(Greenway Records, Slovenly Recordings)Bloodshot BILL (Montreal)
BLOODSHOT BILL started in his hometown of Montreal around 1998, with just a guitar and a stomp board. Since then, he's had over 30 releases and played all over the world. Artist JOE COLEMAN once called him "a cross betwen Jimmie Rodgers & Popeye", and director JOHN WATERS says he's "like Roy Orbison with a head wound”. (Norton Records - Where the Loud Sound Abounds!, Goner Records, PIG BABY Records, many many more)The Surfrajettes (Toronto)
Psychedelic instro surf band. (Hi-Tide Recordings)The Brooklyn Bluebirds (NYC)

Going Up! The Elevator Operators have the button of the lift pushed to the 1960s rock 'n roll floor.The Hi-Risers
The Hi-Risers are a three piece, song oriented rock & roll band. Drawing their inspiration from the 1950’s and early 1960’s, you’ll hear all the genres that influenced the creation of rock & roll in their music, from rockabilly to rhythm & blues, brill building pop to doo-wop, country to surf. The Hi-Risers energetic performances have been welcome across the USA and Europe. (Hi-Tide Recordings, Sleazy Records)The Fox Sisters
The Fox Sisters are six piece hard drivin’ high energy all original rock&roll&rhythm&blues dance band. Rochester NY's premier party starters. (Dive)Televisionaries
The Televionaries are a 3 piece rock n roll band from Rochester NY. They are also brothers.
(Reel Time)Harmonica Lewinski
Out for kicks, Harmonica Lewinski plays music that has been called "tropical trash, greasy garage, dirty disco, and party punk." In between touring the USA and releasing a slew of vinyl and cassette tapes, they have built a following with their original sound and dance-party live shows. Calling all freaks - get to the go-go. (Reel Time)Aweful Kanawful & His Rubber Husband's Band
The image and sound of Aweful Kanawful is a fun interpretation of what goes on in front-man Austin's mind; a grand experiment with more than desirable results. It's a circus, it's a party, it's a collaboration, it's sure to get the crowd excited and moving. (Chocolate Chin)Dangerbyrd

Rock’n’Roll from the garage.Beef Gordon
