                                <description><![CDATA[Singer/Songwriter Max Gomez grew up in Taos, New Mexico, where he fell under the influence of country blues early on and developed a songwriting style that was uniquely his. He received critical acclaim upon the release of his debut album Rule The World (2013, New West Records); and his subsequent EP, Me and Joe (2017, Brigadoon Records), contained a freshly minted classic, &#8220;Make It Me,&#8221; which has gained over 4 million listeners on Spotify alone. &#160; As a budding performer, Max apprenticed in the rarefied musical micro-climate of northern New Mexico, where troubadours like Michael Martin Murphey and Ray Wylie Hubbard helped foster a Western folk sound both cosmic and country. &#160; He has shared billing on hundreds of stages with genre stalwarts like James McMurtry, Buddy Miller, John Hiatt, Patty Griffin, Tommy James &#38; The Shondells, Jeff Beck, and Johnny Depp. Judging by the company he keeps, Gomez is poised to emerge as a prominent voice of Americana&#8217;s next generation. &#160; Max is currently on tour in support of his album Memory Mountain.]]></description>

                                <description><![CDATA[SPAGHETTI is an electrifying instrumental ensemble of Bay Area musicians featuring guitarist Jim Campilongo, accordionist/pianist Sam Reider, drummer Scott Amendola. Original compositions by Campilongo and Reider collide with tunes by Duke Ellington, Astor Piazzolla, Hank Williams and beyond. &#160; SAM REIDER is a Latin GRAMMY-nominated pianist, accordionist, composer, and educator from San Francisco, California. His work brings together various streams of American music, from jazz and folk tunes to popular song and contemporary composition. He has appeared as a bandleader and soloist at major festivals and venues around the world and his performances and original compositions have been featured on NPR, PBS and the BBC. Reider has performed, recorded and collaborated with a range of artists including Jon Batiste, Jorge Glem, Sierra Hull, Laurie Lewis, and Paquito d&#8217;Rivera. From his genre-bending acoustic ensemble The Human Hands to his duo collaboration with Grammy-nominated Venezuelan artist Jorge Glem, Reider&#8217;s unique compositional voice and melodicism runs throughout his eclectic projects. His 2022 solo piano record of original music Petrichor received four stars and made the Best of 2022 in Downbeat Magazine. Reider and Glem&#8217;s album Brooklyn-Cuman&#225; was featured on NPR&#8217;s Tiny Desk and was nominated for Best Instrumental Album in the 2023 Latin GRAMMY Awards.&#160; &#160; Billboard Magazine calls JIM CAMPILONGO &#8220;an American treasure&#8221;, an accolade which this guitarist&#8217;s artistry and influential career has richly earned him. TIMEOUTNYC describes Campilongo perfectly- &#8221;New York has no shortage of guitar heroes but few cover as many bases as Jim Campilongo reveals a range that extends from seductive country-swing to atmospheric jazz and well beyond.&#8221; With fifteen albums of original material and guest appearances on dozens of recordings &#8212; from the Bammie-winner&#8217;s contribution on Cake&#8217;s million-selling Prolonging the Magic to (most recently) doing lead guitar duties with The Little Willies, his band with Norah Jones &#8212; Campilongo has played with JJ Cale, Al Anderson, Gillian Welch/David Rawlings, Peter Rowan, Martha Wainwright, Bright Eyes, Teddy Thompson, and Burning Spear to name a few, has earned two Gold records. &#160; For SCOTT AMENDOLA, the drum kit isn&#8217;t so much an instrument as a musical portal. As an ambitious composer, savvy bandleader, electronics explorer, first-call accompanist and capaciously creative foil for some of the world&#8217;s most inventive musicians, Amendola applies his wide-ranging rhythmic virtuosity to a vast array of settings. His closest musical associates include guitarists Charlie Hunter, Nels Cline, and Jeff Parker, Hammond B-3 organist Wil Blades, violinist Jenny Scheinman, saxophonist Phillip Greenlief, clarinetist Ben Goldberg, bassists Trevor Dunn, and Todd Sickafoose, players who have each forged a singular path within and beyond the realm of jazz. While rooted in the San Francisco Bay Area scene, Amendola has woven a dense and far-reaching web of bandstand relationships that tie him to influential artists in jazz, blues, rock and new music. A potent creative catalyst, the Berkeley-based drummer is the nexus for a disparate community of musicians stretching from Los Angeles and Seattle to Chicago and New York. Whatever the context, Amendola possesses a gift for twisting musical genres in unexpected directions. Over a career spanning more than three decades, Amendola has forged deep ties across the country, and throughout the world. As an ambitious composer, savvy bandleader, electronics explorer, first-call accompanist, and capaciously creative foil for some of the world&#8217;s most inventive musicians, Amendola applies his wide-ranging rhythmic virtuosity to a vast array of settings.]]></description>

                                <description><![CDATA[Over the years, as an antidote to all the sappy,&#160;sentimental Christmas tunes we are all inundated with every holiday season, Maria Muldaur has collected some wonderfully hip, swinging, humorous&#160;&#38; irreverent Christmas songs by her favorite Jazz&#160; Blues artists. She and her "A Team" of some of the Bay Area's finest jazz players will be presenting her special&#160;HOLIDAY SWING&#160;show, for a fun evening of what Maria calls "Xmas&#160;Tunes for Hipsters." There will be no corny, overdone, pedestrian Christmas tunes here, only her special collection of rare gems! Don't miss this Holiday event! Maria Muldaur is best known world-wide for her 1974 mega-hit &#8220;Midnight at the Oasis,&#8221; which received several Grammy nominations, and enshrined her forever in the hearts of Baby Boomers everywhere; but despite her considerable pop music success, her 56-plus year career could best be described as a long and adventurous odyssey through the various forms of American Roots Music. During the Folk Revival of the early '60s, she began exploring and singing early Blues, Bluegrass and Appalachian &#8220;Old Timey&#8221; Music, beginning her recording career in 1963 with the Even Dozen Jug Band and shortly thereafter, joining the very popular Jim Kweskin Jug Band, touring and recording with them throughout the '60s. In the 48 years since &#8220;Midnight at the Oasis,&#8221; Maria has toured extensively worldwide and has recorded 43 solo albums covering all kinds of American Roots Music, including Gospel, R&#38;B, Jazz and Big Band (not to mention several award-winning children&#8217;s albums). She has now settled comfortably into her favorite idioms, Blues and what she calls &#8220;Bluesiana&#8221;- a gumbo of New Orleans flavored Blues, R&#38;B, and &#8220;Swamp Funk&#8221;. Often joining forces with some of the top names in the business, Maria has recorded and produced on-average an album per year, several of which have been nominated for Grammys and other awards.]]></description>

The Rock and Roll Playhouse, a family concert series hosted at historic music venues across the country, allows kids to &#8220;move, play and sing while listening to works from the classic-rock canon&#8221; (NY Times). Performing songs created by the most iconic musicians in rock history, The Rock and Roll Playhouse band offers its core audience of families with children age ten and under games, movement, stories and an opportunity to rock out in an effort to educate children and explore their creativity. The Rock and Roll Playhouse is an early and often first introduction to a child&#8217;s lifelong journey with live music and rock and roll. See you at the show!This concert for kids and families shares the music of Bob Marley with a new generation of music lovers, but is not associated with or endorsed by the artist. All children must be accompanied by a parent or adult caregiver.&#160;The Rock and Roll Playhouse knows that little ears are sensitive, so we turn down the volume at our shows. &#160;However, all kids experience music differently and you may find that your child is more comfortable wearing hearing protection earmuffs.Please note:&#160; By attending this event, you consent to your image (with or without your voice) being included in photographs and/or film and videotape of the event, and give the venue, The Rock and Roll Playhouse and their respective licensees and assigns the absolute and irrevocable right and permission to use and publish such content in any and all media, whether now known or hereafter developed. &#160; Sweetwater Music Hall Inc. is a non-profit 501(c)(3) organization that is fully devoted to advancing music education, understanding and appreciation and Bay Area music history, culture and arts.]]></description>

