Devereux Scales: Devereux Scales features former members of SF Bay Area bands Fake French, Passing Lanes, Geisha Boys, and Los Angeles' George Glass. Their sound is replete with shadowy, reverb-drenched guitars, pulsating rhythms, and introspective lyrics. All echoing the spirit of the band's shoegaze, post-punk, and indie rock heredity.
Petrov, the Hero: Petrov, the Hero is a Los Angeles-based band led by two co-founding members who began their collaboration in the late 1990's. Tyler Poelle and Nicholas Ceglio were born and raised in Northern California. Tyler and Nicholas have consistently been writing, recording and performing together. In 2018 they self-produced their first official self-titled EP, and in 2023 they released new songs from their upcoming second EP "The Flowers Have Gone," which will be released in full in 2024. They are currently recording their first official full length LP, titled "Remy," due out sometime in 2024-2025.
