* Jam Busters
The JAM BUSTERS are a bluegrass power trio consisting of Justin Auld (guitar, vocals), Jed Mitchell (mandolin, vocals) and Matt Donahue (bass, vocals). Playing more obscure and challenging bluegrass songs and tunes, the JAM BUSTERS strive to push the boundaries of traditional jamming to the limit.
* Bug Toast
Bug Toast defy categorization, playing genre-bending progressive chamber folk on zouk, accordion, guitars, bass, violin, synthesizer, and percussion. Major themes of their music center on social justice and deep human experience.
Blended from two musical families, the ensemble creates the arrangements together – richly textured, interwoven pieces with careful attention to counterpoint, voicing, harmonies, and rhythms, often in interesting modes and time signatures. Bug Toast are Christopher Shotola-Hardt (zouk, bass, vocals), Susanne Shotola-Hardt (accordion), Mark Andrews (guitars, vocals), Dave Andrews (guitars, zouk, vocals), Adrian Hardt (bass, synth, vocals), Julian Andrews (violin)
