- The Angelic Process [110] Formed in Macon, Georgia, United States in 1999 by K.Angylus and M.Dragynfly, The Angelic Process produced music over an eight year period. Pioneers and figureheads of the ambient drone metal subgenre of extreme music, their stylistic influence can be found in numerous other bands that have followed. With a sound that fused layered guitar drone and complex yet fluidly shifting time signatures, The Angelic Process forged new musical ground, and over the course of three studio albums and two EPs, developed and refined a sound that has been described as "the sound of the soul." The band was known for their unique and engaging live performances. Blasting noise, complex melodies, droning guitar resonance, rippling bass, tom-heavy martial drums, and haunting, ethereal vocals collided to create violently ambient songs that had a definite shape and progression, but enveloped the audience in warm, immersive soundscapes. In October 2007, the band was put on hold indefinitely due to Kris Angylus' severe hand injury. Half a year later, on the 26th of April 2008, he fell victim to clinical depression and took his own life.

She was soon introduced to Jazz and Blues through friends, the children of jazz drummer Louie Bellson and his wife singer/actress Pearl Bailey. By the age of 11, Annieville’s family had moved to a farm near Grants Pass, Oregon. Before long she was able to continue her piano lessons and soon was accompanying school choirs at all grade levels and several church choirs. She performed in classical orchestras and jazz/rock/blues bands. At age 14 she was performing professionally in restaurants and bars. The blues and jazz seed had been planted early on in Los Angeles and through radio and television she continued to be exposed to and inspired to learn more about boogie woogie, jazz and blues piano styles and began collecting old recordings of legendary pianists: Albert Ammons, Meade Lux Lewis, Jelly Roll Morton, Fats Waller, Otis Spann, Fats Domino, Professor Longhair and Hadda Brooks. While still a young teen in the mid 1970s, Annieville began teaching private piano lessons.

Later after settling in Seattle, Washington, Annieville ran a series of long running blues jams. A teacher of music as much as a performer, from 1996 through 2001 Annieville ran a blues jam that featured her piano students & other student musicians, giving them the opportunity to play with a live band. It was the only blues jam with an emphasis on youth and student musicians on the West Coast at that time. Along with mentoring many young blues musicians, these jams were well attended by fans of all ages. As a teacher she produced a book with accompanying CD, "Music Sprouts - Beginning Piano Blues & Boogie. A DVD, "Juke Joint Jammin' on Blues Grooves for Piano Players", endorsed by Dr. John, Daryl Davis, Charles Brown, and Pinetop Perkins. In 1998 as a performer she recorded a CD of original material, "Welcome To Annieville" which saw extensive airplay on blues internet radio. All songs were written and arranged by Annieville with the exception of "Super Vixen", written by Mark Dufresne (Roomful of Blues) who also sang on the track. Virginia Klemens and Duffy Bishop also contributed vocals on a couple tracks. The following year she appeared as a guest on former Roomful of Blues frontman Mark Dufresne's CD "Have Another Round". 2003 found her on the Raw Records compilation "The Best of The Northwest Blues Artist".

- Dangermaker (artist) Dangermaker emerged from San Francisco, CA in 2009 when singer/songwriter Adam Burnett unveiled a series of unfinished home demos to drummer Carlos Rodrigues. They collaborated to create edgier sounding songs than either had previously and went into PopSmear Studios to record with Scott Llamas (Dizzy Balloon/Panda, The Action Design, Finish Ticket), resulting in a widely reviewed 5-track EP including the Owl Mag naming Dangermaker “One of my top 5 favorite Indie bands in the Bay Area”. However, the band was still an incomplete duo until keyboardist David DeAngelis left the Arkansas Delta to see what the West Coast had to offer and brought bassist Neko along one night. While all four members began as complete strangers, they were brought together by a shared passion and need to create music reflective of their diverse backgrounds, tastes, and influences, a need that came to fruition when they went into Studio SQ in 2011 to record “Black Dream” with producers John Flores and Justin Sachs (Two Gallants, A B & The Sea, Foreign Cinema). What they could not have imagined was that during the first week of tracking, Adam’s father suffered a fatal accident and suddenly passed away. Dangermaker gained direct insight into a parable that artists have held throughout time — human experience is the substance from which honest and true works of art are formed. While the recording process nearly ground to a halt, the band ultimately used the tragedy as creative motivation and admit that “Without realizing it the experience influenced many of the new songs found on the record. Writing and recording became a process that brought us all together.” Hot on the heels of their 2013 debut album Black Dream, Breakup Records also released Light The Dark I in the fall 2014, which has received rave reviews and serves as a signed testament to the timeless maturity and solidity of the band's sound. Channeling a signature brand of dark indie pop ala early Killers, Phoenix, and White Lies has propelled the band forward to recent showcases at SXSW, CMJ and beyond.

