Days N Daze

Whitney Flynn and Jesse Sendejas formed Days N Daze in 2008. The Houstonians have performed world over, most recently with music released by Fat Wreck Chords.

2020’s Billboard-charter Show Me the Blueprints introduced many to “thrashgrass," DND's acoustic punk addressing issues like mental health and addiction but also buoyant with the ideas of family and hope. With washboardist Meagan Melancon and bassist Matt Wilhelm, NYT bestselling author Shea Serrano called DND “a goddamn menace; more violent than the Femmes, more poguesy than the Pogues” and Houston Chronicle’s Jef Rouner wrote they’re “one of a kind in a city known for inventing whole new styles of music.”

Their breakthrough, Rogue Taxidermy, logs 10 years in 2023. Noisey called it “a proverbial doctorate thesis in bloody-fanged acoustic punk…Days N Daze songs warrant discussion apart from any punk rock cliches.” DND’s performed at Punk Rock Bowling, FEST, Punk in Drublic and on NOFX ‘s farewell tour. The band’s been featured in SPIN, Brooklyn Vegan and more.

Flynn is a solo artist and member of My Pizza My World. Sendejas’ projects include Chad Hates George with his sister Marissa Sendejas and Escape From The Zoo featuring his wife, Veronica. That band’s Fat Wreck debut, Countin' Cards spurred two tours with Doom Scroll.

DND nears 20 years with fans who tattoo their fishbone and stitch their logo, forming a fan base as unique as DND itself, once described by Serrano as “the most charming riot of all time.”

Shauna Dean Cokeland

Shauna Dean Cokeland is an acoustic folk punk artist with lyricism beyond her years and over 500,000 followers on TikTok and Instagram, comprised of real, engaged fans who know all the words to her songs—even the unreleased ones. Hailing from a small beach town in Maryland with dreams of taking over the world as the “Last Best Pop Star”, as her long anticipated latest single asserts, she is bold and confident and weaves tantalizing stories in her songs. Inspired by all things 2000s, Britney Spears, Eminem, Kesha, Tyler Childers, and low rise jeans, her infectious brand of Y2K nostalgia combined with a teenage passion for both emo and country music has fostered a sense of community among the Gen Z that’s hard to put into words.
