Osees and Brigid Dawson

Osees, led by Rhode Island-born John Dwyer, has evolved his garage-punk project through noisy rock, psychedelic pop, and synth-infused styles. Known for albums like "Mutilator Defeated at Last" and "Protean Threat," Osees' energetic performances feature Dwyer's shouted vocals and wild guitar riffs. Longtime collaborators include Brigid Dawson and Lars Finberg. From German label Tomlab to In the Red, they've continually reinvented their sound, integrating synths into albums like "Intercepted Message." Notable for their collaborative ethos, Dwyer's projects span several genres, constantly pushing musical boundaries.

Brigid Dawson, an English-born musician and visual artist, is celebrated for her "whimsical" harmonies. She gained prominence as vocalist and keyboardist for the psychedelic garage rock band Thee Oh Sees. Her solo project, Brigid Dawson & The Mothers Network, explores a distinctive blend of psychedelic folk, jazz, and soul, showcased on her acclaimed album "Ballet of Apes." She has collaborated with artists like John Dwyer and Modern Nature.
