the same reason Big Hair and Daddy Brady opened for Damian Marley in 2005 on the Welcome to Jamrock tour. It’s because The Dubplates family is humble and legit.
Since youth their favorite tunes were roads to find artist’s influences. The Clash lead to Lee Perry the same way RUN DMC leads to King Yellowman.
That’s why this band was born from a Dancehall Reggae Soundsystem. What does that mean? It means they ain’t scared of a microphone. It means that every Dubplates show is a dance. Most importantly it means they present their songs the way they would present records on turntables. With the same reverence a priest holds the Bible.
They do it with a deep love and respect for the people and places that inspired each song. They bust out blues, afrobeat, hip hop, rocksteady, dub, dancehall and ska.
No matter style they touch, it is recorded and performed with relentless attention to the traditions and innovations of the originators.
