Hey y'all, my wonderful and amazing friend molly possum put up this gofundme for me after I got banged up real bad in a car crash this week. Not gonna lie, things are pretty rough. I have no transportation, my hand is broken and might need surgery, already getting medical bills, and this is unfortunately gonna cause me some legal trouble. I hate asking for help but honestly, and he would be appreciated right now. i also apologize if I haven't been getting back to booking request for bands this last week. i've been overwhelmed, and sending emails with this hand is a royal pain in the ass. But I am gonna get back on it soon. Getting to work with talented artists and bring heavy music to Knoxville is one of the things that keeps me going, so i'm eager to get back to it. In the meantime, any help is greatly appreciated. love all of you. here's the link.

WENDIGO ARTIST SHOWCASE
This is the last one of these we get to do before the show this Saturday, and we saved on of the best for last. Made up of members who have been pillars of the Knoxville metal scene over various bands, we are proud to host home town heroes and doom rippers, Ninja Witch ( ) this Saturday!

From The Artist
“Described by lead guitarist Herb Himes as “the bastard child of Dave Wyndorf and a groupie from a 1994 Monster Magnet backstage orgy,” NinjaWitch fuses cosmic space rock with a thunderous doom metal edge. Their sound is an explosive blend of mind-bending riffs and thick, hypnotic grooves that’ll pull listeners deep into the void. Fans of Monster Magnet, Hawkwind, and Black Sabbath will feel right at home as the band delivers its unique brand of cosmic heaviness.“

Come catch them along with all the other killer bands this Saturday at Barrelhouse by Gypsy Circus ( ) for the HEAVIEST SHOW OF THE YEAR🤘🤘

WENDIGO ARTIST SHOWCASE

Hailing from the darkest hollers on Knetucky, this is a band we have wanted to host for a LONG time now. Wendigo Doom Fest is proud to shatter your eardrums with the might CROP ( )

From The Band
Formed in 2020 in Lexington, KY, CROP is a four-piece heavy band steeped in the grit of 90s grunge and sharpened by the weight of modern doom. Their sound is both relentless and reflective—massive walls of distortion colliding with lyrics that cut deep. With Marc Phillips on vocals, Zach Hunter on guitar, Braun Dabney on bass, and Andrew Beauvier on drums, CROP crafts songs that explore grief, isolation, existential dread, and the fight to stay human in an increasingly fractured world.

Their debut album CROP (2021) introduced audiences to their brutal honesty and raw sonic identity. With their follow-up S.S.R.I (2025, Third House Communications), the band has expanded both emotionally and sonically, delivering a record that is as vulnerable as it is heavy. Known for cathartic live performances and a growing presence on the underground festival circuit, CROP has shared stages with heavyweights like WEEDEATER, CONAN, and BONGZILLA while earning praise from outlets like The Obeliski, Outlaws of the Sun and Desert Psychlist securing S.S.R.I. at #4 on the August 2025 Doom Charts. 

For CROP, the music is a confrontation—a refusal to look away from the darkest corners of life, and an insistence that even pain deserves to be heard at full volume.

Catch CROP next Saturday at Barrelhouse by Gypsy Circus ( ) for THE HEAVIEST SHOW OF THE YEAR

Wendigo Artist Showcase!!

When we were picking the line up for this show, I told one of the other Nashville bands I was looking for something different with a wild stage show. That other band told be "Check out Iguanahead ( )" and described them as "Funky Skate Grunge." We said hell yeah.

From The artist:
Formed in Nashville in 2022 after countless rowdy late night jams, Iguanahead is the brainchild of three friends James Moor (guitar), Nathan Camp (bass), and Jonah Gillespie-Sickmen (drums). Inspired by both the metal heroes of old and the ever-growing modern world of psych rock, the trio creates unique rock packed with crushing stoner-esque riffs and beautiful soaring melodies.

Iguanahead is poised to infect the minds and bodies of music fans with their distinctive blend of alt-rock, psych, and doom metal. Their raucous live show backs it up. They are on a quest to become a mainstay of the rock n’ roll landscape

Come check out the mighty Iguanahead at on Sept. 13th for THE HEAVIEST SHOW OF THE YEAR🤘🤘

Wendigo HEADLINER Showcase!

Hailing from The Motor City, Wendigo Doom Fest is proud to be co headlined by these absolute monster of blackened sludge, Temple of The Fuzz Witch ( )

From the Band
Forged in the frostbitten heart of Detroit in 2017, Temple of the Fuzz Witch conjures a heavy brew of Blackened Doom soaked in fuzz, filth, and fury. With riffs that crush and lyrics that haunt, this three-piece outfit channels the bleakness of a Michigan winter into a sound that’s raw, hypnotic, and wholly their own. For fans of the heavy, the haunted, and the hellbound.

Come catch Temple Of The Fuzz Witch on Sept. 13 at Barrelhouse by Gypsy Circus ( ) for the HEAVIEST SHOW OF THE YEAR🤘🔥
