Liam and Layne Jordan, twin brothers hailing from the remote landscapes of rural Wyoming, form an inseparable musical duo that channels the spirit of the West into their music. Raised against the backdrop of wide-open spaces, their harmonies echo the vastness of the Wyoming skies. Drawing inspiration from the natural beauty surrounding them, the duo infuses energetic elements of folk, rock, bluegrass, and Americana into their compositions. With an undeniable sibling synergy, Liam and Layne take listeners on a musical journey that mirrors the untamed spirit of their Wyoming roots.  

When Liam and Layne were just ten years old, they unearthed their father's acoustic guitar from the confines of the closet. Their budding enthusiasm for music became increasingly apparent, evolving into a genuine passion for the guitar. What began as open mic nights swiftly transformed into performances at clubs and festivals. Their musical journey reached new heights in 2023, sharing bills with notable acts such as Jalan Crossland, Shawn Hess and the Country Skillet, Christian Wallowing Bull, Cousin Curtiss, The White Buffalo, and The Po’ Ramblin’ Boys.

Following two years of honing their craft through live performances and songwriting, Liam and Layne made the decision to compile a series of original songs. The result is a studio EP titled “Don’t Slow Down”, released in June of 2024. 

Psych folk rock band, Forest Ray, began as a recording project in 2015, combining guitar driven psych rock with elements of garage rock, folk rock and organ-laden pop. They've been described as "Brit-pop gone country" or as "..The Band covering Beatles songs no one knew existed.”  (Tony Kay, Washington's Artist Home blog). The group's sound has evolved from 60's psychedelic garage rock into spaced-out, down to earth rock n' roll, that feels “like a perfect companion for a long dusty road trip” (KEXP, Chris Sanley) 

Jalan Crossland is nationally acclaimed by audiences, critics, and his musical peers as being a premier acoustic guitarist, banjo player, singer-songwriter, and engaging showman. Along with dozens of regional contest awards, his extraordinary guitar work earned him National Fingerstyle Guitar Championship Runner Up honors in ’97 and the State Flatpick Championship title of his home state in 1999. His 2017 album, “Singalongs For The Apocalypse”, won Wyoming Public Radio’s People’s Choice - Album Of The Year award. In recognition for his contribution to the arts in Wyoming, he was bestowed the Governor’s Arts Award in 2013.

Join us for an elevated evening of smooth jazz, fine wine, and artfully crafted charcuterie. The Hayden Quintet will set the tone with their rich, soulful sound — the perfect soundtrack to an intimate night at The Colonel. Sip, savor, and sway.

The Texas-based singer-songwriter spent most of his early twenties in isolation, working hard shoeing horses. This lifestyle laid the groundwork and set the stage for him to write hundreds of songs, eventually leading to an opportunity to record his first full album, ‘West of East’. Emphasizing social media marketing, the records and singles achieved immediate success in the Texas country format, laying a strong foundation for the next chapter of his musical journey. Jarrod aims to capture the free, wild spirit of the American Cowboy, with smooth, memorable melodies and gritty vocals that can range from a sensitive, contemplative, lonely late-night drive to a full-on summertime folk-rock revival. Jarrod's musical influences are wide and it shows, often making formatting and placement difficult. However, this is purposeful. Jarrod believes that the music he is planning to release will appeal to a very broad audience. Fans often use a wide variety of references to describe his style, including Tom Petty, Kacey Musgraves, Ryan Bingham, Sting, John Mellencamp, and Ryan Adams. Jarrod's musical personality can best be described as an indie sound and old soul with a dedicated modern songwriter's heart.

The Rangers

The Rangers are a Lowell Indiana based 5 piece band playing Country Rockin’, Honky Tonkin’, Texas Country music!  With 4 albums, 5 singles, their goal is to "bring country music back to its roots!" The band is currently touring and has headlined venues like Cactus Jack's in Phoenix AZ, The Law Office Music Hall in Yorkville, IL, The Phoenix Saloon in New Braunfels, TX, And Carol's Pub in Chicago, IL.

