Bonnie Trash is the project of twin sisters Emmalia and Sarafina Bortolon-Vettor, wedding post-punk’s steeley-eyed austerity to goth rock’s brooding grandeur. Rather than fashioning nightmares into reality, the band paints reality as a nightmare; rife with pain, suffering, and gothic theatre.

Like their forebears Joy Division, Black Sabbath, or John Carpenter, Bonnie Trash understands that everyday atrocities haunt the periphery of our lives. A black cloud looming on the edge of our vision. Curses abound. You can’t ward them off. You’d best make an unholy racket.

Where their first full length, Malocchio (2022), shrouded Bonnie Trash’s nightmares in dusky dreamlike reverb, Mourning You (2025) is vivid and immediate. Mourning You is less a post-mortem fantasia than a sudden, swift dagger to the heart. This is sorrow not as a lingering bruise, but a gushing wound.

Bonnie Trash has performed at renowned festivals across Canada, made their U.S. debut at The New Colossus Festival in New York City (2023), and has shared the stage with TRAITRS, Chastity, Dilly Dally, Bria Salmena, and The OBGMs. They have been featured in Guitar World, Metal Hammer, Classic Rock Magazine, Exclaim!, BrooklynVegan, and The Line of Best Fit.

Blending inspirations from DIIV, Sunny Day Real Estate, and Manchester Orchestra; And I, You provides a balance of subtle, intricate melodies and heavy fuzz alongside raw, introspective lyrics.

The Maxines is an all-female grunge band hailing from Savannah, Georgia. AJ Grey leads on vocals, twins Coco and Maddie Oke kill it on drums and guitar, and Emma Faith Smith hammers the bass. Their sound combines fuzzy tones, swoon-worthy riffs, moody vocals, and angsty rhythms for a gritty nostalgic punch. The group has gained a reputation for their high-energy and commanding live shows. Their debut album, “Skin Tight,” is unapologetic, and solidifies the group as a mainstay in the underground rock scene.

The Maxines have been awarded Best Local Metal Band, Best Local Punk Band, and were finalists for Best Local Concert of 2023, Best Local Album, and Best Local Rock Band in Savannah, GA.