Dean'o plays Clarinet, Soprano, Alto, C Melody, Tenor, Baritone, sax's and started playing from a very early age. As well as Clarinet & all Sax's, Dean'o also plays and experiments on "EWI" Electronic Wind Instruments with bands. Dean'o started playing recorder at school at the age of 6 years, at the age of 10 years he started on Clarinet and studied both Clarinet and Theory of music until the age of 15 when he then started to learn the finer points of playing Sax. Although not a truly accomplished musician, Dean'o has gigged with most bands in the South of England with an excellent reputation as a improviser and a session musician and until recently returning to the UK, was formerly living in Eire. A session musician for countless years, Dean'o has gigged with many Known musicians and some not so known. Dean'o has his roots firmly planted in Soul / Jazz / blues which goes a long way to describing his melodic soulful approaches to melody lines, has been described as one of the South's premier Sax players, and is always in demand with Soul & function bands in the region. Soprano Sax is a particular love of Dean'o, and this really does come across in many of the numbers he has in his set, the almost crying melody's of the Soprano, are a testament to this, and the envy of many a fine Sax player. Dean'o has for years studied improvisation and the art of this most unusual music form, which bears witness to his playing, which is unusual, with melodic undertones. Dean'o was first introduced to sax from a very early age, and has been playing ever since, Royal school of Music exams for theory under his belt complimenting the soulful playing and filling in for the general tone of any band. Dean'o has had the honor to have played for/with the following known musicians, whilst working as one of the south's leading session musician's.

Rhabdophobic, a band that I led (wrote and composed all music and lyrics) formed a few years later. My next band was an experimental folk duo -"The North And South".

I can't imagine my life without art and music. Through my music, I wear my heart on my sleeve..." [Douglas Aldridge is a passionate and eccentric American Multi-instrumentalist and Alternative, Indie Folk Singer-Songwriter residing in Atlanta, GA. Born in Miami, FL., in February 1985, to renowned Singer and Music Minister, Douglas Aldridge Sr. They moved to Georgia when Douglas was less than 1 year old. Douglas's grandfather, Donald Eugene Aldridge (? - 2016), was also a renowned Singer in his 20's in Steubenville, Ohio, making Douglas Aldridge a 3rd generation singer and entertainer. Douglas Aldridge grew up listening to the music of his parents and grandparents. As soon as He was old enough, Douglas joined chorus in his elementary school and he continued to sing in chorus throughout high school.
At the age of 16, Douglas started writing down his own song ideas and joined a band called "Grade D Beef" with 2 of his close friends but because of family turbulence, that project only lasted a few months. 2 years would pass before He would, around 18 years old, move to Athens, Ga and form a band "Rhabdophobic". Learning a lot of the basics in the 3 years to follow, Douglas recorded his first solo E.P. "About Time", an album about the struggles he faced as a teenager with his own family, with authority and with the band "Rhabdophobic" and the other 2 band member's family, which He lived with until 2006. Douglas Aldridge, then reconnected with a long time friend to start a folk duo "The North and South" and really started to find himself as a Singer Songwriter. He found a muse in his own limitations, His struggles with alcohol, and the struggles with drugs that many of His close friends and family were embattled. The collapse of his home, relationships, and job, forced Douglas Aldridge to once again pick up the pieces. He moved back to Gwinnett which Lead to his 2nd L.P. "To Sing The Blues", an album about his poor self image and poor life choices. After some very self destructive years, Douglas Aldridge began to collect himself and for the next 3 years worked on his 3rd solo L.P. "And To Scream Loudly", an album about anger, loss and redemption. In 2015, Douglas released a collection of new songs on his "Mouth Full Of Nothing" E.P., which sparked his creative nature and started him on a path to writing and releasing an E.P.

- Epoch Failure (band) - Epoch Failure is an urban pop duo resulting from the collaborative efforts of singer/producer Billy Joe Marrero and rapper Nick Young. With this charismatic pair, what you see is what you get. And that's simply a couple regular guys from The Garden State. No egos. No attitudes. Just a lot of talent. Billy Joe (aka “Billy The Kidd”) was born and raised in Camden, NJ. As one of five boys growing up in a single parent home, he’s no stranger to challenges. In 2007, ABC’s 20/20 came to Camden to profile children growing up under the conditions of extreme poverty. Billy was one of three kids selected by the show’s producers. For nearly a year he was followed by news anchor Diane Sawyer and crew, who even spent a night in his family’s house to experience sleep without heat or power. After this 20/20 special aired, the positive response to Billy and his family was overwhelming. So much so, they were nominated for an Extreme Makeover: Home Edition. The makeover included a full home recording studio for Billy to pursue his musical passions and this was -ultimately- his launching pad and turning point. Putting his degree from Camden’s Creative Arts High School to good use, Billy’s been crafting infectious melodies and bangin’ out monster tracks ever since. Nick (aka “Nickey Knoxx”) was born in Brooklyn, raised in Williston, SC and then bounced around the east coast before finally landing in Trenton, NJ. As a rapper, Nick has been grinding on the Jersey hip hop scene since his early teens. Once of legal age, he enlisted in the Army as a way to receive a college education and open up more options for his future. Nick attended West Virginia University and now, in addition to penning brilliant lyrics and party-rockin’ crazy crowds, he serves full-time in the New Jersey Army National Guard as a photographer and broadcast journalist. While they likely refer to him as Staff Sergeant Young, rather than Nickey Knoxx, his Army superiors are extremely supportive of his musical mission. In September, 2013, Epoch Failure signed with North Star Media for an exclusive publishing and recording contract.

