Akrasia (band)
Akrasia is an American rock band from Bellingham, Washington. The group was founded by guitarist, Rylan Hislop, and drummer, Owen Sheets, in 2015. The band currently consists of Rylan Hislop and Jesse Lonchar on guitar, Owen Sheets on drums, and Chase Nielson on bass guitar and vocals. They have released three studio albums since 2018. Drawing influence from Grunge, Stoner rock, and Doom metal, they have made themselves distinct in the scene for their hard-hitting songs, dark lyrical themes, and intense live performances.

House Shows
Akrasia's first began gained traction playing in the Bellingham house show scene, becoming notable for their distorted riffs, shifting tempo, and their powerful drumming. The shows are often held in student-rented houses near the Western Washington University campus. They tend to be very close-knit in nature; naming the list of bands featured the particular evening, the price for entry, and only revealing the location of the event through the houses' pseudonyms. House shows in Bellingham typically feature three to four bands, allow entry to students only, and can attract several hundred attendees depending on the location.
