 Mister E. Machine is an Indie-Glam Pop band based out of Chicago that combines acoustic rock with indie/pop elements to create a layered rock sound.  Mister E. Machine’s debut album ‘Shooting Stars’ was named ‘the best acoustic album of the last few years’ by Rock in Chicago Magazine. The group achieved a successful Kickstarter campaign for their music video “Rosa Marie”, a song about lead singer Manny Capozzi’s sister Rosa who helped him survive years of childhood bullying.  Comprised of singer/guitarist Manny Capozzi, drummer/producer Chuck Harling, and bassist/singer Melissa Kemper, Mister E. Machine is currently working on their sophomore album “The Stone Wall’ which will feature local crowd hits like ‘The Grindr Song’ as well as the title track ‘The Stone Wall’. The follow up will be produced by Chuck Harling and recorded and mixed in full analog format by Steve Witt with Reel Recorders Studio.

 Roxy Swain returned to the Chicago music scene with their third full-length release Beneath Full Moonlight, a 9-song record released on limited edition vinyl and digital formats in early 2016. With inspiration spanning the genres of soul, classic rock, power pop, dream pop, mod, and indie rock, Roxy Swain has written a mature follow-up to their critically acclaimed sophomore record Restless Hearts. Beneath Full Moonlight offers listeners an ever-changing scope of musical ideas and melodies, while staying true to Roxy Swain’s retro rock past. Roxy Swain is: Chuck Harling (drums), Matt Walters (lead guitar, keyboards) Manny Capozzi (bass, backing vocals), and Roxy Swain (lead vocals, rhythm guitar).
