About Mt. St. Helens Vietnam Band
This Seattle quintet never settles for the status quo. Bluesy single-note guitar lines compete with jagged chording, the bass thumps out counter-melodies, strained yelping dissolves into pastoral harmony. Yet it all coheres thanks to frontman Benjamin Verdoes' pop instincts and the band's jittery energy. Hear how Mt. St. Helens explodes expectations.” ~Spin

Seattle indie-rockers Mt. St. Helens Band are a rollicking quartet who formed in 2008, their songs powerful compositions of classic rock and blues. Over the years they've moved away from comparisons to Modest Mouse and Wolf Parade, venturing into musical territory that has earned them continued noteworthy comparisons, this time to Arcade Fire and Pink Floyd. Led by a husband and wife duo, and a 15-year-old drummer who also doubles as the lead-singers brother, this crew lives up to expectations of a glowing future with songs that are grand and layered, vocals equally uplifting and unsettling. Their latest album, Where The Messengers Meet, is a notable collection of infectious songs. Come see what all the fuss is about.

About The Chapin Sisters
"The one virtue the Chapin Sisters shares with classic sister acts of old becomes apparent when they sing together: that shiver of spotless, familial unity that makes every syllable woundingly poignant."
~ Flavorpill

Abigail and Lily Chapin are The Chapin Sisters, two L.A. based siblings who are masters of simple harmonies and instrumentation, creating folk music that is full of intricacy and emotional resonance. Their latest album, Two, is a second album that resonates with their dark humor, lush songs that have traces of jazz and country interspersed with its folk roots. With Abigail on guitar, keyboards, flute, and percussion and Lily on guitar, banjo, keyboards, and percussion, the two bring their talents together into a seductive treasure.

About Steve Poltz
“He trick-or-treated at Liberace's house, planned a two-day stay in Amsterdam that ended a month later with him escaping the city under the cover of darkness, and was Bob Hope's favorite altar boy. Alone, these anecdotes go well with a fistful of peanuts at a cocktail party. But on top of these add that this person also co-wrote the longest-running song on the Billboard Top 100, had a debut solo album that earned three and a half stars in Rolling Stone, and was awarded the title of "San Diego's Most Influential Artist of the Decade" at the San Diego Music Awards. What you end up with is one of the most engaging, twisted, and prolific songwriters of our time” – KINK

Canadian-born American singer-songwriter Steve Poltz is best known for his work with fokstress Jewel and for co-writing her infamous song, “You Were Meant For Me.” But his history extends far beyond that, his knack for writing catchy, melodic, folk-pop finding form in the popular indie-rock band The Rugburns, and now, his acoustic shows. With a slew of albums under his belt, Poltz is a master at crafting simple melodies with a satirical edge. His humor and his charm are undeniable.
