Jo Passed is Jo Hirabayashi’s dynamic and restless songwriting project. Infused with post-punk, alternative, grunge, and garage rock, the music is often described as angular and unpredictable. Following their Sub Pop debut, 2026's "Away" released on Youth Riot Records delivers a song-forward methodology that molds stress into a smooth, fun indie rock record, hitting a sweet spot between saccharine and melancholic.
Club U.S.A. was formed in 2022 in D.C.. Songs were written to provide a reason for hanging out every week. Shows are played as an excuse to hang outside the practice space. The four members enjoy the “Three P’s” (Pop, Psych, Punk) .
