WNL: Steve Frame and His Western Rebels
You stand at the intersection of Steve Frame and the Western Rebel Sound. It’s what we all need now more than ever! It’s a refresher in everything real about country & western music. It’s where Buck Owens and Bob Wills meets the Beatles and the Byrds. Steve set out from the start to revitalize and put his unique signature on the music that he knows and loves so well. And what’s on deck: his upcoming CD release, Built For Speed.

WNL: Lao Tizer
Driven by an explosive mix of jazz, rock, classical , jam band influences and Afro Cuban and world rhythms, Downbeat—the first studio album by TIZER, a multi-cultural band led by Boulder, CO native, keyboardist/composer Lao Tizer—throws down a high powered collection of 12 brand-new originals on this scintillating release of fresh instrumental music from one of today’s rising stars of the world-fusion genre. Establishing themselves in the contemporary jazz world over the past few years, TIZER has spurred comparisons of a modern twist to the 70s and early 80s heyday of jazz fusion, when trailblazing ensembles like Return To Forever, Mahavishnu Orchestra and Weather Report set the aesthetic standard.

WNL: Andy Hackbarth
Award-Winning Folk Singer/Songwriter and Classical-Flamenco Guitarist
Andy Hackbarth was raised on the idea that music can paint colors more vivid than any paintbrush. He does just that, weaving the world of flamenco and classical guitar into an arsenal of upbeat, contemporary-folk songs that are 100 percent, unmistakably Andy Hackbarth.
In 2006, Andy left his parents' llama ranch and the Colorado mountains behind for the bright (neon) lights of Music City, USA to raise his craft as a songwriter and performer to a new level.

Not your typical “folkie” chick band, The Gristle Gals is a Colorado based band that formed in 2008. They combine their backgrounds in classical, folk, bluegrass, gypsy, and jazz with a decidedly unique view of the world. The result?
