Blues Organization-
The bands main thrust is swinging, funky blues in a mellow tone. The main influences
are Jimmy Smith and Mose Allison, seasoned with Muddy Waters and Oscar Brown
Jr. Our Performance Philosophy is that we are about soulful rhythms without
intrusiveness. We endeavor to capture your attention rather than demand it.
The choice, we believe, belongs to the audience.Blues

Bayou Boys- Red Hot Cajun, Zydeco & New Orleans R&B Music. Whether it's a line dance, two step or a Waltz, Once the band starts playin' no one can sit still.
Clan Dyken- World/Rock, Clan Dyken has toured steadily, covering North America, Hawaii, England, and most recently, Europe. They have self-produced eight collections of original music, the most recent release being Bear’s solo project “Bushleague Hits”.
Most of their CD’s recorded using solar power, the Dykens have consistently utilized alternative energy in presenting their unique brand of activist rock and roll. Their work is influenced by a wide variety of cultures including Native American, African, Latin and Reggae. Their equipment is often powered by the sun or with generators run on plant seed oils.
The lyrics written mostly by Bear Dyken reflect years of personal experience in direct action and civil disobedience. The Dykens support Native American Sovereignty issues, Nuclear Abolition, Old Growth Forest preservation and Hemp with constant touring, outreach to schools and universities.
Their shows often include Native American speakers who discuss religious freedom issues, human rights violations and Native sovereignty; these same individuals have addressed the United Nations, the British Parliament and high level United States officials.
Planet Pulse- Planet Pulse performs original songs and spoken word. "A natural blending
and bending of musical styles." (Marc Musacchaio, Ledger Dispatch) A mix of
reggae-rock, latin, gypsy-jazz & aboriginal blues, comes together with a
unity that creates a unique and compelling musical experience.
Planet Pulse was formed in 2002 by singer / songwriter Jack Shields, and
vocalist / guitarist, Billie Shields. In the past decade the Shields
released three CD's of their original songs and spoken word with Loco Amor,
(as well as a solo CD in 2001). Planet Pulse is really an evolution of the
Loco sound, more rhythmic with the addition of some acoustic instruments and
horns, with the same meaningful lyrics, quality musicianship and high energy
performances. Planet Pulse is a band that reflects its name in many ways.
Music to move you, music to unite, to seek a peaceful, just world, a green
planet for countless generations.
Envy-
Envy is now on a CD, the first of which to be made by the entire band.
With the addition of another vocalist the style of the lyrics has improved, along
with the overall sound of the music. "I think that the first CD was kind of like
the starting block to get people interested in creating music along with me, the
next CD will be the first real Envy CD," says Kirk Romero. When asked how he felt
about the new material Frank Romero said, "I believe the new CD will define the
true sound of the band. Envy's new projects include music that is more sophisticated
than some of their original work. The constructions of the songs consist of more
intricate riffs and overall organization. Also, with input from other band members
it's now possible for them to touch on some other styles for certain songs. "The
new album is going to have more experience behind it which will make it even better. Envy is: John Lemos, guitar; Will Ebbett, vocals; Mike Lascola, bass; Frank Romero,
drums; Kirk Romero, vocals and guitar.
