Blanket Approval is an indie groove rock band from NYC. They formed in 2021 when lead singer Jack Matteucci took a collection of demos and moved to Brooklyn, quickly meeting drummer/singer Joey Hadden. The two were joined by bassist Max Mena after they collided in the crowd of a punk show in Queens, and later by keyboardist/guitarist Rahul Chakraborty as he answered an ad on Craigslist.

The indie rock duo bringing infectious energy to the Nation's Capital. Childhood friends Jack Wright and William Lorenz began their musical journey in small-town Wisconsin, quickly gaining momentum with their debut album Stop Talking.

Now settled in D.C., Staring in Spaces released their boldest and most ambitious album yet, Kissing!, at the end of 2024. Featuring standout singles like the punchy "my mom/your dad" and the nostalgic "Postcard," the album pushes their pop sensibilities into rougher textures and edgier performances. With a successful tour behind them and energized audiences craving more. Wright and Lorenz are diving headfirst into 2026.

AIDAN LECLAIRE

Washington, DC

https://aidanleclaire.bandcamp.com/

Being born in Northern Virginia at the crossroads between the North and South greatly influenced the multi-genre sounds that define my music. As a singer songwriter, I never wanted to be pigeonholed into one specific genre. I believe in always being a student of music and I am constantly experimenting with different styles and sounds.
