Tyler Crain

Tyler Crain is a sound collage artist from Chicago, Illinois that manipulates and arranges source material from thrift store cassettes and his own compulsive field recordings. It's folk music. It's tension music. It's what it sounds like in his head.

Eli Sugerman

Eli Sugerman is a writer and illustrator based in Chicago, Illinois. His writing has appeared in Mangoprism, Two Headed Press, Raging Opossum Press, and Same Faces Collective. Along with Dizzy Turek he is launching Borametz Press, an experimental publishing project.

Shami of MoFo

This is the solo work of the leader of Mother Fortune, Shami. He loves to write and think ideas of what can bring people the most joy!

Early Country

Anti-shoegaze guitar/noise. For fans of that part of "Down by the River" where Neil Young invents no-wave.
