Formed at a Long Island jazz school in the early ’90s, this psychedelic rock trio brought together three college kids from completely different backgrounds. After dropping out, they hit the road—touring across America and opening for national acts like The Ramones and The Bogmen.

electro fetus emerged from late-night drum & bass jam sessions at The Baby Jupiter Club in New York City. Originally a 12-piece experimental electronica and free jazz ensemble, the group evolved into a powerful 4-piece during the height of the Afro-Punk movement at CBGB's. Featuring Megman Oquendo (bass), Monk Americana (guitar), Micah Gaugh (sax/lead vocals), and Swami (drums), electro fetus became a standout act in NYC’s underground electronic, punk, and jazz fusion scenes.

During this period, they joined forces with Nubian Nightmare of ska-punk legends Mephiskapheles to form Brother Earth—a genre-bending project active during the final years of CBGB’s.

Known for igniting stages during a quiet era, the band played numerous outdoor festivals across the Northeast.

Gerry Arias is a bilingual indie singer-songwriter blending gothic western, dark folk, and punk grit. His latest album UNVAULTED explores identity, atmosphere, and emotional truth. “These songs had to be released—not just to clear the vault, but to finally let everyone hear what’s really been inside me.”
