EXIT Galleries Presents Chase Murphy & Special Guests

<a href="https://open.spotify.com/artist/5X4BIOflUcRXrZtuAQg9lx?si=2We3fzjUQl2kKUA_t8UCVg">Chase Murphy</a> Chase Murphy is Boston’s next superstar. The Alternative Hip-Hop artist first broke into local conversation with his 2017 cult-classic “Dope Deala'', but it wasn't until the following year that he caught national attention with his electrifying hit, "No Mo". Millions of streams later, the rapper has continued to expand his loyal fanbase with memorable bodies of work and distinctive visual branding. After selling out shows at some of Massachusetts’ most prestigious venues, Chase put both his money and reputation on the line in 2019 when he built a multi-level stage in his own backyard. Acting as a carpenter by day and rapper by night, the young entrepreneur put together the first “Junkyard Jam”; a showcase of local talent demonstrating the power of community. The event drew a crowd of nearly 300 people, and earned the rapper a headliner at Boston's Brighton Music Hall the following winter. In 2022, Murphy notably pushed the limits of independent touring with the launch of his “Junkyard Jam Tour”, which featured a number of DIY shows in backyards and unique spaces across the country. The Golden Boy’s blueprint has since inspired countless artists both at home and abroad, as his unique approach to live music has been nothing short of pioneering. Finding his success outside of traditional avenues such as venues and labels, Chase Murphy has progressively built one of the most interesting and organically budding careers in the music industry. <a href="https://open.spotify.com/artist/7gOC3ActNguLBenYrP2ndM?si=jGh6jKECTYKZ5niqkhm55A">Cashus Knight</a> Cashus Knight is a Massachusetts artist best known for his anthemic catalog and commanding stage presence. Acting as his own producer, Cashus pushes the envelope of modern trap music, creating a sound that is as unique as it is catchy. Since his 2020 album "So It Goes", Cashus has continued to earn the belief of his peers with hard-hitting records and production credits. <a href="https://open.spotify.com/artist/6MJHYFIRxicXnYNhDdfn80?si=XXXIja8uQNKaUbKkwT9o-Q">BensBeenDead</a> BensBeenDead is a 26-year-old vocalist, songwriter, and producer based out of Portland, Maine. His style can be described as a dreamy blend of Electronic Pop and Alt-R&amp;B, fueled by airy synths and bubbly percussion. Ben started making music circa 2018 and quickly caught the ear of his local music scene. In 2019 he was chosen by fellow Maine artist Spose to open for a country-wide tour in over 23 states. Ben has since released a number f singles that culminated in a partnership with an independent record label Off Center. Ben released his debut project "Gardening" in the fall of 2020. The project was met with rave reviews and landed editorial placements on Spotify's Chill Vibes, Chill Pop, and Fresh Finds. The following year he released his second EP "Lovely Creatures" with ALT:Vision records, which helped to solidify the uniqueness of his sound in the eyes of curators and industry professionals. <a href="https://open.spotify.com/artist/71AIza3uZRomgw3ViwM6GK?si=LePPbRZeRmygjAeOoYBY-g">ZAAY</a> ZAAY hails from Lawrence, Massachusetts, a miniscule town north of Boston. Its proximity to one of the nation’s premiere areas for eclectic hip-hop talent accounts for ZAAY’s willingness to innovate in his music. He’s been close to the hip-hop scene his entire life, studying it to learn where it breaks down at the seams so that he could one day reconstruct it in his own image. He began freestyling when he was an adolescent to understand the ebb and flow of the genre, also to give breath to the complex mess of rap-inspired ideas tumbling around in his brain. He first began to further organize these verses into cohesive songs with hooks in February of 2016. Now, with years of experience under his belt, he’s transforming into a fearsome presence that commands attention whenever he breathes on a track. <a href="https://www.exitgalleries.com/">E﻿XIT</a> E﻿XIT Galleries is a social sculpture and site-specific immersive visual art installation.

