THE UNSACRED HEARTS- American-styled old-school rock and roll. Riff-happy power trio fronted by one shoutin' drunkard. Weird chords. Songs about airlinebottles, Dylanology and giving up on rock and roll.MAN IN GRAY- Noisy, sexy indie punk. One pretty guitar, one ugly guitar, one punk bass and one jackhammer drummer. Screaming and whispers from Tina. Songs about shock, awe and why Feb 14th is dumb.SECRET DAKOTA RING- A candy factory. Symmetrical washes of electric guitars, saccharine harmonies and tom-tom rolls. Hitsville chorii aplenty. Songs about true heartbreak, living in restless times and end tables.DRACULAZOMBIEUSA- A party-time electro-hardcore partnership. Overlapping razor-edged drum-beats. Fuzz bass. A nation spanning concert franchise. Songs about asshole dudes and MoneyBalling.THE TWO MAN GENTLEMEN BAND- Original circus-country and dixieland-swing with banjo, string bass, kazoos, & a triangle. Fast music at a reasonable volume. Skillfully sung harmonies. Songs about cheap liquor, loose whores and distinguished gentlemanfolk.KICKSTART- Roaring, contagious pub-anthems about drinking, gambling, rocking, drinking and drinking. This is 100% bad-ass rowdy rock music, laden with deicious pop-hooks and made with love. THE OCTAGON- To-the-point, tuneful, parsed and pared down but high in energy, The Octagon wails it briskly with effect. Sticky, hummable Rock and Roll abandon.BENJI COSSA- Sincerely beautiful homemade melodic pop with roots. Classic, mad- genius charm, ragged edges, and other-worldly singing. Also, music made by a very nice man who enjoys flying a big kite.

LOOKER-The Shangri-Las backed by the Pixies. "One collective stiletto heel in the Brill Building circa 1963 and the other in what used to be CBGB." Put the top down, turn it up, sing along. Huge hits.

ROCKETSHIP PARK - Josh Kaufman makes songs that are hard to forget about. Ultra-melodic, lush, cinema-scope folk-pop about family, life, loss. Tinges of country, Dylan, big hooks.

HIGGINS - Old pals who mine the fertile wells of the classic rock. The grooves are slow-burning and good-feeling. The playing is expert and soulful. There are layers of delicious melody tucked in every crevasse.

JACK AND THE PULPITS - Josh Kaufman and Annie Nero, young and in love, sing sweetly and play like angels.
