Qrrrky is an Indie rock quintet comprised of middle-aged adult goofballs who collaborate on songs about mental health, the stress of adulthood, as well as freedom and connection and nature. Qrrrky is fun . . . a little strange, sometimes kinda kinky. . . because we believe in collaboration, we bring together diverse experiences in our writing and our audiences.

Maria and the Coins are an indie pop-rock band based in Minneapolis, MN. Over the last decade, the fivesome have released a tapestry of big-picture pop anthems, soulful ballads, and driving-with-the-windows-down-belt-your-heart-out bangers. One idea remains a constant through it all: reminding listeners to keep moving forward. Maria and the Coins have opened for Christina Perri, Jukebox the Ghost, Papa Roach and Haley Reinhart. They have been featured on American Songwriter, The Current, Jazz88, and KFAI. Their 2024 mental health anthem “Something Good” will be featured in the upcoming independent film “interiorem pueri” next spring.
