THE Other Band
"Pop-Folk with Blues Attitude"
| THE Other Band is three singer-songwriters and a bassist consisting of veteran musicians James "The Emergency Folksinger" Nason on vocals and guitars, Kathe "Little Mama" Davis on vocals, guitars and mandolin, Paul "Logic Man" Sandoval on vocals, guitar and percussion, and David "Professor Ooh" Pengra on fretless bass. If it's listening pleasure you're after, it doesn't get any better than the powerful harmonies, always interesting and often moving lyrics, and tight instrumentation of this all-original quartet. |

The RooTsters
Singer-Songwriters
The RooTsters are Alan Kausal and Stanislove, singer-songwriters in the folk-blues tradition who blend American acoustic- and pop guitar styles into intimate conversations, edgy rants, and suspiciously improbable tales. The result is our own special blend of acoustic music that pays respect to the famous American artists who influenced us and all the forgotten immigrants who came before. |

You'll walk away with images that will stick for a lifetime. And a nearly-full tub of popcorn...
