Billboard Magazine called Brad Colerick "one of a baker's dozen of acts to watch in the folk community around the world." He has turned a lot of heads since jumping back to the artist side after 19 years producing music for ads where he worked alongside such icons as Johnny Cash, BB King, Shawn Colvin and Buddy Guy. He has appeared on hallowed stages from McCabe’s and Freight & Salvage in the west to the Bluebird and Birchmere back east. Brad’s CDs have landed in the Top 5 of both the Folk DJ and Euro-Americana charts. His fifth solo CD Tucson, released in 2014, features contributions by Canadian fiddler April Verch and Herb Pedersen on backing vocals. (www.bradcolerick.com)

Chauncey Bowers began his unpredictable career as an assistant “repo man,” then transitioned to a Harvard-educated Ph.D. in cellular biology, and now defies laws of common sense as he dissects the music world. Now an American Folk Rock artist, he coined the genre “Garage Folk” and his music has been described as Kurt Cobain meets Bob Dylan. Chauncey creates music that is unbridled, raw, honest and passionate that is lit by his questioning, wide-horizon worldview and barbed humor. (www.straytrombone.com)
