Cal in Red is a Grand Rapids indie pop project started by two brothers that got a little too obsessed with Tame Impala and Porches in college. In 2018 Kendall and Connor Wright began learning to write and record in Connor's childhood bedroom, thankfully they've since upgraded to recording in an adult bedroom. Their music is often characterized by catchy melodies, dreamy synths, and punchy drums; playing out themes of regret, aspiration, and nostalgia. The band is named after their third brother Cal who assists as tour manager/director. Catch their single "Zebra" on your mom's new favorite show: Skymed, airing now on Paramount Plus.
There is a quiet confidence to the music of Steve Leaf. He has been writing songs for fifteen years now. Some songs about love, some songs about love lost, and others about everything else to cover all the bases. Steve hails from Michigan and cut his teeth in the singer/songwriter scene of Chicago which is to say he usually tries to sneak a Wilco cover into his set.