                                <description><![CDATA[Wildfires, floods, quarantine and isolation, protests, riots, and raising children who are coming into awareness of these issues all influenced Jon Chi as he wrote the words and music to his 3rd solo album, River of Marigolds. &#8220;How do you take struggle and adversity and turn that into hope and love?&#8221; is a central question on the album, Chi says. The Marin County-based songwriter, guitarist, and producer coalesces disparate styles here that he has explored on prior releases. Chi&#8217;s lyrics, at times dark and moody and at others hopeful, meld with a musical blend of spacious Americana and psychedelic soul. Much of the album features Dave Schools (Widespread Panic) on bass along with long-time rhythm collaborators John-Paul McLean and Jeremy Hoenig (Melvin Seals and JGB), Jordan Feinstein and Mike Emerson on keyboards, and pedal steel ace Dave Zirbel.&#160;&#160; &#160; Jon is the former frontman for the band Rainmaker who found their fans among the jamband and world music scene.&#160; The band&#8217;s second album, Long Slow Fade, reached #2 on the jambands.com radio chart and featured Grateful Dead drummer Mickey Hart. Chi has gone on to create two solo efforts, Just For Now and Another Rising Sun which were more focused, songwriter-style records. &#8220;I love both of those styles, and I think we blended them together really well on (River of Marigolds). I feel like we&#8217;re adding a little something new to the conversation.&#8221; &#160; While River of Marigolds is undeniably steeped in the challenges of today(&#8220;Toss us a tourniquet, send us a sage / We&#8217;ve been waiting on the wind to blow the other way&#8221;), it ultimately yields perspective and hope in lines like &#8220;She&#8217;s hanging on the hands of time, but don&#8217;t they have their way? / Let love and laughter rule your days&#8221; and invites you to &#8220;Raise a glass, come sing along / praise the earth that we&#8217;re all walking upon&#8221;.&#160; Chi started with 40 songs and culled them back to the 9 that were most cohesive.&#160; "There had to be an emotional thread that ran through the entire album," he says. The second half of the album is connected with seamless segues and there is an inviting mix of atmospheric Americana (&#8220;River of Marigolds and &#8220;Sweet Surrender&#8221;), gritty rock (&#8220;Road to Revival&#8221;), and driving soul (&#8220;Got to Give the Devil His Due&#8221; and &#8220;Cold Clear Winter&#8221;).&#160; &#160; &#160; Jon is also an engineer and producer and has collaborated with artists including guitar greats Ernest Ranglin, Robben Ford, and Paul Barerre of Little Feat, songwriting talents Jolie Holland and James Mercer of the Shins, and renowned session players Chris Chaney (Alanis Morisette), John Wesley McVicker Jr. (Sheila E, Usher), among many others. Chi&#8217;s songs have received major and college radio play, and have appeared in documentaries, commercials, and on NPR&#8217;s All Things Considered.&#160; His recordings have been described as &#8220;Musical magic&#8221; (Honest Tune Magazine) and &#8220;Moody and magnificent&#8221; (Liverpool Sound and Vision).&#160;]]></description>

Inspired by their love of the music of Jerry Garcia, the duo branches off on their own for occasional tours to celebrate Garcia&#8217;s timeless songs. &#8220;The project actually originated back stage at &#8216;Dusters shows where Travis and I would typically warm up with some fun Jerry songs&#8221; Falco explains. &#8220;At some point we just thought it would be fun to do it in public&#8221; &#160; They draw from Garcia&#8217;s solo material, his Grateful Dead catalogue as well as the Traditional songs Jerry loved to play. &#160; &#8220;Performing this music as a duo allows us to explore the songs and jam in a way that&#8217;s unique to playing as a Duo&#8221; Says Book. &#8220;We typically hear these songs in larger ensembles, but the songs done with just bass and guitar somehow make the music very interactive with the audience. It&#8217;s really a testament to the quality of the songwriting, and we like to put a spotlight on that aspect of Jerry. &#160;]]></description>

                                <description><![CDATA[Love always. Love forever. Love until the end of time. The Great Cosmic Playlist is testimony to the endurance of an emotion that is easy to conjure but hard to maintain. But for Larry Campbell and Teresa Williams, who have been coupled consciously since 1986, love is more than a pop song; they are the bards of the long term committed relationship. &#160; &#8220;As soon as I saw her, I knew she was the one,&#8221; says Larry. That epiphany occurred in a Manhattan rehearsal studio. Teresa, an actress and vocalist not long removed from Peckerwood Point, TN, had been pulled into a singing contest. Larry, the New York City native with a burgeoning reputation for his virtuosity on any instrument with strings, was brought in to play pedal steel guitar. &#8220;For me, it was love at first note,&#8221; she says. Together they went on to capture a greater prize. &#160; From the beginning, they shared a musical sensibility; Larry courted her with a Louvin Brothers mix tape. The more they played together, the deeper it grew. Whether it was Larry joining in on the music with Teresa&#8217;s family and neighbors under the tree where they were married (&#8220;Larry melded perfectly,&#8221; says Teresa), or Teresa belting bluegrass songs on the bus with Larry and the rest of Bob Dylan&#8217;s band as they traveled between gigs (&#8220;It was very fulfilling,&#8221; recalls Larry), the couple&#8217;s rapport grew richer. &#8220;I found a connection I had never experienced before,&#8221; says Larry. When Dylan&#8217;s manager, Jeff Kramer, suggested that they make hay with this natural duo, he expressed a thought that had been already brewing in Larry&#8217;s head. But Larry wasn&#8217;t ready. &#8220;I had to start seeing myself as a singer and songwriter before I could take that step.&#8221; The couple took another decade, much spent playing with Levon Helm and his band at his legendary Midnight Rambles in Woodstock, before Larry and Teresa elevated their rapport to the next level. &#160; All This Time is the couple&#8217;s fourth album since taking that leap, following Larry Campbell and Teresa Williams (2015), Contraband Love (2017), and Live at Levon&#8217;s (2023). All This Time , says Larry, &#8220;feels more intuitive to me than the earlier records, less experimental, evidence that we&#8217;ve grown more aware of who we are and what we have to offer.&#8221; What they offer, evidently, is an intensely romantic album. Songs like Desert Island Dreams, Ride With Me, The Way You Make Me Feel, and I Love You fairly burst with the joy of love, while others recognize love&#8217;s humbling power. &#8220;All I want, all I need, is right in front of me,&#8221; testifies one song. &#8220;I still tremble at your name,&#8221; says another. &#160; It&#8217;s not hard to recognize All This Time as a post-Covid album. Larry and Teresa had a hard pandemic. Before Teresa left for remote Tennessee to nurse her father through his last illness, Larry came down with a double-barreled blast of Covid, and Teresa was quarantined. Isolated in Woodstock before treatments had been developed, Larry struggled. &#8220;Teresa pulled me through,&#8221; he says. &#8220;I held his hand over the phone,&#8221; she offers. Teresa says Larry&#8217;s lyrics often help her decipher what&#8217;s on his mind, but it doesn&#8217;t always take a codebreaker to recognize the songs on this album as love letters sprouted in a harsh spring. &#8220;When you told me that you need me/ After all we&#8217;ve been through/ I still think about the love we have to give/ I think about you.&#8221;]]></description>

                                <description><![CDATA[Coffis Plays Petty returns to California for the first time since 2023; a specially curated evening of songs taken exclusively from the Tom Petty songbook performed by The Coffis Brothers. The Coffis Brothers will perform the songs and music that have so heavily influenced their sound since the band&#8217;s formation in 2011, touching on every corner of the Tom Petty catalog. No band contributed more to rock &#8217;n&#8217; roll than Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers, and The Coffis Brothers will pay tribute with a special evening of songs spanning Petty&#8217;s career.&#160; With two songwriters, six albums, and more than a thousand shows under their belt, The Coffis Brothers have earned their reputation as modern-day torchbearers of all-American rock &#38; roll. It's a sound caught halfway between amplified Americana, acoustic folk, roadhouse R&#38;B, and electrifying roots music, crafted by a pair of California-born siblings who've been sharing the stage since childhood, and the five piece band filled out by Kyle Poppen (guitar), Aidan Collins (bass), and Cory Graves (drums).]]></description>

The 10 piece band is&#160;comprised of veteran members of Bay Area bands such as Vinyl,&#160;Stymie &#38; the Pimp Jones Love Orchestra, The Right Time, Albino!, El&#160;Radio Fantastique, Jethro Jeremiah Band and more. Drawing equally&#160;from the original Jamaican first wave as well as the British second&#160;wave the band&#8217;s rootsy, upbeat sound leans heavily on vocal harmony&#160;and a three-piece horn section. Soul Ska has become a Northern&#160;California festival favorite, playing rousing sets at Sierra Nevada&#160;World Music Festival (Mendocino), Ocean Beach Fest (SF), Summer&#160;Arts &#38; Music (Humboldt), Fairfax Festival and more.]]></description>

