Sadurn with Windier and Night Hawk

Intimacy is manifested in every moment of Radiator, the debut album from Philadelphia’s Sadurn. This feeling of closeness, of being able to lend your every sense to one’s confessions of internal conflict, has carried over from the band’s origins as the solo bedroom-folk project of frontperson Genevieve DeGroot.

Now emerging as a four-piece with the addition of members Jon Cox, Tabitha Ahnert, and Amelia Swain, Sadurn delivers emotive indie rock on Radiator that explores the struggles and eventual beauty of grappling with multiple emotional realities, particularly when it comes to relationships. The album is a fleeting, impactful glimpse at one’s whole heart, and its sweeping, special nature is evident from the moment it opens.

Windier is a foggy, minimalist electric folk band from Portland, Maine. Windier is smashing the bell and crawling inside. It is running down the mountainside like rain. It is the knot coming loose. It is noticing your hands in the rubble. It is cello, bass, drums, guitar, and three voices. 

Night Hawk writes achingly intimate songs of isolation and disconnect; of dwelling in our depths, licking our wounds, and stumbling a little bit as we try to better ourselves and our situations. Brutally honest, powerfully self-reflective, and deeply relatable, their music hurts in the very best of ways.
