9:00 p.m. – Artificial Go (Cincinatti, OH)
10:00 p.m. – Wombo (Louisville, KY)
Artificial Go craft wiry, Dadaist-fueled post-punk with bright tuneful art-pop across their new album Musical Chairs (Feel It Records). Maximum RockNRoll calls it an “incessant wiggle of sparse and trebly guitar, solidly skeletal drumming, and mannered, alternately animated/nonplussed faux-Brit-accented vocals, reminiscent of Suburban Lawns, Delta 5, and the Slits.
Wombo first connected in 2016 and have crafted a unique lane over the near-decade since forming, contorting post-punk structures into uncanny shapes. On their newest release, Danger in Fives, they twist another knot into their belt, and come out creatively renewed. This pursuit of strengthening their craft has earned Wombo a beloved reputation among their community of independent musicians. Ask any adjacent musician operating today who they’re listening to, and more often than not you’ll hear Wombo toward the top of the list.
Driving to Studio-A? There are surface lots surrounding the area off of Ford Dr. and Bellflower Rd. where you may park for a nominal fee. Street parking is available just a short walk away on Bellflower Drive and East Blvd. Be sure to carpool and if you’ll be drinking, bring a designated driver. Taking public transit? Use the RTA Rapid Red Line and take it to the Little Italy – University Circle stop. Take the CircleLink right to Mather Memorial! Or take the Healthline to Euclid Ave & Cornell Rd station, we are just a 5 minute walk away.
Learn more at our website or RSVP on Facebook. We can’t wait to see you there, at the triumphant return of Studio-A, now in its 38th non-consecutive year!

About WRUW-FM 91.1 Cleveland: In 1946, WFSM was founded by the Flora Stone Mather Radio Club, “broadcasting” via a public address system. Since that time, it evolved into an AM carrier-current station in 1955 and then on February 26, 1967 to the FM-broadcast station it is now. WRUW 91.1 FM began as a ten watt mono station serving the University Circle neighborhood of Cleveland. In 1980, WRUW raised its power to 1,000 watts. The evolution of WRUW was completed when, on March 5 2002, WRUW increased its power to 15,000 watts. WRUW now serves a large portion of the Northeast/Northern Ohio region.
