WOBBLESAUCE
Based out of Boston, MA, Wobblesauce blasts through generic boundaries as a unique concoction of electronica, rock and action-packed dance music! As one writer at Performer Magazine described their performance at The Big Up in 2011: " If I were an epic video game character, this would be my soundtrack. Glitchy, melodic, dance-rock, and at times fun, dubbed down, and fat as hell!" Made up of Michael McCarthy (Keys, Synth, and production), Jake Boynton (Bass), and Cody Rountree (Drums and production), Wobblesauce is known for their complex, textured effects and driving rhythm section that can make any crowd freak out and get down! Combining killer keyboard riffs and sultry synthesizer soundscapes with live bass and drums, the band prides itself in offering a one-of-a-kind, energetic live concert experience that draws on influences from all corners of the electronic music scene
Recently, this power-trio has been gaining steam with the release of their first studio recordings on LostInSound.org a 3-track EP entitled "Galactic Cannibalism".
In their hometown of Boston, MA, they have performed extensively at such venues as The Brighton Music Hall, The Middle East, and The Wonder Bar. In addition, Wobblesauce has also performed up and down the east coast at such reputable venues as Port City Music Hall (ME), Club Metronome (VT), Pearl Street (MA), Brooklyn Bowl (NYC), The Blockley (PA), 8×10 (MD), and The Camel (VA).
They are also no strangers to the more underground warehouse parties raging late into the night at places like Brooklyn's infamous House of Yes (where they had the amazing opportunity to jam out in front of a live audience with legendary drummer Billy Martin of Medeski, Martin, and Wood and keyboardist Marco Benevento!).
At other memorable events, Wobblesauce has also shared the stage with Skrillex, EOTO, Beats Antique, Dillon Francis, Papadosio, Ott, Phutureprimitive, DJ Logic, Brother's Past, among others!
THE SHACK BAND
What originally started as an organic, impromptu and free-flowing collection of musicians casually performing in the renovated remains of a dilapidated "shack" in Blacksburg, VA has morphed into what is now The Shack Band. Since 2010, things have changed. The band relocated from Blacksburg to Richmond, VA. A true lineup was established, with four members signing on. The songwriting abilities and sensibilities matured and improved. At the start of 2013, the quartet became a quintet with the addition of a horn player adding more complex arrangements and texture to the band's already well-established sound. But, the one thing that never wavered was The Shack Band's intent to wow new crowds with their off-the-cuff, high-energy live shows melding funky rock 'n' roll and soaring harmonies with a strong emphasis on song-writing.
In 2012 & 2013, The Shack Band played 250 + shows up and down the East Coast and as far west as Chicago, while performing alongside a number of national touring acts, including: moe., Moon Taxi, The Machine, Perpetual Groove, The Pimps of Joytime, The Heavy Pets, Assembly of Dust, Everyone Orchestra and Dangermuffin among others. Thanks to their raw, infectious live shows and incessant touring, The Shack Band have seen, felt, and heard the effects of their budding reputation and burgeoning fan base. In February of 2012, they released their first EP, Born & Raised, to a sold-out crowd in their hometown of Richmond, VA. For 2014, the goals are simple yet ambitious: hit the rarified level of 200+ live shows, release their first full-length album, and continue to hone their craft while writing and learning new material.
