May 2023 Performers

Mellish

Mellish is an indie rock band celebrated for their emotive soundscapes and poignant storytelling. Emerging from LI/NYC, the band blends heartfelt lyrics with atmospheric melodies, creating a distinctive style that bridges introspection and raw energy. Known for their captivating live performances, Mellish has built a loyal following through their ability to connect deeply with audiences. Their most recent album, Until the Day, solidified their place in the local indie music scene as artists who craft music that lingers long after the last note. Mellish represents the essence of modern indie rock: authentic, evocative, and timeless.

Annalyse & Ryan

Annalyse & Ryan are a NY-based Americana duo. Their sound and songs take listeners on a soulful, rootsy journey, “resounding from the hollers with a haunting beauty” (Jeff Biggers, Huffington Post). The sweetness and severity in their music echos a cross between The Civil Wars and Tedeschi Trucks Band. Annalyse & Ryan’s strong harmonies melt together seamlessly, with an undeniable edge: a symbiotic clash reminiscent of their differing senses of place, yet their ironically parallel styles of seeing the world. Their music has been featured on CBS, BBC, and in multiple documentaries. The duo is touring this spring in support of their new EP Trilogy. The album features a phenomenal group of musicians brought together for this 3-song project.
