Zeta June
Zeta June was formed in the fall of 2011 in Iowa City, Iowa with four members that brought their own musical influences to help shape the unique sound Zeta June brings. Those members are: Ian Crawford (guitar,vocals), Porter Hand (vocals, guitar, synthesizers), Mitch Hruby (bass, vocals), and Cody Kuhens (drums, percussion, vocals).
Together they play original music that covers a wide spectrum of genres, that creates a unique blend of psychedelic dance rock. Their first album, self-titled Zeta June, was released in September 2013 and embodies the various styles of music Zeta June plays. They have played in many festivals and cities, most notably the last three years at Summercamp Music Festival in Chillicothe, Illinois. In August of 2014 the band relocated to Denver, Colorado to bring their sound and style to the thriving music scene of Denver, as well as continuing to grow and develop their own music.

Terminal Degree
Terminal Degree is the brainchild of drummer/composer Mike Barnett. The band’s debut album, The Middle of Nowhen, represents a unique conception of progressive metal/jazz/classical fusion. The ensemble itself shatters the metal archetype and thecompositions display a musical depth that is rare by any rock/metal standard. The band is
comprised of musicians with highly diverse backgrounds and consummate musical skill, and the pristine production fully captures the magnitude of each performance. Consisting of nine purely instrumental tracks, The Middle of Nowhen is faithful to the listener who is committed to the art of listening and who believes that music is more than just sonic wallpaper. Timeless, intelligent and frighteningly original, this is the stuff that cult classics are made of.
