Thursday August 20th The Exchange Project w/ R-NOT, Please Knock \*\*\* The Exchange Project is a Washington, DC based rock band. With members hailing from Caracas, Venezuela, La Serena, Chile, Fort Worth, TX and Cleveland, OH, The Exchange Project combines high-energy fuzz drenched guitar, intricate bass lines, apocalyptic drums and vocals that go from soulful baritone to full-out rock and roll snarl in less than a blink of your bloodshot eye. TXP will continue releasing original music in between studio sessions and playing the local DC music scene. \*\*\* From the suburban reaches of Washington DC, R-NØT is a high-energy punk-inspired rock trio. Prolific punk singer/songwriter Paul Makarov teams up Chuck Bowley (bass guitar) and Mike Packard (drums) to unleash a barrage of punky, chunky, yet highly melodic tunes that conjure up your inner angsty teenager. With a vibe reminiscent of a bygone era, their short, sweet, raw and powerful songs simply get stuck in your head. \*\*\* Drawing on everything from grunge to heavy metal, Northern Virginia alt-rock outfit Please Knock formed as longtime friends Zach Piner (vocals/guitar) and Chris 'CPZ' Peele (drums) reunited after a college degree and brief stint in the military. Along with 2024 additions Mark Conigliaro (bass) and Christian Sheets (guitar), they bring heavy, soulful music boasting equal parts melody and aggression. Presented by Songbyrd All ages
