MARGO PRICE

Margo Rae Price is an American country singer-songwriter based in Nashville, Tennessee. The Fader has called her "country's next star." Her debut solo album Midwest Farmer's Daughter was released on Third Man Records on March 25, 2016. The album was recorded at Sun Studio in Memphis, Tennessee, and was engineered by Matt Ross-Spang. The album was recorded in three days. On tour, she is backed by her band the Pricetags.

In December 2018, Price received a nomination for Best New Artist at the 61st Annual Grammy Awards.

Price grew up in the small town of Aledo, Illinois, where she played piano and sang in church choir before studying dance and theater at Northern Illinois University. She dropped out of school in 2003, at age 20, and moved to Nashville, Tennessee.

In Nashville, Price worked a number of jobs including waiting tables, installing and removing residential siding, and teaching children dance at a YMCA.[ Price and her husband, guitarist Jeremy Ivey, were part of Secret Handshake, a band that only played political songs before she and Ivey started Buffalo Clover and later formed Margo and the Pricetags, which she says was "supposed to be a supergroup." Sturgill Simpson and Kenny Vaughan, longtime guitarist in Marty Stuart's band, have both been in the lineup at various times.

Price has been described by Rolling Stone Country as "a fixture of the East Nashville music community," and appeared on that publication's list of Country Artists You Need to Know in 2014. Fellow Nashville musician Aaron Lee Tasjan calls her "a singular and vital part of this scene, as a thing unto herself." In 2015, she provided backing vocals to the song "Prohibition Rose" from The Limestone Kid album by Parker McCollum.

On April 9, 2016, Price was the musical guest on Saturday Night Live. On 17 May 2016, she made her UK television debut on Later... with Jools Holland. In addition to her appearance on UK television, her tracks have appeared on shows on BBC Radio 6Music, notably with Steve Lamacq. On October 6, 2016, she appeared on Anthony Bourdain: Parts Unknown. On 16 November 2016, she appeared on Charlie Rose, performing "All American Made" (a Buffalo Clover song), and "Hands of Time" from Midwest Farmer's Daughter.

Price has proven to be popular in the UK, with her album reaching number 1 on the UK Country Album chart, embarking on UK tours in 2016 and 2017, performing on Later... with Jools Holland and at the prestigious Glastonbury Festival as well as garnering 3 nominations from the UK Americana Awards. She performed as part of the C2C: Country to Country festival in 2018.

On July 27, 2017, Price released a four-track EP titled Weakness, followed by her second full-length album All American Made on October 20, 2017.

Margo Price's take on classic sounds is at once familiar and daring, an infectious blend of Nashville country, Memphis soul, and Texas twang.

THE MALDIVES

The Maldives are an alt-country band from Seattle, Washington, known for sold-out live performances described by KEXP-FM as "transcendent". They have released four full-length albums and one EP. Their 2009 album Listen To The Thunder was rated the second best "Northwest Album" of 2009 by Sound on the Sound. Seattle radio station 90.3 KEXP described their 2012 album, Muscle For The Wing, as having "a grittier, more guitar-oriented roots-rock sound." The Maldives regularly play in Seattle and throughout the West Coast and have performed at the Sasquatch!, Bumbershoot, South by Southwest, Capitol Hill Block Party, Treefort, and Doe Bay music festivals.

The Maldives provided live orchestration for the 1925 silent movie Riders of the Purple Sage as part of the 2010 Seattle International Film Festival and again for the 2013 festival, scoring the silent film "The Wind". They are based in the Ballard neighborhood of Seattle and were filmed playing there as part of MTV's online series, $5 Cover: Seattle.

In addition to traditional rock instrumentation, the members of the band play banjo and accordion. Once described as "the best unsigned band in Seattle", The Maldives have released albums on Spark & Shine Records and Mt. Fuji Records.

Charlie Hager's Truth And Love Now Released!!

In 2016, American Saga, his first album was released. It was received well by the media.

Originally, I had this idea of making an album called “The X-Files” in honor of my life with my x-wife. However, in May of 2016, I was watching the news about the primaries and noticed how just about everyone involved in the election was lying so I started writing a song which eventually ended up being the title track."

Nick Nace's 'Wrestling With The Mystery' Now Released!!

