Nap Eyes makes crooked, literate guitar pop refracted through the gray Nova Scotian rain. Their songs are equal parts shambling and sophisticated, with one eye on the dirt and one trained on the starry firmament, inhabiting a skewed world where odes to NASA, brain protein aggregation, and the Earth’s magnetic field coexist easily with lyrics about insomnia, self-reproach, and drinking too much. In the world of Nap Eyes, workaday details punctuate (and puncture) cosmic concerns, as enigmatic songwriter, singer, and rhythm guitarist Nigel Chapman wrestles with air and angels, struggling (and often failing) to reconcile the Romantic rifts, both real and imagined, that define our lives: between chaos and order; solipsism and fellowship; the anxiety of social (dis)orders both big and small; and the various intersections and oppositions of religion, art, and science.

If a seagull eating a shingle and your local bar star had a baby, it would probably listen to Dump Babes. Formed in 2019 on the foundations of garbage, glitter, and friendship, this group delivers irresistibly danceable and surprisingly heavy psych-pop tunes. The intensely charismatic Aurora Wolfe and her well-rehearsed dirtbag pals, serve sex appeal for the entire family.