- Gabriel Savage (musician) is a Canadian pop singer, songwriter, music producer and composer from Vancouver, British Columbia.
After singing and writing with rock bands early in his career, Canadian artist Gabriel Savage made a seemingly effortless transition into the role of electro-savvy producer with his solo release of 'Rain' in the Summer of 2015, followed by his reworking of the Chris Isaak classic 'Wicked Game' late that same year.
2016 brought 'One Night', a "nostalgic take on early 2000's trance" and 'Real Eyes', followed by the re-release of his 2013 collaborative efforts 'Close Your Eyes' (feat. Gabriela Geneva)' and 'Dance the Night Away', accompanied by a 2017 Noah's Star: 'Close Your Eyes (Remix)' by Pablo Manazark (son of the late-Ray Manzarek, The Doors).
In mid 2017 Savage released 'Stay Awake' before announcing a new ep release around the corner, while early 2018 Twitter records show that Savage suffered a lost hard drive which resulted in "multiple songs, projects and ideas compltely lost, putting him back months of progress and years of ideas".
Late that same year Savage released 'Rough Seas' featuring fellow Vancouver singer/songwriter Elle Wolf, the first of his releases to not feature his own vocals and the first to delve so nonchalantly into the realm of electro-pop.
The newest single from Gabriel Savage was reported via his Twitter and Facebook accounts on April 9th 2019 and is expected for an April 25th release date on all major music platforms and streaming outlets.

We aim from darkness to the light. We are, we exist, we shine. All the boundaries are relative. To define and overcome them is in our power".

Ilana’s fiddling stems from the old-time Appalachian tradition and dives deep into the Blues.

- Ika (band) Is an indie / americana band from Belgrade, Serbia. Members are: Ivana Smolović (vocal), Darko Živić (guitar), Marija Jovanović (violin) and Miloš Popović (double bass). Ivana started practicing the guitar some years ago while listening to her favorite Iron and Wine, Kings of Convenience and J.Tillman, at the same time trying to compose little pieces for the songs she has been writing for years. First home recordings she made reached Ivan Lončarević, radio host of a popular indie music program Pop Depresion (Radio Studio B, 99,1), who offered to enlist the song Bubble into a compilation he was working on at the moment: Morning will change everything? - New music scene of Serbia. That is when Ivana decided her song needed a proper presentation, and since that guitar practicing didn’t go way to well, she turned to a friend. Darko and Ivana had already played together a couple of years back in a trio, trying to portray their favorite jazz and bossanova standards. Instantly, they made a perfect music match. The initial idea was to keep the band small. Their future violin player Ivana met while working on a project A Star is Born (directed by Vanja Kovačević), a rocumentary of a cover band Writers of Fiction, which plays songs by The Decemberists. Marija was already a fan of Bubble, the song that, in the meantime, became something of a radio hit single. [576] [577] sr:Ика_(бенд)

After several years, he left after signing with RCA, which released his first album, "Tore Up," and he stayed on the road after Sun Records issued "Wild" in 1993. "Don’t Get None Onya’," released in 2004, captured the power of his blend of honky-tonk country and Memphis rock 'n' roll and was the birth of his own label. “Rockin”, “Killer Instincts” and “Recycled” soon followed and the latest album is in progress now. Williams performed all of the hand shots for the movie “Great Balls of Fire” starring a young Dennis Quaid and was also featured in “The War Room” documenting Bill Clinton’s race for the White House. He’s also had numerous television appearances and various shows on MTV, VH1 and CMT.

- Jordan Lebron Massey [705] [706] Born Jordan Lebron Massey/Brandon K. Massey , Jordan was raised as a military brat, with his family eventually settling in Toronto,Ontario . Ironically, as a kid he wasn't particularly interested in singing. Only after continuous encouragement from his mother, and drawing on his grandmother's example as a devoted church choir member, Jordan entered a local talent show at 13 years old. He won that competition and several more, eventually amassing 19 trophies. At 14, Jordan crossed paths with producer Troy Taylor, who's worked with everyone from Boyz II Men to Lionel Richie, and Taylor immediately recognized Jordan's talent. Jordan Massey has patiently and artfully crafted some of the most acclaimed and compelling R&B music of the decade. His first two Walker Entertainment Records albums, "Instinct" (2013) and "Alive" (2014), yielded a trio of top ten singles, "Can't Let Go" "Ring The Alarm" and "Flawless" And when the latter song garnered Jordan a coveted Upcoming Artist Award nomination for Best Male R&B Vocal Performance, it marked the validation of the faith shown in Jordan by the late W.E.R founder John Walker , who hailed him as one of "the most promising Pop R&B artists we have had since we started the company 60 years ago." Now, with the 2014 release of "Alive" Jordan Massey is more than ready to claim his place in the pantheon of Pop greats.

