8:00 PM – Quintana Dead Blues eXperience (France)
A one-man rock’n’roll and heavy-blues force led by Piero Quintana. Expect raw, fuzzed-out guitar, gritty vocals, and a groovebox backbone — a modern, grunge-tinged take on blues that rips through covers and originals with theatrical intensity. Perfect for fans of loud, solo live spectacles and bruising blues-rock.

9:00 PM – The Means of Production (Chicago, IL)
A working collective centered around Chicago musician Mike Coy, The Means of Production blend loose-groove rock, covers, and spontaneous live jams. They’re a fixture on the local scene — gigging at neighborhood venues (including Montrose Saloon) and mounting tribute/cover sets alongside original material. If you like raw, no-frills live rock with a communal, “in-the-room” vibe, this is the crew to catch.

10:00 PM – On The Sun (Chicago, IL)
Chicago’s On The Sun delivers a potent dose of stoner rock steeped in thick, fuzz-heavy riffs and hypnotic grooves. Since forming in 2018, their sound has blended the raw power of classic rock with modern heaviness, crafting sonic journeys that are both crushing and atmospheric. Their latest album DRAG showcases their ability to balance heavy riffing with textured dynamics, making every track an immersive ride for fans of desert rock and doom-infused melodies.

11:00 PM – Deep Space Pilots (Chicago, IL)
A crushing trio in Chicago’s heavy underground, Deep Space Pilots deliver a potent mix of stoner/doom metal, hard rock, and ambient drone. Since the early 2000s, this riff-fueled outfit has been forging guttural, hypnotic soundscapes with bone-rattling intensity. Think sludge-laden atmospheres, grinding guitar, and a pulsating groove that drags you deep into their sonic void.
