Easter Island here at The Drunken Unicorn on Saturday, May 11th, 2013.
Formed by brothers Ethan and Asher Payne in 2010, Easter Island creates panoramic, post-rock inspired dream pop. Behind the wall of towering drums, glassy guitars, and the forceful tide of synthesizers, hide soft-spoken melodies, tender harmonies, and understated musings on the subtle, yet visceral moments in life.
Sara Crawford is a singer/songwriter from Atlanta, Georgia. Influenced by artists such as Ani DiFranco, Bob Dylan, and Melissa Etheridge, she combines poetic lyrics, passionate vocals, and simple but skilled acoustic guitar music to create a soulful, raw sound.
Sara is also celebrating her BIRTHDAY with this performance!
Lowdive will be performing before The Hermits Of Suburbia.

Calm White Noise here at The Drunken Unicorn on Thursday, April 25th, 2013.

That band is New Orleans, The Winter Sounds. Fun. Energetic. Anthemic. All words to describe The Winter Sounds and their catchy-as-hell sonic gems.

Jaggery will be performing before The Ghosts Project.
“Jaggery audiences go silent and still like people appreciating raw, scary, beautiful wildlife.” That observation was made by web magazine, Cambridge Day, in reaction to the Boston-based five-piece, who work the dark edge of a genre-defying musical style (darkwave jazz? ethereal avant-rock? chamber art-pop?)
