Elevator Fight met in Philadelphia, PA during the late months of 2008. After realizing that they all attended the same Deerhoof/The Roots show weeks before, the group bonded over a love of Tenacious D, Jameson’s Irish Whiskey, and 30 year old Playboy back-issues. Their name comes from a ritualized sparring match that the band members take part in to regain their sanity/sobriety after hours of furious band practices. In 2009, the band trekked all around this great nation to play shows with TV on the Radio, Public Enemy, The Roots, Citizen Cope and (most notably) Jeremih, the man responsible for last year’s smash single “Birthday Sex.” In the new year, they are taking time out of their busy schedules to write new music, play shows, and melt faces worldwide.

The Click Clack Boom is a gang of Appalachian outcasts, foaming at the mouth, from the Middle of Nowhere, Pennsylvania.
In a place where cell phones, and running water are optional, you will find the birthplace of The Click Clack Boom. Despite their humble beginnings, this refreshing sextuplet of small town boys have become a fixture of Manhattan's Lower East Side and the Williamsburg music scene, while packing venues throughout the Northeast.

The Click Clack Boom delivers pocket tight performances, with lush harmonies, blended into an eclectic alternative rock sound that has been described as a mix of The Smashing Pumpkins, The Kings of Leon, and The Beach Boys.

With music in the air and the wind on their backs, the road has become their home and The Click Clack Boom continues to see their movement grow with each click of the odometer.

In a search to bring back the essence of true Atlanta musicianship, Dreamer, The Love Crusader, Tuki and Stago Lee, collectively known as Hollyweerd lead you into a land where rejects and weirdos reign supreme. Joining the new hip-hop movement of internet phenomenons, Hollyweerd has garnered much attention from their ability to create innovative tunes for their eclectic fans online. Brought together by what some might consider divine intervention, these four individuals have a niche for creative lyrics and music that defies the norms of hip-hop. Through songs such as “Weerdo” and “Go hard or Go Home”, Hollyweerd grants listeners a sample of the limitless state of mind they adhere to when it comes to not only the music scene, but life as well.

Influenced by such genres as jazz,techno, post-rap and alternative, the individualistic creativity that exists within Hollyweerd is undeniable. Self described as new wave, rap, ghetto tech music, their ground-breaking sound resides in unmarked musical territory sure to influence the music community and the world. Meeting in Atlanta, Hollyweerd was formed in mid-November 2007. Creating not only a group, but a brotherhood, Dreamer brings an unorthodox style while Tuki brings wordplay, The Love Crusader brings passion and Stago Lee brings southern sophistication, which culminates into a fresh breath of music with good vibes and funky melodies. Hollyweerd is creating their own rules in our land and a land where the rain is purple and the flowers are dead. Bringing about change transformation and a new breed of music to the south and around the world!
