The Point is a genre-blending musical trio that infuses many different cultures’ folk musics with eclectic influences ranging from Ethiopian jazz, Saharan guitar music, dub, Thai Morlam, and the avant-garde.
Formed in 2017 by then class mates Jack Montesinos and Joe Roddy, the two best friends added Toulousain ex-pat drummer Nico Léophonte to join the creative journey. This small but mighty sonic ensemble symbolizes the vibrant and experimental voyage of psychedelic beat music from abroad with a western “jam” approach

Hotel De Nova is born from the vibrant latin music landscape of Austin, Texas. Formed in 2023, their sound is a concoction of Cumbia, Chicha, Bolero and various other flavors and rhythms found deep within the roots of Latin music and beyond. The band features members of Superfónicos and El Combo Oscuro.
