Godcaster is known for the maximalist and emotionally explosive revelations of sound that are its live shows. The Brooklyn-based rock band was founded by childhood friends Judson Kolk and Bruce Ebersole and solidified in 2018 with the addition of David Mcfaul, Von Kolk and Sam Pickard. They are currently on a tour of North America, including shows supporting Deeper, Model/Actriz and Panchiko. Their co-headliner, Immaterial Possession, is a local band that fuses folk, psychedelia and prog rock to create its shadowy and otherworldly discography. The band was formed by Atlanta natives Cooper Holmes and Madeline Polites, who moved to Athens and teamed up with percussionist John Spiegel and keyboardist and woodwind player Kiran Fernandes. Together, they created the band’s debut self-titled album and released it via Cloud Recordings in 2020, followed by Mercy of the Crane Folk via Fire Records in 2023. The show will feature support from Chandelier, an esoteric guitar band from Atlanta, and Robe, a local shoegaze band led by Bryan Casey.
