Moraine has built a reputation as an electrifying instrumental band, gaining an international audience with its unique amalgam of art rock, forward-thinking jazz, Asian-inspired music, and more. Balancing inventive composition with exploratory improvisation, the Seattle-based unit has performed in major U.S. cities on both coasts, in Mexico and Siberia (including Tuva), and at notable festivals such as NEARfest and Baja Prog. In 2019 the band was honored to open several U.S. shows for the legendary Soft Machine. Moraine's three releases on MoonJune Records (two co-produced by fabled Pacific Northwest sonic mage Steve Fisk) have garnered hundreds of enthusiastic reviews worldwide.

Spontaneous Rex is an experimental jazz and avant-rock band based in Seattle. The band focuses on original music and arrangements that range from modern jazz to fusion; from electronic music to progressive rock, creating their own signature style. The band is a quartet of piano/keyboards, guitar, bass, and drums. In Spontaneous Rex, you’ll find an eclectic range of influences, including spontaneous composition, seventies fusion, electronic improvisation, prog rock, and contemporary jazz, all seamlessly melded together in a unique, mind-expanding, limit-pushing musical experience. And although drawing from these influences, Spontaneous Rex creates an original sound with their own compositions and unique arrangements, but all the while still putting on an energetic and lively show.

Spontaneous Rex is comprised of Jake Sele (piano/keyboards), Matt Williams (electric guitar), Moe Weisner (bass), and Kyle Doran (drums).