Their previous single, “Home Sweet Home” has dazzled Canadian country music fans, becoming the #1 selling single by a Canadian country artist (week of January 25, 2016). Co-written by The Lovelocks (Ali Raney and Zoe Neuman), Gavin Slate (The Tragically Hip, Doc Walker, Barenaked Ladies), Travis Wood, and produced by Grammy award winner Ben Glover, and JUNO award winner Mitch Merrett, “Home Sweet Home” also made it to #2 on the top 50 Canadian viral list on Spotify, gaining over 200,000 plays within the first few months of the release. The single also achieved a spot in the top 20 Country Singles iTunes chart, with The Lovelocks being the only Canadian artist in the top 20 at that time. The video for “Home Sweet Home” debuted on CMT Canada (February 5, 2016), and was directed by Ben Knechtel, who also directed the music video for Carly Rae Jepsen's “Call Me Maybe”.
Celebrated by BlogTO as “one of the top 5 alt-country bands to watch in Toronto”, The Lovelocks are a dynamic duo, just two city girls who LOVE country music. Their sound is commonly described as a mixture of The Dixie Chicks go Lumineering with a Mumford & Sons-ian alt-country, roots-inspired approach filled with authentic, 'roots-country' sound with lots of acoustic instrumentation, including the fiddle, banjo, mandolin, and dobro.

- Lydia Ramsey (Lydia Ramsey is an American singer-songwriter and multi-instrumentalist from Seattle, Washington. Her debut album Bandita is set to be released in October 2016. Her musical style has been described as a combination of folk, roots-rail, and Americana. Ramsey has been praised for the almost vintage quality of her voice. But her art and outlook aren't solely influenced by the past and certainly not dwelling in nostalgia. A collector of ancient music making devices, her songs feature those instruments in unique arrangements to color the tunes, all the while backing up her beautiful voice. Her songs convey both the wildness and free nature of the great northwest and are steeped in the fingerpick-guitar rudiments of folk music.
Born at home in the wooded beach town of Indianola, WA, Ramsey was raised by musician parents in a house scattered with instruments, from guitars and mandolins, to clarinets and accordions. With an upbringing rooted deeply in musical discovery and invention, her earliest inspirations came from her exploration on the piano, through the music of Chopin, Bill Evans, Debussy and Bach. When she began playing guitar, she drew inspiration from traditional folk artists. These influences shaped the foundation of her songwriting, combining the melodies of classical and jazz composers, with the storytelling and harmonies rooted in folk music.)

[884] Moral Crux is an American punk rock band from Ephrata, Washington. The band has been active since 1983. The original line-up featured James Farris on vocals, Jeff Jenkins on guitar, Jody Kimmell on drums and Justin Warren on bass. James and Jeff are still in the band to this date with Jamie Jaspers on bass and Scott Rozell on drums. Moral Crux plays a styled up '77 version of melodic pop punk with politics as a large theme. Moral Crux played all around Washington and Oregon in the 1980's and released their S/t debut in 1987 on Velvetone Records(reissued by Jailhouse in 2008) and a followup on Polemic Records called "Side Effects of Thinking"(reissued by Lookout!/Panic Button in 2000).
1993's "And Nothing But The Truth" Allmusic says "Songs like "Soldier Boy" (an antiwar screed about men in uniform "dying for the president's image") and the self-explanatory "Tienanmen '89" prove that not all political punk needs to sound like Crass in order to be effective" and they are pretty right on.
Once their song "Breakdown" was included on the "Punk USA" compilation, alongside Screeching Weasel, The Queers, Pink Lincolns, The Vindictives, Face to Face, Jawbreaker and tons more, people began taking more notice. The release of "I Was A Teenage Teenager" in 1994(reissued by Jailhouse in 2011) just added to this.).
Followed by a slew 7"s and split 7"s with the likes of Boris the Sprinkler and Motherload and a "Greatest Hits" CD on Monitor Records, as well as, an excellent single for Mutant Pop Records "Victim of Hype" MC trudged through the grunge and sludge of the 90's
Later on, Panic Button Records and Lookout! Records released two full lengths "Something More Dangerous" and "Pop Culture Assassins". On "Something More Dangerous" the more polished of the two records, James Farris' disdain and urgency for a better country really seeps through and is best relayed on the song "Bomb for the Mainstream" desperation and anger turns to activism.
Moral Crux continues at it today, 30 some odd years after they started, mainly keeping tours to the West Coast and still cranking out singles. 2015 will see the release of new material on the "Revolution(Shouldnt Be So Hard)" 7" on Mooster Records later this year. [885] [886] [887] [888] [889]

Naakhum often collaborated with other artists, such as Senmuth, with whom published two albums: Zmajevski Jezik (The draconian language) and Ancestral Serbia both based on Slavic mythology.

- NEFFEX ("is an independent production duo consisting of vocalist Brandon “B-Ho” Horth and DJ Cam Wales" which was founded in 2014. The band has "dedicated all its creative efforts to making a library of professional, copyright-free songs for fellow creators (and anyone else) to use in their videos and other content. NEFFEX puts out a new song each Wednesday, an intensive endeavor that requires Wales and Horth to spend dozens of hours in the studio every week." The two met at around age 15 in a "high school punk rock band." As described by the pair: "The band wasn’t great, but we got along well, so Cam and I broke off from the group and started making our own music. Acoustic guitar raps, some synth-style music, whatever we felt like making. Eventually, we were separated by college and Cam moving up to Los Angeles, but we reunited the summer going into my senior year and realized we were both still producing and making music in our free time. We asked each other when we were happiest in our lives, and it was when we were 15, making terrible music together. So, we decided to start working together again, and came up with the name NEFFEX and the symbol." The band initially started on Soundcloud and Facebook, but really began to garner recognition when they began posting their copyright-free music on YouTube. Currently, YouTube is their primary platform, and their channel, NEFFEX Music, has 1.5 million subscribers as of May 14, 2019. Dozens of their songs have tens of millions of views on YouTube.)

