Shoot Out The Lights

Shoot Out the Lights is everything the band's name suggests and much more. Armed with loads of enthusiasm and never forgetting to Roll along with the Rock, the influences and efforts of this Cincinnati/Northern Kentucky based quintet are apparent on their newly released, self titled album. The band's songs range from heartfelt love songs to more up-front sexual notions, and get-after-it rock n' roll party songs. The band is working hard to gain regional recognition and performances include songs from the new album, a mix of other new and old originals, and occasional select cover songs. Live, the vocal blending and wholehearted performances of Josh and Elaina is something music fans need to experience. According to Cincinnati journalist Danielle Custentino of Cincinnati Metromix Magazine, "Move over, Rhett Miller, Cincinnati has its own upbeat, Americana infused rock band that surpasses your Old 97s. Yes, you heard me correctly. I went there." Mike Breen of City Beat had this to say; "While the songs...have a Roots aftertaste, this is more soulful, melodic Rock than AltCountry. Singer Josh Muddiman has a perfect Rock & Roll voice, which is bathed in a smoky rasp, giving the melodies and lyrics an extra "lived-in" depth."

Terminal Union

Terminal Union is a Cincinnati based alt-country band showcasing true roots, folk and americana songwriting and musicianship. Our goal is to take our music deeper than the pop song and into a world of dreams, fears, hopes and mans walk through life. We take a minimalist approach to our music and band - as few musicians as possible covering as much ground as possible. You'll hear acoustic guitars, harmonies, banjo, fiddle, bass, percussion, harmonicas. This is stripped-down music from the heart of a genre that has produced national treasures such as Wilco, Son Volt, The Avett Brothers, Old Crow Medicine Show, Unle Tupelo, Townes Van Zandt, Justin Townes Earl.

Shiny Old Soul

Shiny Old Soul is a guitar/bass/drum trio comprised of former members of The Gregory Morris Group (Cincinnati, Ohio).

One part jazz, one part folk, one part punk, one part rock, but it's really all about the songs.

Bank robberies, pregnant pirates, time travelers, voodoo spells, allegory, and plain old sex, drugs and rock 'n' roll conspire to reveal a world of simple feelings in exotic places. A broken heart by any other name...

Currently SOS is working towards a different spin to our sound, breaking away (yet not forever or entirely) from the electric rock jam sound we've did for many years as GMG and experimenting with breaking things down a bit into an eclectic rootsy acoustic approach. Incorporating banjitar, upright bass, simple yet versatile percussion kit, harmonies, to create a delivery that is More intimate, more dynamic, more jazz man one the street, more folk around the fire. Please Stay tuned for our ever evolving musical experience, as we long to share this with you.

Jims

New solo project from the singer, songwriter, guitarist, percussionist, bassist for Sweet Ray Laurel, Good Night Noises, Smoke Signals…, Martin Luther & The Kings, Silver Bridge Disaster, But You Are The Messiah, Bonston, Prick B. Mafia, Sparkin' Hand Steve, GDS and Code Red.

The Cincy Brass

"N'awlins Soul Meets Cincinnati Funk" - That is the best way to describe The Cincy Brass. This 9-piece brass band has the essence of Bourbon St, funk, hip-hop, and jazz all wrapped into an epic explosion of sound and passion. Whether it be an original off of their upcoming debut album, a mind-blowing twist on a cover of a pop hit (Beyonce, James Brown, Def Leppard, Lady Gaga, George Michaels, etc), or an old time N'awlins street music hit, The Cincy Brass delivers a performance that can't be duplicated. The band has exploded onto the scene in the past two years, performing at some of Cincinnati's hippest music venues and biggest festivals. You also may have seen the brass at Reds games and opening for acts like 311, Sublime, Foreigner, Blessid Union of Souls, and Journey. Make sure you don't miss The Cincy Brass. Oh yea...don't forget to bring some beads!


"Sometimes, simplicity is complicated. This formula is one of the best I've ever sampled. Ten dudes + ten cohesively-played instruments + Cincy-sass + choice covers + rabid fun = an entire set devoted to getting your dance groove ON" - Monty shoutOUT Sixth Ed. 2011

"People were screaming (literally) with joy, and dancing maniacs made the party all the more fun and sweaty" - Metromix Cincinnati
