We use all these differences in music and culture and clash them together to make enTRANCE music. Music that's based in rock but has no borders or limitations.

MANIK
MANiK was born from combining two projects with similar ideals in the Moonshine Runners and Silk Feather Sun, from intimate acoustic performances by lead singer and guitarist Daniel Sanchez and rhythm guitar and supporting vocals Aaron Sanchez to full band performances, including the rest of the band comprised of Erik Sanchez on the bass, Jeff Free on guitar, Jorge Reyes on keys, Noe Salas on the drums and Randell Lys-Pierre on the soundboard. MANiK is a very versatile project that will take you for a ride! Taking that idea of intricate storytelling to hard-hitting rock and roll with catchy hooks, MANiK is a project that brings together three generations of rock and roll to keep the crowd on the edge of their seats!
CHANNELING OWEN
Channeling Owen 2025:
Channeling Owen is a melodic, NYC-based rock band that balances distorted guitars with strings and rich vocal harmonies. After a long hiatus the band recently reformed behind the songwriting duo of Stu Strumwasser (vocals) and Dean Beaver (lead guitar) adding violinist Nati Maglakelidze, guitar and sax player Mila Ortega, drummer George Wasek and bass player and cellist Luke Beaver (son of Dean).From the mid-nineties until the band’s first iteration broke up a couple of years after the turn of the millennium Channeling Owen received airplay on hundreds of college radio stations, was featured in Forbes ASAP and numerous music magazines, was a featured artist on Rollingstone.com, and their song "Scared of Me" was played on the teen drama "Dawson’s Creek,” which was the number one television show in the world at that time In their second iteration soul-searching, literary and sometimes-whimsical lyrics are still supported by strong musicianship, but live shows are more suited for intimate, candle-lit venues than rock clubs.