After appearing in the video for “Come With Me”, Polina was handpicked by Dim Mak’s boss Steve Aoki to join him on his ‘Deadmeat’ tour in 2012. Following on from this, she has also had her own individual success with ‘Fade To Love’ which held top positions in the European pop/dance charts throughout the year (including UK Top 20 Club chart) and the video for which reached No.1 on MTV Russia.

- The Sables, an energetic electro act based in Frankfurt, that through its respective members brings together cutting-edge Moscow hip-hop and gritty garage rock from London. For their most recent recordings they have collaborated with A-List celebrities Röyksopp, Athlete, Future Funk Squad and Tyrone Lamar - cousin of Kendrick Lamar. Among their influences are The Chemical Brothers, Massive Attack, Air and Pendulum. Their first single "Right Time Is Now" scored fantastic 8,8 out of 10 at ReverbNation Crowd review on January of 2016 (Radio Wigwam, UK). Turn off the Bright Lights is the new EP release from The Sables. 6 tracks, 6 gemstones with each its own colour. Just brilliant because...don't know why it's so. Probably because not every stone is a gemstone. Well, turn off the bright lights and enjoy. Everyone deserves to hear such Jewels (Gabriel Briquet, reviewer for ForTheLoveOfBands).

- Sam Robson, (not the British cricketer) vocal/arranger/harmonizing prodigy as an a capella one-man band/orchestra and choir. Sam Robson is a twenty-three year old musical prodigy and multi instrumentalist who is the son of classically trained violinist parents – his father plays in the London Symphony Orchestra. After finding trouble settling into mainstream education it became clear to him that music was the desired path. At this point he discovered the Brit School from where he would eventually graduate with distinction, immediately showing himself to be an exceptional student and winning their prestigious competition for song writing in his second year. At the Brits School he studied with the hugely successful act Rizzle Kicks, whom he supported regularly at live shows in their formative years. He also wrote, recorded, produced and arranged for many of the students at the school, building a studio in his parent’s house that often accommodated all-night full band recordings. As well as being an accomplished guitarist and drummer Sam has always been fascinated with the voice as an instrument in its own right, and a cappella has been a natural vehicle for him in that regard. He has created versions of s Mirrorball – which after its upload to YouTube was mentioned by the band’s singer Guy Garvey, during their tour of the United States – and a version of the theme tune for TV show Family Guy, which was broadcast on BBC TV prior to an episode. Always experimenting with arrangement and musicality, Sam has created nine-part harmony versions of some of his favorite hymns that he originally posted on his YouTube channel; these songs have now received combined views well in excess of two million hits from all over the world.

Despite meeting Wikipedia's criteria of notability (2 albums on Acetate, Ramones-associated members), the information on the band is scarce and finding reliable sources is challenging (which is another reason this is a request for an article rather than an attempt to write one). The original publications of the independent materials (like those cited on the band's website) tend to be rarely available online and multilingual. Nevertheless, here is what I've managed to find so far: discography and line-up - http://www.allmusic.com/artist/sour-jazz-mn0000844853 , http://www.discogs.com/artist/2195615-Sour-Jazz , http://acetate.com/bands/sour-jazz/ ; 2010 Spanish tour with Daniel Rey - http://rockandrollarmy.com/magazine/magazine/breves/5241-sour-jazz-a-daniel-rey-gira-espanola-en-junio.html ; press-clipping from the Ghostrider label (featuring scanned review from the Rolling Stone Germany magazine) - http://pitshark.free.fr/ghost/sour_jazz_clippings_kit.pdf ; an early album review in a Spanish magazine (page 119) - http://denaflows.com/blog/InFocus/04/00.%20In%20Focus%2004.%20Extra%202002.pdf .Hope this would make it enough to get an article appear on the requested list, so that the better informed community members could be extending the material over time.

- 1991's Rode Hard - Put Away Wet included such singles as "Been Your Fool" and "Let Me Be The One", but failed to sell in huge quantities. The band would lose their major label contract yet surprisingly returned with another album in 1995.

- The New Division The New Division began as a college dorm room project for songwriter John Kunkel back in 2005. After moving from Uruguay (where he resided for 18 years) to Southern California. Kunkel began experimenting with synthesizers after being heavily influenced by the sounds of Joy Division, New Order, and Depeche Mode. Originally, the name “New Division” was meant as an artist working title for songs that would never be released. Within a few months Kunkel developed a series of songs that attracted other fellow college students at California Baptist University. By the end of 2007, the one man New Division project had transformed into a four piece. Michael Janz (aka “Janzie” by friends) was the first member to be added after Kunkel discovered the two shared common interests in musical tastes. Shortly thereafter both began playing mini-shows in their college dorm which eventually attracted a number of students, including Brock Woolsey who would later be recruited for an on campus battle of the bands to play guitar. After succesfully acheiving first place, The New Division started gaining attention in their local city of Riverside, CA. They were asked to play at several local venues, including the well adored “Back to the Grind” coffee house. During one of their many shows at this location the band met Mark Michalski, who at the time was a dedicated fan of the group. Kunkel, seeing the need for an additional keyboardist recruited Michalski who later played an integral part in shaping the band’s sound. https://www.discogs.com/artist/2335554-The-New-Division

