Keep Your Secrets

Keep Your Secrets is a high-energy pop punk powerhouse from Washington, DC. Initially a duo making covers on YouTube during quarantine, Keep Your Secrets evolved into a full band making original music in the summer of 2021, and started building a name for themselves in the DC area alternative music scene. They call their sound "Cold Brew Core," for the monster-drinking warped tour kids who have grown into highly caffeinated adults. Despite their catchy hooks and major-key pop punk sound, Keep Your Secrets’ new EP it's all good explores weighty topics like heartbreak, betrayal, mental illness, structural racism, and climate grief. Fronted by a Black woman and composed of all POC members, this up-and-coming band aspires to shatter glass ceilings and share their innovative sound worldwide.

Arms Like Roses

Formed on a whim in late 2019, Arms Like Roses have since become one of the few bands in the current scene that has plenty to offer for both older and younger fans of emo, indie rock, and post-hardcore. Consisting of Estelle Angel (vocals), Thomas Shreve (drums), Tom Fisher (bass), Xela Stockmal and Adam Padilla (guitars), ALR’s scrappy early EPs and dedication to frequent and intense live shows across the East Coast and Midwest earned them attention from national publications including The Alternative and No Echo.

Their debut LP “Blooming” in July 2022, the group have developed a sound all their own that often fluctuates violently between the beautiful and the ugly; a theme that remains constant across all aspects of their presentation.
