Griffin Benton


Griffin Benton is a singer, songwriter, and guitarist from Detroit, MI. Drawing inspiration from artists like Queens of the Stone Age, Billy Idol, and Tom Waits, he’s cultivated a unique sonic fingerprint that revolves around massive riffs and anthemic vocals.


Pond View


Pond View is 3 best friends since high school: Luke Kraszewski (Guitar, Vocals), Josh Sansone (Bass), and Matt Nagy (Drums). The trio formed in 2018 releasing some demo EP's and playing open mics. The 3 founding members often play live as a 3-piece, and more recently as a 4-piece with a live guitarist. (Corey Farnsworth: 2021), (Mike Scialla: 2022)


In more recent years Pond View has progressed to playing larger stages such as: Toad's Place and Cafe Nine, but more often gigs at DIY spots around the Northeast.


Additionally, the band has continued to improve on their studio sound. Early 2021 brought "Mouthbreather". Their first professionally mixed and mastered EP, and even more recently the band has released "My Gurl". An 8 track album released late 2021.

At the end of the day the band has one singular goal: to make you move to the sweet sounds of their rock and roll.


JVK


With the energy and chaos of old-school rock n’ roll and a modern touch of sympathy and empowerment, JVK commands the crowd as soon as they step on stage. Local to the Boston music scene, the newly formed band started out as the lead vocalist Jo Krieger’s solo project, backed up by Alix Breda’s groovy bass lines, Syd Lane and Atticus Crowley’s compelling guitar solos, and Troy Welling’s energetic drum fills. But soon, their undeniable chemistry took them to create JVK, in which in a little over a year of their existence, they’ve conquered every sweaty basement in the Northeast, fished a loyal audience who are now filling up bigger and bigger venues, including being part of the Louder than Life festival line up for 2023, playing with Green Day, Turnstile, Queens of the Stone Age, and more.
