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."

Annalyse & Ryan

Annalyse & Ryan are a NY-based Americana duo. Their sound and songs take listeners on a soulful, rootsy journey, “resounding from the hollers with a haunting beauty” (Jeff Biggers, Huffington Post).

Annalyse & Ryan’s strong harmonies melt together seamlessly, with an undeniable edge: a symbiotic clash reminiscent of their differing senses of place, yet their ironically parallel styles of seeing the world. Their music has been featured on CBS, BBC, and in multiple documentaries. The duo is touring this spring in support of their new EP Trilogy. The album features a phenomenal group of musicians brought together for this 3-song project.