                                <description><![CDATA[5th Annual Sweetwater Music Hall Fall Benefit Gala featuring iconic artist St. Vincent &#160; St. Vincent has been regarded as one of the most innovative and fascinating presences in modern music for nearly 20 years, constantly reinventing her audio and visual personae over the course of a kaleidoscopic catalog and winning six GRAMMY Awards along the way.&#160; &#160; This is an intimate, seated show with a very limited number of tickets available. &#160; &#160; &#160; Annie Clark made her recorded debut as St. Vincent in 2007 with Marry Me, quickly becoming&#160;regarded as one of the most innovative and fascinating presences in modern music. Her&#160;subsequent albums would include Actor (2009), Strange Mercy (2011), her self-titled fourth&#160;album and winner of the 2014 GRAMMY for Best Alternative Album. In 2017, her fifth album&#160;MASSEDUCTION would break St. Vincent into the U.S. and UK top 10s and win two more&#160;GRAMMYs (Best Rock Song for its title track, and Best Recording Package). 2021&#8217;s Daddy&#8217;s Home&#160;found St. Vincent channeling the hungover glamor and gritty sepia-toned soundtrack of 1970s&#160;downtown NYC to an ecstatic reception, ultimately winning her a second Best Alternative Album&#160;GRAMMY. Following a 2021-2022 global tour that reaffirmed St. Vincent&#8217;s status as one of live&#160;music's preeminent forces with headline appearances at the likes of the Hollywood Bowl and&#160;Radio City Music Hall, Clark would begin work on album number seven: Her first fully self-&#160;produced album (having co-produced every one of her previous efforts)&#8212;and third Best&#160;Alternative Album GRAMMY winner&#8212; All Born Screaming is St. Vincent at her most primal. &#160; Featuring Clark leading &#8220;a curated group of rippers&#8221; through the brawny &#8220;Broken Man&#8221; (her second Best Rock Song GRAMMY winner), infectious Best Alternative Performance GRAMMY- winning &#8220;Flea,&#8221; and mordant catwalk sashay through deafening assault of self-loathing that is &#8220;Big Time Nothing," All Born Screaming is equal parts spiritual desolation and rapturous acceptance. &#8220;If you&#8217;re born screaming, that&#8217;s a great sign,&#8221; says Clark, &#8220;because it means you&#8217;re breathing. You&#8217;re alive. My god. It&#8217;s joyous. And then it&#8217;s also a protest. We&#8217;re all born in protest in a certain way. It&#8217;s terrifying to be alive, it&#8217;s ecstatic to be alive. It&#8217;s everything.&#8221; &#160; . All tickets will be held at Will Call.&#160; Photo ID of purchaser is required for pick up. Tickets are not transferable. Two ticket limit per person.&#160; &#160; Sweetwater Music Hall is a registered 501(c)3 non profit organization; Tax ID #85-1994102. &#160;A portion of your ticket purchase for this event is a donation and is tax deductible per IRS guidelines.

                                <description><![CDATA[&#8220;Colorado singer-songwriter Emily Scott Robinson mixes folk and country with gorgeous, clear-eyed examinations of faith, hope and regret.&#8221; &#160;&#8212; NPR &#160; On her third album with Oh Boy Records, and her fifth since beginning her career a decade ago, Emily Scott Robinson once again unveils her mastery as a performer and storyteller. With her 2026 release Appalachia &#8212; recorded at Dreamland Recording Studios with Grammy-nominated producer Josh Kaufman &#8212; Robinson opens herself up to experimentation and sings in her crystal-clear voice about resilience, love, grief and hope. &#160; Robinson&#8217;s talent is no surprise to the music industry &#8212; she&#8217;s now a veteran touring artist, both at home and abroad. Her records Traveling Mercies (2019) and American Siren (2021) each landed high on Rolling Stone&#8217;s &#8220;Best Country and Americana Albums&#8221; and Stereogum&#8217;s &#8220;10 Best Country Albums&#8221; year-end lists. She&#8217;s been lauded by the Washington Post, Billboard, American Songwriter and No Depression, and earned the 19th spot on NPR&#8217;s &#8220;100 Best Songs of 2021&#8221; with her song &#8220;Let &#8216;Em Burn.&#8221; &#160; It was her 2020 release &#8220;The Time for Flowers,&#8221; an anthem of hope recorded at home in the midst of the global pandemic, that caught the attention of Oh Boy Records, the independent label founded by John Prine in 1981. Robinson jumped at the opportunity to join the free-spirited and beloved record label carrying on her hero&#8217;s legacy.&#160; &#160; Robinson believes the songs on Appalachia are the best she&#8217;s ever written &#8212; she sings about her grandmother slipping into dementia, a cash-only saloon full of characters, and gratitude for life, despite its hardships. The album features a duet with Grammy winner John Paul White that celebrates the kind of &#160;love that comes with scars and age, and a hymn for anyone who&#8217;s ever failed or fallen short. &#160; &#8220;There&#8217;s this thing I do with every record I make,&#8221; she says. &#8220;I knit a prayer into it, and I ask for all these songs to find their way to everyone who needs them. I ask these songs to be of service, to help people find and experience joy.&#8221;&#160;]]></description>

The Rock and Roll Playhouse, a family concert series hosted at historic music venues across the country, allows kids to &#8220;move, play and sing while listening to works from the classic-rock canon&#8221; (NY Times). Performing songs created by the most iconic musicians in rock history, The Rock and Roll Playhouse band offers its core audience of families with children age ten and under games, movement, stories and an opportunity to rock out in an effort to educate children and explore their creativity. The Rock and Roll Playhouse is an early and often first introduction to a child&#8217;s lifelong journey with live music and rock and roll. See you at the show!This concert for kids and families shares the music of Talking Heads with a new generation of music lovers, but is not associated with or endorsed by the artist. All children must be accompanied by a parent or adult caregiver.&#160;The Rock and Roll Playhouse knows that little ears are sensitive, so we turn down the volume at our shows. &#160;However, all kids experience music differently and you may find that your child is more comfortable wearing hearing protection earmuffs.Please note:&#160; By attending this event, you consent to your image (with or without your voice) being included in photographs and/or film and videotape of the event, and give the venue, The Rock and Roll Playhouse and their respective licensees and assigns the absolute and irrevocable right and permission to use and publish such content in any and all media, whether now known or hereafter developed. &#160; Sweetwater Music Hall Inc. is a non-profit 501(c)(3) organization that is fully devoted to advancing music education, understanding and appreciation and Bay Area music history, culture and arts.]]></description>

                                <description><![CDATA[The Anthony Paule Soul Orchestra was formed in San Francisco in 2007 by guitarist/bandleader Anthony Paule. Inspired by Soul and Blues music of the 1960s and &#8216;70s, this dramatic eight piece, horn driven powerhouse creates and records their original music, while staying deeply rooted in the origins of this African American art form. APSO&#8217;s riveting vocalist Willy Jordan, channels the raw vulnerability, and gritty, high-energy spirit of soul music. &#160; &#160;Relatable, empathetic songwriting; pure heart-sung vocals, and supportive, passionate instrumental performances form the backbone of this band. APSO has their own sound, but if comparisons must be made those which come to mind are Al Green, Bobby Bland, Bobby Womack, David Ruffin, Tyrone Davis, and the Stax &#38; Motown record labels. During their nineteen years together, APSO has recorded and released six singles and seven albums. The recordings earned twenty BMA (Blues Music Awards) nominations, as well as coveted positions on SiriusXM&#8217;s Bluesville, numerous radio playlists, and music critics&#8217; &#8220;best of&#8221; lists for Down Beat Magazine, and Living Blues Magazine. Anthony Paule recorded on Van Morrison&#8217;s 2026 release &#8220;Somebody Tried To Sell Me A Bridge&#8221;. In September, Anthony will be in London, performing his second residency with Van. APSO is currently promoting the release of their latest and very well received album &#8220;What Can We Do?&#8221; which was released July 24, 2026. Members of APSO are:Willy Jordan, vocals, songwriterAnthony Paule - guitar &#38; vocals, bandleaderTony Lufrano - keyboards, B3Bowen Brown - drumsTimm Walker - bass &#38; vocalsDerek James, tromboneRichard Benitez - trumpetCharles McNeal - tenor saxophone]]></description>

