Koyal / Chanteclaire

Koyal is an Atlanta based indie-rock band. Since forming in 2018 in a college basement, they’ve performed in ATL venues like the Masquerade, Criminal Records, Smith’s Olde Bar, and more. Koyal’s debut album, Mountain City, has a diverse sound with influences ranging from pop, indie/alternative, rock, and blues. Their sophomore EP “Joyride” is an experimental jazz-infused take on pop!

Chanteclaire formed at the start of the COVID quarantine in Spring 2020 in Philadelphia, PA. Sister and brother Jemma and Max Mines and friend Elias Rappaport began gathering old song parts and writing new ones, ultimately building a full length album. The band's eclectic, genre-defying and extra-terrestrial sound is inspired by the isolation and emotional rollercoaster of the pandemic. Their album is the first official release for Jemma (lead vocals), who was 17-years-old at the start of the project and now a college freshman, though she has been writing songs for as long as she can remember. Max and Elias have been producing music together since high school where they met, and have collaborated on Max's previous project Language Please.
