Do you love Bob Dylan and the Band? If so, you'll love roughneck up-and-comers the Felice Brothers, who will release their new album, Yonder Is The Clock, April 7 on Team Love Records (Conner Oberst/Bright Eyes/Jenny Lewis ). The Felice Brothers have been building quite a following with rave reviews from live shows at Bonaroo and SXSW as well as show stealing opening sets for the likes of Bright Eyes and Old Crow Medicine Show. Last fall the band's self-released eponymous first record was among the 25 nominees for last fall's Uncut Music Magazine's "Uncut Muisc Award" in amongs such notable and critically acclaimed artists such as Fleet Foxes, Drive-By-Truckers, PJ Harvey, Robert Plant & Allison Krauss, Portishead, The Hold Steady, The Raconteurs, Radiohead and Bruce Springsteen.

His gag cartoons have been published in The New Yorker, but the songs written by "hard scrabble singer- songwriter" (Time Out New York) and "erudite redneck" (Boston Globe) Andy Friedman aren't written for laughs. "Friedman has a mastery of wordy self-loathing that many white dudes with guitars would kill for," says Nashville Scene.

The title track to his debut studio album, 2006's Taken Man (City Salvage Records/Rounder Europe), found itself at number 30 on the New York Post's "207 Best Songs To Download in 2007. "

Nicknamed the "Hillbilly Leonard Cohen" (Athens News) and "The King of Art Country," (Minneapolis City Pages) Friedman's "fractured folk songs" (Los Angeles Times) explore issues of art, wild dreams, and wanderlust, while celebrating "those who wash down life's knuckle sandwiches with ice-cold despair" (Time Out New York). NPR's Faith Salie adds, "Friedman is not exactly one of those musicians you play while you're paying your bills or cleaning the house. His songs demand that you sit down and listen to them, which is why he is such a hot live act."

In January of 2009 Friedman released his sophomore studio album, Weary Things (City Salvage/Kindred Rhythm), to widespread critical praise. Catch Friedman and his backing band, known as The Other Failures-"one of the most respected bands on the Brooklyn scene" (Cleveland Free Times) in Winston.

Greensboro native and Austin, TX resident Seth Walker’s music combines the driving delivery and infectious guitar style of B.B. King and T-Bone Walker with a gift for songwriting that stamps his music with a sound all his own. Walker himself describes his music as “a different point of blue.” Moreover, the gifted singer, songwriter and blues guitarist has been on a roll over the past several months. He’s toured with blues luminaries Charlie Musselwhite and Marcia Ball, shared a Christmas tour with Americana faves Bruce Robison and Kelly Willis, seen his music added to the blues channel on satellite radio and signed with the prestigious Piedmont Talent agency (which also represents James Cotton, Johnny Winter and Sue Foley). It’s hard to sing the blues with a track record like that! The Austin-based Walker released his fifth, self-titled album a year ago, and the ensuing months have been marked by one opportunity after another.
