Description

The Infamous Stringdusters
The Infamous Stringdusters are doing something right. They’ve earned critical acclaim, from their inception, awards and nominations aplenty, host their own successful music festival, have their own record label and a quickly growing and enthusiastic fan base across the country. They sound like no one else, combining virtuosic chops on five traditional bluegrass instruments, with an ethos on pushing the genre forward. The Stringdusters are taking improvised string band music to new places, combining musicianship, songwriting and experimental performance. As the band's newest record, We’ll Do It Live shows, a Stringdusters performance is ecstatic, with contagious energy flowing between the band and crowd. At each show you’ll see the band relaxed and having fun, while focusing on the music, "podding up" and directing swells of energy from their fans.


Dead Winter Carpenters
Dead Winter Carpenters are a year-old eclectic quintet from the shores of Lake Tahoe. DWC defies musical boundaries combining elements of rock 'n' roll, folk, roots, country, ragtime, blues and reggae with choice influences ranging from throughout rock history, including Neil Young to David Byrne and Ryan Adams and the traditional fiddle tunes of earlier times.

Poised with an arsenal of original material, Dead Winter Carpenters are doggedly in the midst of a 22-state, break-out fall tour supporting the release of a debut album, "D.W.C." This combination of talented players, a unique blend of genuine, authentic songwriting and dynamic musicianship epitomizes what great live music is all about.

The band has shared bills with the likes of Sam Bush, Yonder Mountain String Band, The Young Dubliners, Kyle Hollingsworth Band of the String Cheese Incident, Hot Buttered Rum and Poor Man's Whiskey, among others.

The five-piece outfit consists of fiddler Jenni Charles, upright bassist Dave Lockhart, guitarists Jesse Dunn and Sean Duerr, and drummer Ryan Davis.
