Morning Fuzz - (Set time: 11:00 PM)

Morning Fuzz is a New York native rock and roll band that offers a driving, catchy, dance-invoking sound that its members have developed as seasoned recording and performance artists. This melodic rock outfit consists of lead vocalist and guitarist, Frank Fussa, bassist Chris Johanidesz, and drummer, Jesse Steffan. The band exhibits a fresh take on the songwriting Fussa has developed as the front man of his previous musical endeavors, calling attention to his Brian Wilsonesque style of song crafting. Their high energetic live shows, showcase Fussa’s incredible vocal range and orchestral guitar playing, Johanidesz’s rock-solid bass lines, and Steffan’s versatile drumming capabilities.
Zac Clark & Young Volcanos - (Set time: 10:00 PM)

Zac Clark is on the fence. On one side lies Katy Perry wearing only a synthesizer. On the other, Fleetwood Mac crushes Narragansett tall boys with Dan Fogelberg and Richard Marx. Tough choice, but Clark walks the line like a born politician: every time an infectious melody creeps by, you realize it contains a clever, concise and insightful lyric; simple progressions showcase unique instrumentation and formidable piano chops. Though often described as “power pop” or “piano music for adolescent girls,” neither captures the breadth of influences on the upcoming Young Volcanoes, a lively and diverse record four years, seven states and hundreds of thousands of miles in the making.
Wild Adriatic - (Set time: 9:00 PM)

Wild Adriatic is a four piece band comprised of some of the Upstate New York area’s finest talent. A rock band with definitive pop and soul leanings, the four members have been gigging together in various bands since their early teens. With their combined experience touring and recording throughout the world for 10+ years each, the group has made quite a name for themselves throughout the East Coast and beyond. What was once a folky acoustic solo project has turned into a full fledged, impressively tight force to be reckoned with. Now, with a new record [“The Lion” EP] about to be officially released, the band stands poised to refocus their attentions on touring and promoting throughout the United States and beyond.
