Dan Webb Howard
THE ECHO COLLECTOR
The Echo Collector (aka Dan Webb Howard) wanders the earth,* collecting musical echoes and weaving them into songs. A genuine man of intrigue and mystery,** his music defies genre,*** spanning from bossa nova to folk to straight-ahead rock.****
*Actually, he’s not very well traveled
**Actually, he’s a middle-aged, suburban dad
***No genre wishes to claim it
****This last part is actually fairly accurate
Apis Mellifera
@apismelliferasings is a whimsically macabre story teller, who shares heartbreak and tragedy through lilting melodies and cheeky lyrics. Her operatic interludes will thrill your senses and ache your heart.
She’ll be touring the south this winter, but has big plans for her return in spring, so follow her journey at apismelliferasings.com.
Boxcar Figaro
Boxcar Figaro is the musical project of songwriter Victor DesRoches, playing lyrically rich and melodically compelling original, authentic, Americana songs that improve the mind, make the body stronger, and increase feelings of well-being. This is a solid, stripped-down easily listenable band with enough bump in their step that at times you’ll want to get up and dance. Along with original music, Boxcar Figaro plays creative interpretations of other’s tunes from the 1930s to today.
