The Somnambulants, performing as a boy/girl duo, have a misleading name. Listening is more like running through a frantic dream than sleepwalking. The Somnambulants released their debut album, Fabrication & Productivity, through Clairaudience Collective Recordings in 2000, Evacuation in 2004, and Paper Trail in 2004.

Facts on File preform as a 3-piece boy/girl/girl band fronted by The Somnambulants' Joseph White. Their modern rock sound has overtones of Talking Heads mixed with 60's garage rock and post punk influences. Look for their debut EP to be released through Clairaudience Collective soon.

STREGA is a project of former Somnambulant and Poundsign member Stephen Vesecky. They perform fantastic pop songs as a 4-piece rock band, but the songwriting style and a pulsing robotic backbeat make them sound almost electronic.

Self-described as upbeat-tragic, Swiss Dot create sugar-sweet bedroom pop music with aching lyrics hidden behind angelic vocals. Swiss Dot released their Debut EP, Watched You Misbehave, through Clairaudience Collective Recordings in February, 2003. The CD was described by Time Out NY as one of their favorite recent CD's. Sadly, Swiss Dot have parted ways.
