babybaby_explores (the Reasons Why that Gum is Still on the Sidewalk), is a pseudo concept, garage-pop, art-rock project made of three fweaky BFFS from the ghost town clam chowder suburbia Warwick, RI. Utilizing obsolete and low-tech gear, the band makes simple structured danceable songs that pay homage to: musique concrète, European underground synth punk of the late 70’s through the 80's, anthem music, dada, and the Providence DIY & noise scene.
Shaw and his band will be performing the entire album in a multidisciplinary, multimedia performance full of surprises and special moments that will be unlike any release show you’ve seen. Opening the night will be a brief set from acclaimed and beloved singer/songwriter Chrissy Stewart.
Brooklyn-based label Puremagnetik brings their musical artists and collaborators to Machines with Magnets for an evening of tape-infused lofi, lowercase sound design, and glacial ambient soundscapes. Join us December 7th for three sets of electronic, ambient, and experimental music from the helmsman of 12k records Taylor Deupree, the tape music master BlankFor.ms and Micah Frank & Chet Doxas performing the music of medieval mystic Hildegard von Bingen.
Surging with the strength of the early US thrash and crossover scene, HIGH COMMAND projects a scathing display of scorched earth vocals and spiraling divebomb riffs, soaked in napalm leads, and percussive devastation. With competitive and fantasy-inspired lyrical scourge, the band drives their message forth with might and conviction.

Over the last twenty years, Riverzedge Arts, its alumni, and its staff have been included in hundreds of exhibitions both nationally and internationally. Ranging in medium and message, the show celebrates the range and talent the Riverzedge Arts community shares and the many pathways we can open through art and design in the next twenty years!
As the lights of the city flicker on through a fading orange haze, the distinct sound of DREAM_MEGA’s debut EP “minus_world” echoes through a maze of damp alleyways. The project of Los Angeles-based artist/musician Joel Kyack, its sound merges analog synthesizers with wind-based instruments like the Thai khlui, harmonica and voice, all filtered through a sweat-soaked fever dream of real-time improvisation, manipulation and looping.
In Plain Sight is an exploration of camouflages as military fatigues and concealments. It is a probe into the familiar and obvious, where mundane shapes are both plastic and precious; where anachronistic amphoras bear relevant histories.