                                <description><![CDATA[Shakedown Citi is a fresh new force on the jam band scene, born in the heart of a Grateful Dead parking lot at Citi Field in 2023.&#160; When the band's members crossed paths on Shakedown Street, something clicked - and the music hasn't stopped since. &#160; Rather than imitating the Dead, Shakedown Citi channels their spirit - creating spontaneous, soulful performances that feel alive, adventurous and totally in the moment. Each set is a journey, full of unexpected twists, deep grooves and musical conversation that pulls even the most skeptical listener into the vibe.&#160; Every Shakedown Citi show begins long before the first note.&#160; Each setlist is thoughtfully and meticulously crafted from the Dead repertoire, affiliated catalogs and beyond, balancing deep cuts and beloved anthems, rarities and reprises.&#160; No two nights are ever the same - each performance stands as a work of art on its own, alive in its moment, while also fitting into the larger patchwork of the repertoire.&#160;&#160; &#160; It's not just a tribute - it's the Dead, reborn.]]></description>

                                <description><![CDATA[&#8220;A living, breathing, throat-singing, road-tested, avant-garde, one-man-band who is in a state of perpetual motion&#8230; gutsy, fuzzed-out, groove-laden psych rock.&#8221; &#8211; NPR &#160; &#8220;Bluesy guitar riffs, tenacious melodies and a singing voice both weathered and nimble. You don&#8217;t need to witness his physics-defying performance to be captivated; the music stands on its own&#8230; astonishing.&#8221;&#160; &#8211; WBUR Boston &#160; The Suitcase Junket &#8212; the intriguing songwriter/multi-instrumentalist Matt Lorenz &#8212; weds the sensibilities of early blues and rock &#8216;n&#8217; roll, the improvisational spirit of jazz, and his love of Tom Waits to meticulous, cultured songcraft. Dubbed a &#8220;master of musical imagination&#8221; by NPR&#8217;s World Caf&#233; Live and &#8220;astonishing&#8221; by WBUR Boston, Lorenz&#8217;s weathered, howl-flecked voice was described by Rochester City Newspaper as &#8220;a cross between Hound Dog Taylor and a Tuvan throat singer who has swallowed a bird.&#8221; &#160; Lorenz has earned snowballing acclaim for his achingly poetic dark folk.&#160; A solitary artist with an organic yet ornate vision, his seventh album To Go On is his most acutely profound yet. Created in the wake of losing his sister, singer-songwriter Kate Lorenz, it&#8217;s a tender, beautiful, and arrestingly moving record; an internal dialogue and conversation with the departed, enormously resonant to anyone who ever loved anyone. &#160; Jimbo Scott is a genre sprawling songwriter that attempts to fill all of the space available in Americana Music. With songs that jump from Country, to Rock, to Folk and Bluegrass to Soul, he offers a lush demonstration of rich story-telling dripping in premier vocal performance. &#160; Hailing from the San Francisco Bay Area and described by Tahoe Weekly as &#8220;Honest Honey-Eyed Americana&#8221;, Jimbo Scott casts reflections around the room, flashing from honest self-deprecation to cinematic retrospectives. &#160;Jimbo was recognized for his songwriting with his song, &#8220;Live Free&#8221; placing as a finalist and semi-finalist with the 2025 Great American Song Contest and the 2025 International Songwriting Competition, respectively. He has entertained audiences far and wide including the Hardly Strictly Bluegrass Festival, the Kate Wolf Music Festival, The Ten Mile Creek Revival, Whalerock, Strawberry Music Festival, and Salmonfest. Whether solo or with his progressive Americana band, Jimbo Scott and Yesterday&#8217;s Biscuits, Jimbo is a rising force in the West Coast Americana Scene, not to be missed and best to be consumed with reckless abandon.]]></description>

                                <description><![CDATA[Singer, songwriter, and humanitarian Etana is a powerhouse vocalist and 2X Grammy Award nominee. It's been over a decade since her debut as a reggae artist; she is now a recognized and respected entertainer in her native Jamaica and is also well known worldwide. Born Shauna McKenzie, the young talent migrated to the United States for the opportunity and briefly pursued a pop music career before rediscovering her roots as an adult and adopting the moniker Etana, &#8220;The Strong One&#8221; in Swahili. The return home spurred the evolution of her sound and is evident in her body of work expressed as the fusion of folk, soul, jazz, and reggae. Etana taps into the likes of Marcia Griffiths, Etta James, and Miriam Makeba for harnessing a deeply emotional sound, and she is the modern embodiment of their influence. &#160; In 2008 Etana debuted the album, The Strong One, featuring various musicians and producers. The project reached the #12 spot on the Reggae Billboard chart, and consecutively released singles released by VP Records, which helped to introduce the spirited singer to the world. Lyrical hits &#8220;Warrior Love&#8221; and &#8220;I Am Not Afraid&#8221; made a lasting impression, as did &#8220;Free&#8221; and &#8220;Happy Heart&#8221; from the second album Free Expressions, notably a repeat Reggae Billboard chart climber. Not to be outdone, she released her fourth album I Rise to much acclaim, nabbing the #1 spot on the iconic chart, marking the first female artist out of Jamaica to earn such a designation seventeen years. &#160; Fast forward to 2018, Etana was nominated for the 61st Annual Grammy Awards for Reggae Forever in the Best Reggae Album category. The project was co-produced by Etana (Freemind Music) and distributed by Tad's Records. The distinction by The Recording Academy marked the first time in over twenty years that a woman was designated that bracket. In 2019, she released the eight-track EP Dimensions, then a full-length album Gemini released in 2020, Her latest album Pamoja (2021) earned Etana her 2nd Grammy Nomination, the album features from Vybz Kartel, Damian Marley, and Stonebwoy. &#160;]]></description>

He wrote his way through a writing degree, a teaching degree, and years of high school English classes filled with unruly brilliance, all while making records and playing shows whenever he could. Eventually, he left teaching to follow the same dream he encouraged his students to chase. After releasing Thank God We Left the Garden, he recorded Alive July 25, 2025, a no-edits live album captured in Portland with Sam Weber. Jeffrey tours full time now, still missing teaching like an old friend he&#8217;ll meet again. &#160; Sam Weber&#160;is a Canadian singer-songwriter, guitarist, music producer and recording engineer.

                                <description><![CDATA[Since their formation in Carteret, New Jersey in 1980, The Smithereens have earned a reputation as one of America&#8217;s most enduring rock bands. Founding members Pat DiNizio (vocals/guitar), Jim Babjak (guitar/vocals), Mike Mesaros (bass/vocals), and Dennis Diken (drums/vocals) built a distinctive sound rooted in the melodic punch of the British Invasion, fused with the raw energy of American garage rock. The result was a catalog of timeless songs that continue to resonate with audiences worldwide. &#160; The band&#8217;s breakthrough came with the 1986 release of Especially for You, featuring the modern rock classics &#8220;Blood and Roses&#8221; and &#8220;Behind the Wall of Sleep.&#8221; Critical acclaim and radio success soon followed with Green Thoughts (1988) and 11 (1989), albums that delivered charting singles including &#8220;Only a Memory,&#8221; &#8220;A Girl Like You,&#8221; and &#8220;Too Much Passion.&#8221; Throughout the late 1980s and 1990s, The Smithereens became fixtures on MTV, college radio, and mainstream rock stations, while touring extensively with artists such as Tom Petty, Lou Reed, and The Pretenders. &#160; Celebrated for their muscular live performances, The Smithereens have always stayed true to their roots while expanding their reach. Their body of work includes not only original material but also acclaimed tributes to their musical heroes, including full-length homages to The Beatles and The Who, affirming their place in the lineage of classic rock. &#160; Following the passing of frontman Pat DiNizio in 2017, Babjak, Mesaros, and Diken made the decision to honor his memory by continuing to perform and record. Joined by guest vocalists such as Robin Wilson (Gin Blossoms), John Cowsill (from the Cowsills &#38; Beach Boys) and Marshall Crenshaw, the band continues to bring their celebrated songs to both longtime fans and new generations.&#160; The band&#8217;s latest album is THE LOST ALBUM featuring previously unreleased sessions with Pat DiNizio.]]></description>

