May The Fourth Be With You Ep (S)IX: A Celebration Of The Music Of Sci-Fi



Not so far in the future, in a galaxy not so far away... A Celebration of the Music of Science Fiction was planned, featuring songs about aliens, robots, lasers, time travel, and everything in-between; soundtrack themes from movies; and campy pop tunes played by bands in movies. It was all fair game. Several brave, brave souls stepped up to join in on this venture...



Astronomers - Astronomers are a rock band from Charlottesville, Virginia. They write progressive pop songs with guitars and bass and drums and sweet melodies.



Stray Fossa - “Comprised of brothers and childhood friends Nick Evans, Will Evans, and Zach Blount, Stray Fossa seamlessly blends smooth singer/songwriter melodies with a driving, gritty, indie rock vibe to create a complex, exciting sound. As a result of growing up playing music together in Sewanee, Tennessee, and taking a few years hiatus, Stray Fossa is an amalgamation of self-discovery as people and musicians, a new project acting as a celebratory reunion of personalities and musical styles.” – Grace Seekins



YonderPhonics - YonderPhonics walks a line between contemporary danceability and complex musicality that is rare in today's industry. They bring together a diverse set of influences drawing from Jazz, Funk, Roots, World, and Rock music, and roll them all into a sound that is something unexpected and entirely original.



dogfuck - Dense bizarro rap from Phil Green of Cog Diss fame and glory. Fuck, not fucker.



Little Graves - Little Graves is an intense power trio that juxtaposes influences from punk, post-punk, grunge, prog rock, psychedelia, and noise with musique concrete, samples, and field recordings



The Ragnarockers - The finest jam band in Valhalla returns with some of the best "funky/jazzy blu-pop" they could pull from Mimir's well without losing too many eyes.



Goddess ov Mindxpansion - metal soloist singer songwriter from crozet, va doom, thrash, old school death metal, 90s feminist inspired lyrics.
