ERICK STANG PROJECT
ERIKA LAUREN
I grew up on a farm outside St. Louisville, Ohio. At 22, I rode out with a beat up van and $200, bound for Chicago. I met Kilian Sweeney there. In the winter of 2009, we formed 3 Tons with Dan Smykowski and Ivan Stankowicz. We built a muscled sound with country roots and the hard drive of the city.
There is no irony here. Just, straight ahead songs from a transplanted country boy.

ERIN EDMISTER AND THREE TONS
Erin Edmister has been hollering lyrics and strumming his acoustic guitar through the American Songbook and his striking original songs since 2014 at Bernice’s Tavern, in Bridgeport.
It was at this highly esteemed dive bar that Edmister, and long time guitarist/collaborator, Kilian Sweeney, first encountered Joey Werner’s pounding drums and Brian Tredup’s sultry bass. Soon, the four fused their original sounds together to create a rocking country ruckus: Erin Edmister and Three Tons.
With this new line-up and a fresh record out in January 2018, this group will surely charm you with vibrant harmonies, lively tunes, and a hell of a good time!

EMPIRES
“A big, multifaceted, tower-of-power sound” and “inspired by the independent spirit of 90s grunge, Empires’ music takes the urgency and emotion of that era and reboots it for a new generation.” – Rolling Stone
[Empires has] set about doing this right. It’s a sentiment reinforced by these sterling alt-pop tracks boasting delicious symmetry of texture and tension. The 20 minutes Empires deliver on BANG makes a strong case that given the current music landscape, bands would be best off releasing EPs of their best songs while the material’s still fresh… – Alternative Press
“Layer U2’s early anthemics and The National’s moody swing, ladle on copious amounts of Black Rebel Motorcycle Club’s fuzz buzz and add dashes of Catherine Wheel and Modest Mouse. Cook under stage lights until they and you are completely done.” – CityBeat
“All ethereal and doomy like the Black Rebel Motorcycle Club or the Black Angels, but with a little bit of My Chemical Romance snarl thrown in for good measure” – MTV
“Empires create “explosive Gaslight Anthem-grade stadium rockers.” – AOL Spinner

EARTH CRISIS
Earth Crisis is an American hardcore punk band from Syracuse, New York, active from 1989 until 2001, reuniting in 2007. Earth Crisis’ chugging riffs and barked declarations served as the mouthpiece for the global vegan straight-edge movement throughout the ’90s, detailing the ideas of animal and human liberation, environmentalism, drug-free living, and personal empowerment through hardcore song.
EARTHEN GRAVE
Formed in 2008, Earthen Grave is a six-piece Chicago metal band that marries the sounds of metal past and future with a sweaty, pummeling live show. Bassist Ron Holzner served a 15-year sentence with Chicago doom legends Trouble and Rachel Barton Pine brings her frightening classical chops to a relatively new instrument, the Viper. Finding groups like Black Sabbath, Judas Priest, Saint Vitus, Trouble, Pentagram, Candlemass and Slayer to be common influences, the band wrote and played shows around Chicago for the first half of 2009, culminating in the release of the “Dismal Times” EP in June. Featuring three original songs that meld classic, crunchy doom and NWOBHM vibes with a solid dose of thrashy bludgeoning alongside covers of two choice doom classics by Pentagram and Witchfinder General, the EP was hailed by critics as “astounding, ” and “pure, head-banging bliss” (MaximumMetal.com).
