Night Hawk is a Maine-based outfit led by Colter Adams and Peyton Semjen, whose music often blurs the line between indie rock and performance art. Featuring a rotating cast of intrepid players from the New England underground, the project revolves around the question: what do Edward Hopper's paintings sound like?
Night Hawk's music is defined by stark geometry and bold imagery, underpinned by a deep sense of melancholia and repose. Drawing on Soir Bleu (1914), Automat (1927), Nighthawks (1942), Morning Sun (1952), and other Hopper works, the band has released six singles and an EP, performed at venues and galleries across the Northeast, and grown a thousands-strong audience by word-of-mouth and electric live performances.
Night Hawk has shared the stage with national touring artists including Y La Bamba, Sadurn, Lady Lamb, Dino Gala, and Dead Gowns, and sold out headline shows in New York City, Boston, and Portland, ME. Their debut EP, Everything Good Ends (produced by Dan Capaldi) is out on all streaming platforms and Bull Moose Records.

From South Jersey, Sleep House is an indie pop outfit inspired by artists from the 80's and onward. The group is made up by lead singer and guitarist Nicholas Gardyasz, lead guitarist Adam Mink, bassist Evan Marcinko, and drummer Nick Marcinko. Many have claimed to group them within the likes of older bands such as The Smiths, followed by more recent artists such as The Strokes, Hippo Campus, and The 1975.
Sleep House was formed during the band's freshman year of high school, when Adam Mink met Nicholas Marcinko during a study hall period. The pair realized each of their talent and dedication in music and began to work towards forming a band. Adam brought in long time friend and previous band member Nicholas Gardyasz to be the lead vocalist, and Nick brought in his brother Evan Marcinko to play the bass. The four of them hit it off immediately, and after many weeks without a name, "Sleep House" was finally chosen.
Sleep House continues to have a positive outlook and a great attitude on what the future may hold.
