About Yonder Mountain String Band

Yonder Mountain String Band has been driving force in roots music for nearly three decades and a key player in the progressive jamgrass movement.  They have kicked off a new chapter with ‘Nowhere Next’. The album is a mix of bluegrass, indie rock, and country with soulful, funky grooves that call for a good time.  It features original songs inspired by lived experiences, people, and places that have shaped them. The album also showcases the musical talents and collaborative writing efforts of founding members Adam Aijala (guitar, vocals), Dave Johnston (banjo, vocals), and Ben Kaufmann (bass, vocals), alongside multi-instrumentalist Nick Piccininni (mandolin, banjo, fiddle, vocals).

About Daniel Donato’s Cosmic Country

When people first meet Daniel Donato, they’re not fully braced for this walking tornado of creative energy. “They think there’s something that tips the scale in ways they don’t understand,” says Donato about his over-the-top, slightly manic vibe. “But what actually tips the scale is the amount of thought and analysis I put into my work and art, all of which is taken from the lessons of my life.”

Donato has distilled those life lessons into his debut album, ‘A Young Man’s Country’, his proper introduction to the general musical audience. The record weaves outlaw country, Grateful Dead-style Americana, and first-rate songwriting into a singular form Donato calls “21st-century cosmic country”.

About Railroad Earth

For over two decades, Railroad Earth has captivated audiences with gleefully unpredictable live shows and eloquent and elevated studio output.  The group introduced its signature sound on 2001’s ‘The Black Bear Sessions’. Between selling out hallowed venues such as Red Rocks Amphitheatre in Morrison, CO, they’ve launched the longstanding annual Hangtown Music Festival in Placerville, CA and Hillberry: The Harvest Moon Festival in Ozark, AR — both running for a decade-plus.  Beyond tallying tens of millions of streams, the collective have earned widespread critical acclaim from David Fricke of Rolling Stone, American Songwriter, Glide Magazine, and NPR.
