“Mamalarky’s tenderly tangled indie rock has the internal logic of ridiculous jokes shared between band members after spending weeks on the road together. In 2020, the young Atlanta-based quartet had more than enough time in each other’s company to develop an idiosyncratic musical language. The sum of friendships and collaborations dating back to their teenage years, the band’s debut album (Fire Talk 2020) melds flashy instrumental moves with head-sticking hooks and lovesick lyrics welcoming anyone into their private world. While Mamalarky are ostensibly an indie-pop group, they stand out from the laid-back melancholy moods of contemporaries with complex instrumental interplay that inspires lean-forward listening.” – Jesse Locke for Pitchfork

Neptune’s Core is an alternative indie rock band from Chicago composed of two sets of sisters. 
They’ve performed at venues across Chicago including Schubas, City Winery, Empty Bottle, and Hideout as well as gigs in neighboring cities such as Milwakee and Madison. 

They released their debut album “Can’t Have It All” in 2020, their second full-length album “Evolving” in Fall 2021, and are currently recording for their third album. Their sound has been compared to everyone from Snail Mail and Soccer Mommy to Mazzy Star and Fiona Apple but is an exciting mix all their own.
