SUMMARY:KATIE SCULLIN SOLO
DESCRIPTION:Fort born and raised KATIE has been making quite a splash in the Madison area music scene. \n“She can sing you to the depths of your longing or shake you alive with her beats. Since 2008 Katie Scullin has been that little engine—chugging up the hill and gaining momentum with her lyrics\, lights and loveliness. From quiet listening rooms to high-energy festivals she easily conjures sublime melodies and moody sensations with a tap of the toe and a strum of her guitar. We want to be there with her. In the light. In the darkness. She makes it look so easy\, and we immediately feel like a confidante. Scullin continues to challenge herself and her sound by diving into new projects and producing impressive works as an independent artist. \nIn 2009 Scullin’s rock group Rivalry played Wisconsin’s largest music festival Summerfest in the Emerging Artist Series. A couple years later she took the stage as front woman with techno-soul group Star Persons who reached great heights in the Madison area being nominated and winning multiple Madison Area Music Awards. The accolades kept coming. Scullin nabbed a nomination for “Best Alternative Artist” at the Madison Area Music Awards in 2011. In 2013 she released her first solo project EP “She Smiled” and a year later was crowned Best Singer/Songwriter by 105.5 Triple M’s Project M Competition as well as Best Local Musician in the Jefferson County Daily Poll. \nHer style shifts and changes and it’s all inspired. In 2016 The Walrus (An Experimental Project)\, produced with help from producer Hunter Connors Herm\, showcased Scullin’s amazing range and acute collaborative instincts. In the dream-like rock lullaby sequence\, our vocal dynamo is backed by Darren Marabelli on guitar\, D.J. Scullin on guitar\, Travis Drumm on drums\, and Nate Wiswall on bass. \nWhether peddling a razor-sharp ballad or an energetic pop track Scullin commands attention. And now—finally—she’s bringing it all home in a full-length album called Pieces. This collection of tunes which highlights Scullin’s trademark soothing cadence and innocent curiosity brings all the feels. From catchy “You and I” to the rolling jam “Dream Awake” it’s easy to see why she’s the musical darling of backwoods pubs\, celebratory stages and your own hallowed living room. She’s a master at her craft and has got energy and emotion to spare.” \nPLEASE CALL 920-563-9391 to reserve.

SUMMARY:SCOTT AINSLIE
DESCRIPTION:SCOTT AINSLIE  has studied with elder musicians on both sides of the color line – in the Old-Time Southern Appalachian fiddle and banjo traditions\, as well as Black Gospel and Blues. He plays this music with affection\, authority\, and power. \nArmed with a variety of instruments – vintage guitars\, a fretless gourd banjo\, a one-string\, homemade diddley bow (aka cigar box guitar) and carefully chosen historical personal anecdotes of his encounters with senior musicians across the South – Ainslie brings the history\, roots music\, and sounds of America alive. \nAinslie has spent more than 30 years looking for the right story\, the right set of facts\, the right piece of history\, to introduce a song. He offers a personality\, a moment in history\, a vignette to entice you into a song and to give that song a chance to wake and breathe among us like a living thing. \nAinslie transcribed the original recordings and published a book on Delta blues legend Robert Johnson [Robert Johnson/At The Crossroads (Hal Leonard\, 1992)]\, and has an instructional DVD on Johnson’s guitar work [Robert Johnson’s Guitar Techniques (Hal Leonard\, 1997)]. \n“Durham resident Scott Ainslie led the way\, accompanied by his trusty National Steel guitar and a heart full of the best of Robert Johnson\, Blind Boy Fuller\, and Blind Blake. His set was a combination of extremely well-played blues and brief sorties into the history of the music\, the musicians\, and even his guitar. ” The Spectator\, Durham NC \nPlease call 920-563-9391 to reserve.

SUMMARY:JILL & the JAX
DESCRIPTION:The JAX feature Jill Kessenich providing lead and harmony vocals\, and some more rhythm on mandolin and tambourizta (from her Bohemian roots). Steve (T-bone) Tesmer takes the lead solos on his kick-A Dobro™. Craig (Fizz-neck) Ficenec provides a solid bass line for all of us. He also amuses us with his tales of college garage band antics.  Jeff Mason will be impersonating Ben Knowles on guitar and vocals. Their repertoire is cosmic Americana\, shamelessly borrowing from Gram Parsons\, Gillian Welch\, John Prine\, Lucinda Williams\, Alison Krauss\, Patty Griffin\, Emmylou Harris…

SUMMARY:PETER MULVEY w/ Sista Strings & Nathan Killen/ Brianna Lane
DESCRIPTION:The bikes stop here! for 2 nights.\n \nPETER MULVEY? The Washington Post: “The subtle power of his voice\, a husky\, hushed baritone… understated\, at once sophisticated and intimate [singing songs] as cover-worthy as Randy Newman\, Elvis Costello.” \nPeter will have SISTA STRINGS on violin and cello. SistaStrings are Milwaukee-based sisters who are using their gifts of music to creating social change. As classically trained instrumentalists\, Monique and Chauntee Ross are a dynamic\, collaborative pair riffing on elements of classic and gospel music to create a unique sound rooted in passion. Their sound is soulful and fresh\, a truly unique blend of their eclectic musical background. Their training in classical music paired with a deep love in gospel music has allowed them to cultivate their improvisation skills and use their instruments as their voice. The sound is rounded out by Nathan Killen on drums. \nHailing from the song-rich soil of Minneapolis\, BRIANNA LANE  is the latest in a deluge of compelling songwriters flooding the region. Lane’s vocals are both confidant and fragile\, running parallels to Mindy Smith or Americana veteran Patty Griffin. Behind Lane’s beguiling smile lies a heart that has had its share of heartache where songs like “In My Bones” and “Company” draw their inspiration. Her stories oscillate between a sense of urgency and resolve while seeking a tranquil balance.

Blending country\, folk and pop styles\, she has the unique ability to make every song sound fresh\, whether singing her own sweet originals\, covering country classics by June Carter Cash and Gram Parsons or singing pop favorites by Lennon/McCartney and Nick Lowe.

Her compatriots included Suzanne Vega\, The Roches\, Steve Forbert and John Gorka as well as her frequent duo partner Shawn Colvin.

Red House founder Bob Feldman was blown away by the release and signed her right away. Since then\, she has released six solo albums with Red House and released radio-charting albums with the folk supergroups Red Horse (with Eliza Gilkyson and John Gorka) and Cry Cry Cry (with Dar Williams and Richard Shindell). \nLucy continues to perform all over the world.