Wrestling With The Mystery, Nace’s latest full-length effort, is as open-hearted and sincere as it is addictively catchy and melodic, recalling the fine country-folk efforts of Hayes Carll, Justin Townes Earle, Slaid Cleaves and James McMurtry. Recorded with producer John Latham, who also provided guitar and vocals to the record, at Nashville’s Cafe Rooster, the album features stories that are intimately, even painfully, personal, touching and tragic.

"Cut from a James McMurtry mold, this Canadian to NY to Nashville singer-songwriter has penetrating tales. What sets him apart is that he tells them with choice lyrics. The LP has a presence, a haunting arrangement with a crisp acoustic guitar that will grab ears." - John Apice, Americana Highways

"Listening to these various tales, it seems that Nace keenly observes just about everything and forgets little. Like his regret in the last tune, these songs will linger. They have staying power." - Jim Hynes, Glide Magazine

This is one great album folks which you can now purchase digitally from one of the following sites:

Charlie Hager Set To Release Truth And Love On November 1

Website
Facebook

Charlie Hager is a singer/songwriter from Nashville, Tn. He credits the majority of his musical abilities to his father, James Bernard, a longtime West Virginia bluegrass player from the 1940's to his death in 1981. His writing styles and influences come mostly from Texas based singer/songwriters from Billy Jo Shaver, Willie Nelson, Waylon Jennings, and J.J. Cale. In his youth, Charlie, decided to not attend a large high school in Nashville and instead moved out the the Tennessee countryside to a small rural high school in Trousdale County which instilled his small town values. After graduation and a few years at the University of Tennessee in Knoxville, he decided to join the U.S. Marine Corps and travel the world and for the first time started playing and writing. In 1991, he returned to Nashville and began playing local venues in the area. In the summer of 1993, he was married and had 3 children. During this time his music was placed on a back burner. In 2011 and after a divorce, Charlie returned to the Nashville music scene and with the help of some of his musical friends began playing regular shows and writing songs again.

In 2016, American Saga, his first album was released. It was received well by the media. During 2016 and 2017 Charlie played with his band at numerous venues around Nashville and on several radio stations live in both Nashville and Knoxville. Also, he began working on his sophomore album, "Truth And Love".

In July of 2018, he relocated to Las Vegas, Nevada because of his work with a production company. He is also working on establishing himself on the west coast.

At the end of 2018, the new album was completed and will now be released on Flour Sack Cape Records. The album is a collection of new songs and ones that have been written up to 10 years ago. Touching on folk and country, Charlie says of the album:

"Technically, the Truth And Love album was conceived in 2015 just prior to the release of my American Saga album in March of 2016. Originally, I had this idea of making an album called “The X-Files” in honor of my life with my x-wife. However, in May of 2016, I was watching the news about the primaries and noticed how just about everyone involved in the election was lying so I started writing a song which eventually ended up being the title track."

Colandrea / Keyboard: Benjamin Douglas

The Truth and Love Album has been a long time coming. The first recordings started in the fall of 2016 and the final masters arrived in the fall of 2018. A serious amount of thought and debate has come in how this album would be released. It was finally decided it would be a digital release of the album in Fall of 2019 followed by single releases accompanied with music videos.

Triggers & Slips To Release 2nd Studio Album 'The Stranger' November 22

Not Quite Country And Not Quite Rock N’ Roll, The Album Is Anchored Around The Voice And Songs Of Front Man, Morgan Snow.

Band Members:  Morgan Snow (Vocal, Acoustic Guitar, Harmonica), John Davis (Vocal, Lap Steel, Dobro, Electric Guitar), Tommy Mortenson (Bass, Vocal), Greg Midgley (Piano, Organ, Vocal), Page McGinnis (Electric Guitar), and Eric Stoye (Drums)

Triggers & Slips is a band that is comfortable not fitting into any one genre.  Melding classic country music with a rock-fueled sound, front man, Morgan Snow fittingly describes it as “Rock n’ roll with a country soul”.

Formed in 2008, the Salt Lake City band has worked hard touring and building a fan-base in the Western half of the United States. They released a self-titled EP in 2012 and a full album, Buffalo vs. Train in 2015. Triggers & Slips is a band focalized around Morgan Snow who along with songwriting contributes lead vocals, acoustic guitar and harmonica Previous recordings have had different players, but one consistent has been John Davis, who played on both the EP and Buffalo vs. Train, and Greg Midgley  who played on the first EP and The Stranger.  Now, with their second album, The Stranger due out this fall, the band is poised to enter the national stage.

