Sludge, Hot///Cakes, Rat Church

Since their 2021 inception, Sludge has gained momentum with their angsty but dreamy, mosh-filled sets. A staple in the local house scene, the fourpiece alternative rock group couples their riot grrrl influence with beachy grunge – plus a thrifted, bold aesthetic to fit perfectly among the independently crafted and vintage clothing racks at Feels So Good’s South Austin space. The Austin band’s spacey songs will complement the psychedelic soundscape forged by Hot Cakes’ deep, haunting vocals and echoey instrumentals. Sludge’s funky, cinematic single “Greg Abbott’s Maxi Pad” will also suitably follow the political loudness on Rat Church’s “Kill Your Local Nazi.” – Katie Karp