                                <description><![CDATA[Hailing from Oakland, California, The Humidors have been churning out their own unique brand of party music for over a decade. Combining elements of hard-hitting funk, greasy soul, vintage R&#38;B, soul jazz, and more you can be sure that this eight-piece unit is committed to the groove in all its shapes and forms. Consisting of some of the best Bay Area musicians and led by the heartfelt lead vocals of Tori Roze, The Humidors have established themselves over their tenure as one of the West Coast's premier funk &#38; soul bands and are committed to spreading the Gospel of Funk to dance floors everywhere. Having shared the stage with acts such as Dumpstaphunk, The New Mastersounds, The Meters' Leo Nocentelli, Shuggie Otis, and the late, great Bernie Worrell, The Humidors are in their element on stage. Bursts and washes of B3, punchy horns, chugging percussion, thumping bass, and burning guitar leads all interweave in an infectious polyrhythmic stew. &#160; In the world of music, the term &#8220;fusion&#8221; tends to raise eyebrows. Yet, the sonic explorers of Seattle octuplet Cytrus have spent the last three years crafting a debut that draws deftly from a broad melodic palette, melding distinct stylistic threads into a cohesive creative voice. Relax, and the grooves will flow through your soul. Concentrate, and you&#8217;ll find yourself tumbling through an immaculately constructed alternate reality when melody and rhythm dance hand in hand through spacetime.&#160; Shaped by Jared Squires (guitar/vocals), Luke Nevills (bass/keys), Brandon Hailey (saxophone), Owen Mayo (keys/guitar), Trevor Church (drums), Alex Dean (synth/keys), Sean Connelly (vocals/keys), and Connor Merritt (aux percussion), Cytrus mines psychedelic funk, disco, electronic, rock, soul, hip-hop. Flowing through kaleidoscopic transitions, the band&#8217;s juicy synths and brass-powered grooves coalesce into an undeniable, hypnotic wall of sound.]]></description>

                                <description><![CDATA[The sound of Wolf Jett will make you dance, sing&#8230; and possibly even howl!&#160; &#160; Their all-original songs infuse folk, soul and Americana into what they call "Cosmic Mountain Music.&#8221; Co-founded by two life-long friends and musical partners, Wolf Jett combines the southern-fried vocals and guitar of Tennessee-born frontman Chris Jones with Jon Payne&#8217;s endlessly groovy drums. Currently performing with Duncan Shipton (bass), Allyson Makuch (vocals), Rory Cloud (guitar), and Alex Benjamin (keys/percussion). &#160; Chris and Jon formed Wolf Jett in early 2020. The &#8216;Jett&#8217; comes from his maternal grandfather&#8217;s last name, and is a tribute to his family&#8217;s legacy. Just before the scheduled release of their debut album the world was hit by pandemic and all tours were cancelled, so they constructed an analog studio at Jon&#8217;s residence called &#8220;House on a Hill" in Boulder Creek, CA. Tragically, CZU Lightning fires ripped through Big Basin State Park in August of that year, consuming the house and studio along with it. Their story was featured in SF Chronicle, Oakland Tribune, San Jose Mercury, and Santa Cruz Sentinel. Seeing an opportunity to bring healing energy to their community, they recorded an emotionally-charged live performance of their song "Garden of Pain" among the ashes and rubble of where their home once stood with the help of friends The T Sisters, which was featured on several streaming fundraisers to help raise much-needed donations for thousands of fire victims. &#160; They have performed with California Honeydrops, Allen Stone, Cedric Burnside, Fruition, The Brothers Comatose, AJ Lee &#38; Blue Summit, Shiny Ribs, and Mother Hips. Their albums feature Jason Crosby (Jackson Browne), Stelth Ulvang (Lumineers), James Deprato (Chuck Prophet), and Eric Yates (Hot Buttered Rum). Currently in Radio rotation on local CA stations KPIG, KZSC, KRML, KBCZ, KSQD, as well as WNCW in North Carolina and WDVX in Tennessee. &#160; Sqwerv's roots run deep in the Denver music scene. Those roots began to take hold as the band started hosting local open jams and playing gigs at small bars and venues in 2017. Since then, Sqwerv has become a staple in Denver's music scene with bands like Magic Beans, Squeaky Feet, Eminence Ensemble and Rado. &#160; This four-piece Indie-Psych Rock band's love for classic rock, psychedelic music and improvisation creates a sound that is refreshingly original and exciting. Sqwerv realizes the importance of good songwriting and is always pushing themselves in the improvisation. The band spends a great deal of time writing lyrics, composing, and developing song structure that has grown into a catalogue that ranges from twelve minute prog songs inspired by Homer's Odyssey to two minute psych songs about love. They are fiercely driven to get to those transcendent, improvised spaces that all jam-music lovers crave. Sqwerv continues to deliver to their audiences through groove, counterpoint, polyrhythms and risk taking. &#160; In the last two years the band has released two studio albums, three live albums and completed two national tours with no plans on stopping. They have had the opportunity to open for acts like Lespecial, Spafford, Eggy and Big Something. They hold themselves to a rigorous tour schedule playing unique shows for their fans on a regular basis. Sqwerv leans into the dark and the beautiful while thriving off of the sounds they create and connections they make.]]></description>

                                <description><![CDATA[&#8220;The music may be pure old time Celtic, but the drive and enthusiasm are akin to straight ahead rock and roll.&#8221;&#160; &#160; &#160; &#160; - Winnipeg Free Press &#160; "An especially eloquent mixture of the old and the new."&#160; &#160; - New York Times &#160; Born of a session in Paisley, Scotland, and named for the town's historic weaving industry and local poet laureate Robert Tannahill, the Tannahill Weavers have made an international name for their special brand of Celtic music, blending the beauty of traditional melodies with the power of modern rhythms.&#160; As one of the world's premier traditional Celtic bands, their diverse repertoire spans the centuries with fire-driven instrumentals, topical songs, original ballads and lullabies, and humorous tales of life in Scotland. &#160; Over the years the Tannies have been trailblazers for Scottish music, and their tight harmonies and powerful, inventive arrangements have won them fans from beyond the folk and Celtic music scenes.&#160; In 2011 the band was inducted into the Scottish Traditional Music Hall of Fame, and in 2018 they released their highly acclaimed 50th Anniversary album &#210;rach ("Golden" in Gaelic) on award-winning label Compass Records, followed by the well loved Celtic holiday celebration Solstice in 2024.&#160; &#160; As they approach their 58th anniversary, the Tannahill Weavers are firmly established as one of the premier groups on the concert stage. From reflective ballads to footstomping reels and jigs, the variety and range of the material they perform is matched only by their enthusiasm and lively Celtic spirits. &#160; "Formed from a Paisley pub session in 1968, seminal trailblazers the Tannahill Weavers now also rank as national treasures."&#160; &#160; &#160; &#160; &#160; &#160; &#160; &#160; &#160; &#160; &#160; &#160; &#160; &#160; &#160; &#160; &#160; &#160; &#160;-Glasgow Celtic Connections]]></description>

