Pepi Ginsberg - (Set time: 11:30 PM)

Pepi Ginsberg had a good childhood, a bit wild, and slightly irregular. She went to a private school, a public school, and then college in Philadelphia, where she found warehouses to play in, parks to meet in, and many a neon color to be amazed by. During this time Pepi wrote and misplaced a novella entitled No Name Colorado, and wrote and recorded songs, which came to be her first album, Orange Juice Stephanie/Stephanie. Pepi recorded her sophomore album “Sometime Momma/Sometime Babe” in her apartment bathtub in Brooklyn, NY.

Exit Clov - (Set time: 10:30 PM)

Exit Clov is a band from Washington, D.C. We write songs inspired by the madness of our city. Tunes of resistance, ennui and societal idiocy -- music for 21st century kids. Our name, a tribute to Samuel's Beckett's "Endgame," is both a call to arms and a personal manifesto. We share a wide range of influences from Blondie to Bartok but most of all we love a good hook. Consider our choruses a respite from the soundbite society we live in. Someone once called us "kaleidoscopic pop noir," we think that sounds pretty cool.

The Armchairs - (Set time: 9:30 PM)

The Armchairs play music that makes you want to stand next to yourself and compliment your own shoes. This unlikely quartet of young professionals began with two pairs of college roommates named Andrew and Mike half-an-America apart. In Chicago, roommates Andy Molholt and Michael Chadwick gave birth to a songwriting duo that would rival Hall and Oates. Meanwhile in Philadelphia, Andrew Morris and Mike Harkness forged a rhythm section that would later rival the Hall and Oates’ backing band. Three years later, the Armchairs arose, winged and mature from its weird, gooey bag-type container. The Band did a short DIY tour of the east coast, a five-song demo, and awaits the completion of their first full-length record, “Science & Advice."
