Official Black Lips Afterparty w/ All Them Witches, Sol Cat & The Nude Party
All Them Witches
Unexplained phenomena of all kinds can be attributed to magic. Music is among those marvels. When a group of unrelated individuals of different backgrounds gets together and locks into a sonic unity, there must be some sort of mysticism at work. "We do exactly what comes naturally. We go in a room without any idea about what will happen, get in the groove, and it works. That's supernatural. You get us untainted on the records. We have such a short amount of time on this earth. Everybody should be doing what they love. If there's a message here, it's that".

Sol Cat
There is no such thing as a landlocked island, except the one where Sol Cat seems to live. It's like a place where the mind isn't fully aware of its surroundings, and confusion welcomes the creativity it inspires. Sol Cat's eponymous self-released debut album doesn't necessarily transport you to South Florida from Nashville, TN, but that is an appropriate enough concept. If Music City defines firm lines between genres, Sol Cat's album champions redistricting, creating challenging new sounds in this arena of the traditional.
Think of a midnight drive somewhere warm, certainly the top is down, and yes, a beauty is in the passenger seat. The six-piece band suggests you can take this foggy, dreamlike scenario with you wherever you go. However, Sol Cat finds its own contentment and happiness in the valleys of Middle TN, grateful for the opportunity to tap into the mystical and spiritual musical foundation on which the land is built. The Athens of the South has an appeal any artist can feel an enticing, drawing temptation.
Before relocating, Sol Cat's members spent their time across the country, Miami to Los Angeles, New York City to The Gulf of Mexico. Musical influences span just as wide, yet an eclectic and oceanic resonance remains prevalent in their sound. Smooth grooves along the lines of George McCrae mix with semi-psych synth layers, while the likes of The Talking Heads and Laid Back inspire bouncy bass and slick guitar riffs.
With such a range of cultural and artistic influence, the creative process is equally interesting. Vocalist and writer Brett Hammann steers the musical direction of the band while guitarist Johnny Fisher leads the group into new and uncharted territory. Drummer Ryan Usher provides the rhythmic backbone for bassist Aaron Martin, who also acts as Sol Cat's Art Director. Lead guitarist Jaan Cohan brings catchy licks and skills to melt any face, leaving keyboardist and studio engineer Jeremy Clark to play intuitively as the music essentially produces itself. The group is now prepared and eager for the road, with its groundwork set for the message to spread. The Sol Cat sound is not as unfamiliar as it is forgotten; and those feelings and emotions poured into music past are ready to gracefully wash over a new generation.

The Nude Party
Spawned from the dark basements of Boone, North Carolina, The Nude Party's origins are based less in music than an overall lust for sweaty, booze fueled nights of debauchery and dancing. The nude boys arrived to Boone with not much more than a few bad ideas and some second hand musical equipment that they hadn't yet learned how to use. Naturally, the boys began assembling songs in a nostalgic search for the true roots of the rock and the roll. After a series of wild naked happenings, the nude boys eventually became The Nude Party and their antics were taken from parties in the Appalachians to bars and venues throughout the southeast. While the boys have now acquired some turtle necks and denim shorts, their rock and roll attitudes are still very much exposed.