                                <description><![CDATA[In 2026, Horse Feathers&#8217; debut album, Words Are Dead, celebrates its 20th anniversary. Kill Rock Stars is set to release a deluxe reissue that will be completely remastered and pressed on an exclusive vinyl color. It will include a replica of their original six-song demo CD in the package, along with a deluxe foil-stamped LP jacket. &#160; To support the release, Horse Feathers&#8217; current ensemble of Justin Ringle (guitar, vocals, banjo), Nathan Crockett (violin, saw), Halli Anderson of River Whyless (violin, vocals), Kati Claborn of Blind Pilot (banjo, vocals, clarinet), and Luke Ydstie also of Blind Pilot (bass, cello, vocals) faithfully recreate the mood of the original release with taut dynamics and sensitive arrangements. &#160; In the years following Words Are Dead, Horse Feathers quietly built a body of work defined by patience and evolution rather than reinvention. Records like House With No Home, Thistled Spring, and Cynic&#8217;s New Year expanded their sonic palette without abandoning the restraint that fi rst set them apart. By the time of Appreciation, the band had begun to open its sound outward, introducing richer arrangements and a subtle warmth that suggested growth without rupture. Through it all, Ringle remained a steady center, writing songs that favored emotional precision over spectacle. &#160; The reissue of Words Are Dead does not attempt to rewrite that history. Instead, it brings the origin point back into focus, offering a rare chance to hear where it all began while recognizing how far the project has traveled since. &#160; Revisiting the album now, with two decades of distance, reveals not just a beginning but a foundation. The same careful interplay, the same attention to space and tone, still anchors the band&#8217;s work today. In that sense, the reissue feels less like a retrospective and more like a continuation. A reminder that some records do not age so much as they wait for the right moment to be heard again. &#160; The Hackles are a folk collaboration from Astoria, Oregon, the oldest settlement west of the Rockies, where the Columbia River meets the Pacific Ocean. &#160; The trio of Kati Claborn, Luke Ydstie, &#38; Halli Anderson are slated to release their fourth full-length album I&#8217;ve Got Sugar, Who&#8217;s My Neighbor? in the fall 2026 on Jealous Butcher Records.&#160; The album was recorded primarily live at The Rope Room Studio in Astoria and departs from their previous two albums, A Dobritch Did as a Dobritch Should (2019) &#38; What a Beautiful Thing I Have Made (2023), in its&#8217; aim to capture the intimacy &#38; energy of their live shows.&#160;&#160; &#160; &#160; &#160; Kati and Luke originally met as members of the band Blind Pilot (with whom they continue to play), and songs written and gigs played in the downtime between tours formed the seed of what would become The Hackles. They met Halli when her band River Whyless toured with Blind Pilot in 2016.&#160; The trio started playing together when Halli moved to Astoria from Asheville, North Carolina, and Luke and Kati recruited her to play on The Hackles&#8217; first album, The Twilight&#8217;s Calling it Quits (2018).&#160; &#160; &#160; &#160;Powerful harmonies &#38; an unconventional &#38; nuanced use of guitar, violin, banjo &#38; clarinet combine to create a compelling &#38; unique brand of folk that lies somewhere between Appalachia and Topanga Canyon. Their songs are imbued with compassion, humor &#38; a dark honesty. &#160;]]></description>

                                <description><![CDATA[How to honor the legacy of a band deemed sacred? To tread on holy ground is perilous, and must be done with the intent and spirit of a disciple&#8212;Pay attention to the intricacies of the magic, explore the far ends of the innovation, strive for ever-growing ability, and let the purity of the love for the music drive it all.Drummer Clementine is the founding member of ZEPPARELLA. From the beginning of her musical career, her goal has been to be onstage every night. The pursuit of that goal has led Clementine to constantly tour the US and Europe in projects as diverse as Bottom, AC/DShe, The House Of More, The Solid, Francis Bakin, Stars Turn Me On and Beaux Cheveux. She tackles the best rock drumming ever written with her own emotionally powerful style, bringing the Motown influence of the Bonham groove to the forefront. The profound musical connection established with Gretchen Menn (guitar), Holly West (bass), and Anna Kristina (vocals) creates the bond required to do this great music justice.It was under the tutelage of classical guitarist Phillip DeFremery, a student of Andr&#233;s Segovia, that guitarist Gretchen Menn began her path on the instrument. Playing with tireless passion and constantly seeking out new challenges, her projects are often unconventional, genre-bending expressions combining elements of classical, rock, progressive, jazz, and metal. On influences, Gretchen has never tired of her initial inspirations&#8212;Eric Johnson, Steve Morse, Frank Zappa, and Jeff Beck. But she has loved Jimmy Page&#8217;s guitar playing longer than she has played the guitar. It was through the music of Led Zeppelin that she found a gateway into music that resonated deeply with her, creating a love for guitar-oriented music, and, ultimately, the guitar.Bassist Holly West began her musical journey full-steam ahead, and more recently than her stellar playing belies. Her unstoppable will and drive have truly propelled her to this moment and her place in the powerhouse Zepparella. A self-taught bass player, she is also a blossoming vocalist with rich rock pipes. Her time on stage has been well spent, developing an impressive attack, impeccable feel, and a technique which seems to have come completely naturally to her, not to mention her dazzling stage presence and joyful performance style. Her influences span the rock gauntlet, from Clutch and the Rival Sons to Slash, ZZ Top, and of course, the mighty Zeppelin.Singer Anna Kristina is a soulful, fiery, and rocking vocal powerhouse who has stepped into Zepparella&#8217;s Plant spot for a second time. Anna was with the band for 5 years, became known for her performance in the band&#8217;s 15 million-view &#8220;When The Levee Breaks&#8221; video, took a 6-year hiatus, and now returns in 2018 to front the band. Her career has spanned acoustic, jazz, soul, rock, and her charisma and power delivers captivating performances every night. About her brilliant harp playing she says: &#8220;getting a chance to blow on the harmonica is an added bonus! Plant isn&#8217;t just a singer he&#8217;s a musician. He brings his blues background and natural percussive feel to his harmonica playing as well and I love getting lost in that. Playing the harp allows me to express on a whole different level and it&#8217;s so freeing.&#8221;Now more than ever, Zepparella explores their own improvised magic within the framework of Zeppelin&#8217;s mighty songs!]]></description>

                                <description><![CDATA[Yellowwood Junction is where poetic lyricism meets lush instrumentation&#8212;an indie folk-rock band that thrives at the intersection of introspection and groove. Known for their haunting harmonies, evocative melodies, and magnetic live performances, the band crafts songs that feel both cinematic and deeply personal. &#160; Rooted in storytelling but untethered by genre, Yellowwood Junction blends elements of folk, rock, soul, and a touch of psychedelia to create a sound that&#8217;s entirely their own. Their music explores the edges of love, longing, transformation, and resilience&#8212;inviting listeners on a journey through emotional landscapes as vivid as they are raw. &#160; Born from friendship, late-night creative sparks, and a shared obsession with honest music, Yellowwood Junction is less about labels and more about connection&#8212;between bandmates, between sound and soul, and between the music and everyone who finds themselves in it. &#160; YellowWood Junction was formed in San Francisco in the Summer of 1993&#160; This six piece band toured extensively, building a solid audience in Colorado, Washington, Oregon and California. They were voted one of the Bay Area's most promising un-signed bands by KFOG in 1994. Music Available on iTunes, Spotify, and more.&#160;]]></description>

                                <description><![CDATA[Eamonn Flynn forges his own brand of Irish soul. The Dublin-born singer-songwriter/pianist got his start with The Commitments, a hit film about an Irish soul band, and has since worked with American blues and R&#38;B stars Elvin Bishop, Maria Muldaur, Evelyn Champagne King, Michael Franti &#38; Spearhead, Zigaboo Modeliste (The Meters), The Ray Charles Project, and many more. He also kept a hand in Irish music playing with Shay and Michael Black and Finbar Furey and has played piano and organ for many years at San Francisco's Glide Memorial Church. &#160; Flynn's new quartet DUBLINESQUE brings his deep soul and gospel roots together with the Irish music traditions he was raised on. &#160; "Dublinesque is my attempt to recreate the kind of parties we had in my parents' house, growing up in Dublin," explains Flynn. "There'd be neighbours and friends, and it would always end up as a sing-song/jam session. Everyone would participate - if you couldn't hold a tune, you'd perform a 'recitation' or tell a joke! &#160; "There was never any delineation between genres of music - whether it was Irish tunes and ballads, soul music, or a Beatles song," he emphasizes. &#160; The band brings together three talented Bay Area Irish traditional musicians: fellow Irishman F&#233;lim Egan (The Black Brothers) on accordion, local favorite Darcy Noonan on fiddle, and from the Basque Country, Spain, Hector Bragado on banjo. "This is my chance to play with some of my favorite musicians and recreate those parties!" says Flynn. &#160;]]></description>