- Tobias Meier (Born 1984, Zürich, CH) is a saxophonist and composer based in Zurich. He currently leads the ensemble Im Wald and he regularly plays and tours nationwide and internationally, for instance with Cold Voodoo (with bassist Silvan Jeger), with percussionist Norbert Pfammatter or singer Dalia Donadio. Tobias Meier has written and performed various works for solo saxophone. In addition, he is involved in long-term projects like Things to Sounds (with David Meier and Yves Theiler), as well as rather ephemeral constellations of experimental and improvised music. As a composer and improviser, he is interested in architectural gestures: the scenarios and methods of design, the setting of tonal coordinates, along which, the music gradually develops. For him, this process entails an irreducible experience that is to be re-engaged with again and again. For him, generating a musical space of sounds, time and pitches represents an event, rather than anything autocratic or finished: he explains that only the listener completes the music and assembles it to form a whole. For precisely this reason, he considers the shaping of music on an organisational, receptive and discursive level to be just as important as the actual playing of music: „It is not enough for me, simply to make music“ (Jazz Aktuell, 24/02/2015). As organiser of the concert series Seismogram, as co-founder of the self-run label Wide Ear Records, as editor of a zine for musicians (first released in 2015) and by designing and making his own CD covers, he quite tangibly shapes the appearance and framework conditions of music. What lies behind all this engagement is not only the immense love and passion that he obviously feels towards music, for which he keeps taking new risks, but also the ongoing implementation and further development of his ideas.

- Tom Salvatori (Born 1958, Lombard, IL USA) is an American Guitar Composer notable for composing a deeply personal and intimate style of instrumental Nylon String Guitar music, which is quiet and soothing and helps people relax at the end of the day. Tom is the younger brother of Michael Salvatori, also an American composer best known for his collaboration with colleague Martin O'Donnell for the soundtracks to the Halo video game series and more recently Destiny. Tom was a First Place Winner of the Illinois Music Association Senior Open in 1973 in the Classical Guitar competition at the age of 15 under the direction of his high school music teacher, the late Duane Tutaj. Salvatori exhibited a mature strength in restraint in his performance of the Villa Lobos set piece, Prelude #3. Tom continued Classical Guitar studies while in college (Marquette University) with Ray Mueller, head of the Milwaukee Classical Guitar Society. Since college, Tom has chosen a musical path of composing his own uniquely styled works for the contemporary Nylon String Guitar rather than one of stage performance and the study of the works of the Masters. Published by Les Productions D’Oz (CANADA) in 2004, Salvatori hopes to share his sheet music book of eleven Guitar solos with guitarists after they come home from playing their concerts: “I don’t aim to compete with the masters and their virtuoso efforts from the concert stage. Rather, I’d love for my work to be thought of as a resource for quiet enjoyment...a respite at the end of a busy day.” Salvatori's CDs are released independently through Salvatori Productions, Inc. record label that he owns with brother Mike. Eleven of Tom's titles are available: Under Cover of Darkness (1995, solo guitar recorded during a thunderstorm); Invoking the Veiled Reference (1997, solo guitar); Whispering for Your Attention (1998, solo guitar); Late Night Guitar (2002, guitar with ensemble); Tom Salvatori and Iris Litchfield - When Evening Falls (2007, guitar, piano and cello); Tu Sei Bella Aci Catena (EP) (2009, solo guitar, with title track sung in Italian by guest vocalist Massimo di Nocera); Tom Salvatori and Iris Litchfield - Ever Ever On (2-CD set) (2010, CD1 - guitar and piano in chamber string ensemble, CD2 - solo guitar, solo piano); On the Quiet Side of the Guitar (2012, solo guitar performance favorites), A Year in the Life (2013, solo guitar), Sketches (2015, solo guitar) and Parlour Favorites (2016, solo guitar). Both Late Night Guitar and When Evening Falls made their debut at #2 on the NAR Top 100 Radio Play Charts, with each continuing to hold top radio play honors through the end of their release years. Awards: Late Night Guitar was named Winner of a 2002 Children's Music Web Award in the Classic Recording for Children category. When Evening Falls was named Winner of the 2007 NAR Lifestyle Music Award as Best Neo-Classical Album of 2007 and was featured in several Top 10-Best of 2007 lists of prominent music reviewers in the contemporary instrumental music category.

- Tony Memmel (Americana / Singer/Songwriter / Folk - Tony Memmel is a songwriter and performer with unique charisma and creativity. Though he was born missing his left forearm, he taught himself to play the guitar by constructing a self-made cast out of Gorilla Tape that secures a guitar pick to his arm. Flawlessly, he picks and strums his guitar, and sings his songs with his subtle, yet powerful voice. Even in a busy room, people will pause to listen and take a photo of the man on stage. With powerful, personal lyrics and well-crafted melodies, his music stands alone. Memmel often says, “I don’t want to be a good guitarist with one hand, I want to be a great guitarist and songwriter, period.” Applying this attitude to his craft earned him the 2013 WAMI Award for Singer-Songwriter of the year, where he joined the ranks of fellow WAMI winners: Bon Iver, Les Paul, Cory Chisel, and the BoDeans. The press has also taken notice as he’s earned write-ups in the Associated Press, CNN, Boston Globe, Milwaukee Journal Sentinel, and Chicago Tribune.)

