Carrying Torches
Hailing from the crossroads of suburban Chicago and rural farmland, Carrying Torches emerged in 2016, bringing together the talents of founding members Justin Daniel, Jon Paul Gray, Misty Okroi, Mike Bass, and Alex Jaskula.
In 2017, the band unveiled their debut EP, “Ace of Wands,” marking the beginning of their sonic journey. The following year, they released “Strangers EP,” which earned them recognition as Deli Chicago’s New Artist of the Month in September. Their track “Strangers” from the EP also clinched the coveted Song of the Year title at the Kankakee Area Music Awards in 2019.
As they continued to evolve, Carrying Torches treated fans to a series of captivating singles, including “Computer,” “Higher,” and “Stupid” in 2020, followed by “Champagne” in 2021. In 2023, the band unveiled a trio of mesmerizing singles: “Small Talk,” “Snow Angel,” and “Unusual.” The band is expected to release four singles in 2024 including “Conversations” and “All For Nothing”.
With over 120 exhilarating performances under their belt and a catalog of compelling music videos, Carrying Torches shows no signs of slowing down. In 2024, the band is set to ignite stages across the Midwest (stay tuned for dates) while unveiling four eagerly anticipated singles produced by ABG Studios.
Catalina Cara
Moldovan-Romanian alt-pop artist from Bucharest, known for blending dreamy soul, ‘80s synth shimmer, and chill-step grooves into velvet hooks.
Latest single ‘What a Feeling' marks a new creative phase, raw, soulful, and rooted in vulnerability. “‘What a Feeling’ is a song I wanted people to experience as a warm embrace, offering them the time, safety, and peace to recover, along with a gentle reminder that we are not alone on our journey. It’s about rebirth, the freedom and beauty of sharing the light we discover within ourselves—a moment of emotional healing where we reclaim the inner energy and resources to give the world love and a touch of magic,” says Catalina.
‘What a Feeling’ not only honours her personal resilience but also reflects a broader longing for a kinder, more
compassionate world.
Catalina Cara has already carved out a distinctive space in Europe’s music scene, earning recognition from CLASH, Earmilk, CULTR, LOCK Magazine, and others for previously released singles. She has performed at Electric Castle, Summer Well, and Romanian Fashion Week, and was nominated as Best Emerging Artist at Romania’s Elle Style Awards. Her singles have landed on coveted Spotify editorial playlists and continue to resonate with audiences drawn to her signature mix of ethereal vocals, bold basslines, and fearless storytelling.

CINDI!
CINDI! IS NOT A PERSON, CINDI! IS A METHOD OF BREAKING FREE FROM THE EVERYDAY GRIND AND ALL THOSE PESKY RULES LIFE SEEMS TO THROW AT US.
IT’S ABOUT SHAKING OFF THE CONSTRAINTS AND EMBRACING WHO YOU REALLY ARE — A CELEBRATION OF INDIVIDUALITY AND LIBERATION BORN FROM THE IDEA THAT WE ALL DESERVE A LITTLE FREEDOM, CINDI! INVITES YOU TO STEP OUTSIDE YOUR COMFORT ZONE.
IF YOU’RE READY TO BREAK FREE FROM THE ORDINARY AND DIVE INTO A WORLD WHERE CREATIVITY KNOWS NO BOUNDS
CINDI! IS AN EXPRESSION THAT RESONATES, INSPIRES, AND REMINDS US THAT LIFE IS WAY MORE FUN WHEN YOU’RE LIVING IT ON YOUR OWN TERMS.
CINDI! IS ALL ABOUT THOSE MOMENTS WHEN YOU FEEL TRULY ALIVE AND UNAPOLOGETICALLY YOURSELF. EACH SONG IS A REMINDER THAT IT’S OKAY TO BE DIFFERENT, TO FEEL DEEPLY, AND TO CELEBRATE THE QUIRKS THAT MAKE YOU, YOU!
Creepzz
From the gritty council estates of Thetford to national recognition, Creepzz is redefining the sound and soul of UK hip-hop.
As an independent artist with features on BBC Look East, BBC Radio 1Xtra, and the Norwich Evening News, Creepzz isn’t just making music—he’s leading a movement.
Blending raw authenticity with lyrical precision, his sound evokes echoes of K Koke, Benny Banks, and Potter Payper. But make no mistake—Creepzz’s voice is his own: unfiltered, passionate, and unapologetically real.
His journey is one of resilience and rebirth. Raised amid hardship, Creepzz could have been another statistic of the streets. Instead, he turned struggle into storytelling. After a life-altering promise to his late father in 2018, he chose purpose over pain, emerging from the shadows to become a beacon of change.
Today, Creepzz stands as a powerful advocate against knife crime and for mental health awareness, using his platform to speak truth to trauma. His music strikes a chord with those who’ve walked through darkness and are seeking light. With over 3.3 million views on TikTok and a growing presence across Spotify, Apple Music, and SoundCloud, his message is spreading fast—and far.
More than just an artist, Creepzz is a mentor and motivator.
His story inspires others to rise above adversity and take control of their narrative. For his fans, he’s not just a voice—they see him as a mirror and a megaphone.
