Kinda Nice Self-described 'eclectic indie' rock band Kinda Nice is a synthesis of it's members' diverse musical backgrounds. Drawing upon their folk, rock, operatic, symphonic, experimental, & choral influences, the band highlights each member, underscoring the collaborative ethos of Kinda Nice.

Song subjects traverse a wide array of topics: from silly to introspective to political and everything in between. Built upon the foundation of friendship, Kinda Nice loves to have fun, take up space, and make their presence known as a femme band in a predominantly male industry. This debut EP showcases their uncompromising spirit, penchant for the absurd, and undeniable joy of making music.

Chicken Ranch Road Show sprung from YouthRock’s “Rock Roulette” in 2023 and quickly became a beloved act across the triangle. Built on close friendship, the Raleigh-based five-piece offers up a mercurial blend of country, folk, and roots-rock. Lead vocalists Isabel Walsh and Patsy Sibley take turns delivering songs about everything from moonlit lakes to late-stage capitalism. It’s hopeful. It’s raw. It’s queer country music, and it’s not going anywhere. Look for Feral, their new EP, in early 2027.
