Details
The brainchild of frontwoman Tracey Thomas (#Akronsound, Unit 5), THE CRONES play energetic and exciting cover songs from your favorite female-fronted New Wave bands of the ’80s. Tracey and her group of talented female musicians are all over the age of 50, and they have been rocking capacity crowds since their debut in July of 2023. Their rapid rise in popularity is easy to understand as the band’s seasoned musicianship shines through entertaining renditions of songs made famous by Blondie, Joan Jet, Kate Bush, Cindi Lauper, The B52’s, and many more. These Girls Still Want To Have Fun and you will too when you catch a live performance by THE CRONES!
JUPITER 2 Intergalactic Surf & Turf
Jupiter 2 is a three-piece instrumental caper, fusing the echo-soaked swagger of surf rock with the hypnotic pulse of deep-space grooves. Emerging from Akron, Ohio’s underground scene, the band features drummer Mark Smith (Dutch Babies, Nite Klub, X_x), guitarist James Millar (Missile Toe, Peep), and bassist Linda Millar (The Crones, Peep)—all veterans of genre-bending projects like Zen Luv Assassins and the F-Models tribute band, S’Not Right.
Their sound is a cinematic collision of vintage sci-fi soundscapes, relentless rhythms, and otherworldly energy—equal parts beach party and alien abduction. Whether you’re catching a wave on some distant ocean planet or navigating Akron’s Route 8 at warp speed, Jupiter 2’s Intergalactic Surf & Turf is the ultimate soundtrack for your next cosmic adventure.
