Red Delicious and Sweeping Promises<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Sweeping Promises<\/a> is the brainchild of Caufield Schnug and Lira Mondal, two creatively restless musicians who deal in quick blasts of New Wave-tinged punk. Their sophomore album, entitled Good Living Is Coming For You, arrived earlier this summer, care of Feel It Records and Sub Pop. They live and work in Lawrence, KS.<\/p>\n

Their accompanying burlesque performer, Red Delicious, has performed to local music in all of her shows since 2018. Delicious came to this decision while enjoying Lawrence local music, \u201c I was listening to Strone Grower play at the Replay Lounge, and I recall liking their set and thought that their music would be cool to perform to. That\u2019s when I decided to use local music for all of my Foxy By Proxy performances from that point forward” Delicious said.<\/p>\n

KC based Collidescope<\/a> is the electronic experimental music outfit of musicians Hadiza Sa-Aadu (Hadiza.) and Madison Monroe (Babydoll). United in music and in intersections from their individual queer experiences, the pair as of late have been leaning into heavier and darker soundscapes providing backbone to the words that are most often sung, sometimes screamed, and least often spoken. Words that point crosshairs at power structures while opening an escape route through fantasy and surrealism.<\/p>\n
