Michael Darling:
Michael Darling is a singer, songwriter, multi-instrumentalist, and producer from Madison, WI. Inspired by contemporary artists like Perfume Genius, Lana Del Rey, and Father John Misty, Michael blends elements of indie pop and folk-rock to create a reflective, emotional sound that is uniquely his own.
Old Oaks trio:
Old Oaks encompasses the acoustic music of Mount Horeb Singer Songwriter, Frank Laufenberg. The music ranges from 12-string renditions of classic tunes like Purple Haze and Heart of Gold to melodious folk-jazz originals. Frank is frequently joined by saxophonist Daniel Haschke and upright bassist/vocalist Claire Kannapell, who complete the Old Oaks Trio.
Candace Griffin:
Armed with a guitar and a lot of feelings, Candace Griffin has been inspired by other female rockers such as Michelle Branch, Sheryl Crow, Melissa Etheridge and others to share stories through music. She has released five independently produced albums since 2013; each poetically capturing a chapter in her own life in the most relatable way. In a review by Curtis Bell, Candace's music is described as "...intimate, yet powerful at the same time." Others have acclaimed "she puts her listeners right in the moment." Having performed in various places in the upper Midwest over the past decade (anywhere from coffeeshops, DIY venues, all the way to Summerfest), Candace looks to keep sharing her music as long as anyone wants to listen.
Thrown-Out Bones:
San Francisco-based Thrown-Out Bones is a high-energy swanky rock group known for their experimental approach to genre and performance. With 10+ years of playing together, this power trio has developed a unique sound that blurs the lines between funk, jazz, classic rock, and deep, contemplative jams. The shows themselves have gained a following for the creative ways the band breaks down the fourth wall with audience-inspired improvisation or even occasionally inviting fans onstage to sing lead.
