It’s been a crazy year for Cloud Nothings since they burst onto the music scene last winter. At the time main man Dylan Baldi was eighteen, living at home, and making lo-fi indie rock on a crappy computer in his parent’s suburban basement outside Cleveland. Since then, Cloud Nothings has released an EP and a handful of singles, and the band has put a few North American tours under its belt. With all the internet notoriety and their recent signing with Carpark, Cloud Nothings are now able to record somewhere besides the basement.

A Classic Education come from Bologna, Italy. Part Canadian, part Italian. The band has been going since 2007. Their music is a mix of dreamy guitars, sixties melodies, psych-pop, garage and classic songwriting.
