THE MIDNIGHT RIVER CHOIR

The Formation Of Midnight River Choir Was Nothing Short Of A Force Of Nature That Now Translates Seamlessly During Their Live Shows. This Band Needs No Labels Or Comparisons. Their Music Speaks Volumes About Who And What They Are. Their Lives Have Been Woven Together By A Strong Thread Of Energy Both On And Off Stage. That Energy Is Raw And Natural And Soaked Up From The Earth Through Their Bare Feet. They Believe That What You Get Is What You Give And They Give Everything They Have To Their Crowds. When That Kind Of Energy Lands Back At The Feet Of The Boys It Is Something Of Supreme Intensity. And No One Ever Forgets It.

THE BARLOW

You’ve heard of Texas country and Oklahoma red dirt. No doubt you’re also familiar with outlaw country and Southern rock. Now take all those Americana music styles and change the scenery. How about Denver, Colorado? That’s exactly where you’ll find The Barlow, a rugged, four-piece band brewing its own mountain-high version of Colorado country. One listen to The Barlow’s third full-length album New Year, Old Me available June 24th, and you hear a fresh spin on a familiar sawdust-floor friend.

The Barlow – Shea Boynton on vocals, guitar, and banjo; Jason Berner on bass; Ben Richter on drums; and Brad Johnson on guitar and vocals – consider New Year, Old Me a giant, boot-print step toward solidifying their sound. These four guys have no desire to blend into the background. They have something to say.

With special guest : JOE STAMM

Joe Stamm Band offers distinct storytelling mixed with a signature Black Dirt Country Rock sound – a sound that Stamm defines as “a nod to our Midwestern roots, as well as the Red Dirt music scene, which has had a big influence on our music.”

“There’s a sinewy, rootsy texture to his inflections, always evocative and drenched in a rock ‘n roll spirit.” — B-Sides & Badlands

From playing in middle-of-nowhere dives to being named Peacemaker Fest’s 2023 “Emerging Artist of the Year,” JSB has earned the grit and stage presence to support artists like Chris Knight, Whiskey Myers, Shane Smith and the Saints, and more. It’s the same rough-edged outlaw spirit from their early days that JSB brings to any stage and every audience today…

SWEET CHILD Tribute to Guns & Roses:

Dive into the high-octane world of Sweet Child, where the raw essence of Guns N’ Roses is reborn. Decked out in full Appetite for Destruction regalia, Sweet Child channels the heart and soul of classic rock. They made waves at Leftapalooza, clinching a top spot among tribute titans, and brought the house down at venues like The Oriental Theater, Buffalo Rose and Nissi’s. They do this because they’re true fans first—committed to recreating the danger, the banter, and the immortal anthems that defined Guns N’ Roses. Prepare to be blown away by a tribute that’s as fierce as it is faithful.

LINGER Tribute to The Cranberries:

LINGER is an exceptional tribute band dedicated to capturing the essence and spirit of the 90s iconic Irish rock band, The Cranberries. With a deep appreciation for the distinctive sound and heartfelt lyrics in the voice of the unforgettable Dolores O’Riordan, lead singer of The Cranberries, Linger pays homage to the band’s memorable hits and timeless classics.

LINGER is the first tribute to this multi-hit band in all United States, and it started in April 2022 based in Denver, Colorado. They have kept the same formation since then and been taking The Cranberries music to many places in Colorado and all over the country.
Songs like Zombie, Linger, Dreams, Salvation, Just my Imagination, Ode to my Family, When you’re gone, Animal Instinct, are just some of the hits that you will recognize immediately and take you back to high school or college times.
The unfortunate fact that Dolores O’Riordan suddenly passed away before The Cranberries started their last tour in USA left a deep emptiness in all those fans (including Linger’s members), and that’s how this project started, trying to keep alive their legacy.

William Topley & Band

William Topley’s lyrics are subtle vignettes of life that take in universal themes that are filtered through the lens of late night performances, morning after black coffees and too many cigarettes. They are songs that deliver more with each listening and give you a real sense of the journey and the feelings that affect each and everyone of us. Dire Straits guitar legend Mark Knopfler, says of Topley: “He’s big-hearted, emotional and strictly legit.” 

William Topley has developed a dedicated fan base in the U.S. ever since the release of Prince of the Deep Water in 1991, his first album with his band The Blessing. Producer Neil Dorfsman (Sting, Dire Straits) described him as “the most original songwriter I’ve heard for years.” The influences, still recognisable in his music, were already there – The Stones, Van Morrison, the best of soul and southern rock. The album catapulted The Blessing into a world tour, videos in Jamaica, TV stations in Paris and soccer stadiums in Germany with Simply Red and Level 42.

Legendary Rolling Stones Producer Jimmy Miller, who produced The Blessing’s second album Locusts and Wild Honey, was equally enthusiastic. “They’re right up my alley. I haven’t had such a good relationship with a band since Traffic.” 

Ever looking for new challenges, Topley decided to go solo for his next albums. Producer Barry Beckett said of Topley: “He’s the best singer I’ve ever heard.” And that’s from a guy who’s worked with Aretha Franklin and Paul Simon.

Topley has worked with guitarist/songwriter Dominic Miller (best known for his work with Sting), and frequently records with his band and plays live with his band (Luke Brighty – guitar, James Eller – bass, Jim Kimberley – drums, Mark Taylor – keyboards, Dorie Jackson – backing vocals). 

On the back of his latest album, Aristocrats of the South Seas and annual Bahamas Fan Trip, William Topley and the Black River Band are delivering songs that are dripping with evocative lyrics and memorable musical imagery.