                                <description><![CDATA[Born Jepther Washington McClymont, the reggae artist &#8220;Luciano&#8221; has long reigned as the king of &#8220;conscious&#8221; reggae music. Living in Jamaica, Luciano was influenced by reggae icons such as Bob Marley and drawn to the positive message of the &#8220;one love movement&#8221;. Dubbed &#8220;Luciano&#8221; in reference to a comparison to the clear soaring vocals of Luciano Pavarotti, his voice resonates with impeccable intonation and pitch. &#160; Luciano paired with producer Freddy McGregor to record for his &#8220;Big Ship&#8221; label. This resulted in his first solid mark on the charts in the UK with a cover of Cheryl Lyn&#8217;s R &#38; B hit &#8220;Shake it Up Tonight&#8221;. As this song hit the #1 position, his name began circulating amongst reggae producers like Phillip &#8220;Fattis&#8221; Burrell and the result was his 1993 recording &#8220;Moving Up&#8221; on the Xterminator label that was released to critical acclaim through VP Records. It was not long after, that the founder of Island Records, Chris Blackwell, (known for signing artists from Bob Marley to U2) took note and signed him to the now defunct Island/Mango record label. His 1995 recording &#8220;Where There is Life&#8221; swept across the world producing a string of number 1 hits such as &#8220;It&#8217;s Me Again Jah&#8221;, &#8220;Lord Give Me Strength&#8221;, &#8220;Your World and Mine&#8221; and &#8220;Who Could It Be&#8221;. &#160; What makes Luciano a unique artist in the reggae world is his ability to cross over from the dancehall to the roots audience, leaving no one behind with his brilliance. From early on, he began touring extensively throughout the world, taking his live show on the road. From Japan to Africa, throughout Australia, the UK and the United States, there isn&#8217;t a person who loves reggae that isn&#8217;t familiar with the name Luciano &#8211; fondly called &#8220;The Messenger&#8221;. Aside from the traditional venues, in 2014, Luciano was a featured performer with the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra in the Netherlands, another nod to his incredible talents as a songwriter and performer. &#160; Luciano has received many awards and accolades over the years. In 2001 the VP recording of the album, &#8220;A New Day&#8221; was nominated for a Reggae Grammy &#8482;; in a show of national pride in 2007 the Jamaican government awarded him the Order of Distinction (an award rendered for outstanding and important services to Jamaica &#8211; in his particular case, an honor in the field of entertainment). Other awards include receiving the &#8220;Key to Kansas City&#8221; and in 2015, being honored by a &#8220;Luciano Day&#8221; in Hartford, Connecticut. Most recently, Luciano has also received a second Grammy&#8482; nomination for &#8220;Best Reggae Album&#8221; at the 2016 Awards. &#160; As a prolific recording artist, he has released or been included in at least 40 albums and when asked how has he recorded so many songs, Luciano replied, &#8220;How can you stop a bird from singing?&#8221; This is a fitting response from a singer who constantly gives his all.]]></description>

                                <description><![CDATA[Don Carlos (born Euvin Spencer) Legendary Reggae Artist was born and raised in one of the most deprived regions of Western Kingston, Jamaica, in a district notoriously known as Waterhouse, which incidentally is also a musical spawning ground for many of Reggae&#8217;s greatest ever talents, such as King Tubby, Black Uhuru, The Jays, Junior Reid and King Jammy, to name but a few.&#160;Don&#160;Carlos started his singing career in 1973 as one of the original members of Black Uhuru, alongside other founding members, Garth Dennis who later went on to joining the Wailing Souls, and Derrick Ducky Simpson. After the Black Uhuru stretch,&#160;Don&#160;joined forces with the California based Reggae Angels, who backed him for four years and subsequently evolved into his own band called Dub Vision. He also has been working as a special guest with Slightly Stoopid for many years doing a number of the songs and appearences with them through the years.&#160;Don&#8216;s popularity continues to increase and grow.&#160; &#160;He is now one of the most demanded roots reggae artists in the business and still tours today.&#160; Check out the&#160;Tour Dates to see Don when he comes to your city. &#160;]]></description>

                                <description><![CDATA[Recorded live to tape in just two days, Robert Ellis&#8217;s exquisite new album, Yesterday&#8217;s News, is as stripped-down as it gets, with the celebrated songwriter and producer&#8217;s delicate, reedy tenor accompanied only by nylon string guitar, upright bass, and the occasional piece of handheld percussion. The arrangements are harmonically sophisticated here, drawing on the open tunings and intricate fingerpicking of English songwriters like Nick Drake or Richard Thompson, and Ellis&#8217;s performances are similarly subtle and nuanced, tapping into the bittersweet longing of Chet Baker and the playful poignancy of Bill Evans and Jim Hall. &#160; While that might seem surprising coming off 2019&#8217;s raucous Texas Piano Man, subverting expectations is nothing new for Ellis. Born and raised outside Houston, he gained early acclaim for his piercing introspection and absorbing narratives, but over the course of five solo albums, he flirted with everything from Paul Simon and John Prine to Elton John and Joni Mitchell in a series of sonic and visual transformations that ran the gamut from Redneck Steely Dan to Lone Star Liberace. NPR hailed his &#8220;musical daring and impeccable songcraft,&#8221; while Rolling Stone praised his &#8220;sharp eye for storytelling,&#8221; and the New York Times lauded his writing as an emotional &#8220;gut punch.&#8221; &#160; Yesterday&#8217;s News marks Ellis&#8217;s debut LP for Niles City Records, an outgrowth of the famed Niles City Sound studio he and longtime collaborator Josh Block run in Fort Worth, TX. &#160;]]></description>

                                <description><![CDATA[Born, raised, shaped, and inspired by his hometown of New Orleans, Louisiana, Andrew Duhon tours performing songs that are as much about recognizing our shared stories as they are about telling his own. Rounding out the touring trio are two of his most trusted collaborators&#8212;Myles Weeks(James Hunter Six, Eric Lindell) on bass and Jim Kolacek (Feufollett) on drums.&#160; Blending the gritty, bluesy, folksy, country sounds of his home with the experience of traversing the country and immersing himself in the broad array of cultures across the American landscape, Andrew&#8217;s music creates real connection between former strangers through song. As he puts it,&#8220;When a song written by a stranger heals you, even in the smallest way, that's a connection beyond entertainment.&#8221;&#160; &#160; &#160; Andrew has shared stages with Guster, Blind Pilot, and Amos Lee, among others, and has performed at major festivals across the US including New Orleans Jazz &#38; Heritage Festival, Milwaukee Summerfest, Bonnaroo, and Americanafest. &#160; His music has been featured in Rolling Stone Magazine, Jam In The Van, Meat Church, as well as in Glide Magazine, No Depression, and American Songwriter.]]></description>

                                <description><![CDATA[After thirty years as one of the world&#8217;s leading Celtic Rock bands, The Young Dubliners have begun work on their tenth studio album (with longtime producer Irish-born Tim Boland) while still maintaining their busy tour schedule. &#160;They have returned to the road post-pandemic stronger than ever and determined to bring their fusion of Celtic and rock music to as many people as they can. &#160; The band is Keith Roberts (vocals / guitar), Chas Waltz (Violin, keys, vocals), Justin Pecot (guitar, vocals), Dave Ingraham (drums) and Ethan Jones (bass guitar). With a batch of incredible new songs and an undeniable energy, the band is excited to bring their show to festivals, theaters and clubs around the world. &#160; &#8220;We want to be the band who reminds the world how important a good gig can be to our sanity after what we&#8217;ve all been through,&#8221; says Roberts. &#160; For only the second time the band is looking to its fans to finance the album instead of a traditional record company. &#160; &#8220;The business has changed so much over our lifetime that it no longer makes sense for us to take money from a label and then owe it all back,&#8221; adds Roberts. &#8220;Making all our supporters co-producers is a far more rewarding way to make a record and allows us to maintain control all the way&#8221;. &#160; &#160; The Young Dubliners have released nine albums to date. &#160;In recent years, the band has appeared twice on ABC&#8217;s Jimmy Kimmel Live, had songs featured in TV shows (Sons Of Anarchy, Human Target) and toured extensively as a headliner and as the opener for such a diverse list of artists as Collective Soul, Jethro Tull, Johnny Lang, Los Lobos and Chris Issak. &#160; Although the Young Dubliners sound is most commonly called Celtic Rock, that label can often be misleading. The Irish influence is certainly there, but it&#8217;s not the only influence that bursts through on their albums or live shows. After all, several of the band members have no Irish roots of any kind. &#160; &#160; &#8220;That was always the idea,&#8221; Roberts said. &#160;&#8220;The sound was intended to be a hybrid because we all come from different backgrounds. Even though I am from Ireland, a lot of the music I listened to growing up wasn&#8217;t Irish at all, but when I got here, I got homesick and developed a new appreciation for Irish Music. In truth the Celtic riffs can just as easily come from the American band members. Everyone writes now so you never know what you&#8217;ll end up with.&#8221;&#160;]]></description>

