Cowboys in the Campfire
In plain words, Tommy Stinson is a great American musician. You can needle-drop at any juncture of the Minneapolis native’s four-decade-plus career and find a moment of great significance. Stinson was a founding and lifetime member of The Replacements. He was a key second-generation ingredient in Guns N’ Roses and served a seven-year tenure with Soul Asylum. He also led two essential bands of his own — the aptly named Bash & Pop and Perfect — appeared on recordings by the Old 97’s, MOTH and BT and played bass on the Rock Remix of Puff Daddy’s “It’s All About the Benjamins.”

Stinson’s latest venture is called Cowboys in the Campfire — with good pal Chip Roberts and Michael “Chops” LaConte — and its debut album, WRONGER, is perhaps the most American album the singer, songwriter, multi-instrumentalist and producer has ever made. Stinson, LaConte and Roberts take us from Nashville to Bakersfield on songs such as “Mr. Wrong” and “Fall Apart Together,” while “Schemes,” “Souls” and “Dream” are showcases of an ace pop songwriter.
Dust Bowl Faeries
NY Hudson Valley based Dust Bowl Faeries is a faerie-tale fusion of dark cabaret, gothic polka and post-punk music. The band's eclectic repertoire of songs draw inspiration from circus songs, murder ballads and Eastern European folk tunes. Ryder Cooley, faerie leader, plays accordion and saw.
“There are no waters of the sea, as deep and marvelous as Ryder Cooley.” - Instinct Magazine

"A fascinating and scintillating fusion of Goth, Rock, Cabaret, Vaudeville, and Folk, the music of Dust Bowl Faeries transcends time and space, whispering ancient secrets through contemporary forms of communication. It’s a concoction that feels rooted in the mystic and the modern at the same time." Rey Roldan
