SUMMARY:Field Division
DESCRIPTION:Field Division is a Des Moines based folkwave duo whose songs explore the line where dreams and reality blur\, where sound waves and stories intertwine. The rich and hauntingly beautiful music created by Evelyn Taylor and Nicholas Frampton\, is a blend of classic songwriting (think 60s/70s folk rock vibes) and modern dream pop.\n\nWith Evelyn’s lush\, ethereal vocals and Nicholas’ polished harmonies\, Field Division is sure to lure listeners with their debut EP\, “Reverie State.” The duo’s poignant and grand soundscapes transport audiences to the lands and experiences they sing of. From the wanderlust inducing lead single\, “Faultlines\,” with tribal drums and brooding guitars\, to the cinematic and heart-wrenching “Hollow Body Weather\,” the duo weaves ambient dream-pop and folk rock into a tapestry of story and enchantment.\n\nThey are currently in the studio working on their first full-length record.

SUMMARY:Deer Tick "Acoustic" Tour
DESCRIPTION:John McCauley\, the songwriter behind Deer Tick \, spent his childhood in Rhode Island teaching himself to play the drums\, guitar\, piano\, and pedal steel. In high school\, he began recording his own compositions and touring the area. After graduation he expanded his tours throughout the country.\n\nAlthough McCauley performed primarily as a solo artist\, he soon added drummer Dennis Ryan to his group.\n\nDeer Tick began earning comparisons to Bright Eyes\, Modest Mouse\, and Uncle Tupelo after the release of their first album\, War Elephant\, in September of 2007.\nShortly after in 2009 and 2010\, the band released Born on Flag Day and The Black Dirt Sessions.\n\nTheir fourth album\, Divine Providence\, was rowdy and raucous\, heavily inspired by the styles of the Rolling Stones and the Stooges. Negativity\, their most recent album released in 2013\, revisits darker times including a wrenching breakup ballad.\n\nRachel Bailey of Paste Magazine reviewed Negativity pointing out that “their songwriting has improved as they’ve explored the not-so-good-times.”

SUMMARY:Dawn of Midi
DESCRIPTION:Brooklyn-based acoustic trio Dawn of Midi consists of bassist Aakaash Israni\, pianist Amino Belyamani and drummer Qasim Naqvi\, who met as students playing late-night tennis at California Institute of the Arts. On the group's second album\, Dysnomia (written by Belyamani and Israni)\, Dawn of Midi utilizes sophisticated rhythmic structures from North and West African folk traditions to weave a sonic tapestry of trance-inducing grooves. The music sounds electronic\, but it’s performed live on acoustic instruments. Dysnomia was listed on Best Albums of 2013 by The New Yorker\, NPR Music\, and BBC Radio 3. Jad Abumrad did a short on Dawn of Midi on Radiolab\, uses their music occasionally to accompany stories on the show\, and described their sound as “sort of like ancient folk music\, filtered through highly obsessive computers that actually aren’t computers but people.” Pitchfork calls their music “totally unprecedented\,” and Rolling Stone said their sonic results are “brain-bending\, seemingly impossible.”

SUMMARY:Adia Victoria
DESCRIPTION:29-year-old Nashville-based singer Adia Victoria is making her mark on the southern-rock and old-school-country scene. Born and raised in South Carolina\, she moved to Nashville by way of New York and Atlanta. Her primitive songs on misery\, madness\, hope beyond reason and the eponymous South are heavily influenced by Johnny Cash\, Hank Williams\, and Patsy Cline. A gifted poet and songwriter\, Adia tells stories in her music. She got into the music of raw Delta blues legends Robert Johnson and Junior Kimbrough\, a discovery that helped her make sense of being black and from the South in a way she never had before.\n\n"I don’t know nothing ‘bout Southern belles/ But I can tell you something ‘bout Southern hell\," she sings on “Stuck in the South\,” a swampy ballad from her debut three-song EP\, Sea of Sand\, which she released in the spring of 2015.
