Ra Ra Rasputin:
“If you haven’t seen them yet, you’ve been missing out. Ra Ra Rasputin is DC’s very own dance-funk-punk artrock band. Guaranteed to make you sweat.”
-The Black Cat

Anamanaguchi:
“Anamanaguchi is an insanely fun band that rocks out using two guitars, one bass, one drum kit and… hey drummer, give me a roll please… an old manipulated Nintendo. Guitarist/Programmer Peter Berkman hacks into an original Nintendo and manipulates its sound chip to create, along with Ary Warnaar and James DeVito, some of the catchiest and most delightful rock-outs you’ll hear.”

Lode Runner:
“When outsiders (or heck, even locals) think of D.C. music, dance bands don’t exactly come to mind. There are a few acts that have added loops or synthesizers on top of jangly pop tunes or angular rock riffs, but straightforward dance bands aren’t really around. Enter Lode Runner. They care about putting on an entertaining live show and putting on an intricately rump-shaking dance night with equal fervor.”
