Ann Marie Metz is a Milwaukee-based singer/songwriter who feels most at home on the highway. A piano player by training and a guitar player by curiosity, she weaves classic rock, folk, and blues into songs that explore love, loss, and the quiet transformations found along life’s journey. In 2024, she released her self-recorded debut EP, Runaway, described by listeners as “meditative” and “nostalgic.” The following year, she formed her band, Ann Marie & The Fever Dreams, bringing a ’70s rock-forward sound to her songs at local music venues across Milwaukee. You can find Ann Marie on Instagram at @annmariemetz_ and her music on all major streaming platforms. Lily Slay has a voice like velcro, molasses, and campfire ashes. Hailing from Charleston, SC, she cut her teeth playing with The Royal Tinfoil, slingers of rock Americana, dumpster pop, and pluff mud party jazz. She now proudly calls the Cream City home, playing with her band Lily Slay and the Vertebrae, delivering her unique combination of country camp, wild-eyed whimsy, and aggressively anti fascist folk rock anthems.
