Daily Bread Bio:

Repping Atlanta proudly, Daily Bread -- the sonic perception of Rhett Whatley -- is always coming with fresh ideas to give soul-stirring sounds a trenchant edge. The Philos Records resident's penchant for experimenting with instruments and an intense affinity for crate-digging helps Daily Bread rise to new heights, bringing together nostalgically soulful melodies, gritty hip-hop hooks, and bass-driven flare into one cohesive sound. Boasting an accomplished goal of bringing old sounds to new ears, Daily Bread's trajectory has been divinely unpredictable. With merch selling out in mere minutes, vinyl being resold for hundreds of dollars, and a legion of supporters consistently waiting for Daily Bread's next move, Whatley's flame isn't going out just yet. In fact, the heat only continues to rise.

Geographer Bio

Formed in San Francisco, Geographer is the moniker for the now Los Angeles-based Mike Deni. Part social scientist, part troubadour, if Geographer is an expert at anything, it’s precisely chronicling life’s imperfections. He has headlined many national tours, played Outside Lands, Just Like Heaven, Firefly, Treefort, and other festivals, released four critically acclaimed albums, including 2023’s A Mirror Brightly, and has performed with such musical luminaries as The Flaming Lips, Young The Giant, Tycho, K.Flay, Ratatat, Betty Who, and Tokyo Police Club.

Deni is celebrating the 15 year anniversary of his Seminal EP Animal Shapes with a tour and a special vinyl reissue. He’ll be performing the EP in its entirety, as well as songs from his new album and his ever growing catalog of thoughtful and heartfelt music.

About “A Mirror Brightly,” Deni says, “I focused on my experience moving through the world: feeling like an outcast, being denied love in its many forms, and struggling to find meaning in an existence that looked increasingly like a void the more I peered into the glass,” Deni says. Although A Mirror Brightly (out February 23, 2024, Nettwerk Records) is indeed deeply personal, it’s not simply autobiographical like his previous releases. “This record takes that existential shock but explores it through humanity as a whole, rather than just me as an individual.”

Experience Rouge Room like never before as we dim the lights and transform the lounge into a late night house music oasis every Saturday from 10pm-Late － featuring a rotating selection of handpicked DJs with sounds from artists like Keinemusik, RÜFÜS DU SOL, HUGEL, PAWSA and more.

Tennis Bio

The duo met in the University of Colorado’s philosophy department in 2008, when Patrick Riley recognized Moore as the waitress from a diner he frequented. (This moment was later immortalized in their song Hotel Valet.)  After graduating, they spent eight months living aboard a small sailboat, voyaging along the eastern seaboard–a practice that would become integral to their creative process. Their debut album Cape Dory (2011, Fat Possum) documents that experience. Tennis booked their first tour through the help of a robust DIY scene. While on the road, their lead single "Marathon" went viral, gaining them sudden notoriety. Cape Dory debuted at #1 on Billboard's Heatseeker chart and transitioned Tennis from house shows to main stages in the course of a year.

Tennis recorded their sophomore effort Young & Old (2012) with Patrick Carney of the Black Keys, marking their first collaboration with an outside producer and their television debuts on The Tonight Show, The Late Show, and Late Night with Conan O'Brien.

In 2013, Tennis spent sixteen days recording with Richard Swift in his home studio in Cottage Grove, Oregon. Moore and Riley were heavily influenced by Swift's distinctive approach to engineering. This prompted the duo to build their own studio and take over production and engineering roles on future releases.

Moore and Riley solidified their creative autonomy by forming the label Mutually Detrimental in 2016. Yours Conditionally, their first self-release, became their most commercially successful album, charting on Billboard’s top 50 vinyl sales and proving their DIY roots as a cornerstone to their sound and narrative. 

Swimmer (2020, Mutually Detrimental) marked a sonic evolution. Moore and Riley expanded their palette with unique time signatures and arrangements, stepping fully into their roles as songwriters and producer-engineers. But with nearly every show sold out, Swimmer's momentum was cut short by the Covid-19 pandemic. The duo spent the time at home exploring their role as producers by making records for other artists. 

Tennis has continued to thrive by operating on the fringes of the music industry. They’ve survived the flash-in-the-pan fate of so many bands from the early ‘00’s blog-era. Their sixth album, Pollen, saw them grow into the biggest tour of their career, with sold out shows at historic venues like The Beacon Theatre and The Palladium.  

Face Down In The Garden is Tennis' most fully realized work. Crafted entirely by their own hands and guided by their fierce independence, it stands as testament to a band unwavering from their original vision. Tennis embarks on the first leg of their North American Tour in May.