“This record was recorded with the band that has been touring and playing live for the past 3 years,” explains Snow.  “These songs have been refined and dialed-in throughout countless live shows throughout the intermountain west.” Recording for the first time with Mike Sasish (a familiar name on the SLC rock scene) at Man vs. Music studio, they used analogue tape for 4 songs on the record and used the full 6-man band, with well-known violinist, Kate MacLeod joining them on the song, “Old Friends”.

The Stranger has 8 tracks and kicks off with a title track.  It’s a trippy, honky tonk song infused with rock n’ roll.  “It’s the best representation of the live sound of Triggers & Slips due to the grit and feel of the song,” Snow noted.  “The Stranger” will be the first single off of the album to release.  “Blue Smoke” was penned and sung by John Davis. The longest song on the album, it was recorded live in the studio.  It weaves and drones with electric guitars playing off of each other, which are played by Davis and Page McGinnis.

“Old Friends” was recorded live to one-inch tape in one take.  Driven by Page McGinnis’ acoustic guitar, acoustic piano, bass and drums, it’s the only song to feature violin player, Kate MacLeod.  “This is one of the oldest songs on the Triggers & Slips roster, and one of the first songs I ever wrote,” Snow offered.  “It has been a fan favorite and played live hundreds of times.  It was featured on the first EP, but it never really captured the feel of performing it live, so it was given new life with an updated feel and tone for this record.”

2019 has been a busy year for the band.  Along with recording the album, they’ve been playing shows and festivals and in May Snow played solo at The Bluebird Café in Nashville. Also in May the band played a sold out benefit show to help fight the local opioid epidemic in Salt Lake City.  For the benefit they recreated the Alice in Chains Unplugged album with an alt-country approach. A cover of the song, “Rooster” made it on to The Stranger as a bonus track. “Alice in Chains is one of my biggest influences and favorite bands,” Snow notes.  “I like to pay homage to some of my different influences for each album.  For instance on the album Buffalo vs. Train I recorded two train songs by Utah Phillips and one song that was on the Steve Earle Train a Comin album. “Rooster” was recorded live in one take to one-inch tape.”

A few years back, Snow moved to Nashville to fully immerse himself in music, only to contract a mysterious throat infection.  Unable to sing, with his talking limited, he moved back to Salt Lake to heal. At the time of his surgeries it wasn’t known whether he would sing again, or if his voice would be the same.   “Once I recovered fully, I hit the studio,” he recalled. “I was thinking that maybe I wouldn’t have as much time with my voice as I wanted, so I wanted to get this album recorded as soon as I was able.” Thankfully he came back stronger and with more control, and with a renewed sense of drive and purpose to make the album happen.

“Being from a hometown that isn’t considered a musical city has helped me to find my own unique voice and helped me to write songs that are authentic, raw and real,” he observed.  “I have heard people say that Salt Lake City is a fenced-in backyard and it was built and designed to be self-sufficient and removed from the world.  I think it’s succeeded in helping me take the time to build my craft and find the appropriate teammates to help me bring my vision and songs to share with people, and allow me the opportunity to record the album I always wanted to record. This one hits the mark that I was aiming for.”

"If you're even a little bit interested in hearing some very satisfying country and americana music, please check out Triggers & Slips. You won't regret it." James Orme (Slug Magazine)

Nick Nace To Release Solo Debut 'Wrestling With The Mystery' October 25

Nick Nace’s path from Canada to New York City to Nashville has been one filled with music, but the acclaimed folk singer-songwriter admits his muse led him in a different direction throughout his younger days than it does presently. Even though he was raised on a steady diet of Queen, The Band, the Beatles and even Beck, it was the bite of the acting bug that led him to relocate from the Great White North to the Great White Way.

“I always loved music, but I was a drama kid,” he admits. Fresh out of high school in the late ‘90s Nace moved to New York City to pursue acting, and it was then his musical urges began taking a greater hold of his spirit than ever before. He bought a cheap, blue guitar and found himself playing in student housing halls more frequently as the months passed. He was attending acting school, but that cheap guitar was guiding him towards the tunes.

