HEADLINER: SLEEP NATION The Spaceman (Album Release Show)
Sleep Nation (Bran Merritt and Joey Lauretta) is an alt-rock band known for their explosive sound, electrifying performances, and boundary-pushing concepts. Their latest creative venture is an ambitious four-album series inspired by the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse, each chapter revealing a unique sonic identity and alter ego. The journey begins with Conquest, the first installment, led by "The Spaceman"—a cosmic figurehead symbolizing ambition, illusion, and the hunger for control. Blending gritty industrial synths with soaring melodies and cinematic flair, Conquest marks a bold new era for Sleep Nation, inviting listeners into a world where power seduces and the line between hero and tyrant blurs.
With Conquest, Sleep Nation sets the stage for a mythic odyssey through chaos, deception, and self-discovery. The Spaceman’s mission is not just domination—it's transformation, both musical and personal. As the first Horseman rides, Sleep Nation redefines what a concept album can be, infusing electronica with raw emotion, apocalyptic vision, and a sound that’s as otherworldly as it is deeply human.
SHADOWBLIND:
Shadowblind is a psych-rock band from Franklin, TN, blending grunge grit, progressive-metal power, and spacey psychedelia into a sound that's both heavy and hypnotic. Known for their theatrical live shows and emotional intensity, they’ve built a strong following in the Nashville area. With tracks like “Desensitized” and “Set You Free,” Shadowblind delivers raw energy and immersive atmospheres that push the boundaries of rock.
SISTERS MANN:
Sisters Mann (Alexandra and Lauren Mann) conjures a spellbinding mix of twin-blood harmonies and hypnotic fingerpicking guitar. Their sultry voices weave together with a natural magic only twins can summon, delivering raw, original songs that captivate and haunt.
Born co-writers, their connection runs deep; two minds, one force. With roots in Miami’s vibrant melting pot and Nashville’s Americana soul, Sisters Mann crafts a sound that’s both mystical and rooted in songwriting. Whether lighting up massive festivals like Calle Ocho or casting a quiet spell at The Bluebird Café, they bring an energy that’s electric, intimate, and timeless.

Sleep Nation Biography
Though they never let their heroes from decades past drift too far out of the rearview, one thing’s for certain: the boys of Sleep Nation have their sights set on the future of rock ‘n’ roll. The project was conceived by lead vocalist Bran Merritt in 2010. Drummer Joey Lauretta responded to Merritt’s Facebook ad, the two clicked instantly, and the rest is history! The name “Sleep Nation” was a product of both Anne Le Dressay’s “Sleep is a Country” and Merritt and Lauretta’s habit of sleeping into the afternoon after staying up late writing songs.
Hailing from Music City, this alternative rock outfit has gone on to open for national touring acts such as Adema and Sponge. Because they always give their all for their live shows, they’ve come to be known as the “Out of Control Rock ‘N’ Roll Duo.” Though Merritt and Lauretta are the sole members of the group, Sleep Nation’s sound and presence rivals that of a full orchestra.
In 2014, the duo’s music video and single release for "I Want You Back" landed the band a spot on Nashville radio station 102.9 The Buzz's "Local Buzz Top 25." Sunset Island Music ranked Sleep Nation #2 among the Top 25 Unsigned Bands around the world. In 2015, the pair’s second official music video "Mr. Unlucky" was released in promotion of the film “Hair of the Dog,” directed by Michael Butts. They also wrote "I'm a Werewolf, But That's Ok" for the movie’s soundtrack. In 2016, the band celebrated the release of their self-titled debut album. The single "Slip" became the album’s second track to be named 102.9 The Buzz’s "Local Buzz Cut of the Week." 2018 saw the arrival of singles "Scream & Shout" and "American Way" via Victory Music Buzz. Their new single “Headlights” marks their first release since 2019’s “Woman.” Later this year, Sleep Nation will release a track set to be featured in the end credits of the upcoming thriller “Potter’s Ground.”
