Event Description
Slow Funeral is the alias of South Carolina-based musician Mary Norris. She released her first single as Slow Funeral, “I Loved You In Another Life,” in November 2021. Shortly after, Norris put all of her energy into defining herself and her sound through abraded lyrical and musical vulnerability. Her alt-rock band is a marriage of her 90s influences, such as Radiohead, Jeff Buckley, The Cranberries, and Nirvana, paired with her Americana roots, such as Jason Isbell, Bruce Springsteen, and John Prine. Slow Funeral’s live performances have been making early impact in the Southeast, having toured the Southeast twice, the Northeast once, and having already shared the stage with acts like Slothrust, owen (Mike Kinsella of American Football), Pinkshift, Chase Petra, and more. In September 2024, Slow Funeral also was selected to perform a pre-show for Weezer, Dinosaur Jr., and The Flaming Lips. Norris is currently working with producer Corey Campbell on her debut album, Conditions of Trust.
Multi-instrumentalist and singer/songwriter, D.P. Hansen, first began recording home demos back in 2015 with the intention of using them as a groundwork for other musical projects. While navigating his music career as a drummer and backup singer for a number of Atlanta based artists over the years, he stockpiled songs in private and honed his musical skills through stylized composition. Over time, what initially started as a way to scratch down ideas, became the more idiosyncratic and elaborate productions that found their way under the GAMMA STAR moniker. In his upcoming debut album, “Cosmic Trash”, D.P. Hansen cuts his way through this new territory of solo artistry with signature vocal characterizations, strong melodies, thoughtful lyrical content, and sound design that weaponizes its own audio fidelity for emotive profit.
Cosomic Hippie’s goal with their music is to bring people together. Art is what inspires. Art is what we use to express ourselves in ways words never could.
