PERSONA 749, initially a two-piece project utilizing synthesizers to automate instrumentation, the band gradually expanded by adding members one at a time. Eventually, they  settled into a six-member lineup, all of whom lived together in Salt Lake City, fostering a tight-knit creative environment.  The band's early performances at college parties and DIY venues helped them cultivate a strong cult following. Persona 749 released their debut single, Live Order, in 2021, followed by the EP Bad Translations in 2022. Following the EP, they embarked on an ambitious release schedule, dropping 15 singles in 15 weeks, a move that further expanded their reach. This momentum led to Persona 749 performing at the 2024 Kilby Block Party, a massive music festival held in Salt Lake City. In late 2024, founder Che Landikusic relocated to New England, with Michael Bloom being the only other member to make the move. The remaining members stayed behind to finish school and pursue other projects. In their new home, Landikusic and Bloom sought out a fresh cast of musicians to continue Persona 749 allowing the band's concept of "persona" to remain fluid and ever-evolving. This led to the release of their debut full-length album JOCK ROCK in February 2025 and their first tour following Spring. Presented by Soda. This is a 21+ event