“I loved acting school,” he remembers. “But I could feel this pull to the guitar and songs that I had never felt for drama. Then I heard Bob Dylan’s first record and my mind was blown. The rawness and energy floored me. I was hooked. then my friend played me some Velvet Underground and I couldn’t stop listening. It had soul, it had honesty. After that, I pretty much stopped acting.”

“Why would I be a conduit for someone else’s words when I could write my own,” Nace asked himself during that college-aged musical enlightening.

Soon after forming his first folk duo, A Brief View of the Hudson, with a friend from acting school, Nace found himself with prime weekly gigs, and eventually recording an EP and an LP with the duo. And for a while, that was enough. But the urge to grow as a songwriter and to tell new stories in new ways led him to discover that the Big Apple wasn’t where he needed to be in order to move ahead.

Nace has come a very long way since moving into an East Nashville basement apartment, sight unseen, in December of 2015. He discovered a community of talented, like minded writers and musicians and began working with them. He’s toured Ireland, Canada and throughout the United States, including prized slots at the Mississippi Songwriters Festival, Dripping Springs Songwriter Festival and even won the Gulf Coast Songwriter Shootout.

Wrestling With The Mystery, Nace’s latest full-length effort, is as open-hearted and sincere as it is addictively catchy and melodic, recalling the fine country-folk efforts of Hayes Carll, Justin Townes Earle, Slaid Cleaves and James McMurtry. Recorded with producer John Latham, who also provided guitar and vocals to the record, at Nashville’s Cafe Rooster, the album features stories that are intimately, even painfully, personal, touching and tragic, and is set for release on October 25.

"Nick Nace's songs pair well with a good, long drive. Each one moves just at the right speed, poetically painting scenes of all those characters you meet out on the road -- and all those thoughts you think alone behind the wheel. He's not just a songwriter's songwriter, he's a troubadour's troubadour." - Jaimee Harris (Songwriter)

Libby Koch To Release New Album 'Redemption 10: Live At Blue Rock' October 18

To celebrate the tenth anniversary of her first album, Redemption, Americana singer-songwriter Libby Koch is releasing a full band, track-for-track reimagining of the original solo acoustic recording. Redemption 10: Live at Blue Rock will be released by Berkalin Records on October 18, 2019.

The format of this record was an experiment for Koch. Recording her 2016 album Just Move On on Music Row in Nashville hooked Libby on the energy of making a record with a band playing the songs together, recording live in the studio. She wondered what it might be like to add a live studio audience to the equation - to let fans be part of the experience as well. Koch found the perfect location for this endeavor at Blue Rock Artist Ranch and Studio in Wimberley, Texas. Blue Rock is a state of the art studio and performance space in the Texas Hill Country that has the capability to film and broadcast live performances while providing an intimate experience for the audience and capturing pristine audio of the performance.

With the location set, Libby enlisted her friend Patterson Barrett (Buddy Miller, Jerry Jeff Walker, Nanci Griffith) to co-produce the project and assemble an all-star band of Austin musicians to record Redemption 10 in front of a live studio audience at Blue Rock. Tickets quickly sold out. Libby and the band played the album straight through once and then played a second take of a couple of songs, but in the end they decided that the flow and the feeling of the first takes were the ones that needed to be on the record. It was a magical evening.

While not a traditional live album, the atmosphere and the feedback from the crowd absolutely fed the band and shaped the experience that was caught on tape. Koch and her band sound relaxed and in an energized zone that only a live setting can provide, but at the same time they have the tight knit sound of an experienced studio band. In the end the experiment was a resounding success. The record shows a Libby Koch that her fans have loved for a decade now and presented these tracks in a fuller more realized way. If Redemption 10 is your introduction to Koch, you are in for major musical treat.

The band of Austin all-stars included lead guitarist Bill Browder (Denim, Steve Fromholz), drummer Eddie Cantu (Bruce Robison, Maren Morris), violinist Javier Chaparro (Austin Symphony, John Denver), and Glenn Schuetz (Jimmy LaFave). Libby played acoustic guitar, harmonica, and sang lead vocals, while Patterson Barrett rounded out the sound of the record by providing pedal steel, piano, organ, mandolin, and harmony vocals.

"In an era of widespread vocal sweetness, Libby Koch has that rare blend of powerful real-life honesty in her vocals that lends instant depth and credibility to her songs." - Melissa Clarke, Americana Highways