                                <description><![CDATA[One night in the middle of the night there were a series of noises coming from above which lead to a series of thoughts. It sounded like something was working. Building something&#8230; A nest for its family? A trap for its prey? This led to more thoughts about unseen things at work. A God? A voice in your head? It all feels kind of made up until someone responds to it.&#160;&#160; Less means more. That&#8217;s kind of always how it&#8217;s been with us. This time the rules were simple: we can only use what we work with live and whatever we put down on tape must be accomplishable on a stage in a live setting. That&#8217;s always seemed to be when we&#8217;re at our best. Or most twitchy. Many times we&#8217;ve made records that we loved and then, after figuring out how we&#8217;d perform it live, we end up falling in love with the live arrangement because being a 2 piece band, it took some real risk and struggle which led to innovation, which gave it a whole new life. (Consider the tortured grape.) So with this one we just started there and worked backwards. The result encapsulates, more than anything we&#8217;ve done before, the sound of our live performance. Resulting in what one might consider by definition, a definitive album.&#160;&#160; &#160;]]></description>

                                <description><![CDATA[Southern Culture On The Skids has been consistently recording and touring around the world since 1983. The band (Rick Miller &#8211; guitar and vocals, Mary Huff &#8211; bass and vocals, Dave Hartman &#8211; drums) has been playing together for over 30 years. Their musical journey has taken them from all-night North Carolina house parties to late night TV talk shows (Conan O&#8217;Brien, The Tonight Show), from performing at the base of Mt. Fuji in Japan to rockin&#8217; out for the inmates at North Carolina correctional facilities. They&#8217;ve shared a stage with many musical luminaries including Link Wray, Loretta Lynn, Hasil Adkins and Patti Smith. Their music has been featured in movies and TV, parodied by Weird Al, and used to sell everything from diamonds to pork sausage. In 2014 the band was honored by the Southern Folklife Collection at the University of North Carolina Chapel Hill with an exhibition featuring their music and cultural contributions. Their legendary live shows are a testament to the therapeutic powers of foot-stomping, butt-shaking rock and roll and what Rolling Stone dubbed &#8220;a hell raising rock and roll party.&#8221; &#160; At Home with Southern Culture on the Skids is the latest full length album from the band and was released in March of 2021. It was recorded during the stay at home period of the pandemic when the band was at home and not touring. The album consists of 11 tracks recorded and mixed in Rick Miller&#8217;s living room with some additional tracks recorded at his studio, The Kudzu Ranch. &#160; The first radio single off the album is &#8220;Run Baby Run&#8221;&#8212;a rocking number with deep garage roots. SCOTS bassist Mary Huff provides an urgent vocal while the band pulls back the throttle on a full race fuzz fest&#8212;cause she&#8217;s gotta to go fast! Run Baby Run! &#160; The other songs on the album are a combination of the band&#8217;s unique mix of musical genres: rock and roll, surf, folk and country&#8212;all a bit off-center, what Rick proudly calls &#8220;our wobbly Americana&#8221;. Rick goes on, &#8220;We put a few more acoustic guitars on this one, as you would expect if you recorded in your living room, but it still rocks like SCOTS. So put your headphones on, get in your favorite chair/sofa/recliner, put on &#8220;At Home With&#8221; and let&#8217;s hang out for a while.&#8221; &#160; Guitar riffs as lumpy as a camel, rough as a jackhammer or smooth and bright as Tennessee sippin&#8217; whiskey, all slung loose and loud over salacious beats - No Depression &#160; For over thirty years, Southern Culture On The Skids have played an eclectic range of Americana including rockabilly, surf rock, country and R&#38;B, with a punk edge and heaps of humor. They are known for their legendary live shows and wacky antics...But it&#8217;s more than just great fun; they are fantastic musicians to boot. - Elmore Magazine &#160; This Chapel Hill-based trio is flat-out amazing. Without resorting to needless flash or attention-hungry showboating, Miller in particular is one of the most spectacularly gifted guitar players I&#8217;ve ever seen. He juggles a lot of styles &#8211; country, garage rock, surf, rockabilly and soul to name just a few. - Stomp &#38; Stammer]]></description>

                                <description><![CDATA[Henry Diltz's work as an iconic photographer in the 1960s and 1970s is celebrated for his unique "fly on the wall" style portraits and his ability to capture intimate moments with some of the world's most influential musicians. &#160; &#8220;I was a musician before I was a photographer,&#8221; says Henry Diltz. &#8220;So I started out photographing my friends who then all happened to became famous!&#8221; &#160; Diltz was the official photographer at the historic Woodstock Music festival in 1969, 1994, &#38; 1999. He has shot over 250 album covers and continues to document the music scene in Southern California. Henry has recently been recognized with Lifetime Achievement Awards from the Grammys, the Lucie&#8217;s, the International Photography Hall of Fame, Abbey Road Studios, &#38; the American Society of Photographers. &#160; &#160; &#8220;What I do is instinctive, quiet and naturalistic. I want to document unobtrusively. I want to see who people really are-- I frame up the situation and then I push the button. I always want it to look exactly the way it looks to me... Years ago, Harrison Ford said &#8216;Henry, you have a framing jones.&#8217; I thought, &#8216;That&#8217;s it. I do!&#8217;&#8221; &#160; &#160;]]></description>

                                <description><![CDATA[The Seeds remain amongst the most beloved and iconographic of the original 1960s&#160;garage-psych avatars. To many, their edgy dissonant sounds and relentless fuzz-fuelled&#160;drive, tinged with flights of psychedelic fancy, make The Seeds the quintessential&#160;exponent of the genre, as heard on such classics-for-the-ages as &#8216;Pushin&#8217; Too Hard,&#8217;&#160;&#8216;Can&#8217;t Seem To Make You Mine&#8217; and &#8216;Mr Farmer.&#8217; Their eponymous 1966 debut album&#160;has long been recognized as a minimalist rock &#8217;n&#8217; roll masterpiece, while its sequels, the&#160;pop-art A Web Of Sound and florid Future, have also grown&#160;more influential as time goes on. &#160; For decades, the name The Seeds was most closely identified with the activities of their&#160;eccentric vocalist, the late Sky Saxon, but the first, path-finding line-up was always a&#160;collaboration, the musical director of which was, without a doubt, keyboard whiz&#160;Daryl Hooper. Now, in the 2020s, as the only surviving original Seed, Daryl has&#160;reclaimed his birthright with a new and powerful set of Seeds personnel: band historian&#160;Alec Palao on bass, singer/frontman extraordinaire Paul Kopf, and Sky Saxon alumni&#160;Mark Bellgraph on guitar and Justin Smith on drums. &#160; LOVE with Johnny Echols sees Arthur Lee&#8217;s longest serving band continue to perform the classic songs from Love&#8217;s first three albums Love, Da Capo, Four Sail and of course the timeless Forever Changes. This isn&#8217;t just a nostalgia trip &#8211; their shows are drawing in an increasingly younger audience as teens and students are discovering the timeless music produced by these 60s legends performed by a band that is truly on top of its game.Johnny Echols: &#8220;I so look forward to performing LOVE's extraordinary music to an appreciative audience. We perform much of Forever Changes, as well as favourites from our extensive catalogue... a few deep cuts as well as a few surprises!&#8221; Joining Johnny Echols on stage is Baby Lemonade who from 1993 until Arthur&#8217;s death in 2006 performed as his band and became an essential part of the renaissance of LOVE&#8217;s music. This iteration of LOVE saw many sold-out tours, including a US tour with the Zombies, as well as back-to-back performances at the legendary Glastonbury festival (UK) and appearances all over Europe. On July 8th, 2024 &#8220;Five String Serenade,&#8221; the lead single from Just To Remind You&#8212;the first new Arthur Lee / Love studio album in 33 years was released. The song features a gorgeous orchestral arrangement by David Angel, harkening back to his work on Love&#8217;s timeless classic Forever Changes. Famously covered by Mazzy Star, the track was recorded in the same room at L.A.&#8217;s Sunset Sound where Love recorded their first three albums, and features lead guitar from Love founding member Johnny Echols and tasteful backing from the current and longest-serving incarnation of Love. LOVE is:Johnny Echols: Guitar, VocalsRusty Squeezebox: Lead Vocals, GuitarMike Randle: Guitar, VocalsDavid &#8220;Daddyo&#8221; Green: DrumsJames Nolte: Bass &#160; &#160;]]></description>