EXIT Galleries Presents Geskle, Trophy Wife, Tiberius

SATURDAY MAY 6TH 7-10PM : <a href="https://open.spotify.com/artist/6vs7hYqS7v8KjGlZOv2DLN?si=SRu6xv8tR1Oow4Ow2vVZMg">G﻿eskle</a> Geskle is the songwriting project of twenty year old Jesse Golliher. Geskle is best known for his dreamy and melancholic soundscapes, combined with hard hitting honest lyrics. During his early teen years he lived in Spring City, TN with no internet access and taught himself how to play guitar out of sheer boredom. After moving to Worcester, Massachusetts, and playing in high school bands for several years, Geskle put out his first ep Rose Colored Glasses, which has since garnered more than five-million streams total, along with the song So She Goes hitting indie viral status thanks to Geskle’s presence on TikTok. After a long year of silence, Geskle returned with Half of It, a single that he crafted along with his new friend and co-producer/writer Matias Soto Allende. Together they delivered the same dreamy elements that were heavily characterized in Rose Colored Glasses, but with a higher emphasis on elements akin to more earthy indie rock. Jesse and Matias are keeping this sound through their next release Strife and Everything Bothersome with Half of It being the first single <a href="https://open.spotify.com/artist/7HcbQJiChdkCTU40v2tsvc?si=nRglGQbrQ-adKUsbeFk3pw">T﻿rophy Wife</a> The brain child of twenty-three year old Newtown, Connecticut native McKenzie Iazzetta- is an indie rock band currently based in Brooklyn, NY. Started in Allston, MA in 2018, Trophy Wife has grown and evolved their sound as a staple in the Boston DIY scene. They have received press from Penny Mag, The Boston Hassle, Wack Mag and had radio performances on WTBU and WERS. They have also performed at Brighton Music Hall and Paradise Rock Club supporting The Beaches and Skegss. Keep an eye out for Trophy Wife and their newest release “Voyeur”! <a href="https://open.spotify.com/artist/0q9oSteVaQ1lK7LvYMJCdq?si=jUTqAUiXRw2oa5LojV_zuw">T﻿iberius</a> Tiberius is the musical brainchild of Vermont native Brendan Wright. As producer, vocalist, and multi-instrumentalist, Wright’s work under Tiberius encompasses an extensive journey of DIY music mastery, and lyrical intimacy, all while pushing the boundaries of album structure and narrative ever further from the collective comfort zone. Every Tiberius project shines both as a self contained album, and in the greater context of Wright’s artistic journey. From the lyrically raw and sample heavy Don’t Let Your Light Fade, Ya Little Disco Ball, to the borderline perfectionist production and darker self-critical lyricism of A Depressing Optimism, to the lush, expansive soundscapes, sagacious yet candid emotional thru line, and visionary melodic mood of Lull, each Tiberius album is just as much a mountain top as another step in a long, heroic odyssey. In 2021, Tiberius expanded into a four-piece project fit for 'the rock show format'. With the help of longtime collaborator Kelven Polite (bass), and bandmates Ben Curell (drums) and Christian Pace (guitar), Tiberius continues to establish itself across the Northeast as a notably explosive and compelling project. Tiberius pulls from a broad range of influences including the likes of The Flaming Lips, Car Seat Headrest, Arthur Verocai, Sleater Kinney, and Courtney Barnett among countless others. <ul><li>A﻿ll ages</li><li>Doors @ 7pm</li><li>No outside beverages</li><li>T﻿icket includes complimentary beverages from Topo Chico</li><li>R﻿e-entry is ok</li><li></li></ul>E﻿XIT Galleries is a social sculpture.

Inspired by early 2000s garage rock, indie and alternative, the band focuses on high energy and experimental live performance, staking claim within Boston’s DIY scene over the past year. Their music captures the liminal space among juvenile innocence, first loves, failed relationships, and life’s unavoidable senescence. Those themes warp together as they guide the listener through Main Era’s turbulent psyche on their path to healing. The band released their Debut EP “Dreamer” last December and are currently recording a new project set to release early this summer.