He left Greece having signed a contract at a Greek Club in Paris and it was there where the group was renamed to: TRIO HELLENIQUE. After Paris he worked in Brussels, Antwerp, Sweden and later in the Netherlands, where he achieved his first success by entering the Dutch Hit Parade with the song "Nina Nai" (a Turkish melody with Greek lyrics). Their LP's were a success and many songs entered the Top, songs such as "Marinela", "Varka sto Gialo", "Ela Ela" (girise se perimeno girise), "O Kaimos", "Ta Dakria" and of course the "Zorbas" for which a Golden Record was received. At 1970 he went to Greece and worked at the Hilton hotel for 3 years. After that he returned to Holland where eventhough he changed several singers, he maintained the TRIO until today, while now he only sings at various parties only for his friends.

- Triplets Ghetto Kids (https://tripletsghettokids.com/) (https://www.facebook.com/pg/TripletsGhettoKids/about/?ref=page_internal) Triplets Ghetto Kids (TGK) is a group of young entertainers from Kampala Uganda, East Africa. Founded by Dauda Kavuma, a former street kid himself,Triplets Ghetto Kids comprises orphaned and/or vulnerable children, 3 girls and 6 boys, ranging in age from 6 to 16 years, primarily hailing from the streets of Kampala after running away from their impoverished homes in search of food. Although these kids and many like them are given certain labels, for example, street kids, orphaned or vulnerable, disadvantaged, runaway kids etc, at Triplets Foundation, we acknowledge the fact that they individually have a unique story, which when one takes the time to listen to, may make one appreciate how these kids' experiences can help shed more light on the many things we do not know about .the disadvantaged children across the world. At their young and impressionable age, the kids have resorted to using music dance and drama as a way of staying away from the violence and poverty that they experienced on the streets. Surprisingly, this has developed into a movement which is yielding profound social consequences to many of our followers as evidenced by the many positive messages we get from all over the world. With the assistance and guidance of their guardian, who also choreographs the kids, Kavuma Dauda, TGK raise money from their live performances and when they are hired to dance to music of various artists in music videos. This is further supplemented by donations from a few individual well wishers. All the money is used to assist in providing them with a safe place to live, food, clothing, medical expenses, and to pay for their education. All the nine (9)Triplets Ghetto Kids members live with Kavuma Dauda together with ten(10) other vulnerable children who he and his wife take care of. Because Kavuma did something radically different from most people, the world is now able to learn a little more about the millions of ignored children across the globe.

- VAS LEON is a London born and raised in UK, singer, rapper, and producer - VAS LEON grew up listening to the likes of Stevie Wonder and Michael Jackson; of whom he says is his biggest musical influence. From a young age, VAS learned to play several instruments, and as a teenager found a profound connection and love for poetry. This inevitably lead to the spark that was to ignite his musical career.
After his time in university, VAS made the decision to peruse his music career at full force - fast gaining media exposure and commercial success that lead to being sponsored by the contemporary Shake company With great success gigging across the U.K., Europe and the states, VAS has since become a part of the successful Miami based collective GTPS. After being introduced to artist, DJ and producer Jeffrey ‘Disatronaut’, at his resident venue Dogstar, Brixton; VAS hosted and headlined a sell out event with the support of Jeff, where he then caught the eye of legendary record producer and DJ Arthur Baker. Whilst working with Arthur, VAS went on to travel with him taking his musical journey to the next level. VAS shared the stage with the likes of DJ Fresh and Ella Eyre whilst touring supporting Grammy award winning FatBoy Slim at Brixton o2 and The Warehouse Project Festival, gaining further exposure and momentum. VAS also went on to share the stage with chart topping London collective, WSTRN. Then came the release of his experimental EP titled NRD, which gained buzz up and down the UK, and across the world of social media. In 2016, VAS LEON came to release his long anticipated debut LP Krossover - an outstanding self produced body of work that creates an undeniable sound and collection of tracks relating to a universal audience. Krossover LP debuted at no. 14 in the UK Hip Hop charts. VAS LEON takes his already unconventional approach to rapping to an entire new level with his upcoming project ‘Krossover Deluxe’, introducing witty and intelligent punchlines, contrasted beautifully with emotion and darkness. His song ‘Only Human’ highlights the struggles of mental illness in a sensitive yet brutally honest manner. The unique sound of his voice and flow carry you through from start to finish, in what is nothing less than a thought provoking work of art. VAS LEON has truly come into his own and honed in on his craft and creative talents. He brings his own unheard of transatlantic flare to the urban and pop music industry.

