Join Lampland at The Rabbit Box this June to celebrate their latest release, Get Serene.

The album’s title, Get Serene, is a command to yourself - to your own mind. It’s something you might speak into the mirror during a rough night. Something that slips farther away the more you reach for it. The songs on Lampland’s third LP live in the thrill of those in-between moments: suspended between boredom and possibility.

Lampland is the band and recording project of LA/New York based musician Tommy Bazarian. The band's third album, Get Serene, was produced and recorded by Katie Von Schleicher and Nate Mendelsohn (of the band Market), known for producing standout albums by Frankie Cosmos and Dougie Poole. Shortly after New Year’s 2024, the sessions began at Brooklyn’s Figure 8 Studios, with Margaux Bouchegnies (known for her solo project, Margaux) playing bass and joining Von Schleicher on backing vocals, and Sean Mullins (Sam Evian, Wilder Maker) on drums. The group drew on their shared influences: the grooves and experimental colors of Wilco's Yankee Hotel Foxtrot, the grunge-y abandon of Porches' early records, and the lofi shimmer of Chris Cohen's home recordings.

Seattle based indie/folk duo Swirlhood is the shared universe of songwriters Bethany Gray and Madeline Privott. From the Mexican border to the remote wilderness of Alaska, these two have logged countless hours exploring strange, beautiful, boring country. Much of the music they play and sing is marked by these images. Wander into a world that sees the common as commendable. Where ripples of milky guitar and pointed melodies spill from old wounds. Through their lyrical fortitude, textured voices and playful choreography, Maddie and Bethany provide a glimpse into the unknown world of Swirlhood.

Born and raised in the Pacific Northwest, Rachel creates music that is thoughtful and honest, with themes to mimic the natural moodiness of a Washington climate; radical hope, growth and recovery, sorrow, loneliness, and grief. Blending jazz, pop, R&B, and indie rock musings with a hint of yacht rock, Rachel’s music can change genre track to track while maintaining a smooth and groovy feel.
