Southern Culture On The Skids has been consistently recording and touring around the world since its inception in 1983 when Rick Miller was a grad student at UNC-Chapel Hill. The current lineup (Dave Hartman – drums; Mary Huff – bass and vocals; Rick Miller – guitar and vocals) has been playing together for over 30 years. The band’s musical journey has taken them from all-night NC house parties to late-night network talk shows, and from performing at the base of Mt. Fuji in Japan to rockin’ out for the inmates at NC Correctional Facilities. Their music has been featured in movies and TV and used to sell everything from diamonds to pork sausage, and their legendary live shows are a testament to the therapeutic powers of foot-stomping, butt-shaking rock, and roll.

Emily Rose and the Rounders (formerly the Blue Rose Rounders) are a traditional country outfit from Los Angeles, California. After the dissolution of singer/songwriter Emily Rose Epstein’s old country band and on the tail end of her Saturn return and a near full-on mental breakdown, she recruited a few old friends to play the songs she wrote to nurse her broken heart. Fans of sad songs waltzes and a kicker or two, the Rounders serve the country up in the tradition of George Jones, Patsy Cline, and Waylon Jennings without looking too far into the past for inspiration. The Rounders songs touch on grief, regret, lost love, (all) female empowerment, and nihilism, in hopes that even in the darkest of times we can dance and sing and find a way out.
