Ethel Cain

Ethel Cain will present songs from her acclaimed discography which leads you into the detailed universe Hayden Silas Anhedönia created. The sound system will play "American Teenager" and "Strangers" and "Gibson Girl" and "Crush" and "Thoroughfare" which will create a musical experience that leads you into the imaginary world she has developed. Her 2025 album Willoughby Tucker, I'll Always Love You demonstrates her growth as a storyteller through her combination of banjo, piano and bass instruments which creates magnificent music. You'll recognize the artistry of the first openly transgender artist to land a US top ten album - Preacher's Daughter hit No. 10 on the Billboard 200. Cain composes most of her songs by herself while she incorporates religious elements and American traditions and traumatic experiences into her musical compositions. Her queer cult following and Southern Baptist roots create outstanding moving stories which she presents to her audience. The entertainment venue will send you out with shivers because you heard music which combined strong emotional impact with powerful musical strength.

9Million

You'll groove to the atmospheric sounds of 9Million, the Toronto shoegaze project led by multi-instrumentalist Matthew Tomasi. The audience will recognize their favorite fan songs through the performance of "Shiver" and "So Familiar" and "Never Knew" and "Honeysuckle" and "Shine On" which will flow through the audience. The 2025 self-titled album 9Million from the band establishes their position as leaders in the indie and shoegaze music genre. The band keeps its loyal fan base because they play live concerts after releasing their 2022 mixtape Between Us. The shows of Tomasi will deliver his unpredictable artistic approach which combines shoegaze elements with alternative rock sounds. The shoegaze guitarist responded to the request for volume adjustment by saying. The current reverb level reaches its maximum point because any further volume increase will create a gateway to another dimensional space. 9Million presents itself as a suitable song to start Ethel Cain's musical journey because it contains all the beautiful elements which match her atmospheric musical style.
