Parachute Club is an emerging indie/alternative rock band based in New England, operating primarily out of the Massachusetts/New Hampshire scene. The group has been steadily building a following through self-released music and regional live shows, blending melodic indie rock with gritty, DIY energy.

Their sound leans into guitar-driven textures and punchy rhythms, with recent releases—including singles like “Barnaclehead” and their album Inside Looking Out—showcasing a mix of raw garage influence and more polished indie sensibilities.

Black Hatch is a Manchester, New Hampshire–based garage/stoner punk band known for their high-speed, fuzz-drenched sound and relentless DIY ethos. Emerging from the New England underground scene, the group has built a reputation for loud, chaotic live shows and tightly packed, riff-heavy songs that blend garage rock grit with punk urgency.

The band gained wider attention with their 2021 release One More Bite, a rapid-fire, 11-track record that leans into “shouty” vocals, buzzing guitars, and sludgy low-end breakdowns. The album’s themes pull from everyday life and oddball interests—touching on overindulgence, work grind frustrations, video games, and offbeat storytelling—delivered with a mix of humor and abrasion.

Lacquerhead is a New England–based rock trio operating out of the Massachusetts/New Hampshire scene, known for their noisy, dystopian-leaning blend of metal and alternative rock. The band—featuring guitarist Drew Sumner, bassist Andrew Bennett, and drummer Alex Vance—has built a presence through regional shows and a raw, high-volume live approach.

Describing their sound as “noisey metal/rock,” Lacquerhead leans into heavy guitar textures, aggressive rhythms, and a darker, more atmospheric tone, with recent material framed as “dystopian rock.”

Qvickdraw is a New Hampshire Seacoast indie rock band blending power-pop hooks with alt-country twang and fuzzy, guitar-driven energy. Emerging from the local DIY scene, the group has built momentum through a steady run of self-released EPs—including QVICKDRAW I (2023) and follow-ups in 2023–2024—recorded in Rochester, NH.

Often described as local indie rock from the NH Seacoast, their sound pulls from pop, emo, and roots influences while maintaining a loose, irreverent edge, sometimes dubbed “horse-rock” by the band themselves.
