Applefeast was formed two years ago between lead singer, Justin Park, and lead guitarist, Sam Anzures. Drawing inspiration from bands such as Weezer, The Smashing Pumpkins, and Coldplay, Applefeast plays a mixture of rock, alternative, and indie rock that inspires the audience as well as gets them jumping. Performing at locations such as Fish Head Cantina, The Recher Theatre and UMBC's very own Flat Tuesdays, Applefeast is a local band made by some friends that want to give the world a great show.
The Assembly Line is an indie Pop/Rock band from NYC. Rapidly making a name for themselves, the band has seen success in recent years with placements on hit MTV shows and rave reviews in the press.
