Flame Tides are a Queen City-based project by Hayley Moran and “Rocketman” McNeely. Rocketman riffs heavily on guitar, utilizing a talk box to create a unique sound in tandem with Moran breaking down each track on drums. The Flame Tides’s 2019 album, Thunder Love, is carried by the duo’s heavy melodic freewheeling through each track.

gogoPilot is an alt-rock outfit formed from the imagination of Jeffery Williams (vocals, guitar) with founding member Chris Ravenscroft (guitar), and backed by Tom Stanfel (drums), Matt Mangum (bass), and Reeves Combs (piano, harmonies). The band takes on influences from bands like Radiohead and Sonic Youth, balancing lyrical messaging with mellow instrumentals, often playing meditative rock melodies and occasionally cranking up the crashes on each instrument. gogoPilot’s Descend To Great (2022), examines the state of the world over candid lyrics and melancholic grooves.

Red Eye Gemini is a rock band from North Carolina consisting of Mark T Evans, Jim Goodman, Travis Weddington, and Dan Hitselberger.
