Dan Sumner is an internationally-acclaimed guitarist, songwriter and producer. Adam Ryland (drums) and Ben Ford (bass) lay down powerful, funky and soulful grooves that energize Duffeys vivid songs.

OUT OF THE GAME Jason Weinheimers day-job is making other musicians sound great. As a producer at his Fellowship Hall Sound studio, he's attracted some of Americanas most lauded songwriters and performers: John Moreland, Hayes Carll, Shinyribs, John Fullbright, among many others. But Weinheimer hasnt given up recording his own music, sporadically releasing records under the moniker The Libras, hand-picking collaborators from years on the road and in the studio. "Faded was an accidental record," Weinheimer says. "With the pandemic, my musician friends found themselves suddenly without gigs or sessions, so we started sending tracks back and forth just to pass the time and keep ourselves entertained. The next thing I knew, I had 10 songs that felt like they represented this moment." Featuring: Paul Griffith (John Prine), Al Gamble (St. Paul and the Broken Bones), Paddy Ryan (John Fullbright), Jesse Aycock (Elizabeth Cook), Chris Michaels (Jim Mize), & Steve Berlin (Los Lobos). https://www.sonic.nl/sonic_nl/mailing/007upcsh.htm --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- OOTPLP 16 JOE & THE FEELS UNSUPERVISED LP 04.2021 OOTPCD 16 JOE & THE FEELS UNSUPERVISED CD 04.2021 01.

THE BEAR & THE WOLF Joe & The Feels is equal parts band and coping mechanism. The only band made entirely of healthcare professionals; their music is dripping with natural, cathartic energy. Staples of the Little Rock music scene, Joe Yoder (vocals, guitar), Dave Hoffpauir (drums), Andy Warr (lead guitar), Steve Blevins (bass), and Gaines Fricke (keys) channel their highs and lows into a loud beautiful noise. Confronted with life's most vulnerable moments, Joe & The Feels debut record, Unsupervised, offers the musical equivalent of a good cry, a lively cheer, and a warm bearded hug. https://www.sonic.nl/sonic_nl/mailing/010upcsh.htm =======================================================================================
