Stokelys is a female-fronted punk band from Cincinnati, founded in 2022. They have played some great local shows in their short time as a band, including Santamania, Burritofest, and Witfest. For fans of Against Me, The Distillers, and other similar bands.

Bandmates Adam Brandt and Jeffrey Earl came up with the name "National Barks" to honor their first demo recordings as a newly created Cincinnati band. Each track unintentionally included Brandt's dogs barking in the background as pedestrians passed their practice space. Fortunately, the music matched the hounds' haunting howls, so the name stuck. With a retro, spooky vibe, National Barks explores a side of rock that will make you feel like you're riding along with the gang solving mysteries or watching a closeup shot of Uma Thurman's Feet. National Barks features Adam Brandt on guitar and vocals; Jeffery Earl on drums and vocals; and Nathan Stevens on bass.

Blending textures of shoegaze, post-punk, and post-hardcore with haunting indie vocals, Mall Witch hails from Cincinnati, OH. Their sound casts a moody light on modern individualism and social isolation. Vocals by sappha/Levi Antoine, lead guitar by Michael Salyers, bass by David Morgan, drums by Dan Spagna, and keys/backing vocals by Claire Lefton.
