Rick Eberle Band
Rick Eberle Band
"With an alt rock flavor that fans of Third Eye Blind or Foo Fighters would dig on one track, to a sugary pop-rock sensibility in the vein of Fountains of Wayne or Barenaked Ladies on another, Rick Eberle has proven himself to be a unique and versatile singer, songwriter and guitarist on both ends of the musical spectrum. Influenced by a wide variety of artists from The Beatles and Elvis Costello, to Gavin DeGraw and Hozier, Eberle consistently delivers hard hitting, powerful riffs interwoven with melodic vocals and insightful, introspective lyrics. Each listen is an aural adventure."

Grand Folk Railroad
Grand Folk Railroad
Grand Folk Railroad brings on the fun with a quirky, eclectic/eccentric mix of original tunes, forgotten favorites, 60s and 70s pop gems, one-hit wonders, old-school country, and contemporary folk. With a make-every-note-count approach to performing, a vast eclectic repertoire, and questionable regard for musical traditions, Grand Folk Railroad blurs the lines between pop, rock, folk and singer/songwriter genres.

Dizzy After Midnight
Dizzy After Midnight
"Dizzy After Midnight is a 4 piece original band with 80s inspired songs with modern flare! Featuring Mike Alessi, Jake Atherton, Sean Sokol, and Ryan Gruber! Every Dizzy show is truly unique experience. "

Cecilia Grace
Cecilia Grace
Cecilia Grace is an award winning, nationally touring, singer-songwriter based in Rehoboth Beach, Delaware. Audiences have compared Cecilia’s raw vocals to mega stars like Lady Gaga, Alanis Morisette, and Lainey Wilson. She takes inspiration from master songwriters like Kacey Musgraves and Julia Michaels, whose blunt lyrics embody, “you took the words right out of my mouth." Her vocal styling is bold, clear, and angelic; her guitar playing unique. On stage, audiences are treated to magnetic, star-quality entertainment. Cecilia is excited to perform at her 9th Montauk Music Festival.

Mark Newman
Mark Newman
"Mark Newman Bio... Growing up in New York, Mark Newman’s musical journey has taken him around the world several times as both sideman and singer/songwriter. This ace stringman (guitar, lap steel, mandolin, dobro) and accomplished songwriter is the type of singer whose warm and expressive voice sounds like an old friend. He put it all together on 2006’s “Must Be A Pony” (Danal Music, LLC). In 2010 he took a quantum leap forward with the stunning “Walls Of Jericho” (Danal Music. LLC) and has just released, “Brussels”( Danal Music. LLC), a live solo EP. “Empirical Truth”, his latest CD was released in June, 2018 (Danal Music, LLC, distributed by WBA Records). It won best CD from the Long Island Blues Society. Sharing the stage with such notables as soul legend Sam Moore (Sam & Dave), John Oates(Hall and Oates), Jim McCarty (Yardbirds, Renaissance),the late Willy DeVille (Mink DeVille), Bobby Whitlock (Derek and the Dominos), Sam The Sham and Darlene Love has given Newman the perspective to craft an individualistic sound framed in straight-from-the-hip rock’n’roll, simmering with the subtle flavors of blues, R’n’B, funk, folk and soul. Mark is currently touring with the reformed Blues Project."
