SUMMARY:Waterloo Makes Music: Frida and the Mann and Nature Nvoke
DESCRIPTION:Waterloo Makes Music is a free concert series\, presented by Cleveland Rocks: Past\, Present\, Future\, showcasing acts from the Cleveland music scene at various locations in the Waterloo Arts & Entertainment District. \nFri\, October 2\, 2026 • 6-8pm\nThe Treelawn (15335 Waterloo Rd.)\nFree event! RSVP Here. \n\n\n\n\nFrida and the Mann\nEmerging in 2024 from Cleveland\, OH\, Frida and The Mann blends alternative rock and indie pop into a genre-defying sound. From Frida and the Mann’s Inception\, the goal was simple. Make music that people can feel. Be unapologetic. Be raw. Be true. This band from Cleveland\, OH was formed in mid 2023 by Frida Mann (vocals) Adam Cramer (guitars) and Zachary Horstman (drums) while in someone else’s basement\, in a small space\, with big dreams. Shortly thereafter\, Stefan Johnson (bass/vocals) joined to complete the sonic landscape.\nNow winners of the 2024 Cleveland Music Awards Best New Artist\, they are emerging as one of the most unique sounding musical artists in Cleveland. Their alternative atmospheric pop-rock sound hits hard as you feel every turn of the rollercoaster songs in your body because it’s straight from their soul.\nhttps://fridaandthemann.com\nhttps://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=61556209380742 \nNature Nvoke\nCleveland artist Nate “Ace” Eberhardt is an Afro-futurist and prolific conceptualist whose belief in the healing power of music has manifested itself in 5 singles and 7 EP’s. These works of varying numbers of tracks were produced and released under the name Nature\, including the 2024 12-song album\, “Doors Of Perception.” Since its beginning as a solo project in 2019\, Eberhardt has primarily been concerned with turning the practice of merging past struggles and present identity into a sound. Naturally evolving since its conception\, what was once a solo bedroom project has become a full ensemble with the additions of drummer David “Coach Dave” Parks and bassist Josh “Mekhi” Burton. Now Nature Nvoke\, the group is releasing Echoes In Eternity\, an 5 song EP\, the group’s first full band offering.\nhttps://www.facebook.com/naturenvoke\nhttps://www.instagram.com/naturenvoke \n\n\n\n\n\nThis event is made possible with support from Cuyahoga Arts and Culture and The Ohio Arts Council.\n\n\n

Their sound pulls from classic foundations but avoids nostalgia\, focusing instead on balance: polished yet raw\, confident and self-aware. Horns\, guitars\, keys\, and bass are treated as equals\, allowing each song to take the shape it needs. Lyrically\, Fox Ears explores themes of identity\, ambition\, ego\, relationships\, excess\, and self-reflection.https://www.foxearsmusic.com/\n\nMoon Echo GardenMoon Echo Garden is a four-piece psychedelic rock band known for their unrelenting full-group vocal harmonies\, blending surreal soundscapes with a heartbeat of rock and a vision of music as a force for human connection in a universe of love. Led by the effervescent Meganne Stepka (guitar)\, the band features the incomparable Lisa Kimpel (drums)\, the grounding presence of Chris Frohring (bass)\, and the delightful lift of Kate Hart (keys). Together they create immersive musical experiences that invite listeners into reflection\, wonder\, and shared connection.https://www.moonechogarden.com/\n\n\n\n\n\nThis event is made possible with support from Cuyahoga Arts and Culture and The Ohio Arts Council.\n\n\n
