BIG JUGS (Santa Barbara)
Sometimes controversial, sometimes semi-offensive, but always humorous and not afraid to say it: They love big jugs. The boys of Big Jugs love a number of other things, too, but due to strict codes of ethics, those things can’t be listed here. Nevertheless, their special brand of alt-bluegrass ain't no novelty act, it's honest-to-goodness goodness.

WOLF HAMLIN & THE FRONT PORCH DRIFTERS (Livermore)
Wolf and his rowdy bunch burst on to the national music scene in 2012 after appearing on American Idol season 11 and taking his smokey sweet voice on the road with his outlaw country band The Front Porch Drifters. Wolf, a Kansas boy, grew up working on engine blocks in his living room while Hank Williams Jr. and Waylon Jennings records played incessantly. A prolific song writer and story teller Wolf Hamlin brings a new voice and sound to a genre influenced by Willie, Cash, Haggard, Jr. and Jennings. Standing 6' 3" and over 225 lbs. Wolf brings down the house every night with his powerful vocals, contagious energy and a reputation of keeping the party going well after closing time. While Wolf plays the Git-Fiddle, The Front Porch Drifters stay in the pocket for groove stomping diddies, but improvisational violin and guitar solos are a staple in every set. Based out of Livermore, CA the band is looking for venues to deliver there live show mojo...this IS the band your mom warned you about

KEMO SABE (SF)
Many people thought Kemo Sabe to be dead, or at least its members to be either in jail or rehab. Not surprising with this band. But lucky for us, they have crawled out of their man caves and are playing music better than ever. Kemo Sabe play what they call "modern-day campfire songs" with the bare-wire energy of punk rock. They kick around a variety of genres from bluegrass to klezmer, from rock n' roll to gypsy. The band honed their chops playing such diverse venues as street corners, Taco Bell, musical saw festivals, and punk rock clubs and over the years have created their very own unique style of "alt-bluegrass" and have developed a reputation for zany stage antics and solid picking and slapping.

THREE TIMES BAD (SF)
This indie stringband embraces the dirty roots of American music: bent blues and bluegrass, drunk country, anti-folk, story songs, hillbilly swing, hot singalongs, freak preachery and murder ballads from the dark side of loving the reverend’s wife on a bed o’ cornbread crumbs. It’s like the devil went down on Georgia in San Francisco’s Mission District (and the worldwideweb watches on streaming video).
