Back at the Ranch	There’s a new group "hubbin' it" in the swing realm, Back At The Ranch. An amazing group sure to demand your attention, BATR delivers a swinging blend of music with Clover Carroll on guitar and resophonic guitar, Rachel Carroll on upright bass and Matthew Menke playing fiddle. The effortless ease with which the combo performs their classic selections will, as Red Steagall says, "knock your hat in the creek!" Their upbeat stage presence and hilarious antics blend seamlessly together with pure harmonies and professional musicianship for a top-notch performance. The music of Back At The Ranch is a polished repertoire of Western Swing and Cowboy tunes.
Danny Santos y Los Bluegrass Vatos	Based in Austin, this native Tejano has toured much of the Continental U.S. His travels have taken him from the Midwest to the Southwest, from the East coast to the West coast as well as to much of Western Europe. He has performed in notable venues along the way, such as the Bluebird Cafe in Nashville, TN and Mahogany Hall in Bern, Switzerland. He's also performed at many music festivals, ranging from the Tucson Folk Festival to the Montreaux Jazz Fest, and he has shared the stage with notable musicians such as Guy Clark, Fred Eaglesmith & Slaid Cleaves.
Jed Marum	Jed Marum albums play regularly on Folk/Bluegrass and Celtic radio programs around the world. His music is also distributed widely on all the major MP3 services. Throughout the US each year Jed plays over 150 shows at festival, club and concert venues and his 2007 touring plans include performance dates in Canada and Mexico as well. Reflected in his song writing and song selection is a keen interest in history and the passing of culture from generation to generation. Jed performs traditional songs and contemporary songs in musical style that is both Celtic and American, with strong Bluegrass roots.