- Veio (Band (Veio [Vay-oh] is an American Alternative Metal band formed in Portland, OR in 2010. The group currently consists of Cam Byrd on vocals/guitar, Trae Davis on lead guitar, Kris Lewis on bass, and Brett Byrd on drums.
With 2010's Victus per Leo EP, Veio quickly established themselves as one of the premier young bands in Portland's rock scene. Drawing attention from local crowds and promotors, Veio soon began playing as direct support for national touring acts such as Project 86, Hurt, Everclear, Rehab, Evaline, and more. Earning a slot on the main stage at the 2011 PDX Rockfest, the band also solidified themselves as a prominent figure in the NW rock and metal scene. With numbers in the hundreds showing up for their local headlining shows, it was clear that Veio was on the up and coming.
2013's full-length follow-up project, The Antidote, gave Veio an opportunity to further showcase their ability to write and compose music that held its intensity and hints of prog rock while also diving into a realm of serene, floating melodies and ardently tranquil guitar flavors. Alongside flagship single and album namesake The Antidote, Veio released likewise hard-hitting songs Race the Sun, Conversations, and Alpha. Furthermore with the single Monsters and mid-album drumless ballad Old Oregon Killing Fields, the band catered to the aforementioned softer, tranquil side of their sound.
After a brief hiatus due to member changes, 2016 brings Veio a new breath of excitement for the future. Having toured sparingly around the Pacific Northwest over 2015, the band is back on its feet and rolling. Regional and national tour dates are set as the band is looking to spread its new look, feel, and sound across the nation and beyond. The year is also promising as Veio is currently writing and soon-to-be recording a new record. With a fresh sound that's heavier and more mature and complex, the songs and album are sure to catch listeners with a wave of intense heavy grooves, complex time signatures, and soaring anthem-like vocal melodies.)

- The White Buffalo Music, [1,382], a country western/folk/blues/classic rock/organic Americana singer/songwriter whose tracks have appeared on TV shows Sons of Anarchy and Californication. Currently signed to Unison Music. Gigs with artists including Gomez, Ziggy Marley, and Donavon Frankenreiter and in locales as widespread as Japan and Australia spread the word of mouth about The White Buffalo. When pro surfer Chris Malloy heard Smith's music, he included the song "Wrong" in his movie Shelter, and White Buffalo tracks later appeared on the TV shows Sons of Anarchy and Californication. The 2010 EP Prepare for Black & Blue brought Smith to the attention of Unison Music, which signed The White Buffalo; the label's heads, Bruce Witkin and Ryan Dorn, also co-produced 2012's full-length Once Upon a Time in the West, featuring the talents of drummer Matt Lynott and bassist Tommy Andrews. The White Buffalo represents an authentic homage to the times of hard touring, hard drinking artists who truly lived what they sang about. Seamlessly moving from heartfelt ballads to raucous bar songs, The White Buffalo sings with honesty and thoughtful reflection as he travels the road, sharing his music. Everything about him is big, from his imposing physical size to his amazing vocal range. From his whiskey-drenched, growling lows to heart-stopping highs, The White Buffalo paints a touching picture, whether he stands alone or performs with his energetic, charismatic band. After vigorously road testing his new material, The White Buffalo is releasing his latest EP, Prepare for Black & Blue on Ruff Shod Records, State Radio's imprint label through Nettwerk, this fall. Produced by Jimmy Messer, this collection of songs showcases The White Buffalo's stripped down unmistakable sound. [1,383] [1,384] [1,385] [1,386] [1,387] [1,388] [1,389]

...drummer/composer, grew up within a musical family in Greenwich Village, New York City. With the help of his early drum teacher, Dave Anania (Blue Man Group), Miles learned to play the drums by listening to his favorite songs and playing along with them verbatim. His drumming, which can be described as a mixture of Tony Allen and Ringo Starr, is heavily influenced by his father (trumpeter Leif Arntzen) and his mentors Stuart Bogie and Billy Martin, along with Greg Errico, Max Roach, Prince, Chris Vatalaro, Jon Theodore, John Bonham and Joey Kramer. At New York University he has studied with Ari Hoenig, Tony Moreno, Wayne Krantz and Lenny Pickett.

From the Big Apple to the sandy shores of North Miami Beach, Brooklyn's EMEFE — the brainchild of Miles Arntzen, who toured with Arcade Fire's Will Butler as Arcade Fire's drummer during his 2015 spring tour — will be making its 305 debut during this year's TransAtlantic fest.

What was the highlight of 2015, for either you personally or for the band? What was the low point? Highlight: Putting together my touring band. Miles Arntzen as standing drummer, Julie Shore as keyboard bassist, Sara Dobbs on mellotron, and everyone on vocals. Lowlight: You know what? I love Austin, but SXSW kind of sucks.
- ^ VALENTINO, SILAS (2015-08-31). "EMEFE EMBRACE THE RHYTHMS OF NEW YORK'S EVERYDAY STATIC". The Village Voice. Retrieved 2016-02-23.
Miles Arntzen founded the eight-piece ensemble (pronounced Em-eff-ay) as a freshman at NYU and spent the past six years evolving the band's blend of Fela Kuti–inspired Afrobeat with dashes of Prince- and David Byrne–channeling pop orchestration. The band spent two years writing EMEFE and recorded the tracks at percussionist Javier Ramos's family home in Franklin Lakes, New Jersey. After the bulk of the songs had been composed, Arntzen stumbled across the book And There Was Light by Jacques Lusseyran, a member of the French Resistance during World War II. The author's account of having his remaining senses drastically heightened after he became blind appealed to Arntzen, as did Lusseyran's comments on self-exploration: You either confront yourself and progress or fail to develop and become lost.