Origins & Discography

The Rangers hail from Lowell Indiana and have been writing and playing their original music since right around 2021, and haven’t quit since. The band currently has three albums released; the first (The Bayou) being a swampy voodoo album inspired by artists like Charlie Daniels, Jerry Reed, and all the old timey delta blues artists from the 30s and 40s. The second album (Way Of The West) is a an epic, Wild West, southern rock tale inspired by the likes of Ennio Morricone’s scores, Marty Robbin’s cowboy ballads, and some good ol’ fashioned rock n’ roll. Fast forward to the band’s 3rd album “Roll The Dice”; a twangy, honky Tonkin’, hell raisin’ country album about rolling the dice on life, and various day to day struggles, couched in Vegas casino themes.

Influenced by artists like Waylon Jennings, and Merle Haggard as well as some newer artists including Jesse Daniel, Silverada, Charley Crockett, and The Shootouts, The Rangers plan to continue their vision for bringing country music back to it’s roots, with their brand new album "Cowboy In A Bottle", chock full of steel guitar, fiddle, horns and good Ol’ honky tonk twang! The band is forging ahead with their vision of bringing real country music back; in the biggest and flashiest way possible!

After thirty years as one of the world’s leading Celtic Rock bands, The Young Dubliners have begun work on their tenth studio album (with longtime producer Irish-born Tim Boland) while still maintaining their busy tour schedule. They have returned to the road post-pandemic stronger than ever and determined to bring their fusion of Celtic and rock music to as many people as they can.

The band is Keith Roberts (vocals / guitar), Chas Waltz (Violin, keys, vocals), Justin Pecot (guitar, vocals), Dave Ingraham (drums) and Ethan Jones (bass guitar). With a batch of incredible new songs and an undeniable energy, the band is excited to bring their show to festivals, theaters and clubs around the world.

“We want to be the band who reminds the world how important a good gig can be to our sanity after what we’ve all been through,” says Roberts.

For only the second time the band is looking to its fans to finance the album instead of a traditional record company.

“The business has changed so much over our lifetime that it no longer makes sense for us to take money from a label and then owe it all back,” adds Roberts. “Making all our supporters co-producers is a far more rewarding way to make a record and allows us to maintain control all the way”.

The Young Dubliners have released nine albums to date. In recent years, the band has appeared twice on ABC’s Jimmy Kimmel Live, had songs featured in TV shows (Sons Of Anarchy, Human Target) and toured extensively as a headliner and as the opener for such a diverse list of artists as Collective Soul, Jethro Tull, Johnny Lang, Los Lobos and Chris Issak.

Although the Young Dubliners sound is most commonly called Celtic Rock, that label can often be misleading. The Irish influence is certainly there, but it’s not the only influence that bursts through on their albums or live shows. After all, several of the band members have no Irish roots of any kind.

“That was always the idea,” Roberts said. “The sound was intended to be a hybrid because we all come from different backgrounds. Even though I am from Ireland, a lot of the music I listened to growing up wasn’t Irish at all, but when I got here, I got homesick and developed a new appreciation for Irish Music. In truth the Celtic riffs can just as easily come from the American band members. Everyone writes now so you never know what you’ll end up with.”

We started like all the great bands before us - a few college dropouts in a crappy triplex apartment, snacking on leftover pizza, trying to tease out a melody from some beat-up old guitars. This was in 2013 and, while our band looks a whole lot different, we still believe that music is the great connector, the great equalizer, and a powerful healing force we all need to feel hope, joy, and connection.

Andrew Sheppard never wanted to be a professional musician. As a kid, he dreamed of being a professional skateboarder.

Right after high school, he moved from small-town Hailey, Idaho to Los Angeles to pursue his pro skating dream. Unfortunately, his career was cut short by a debilitating injury. He turned to music as a means of salvation. 

While skating consumed his teenage years, he grew up surrounded by music, listening to his mom play in rock n roll and blues bands. He took up the bass and was kicking around in ragtag punk bands until he started writing his own songs. 

L.A. proved the perfect place to reinvent himself. He started playing guitar and fronting his own band and dove into a burgeoning L.A. Americana music scene. A move to Nashville in 2013 resulted in a debut album, Far From Here in 2015, and the follow-up, Steady Your Aim, in 2018. When the pandemic hit, all bets were off. He moved back to Idaho to regroup.   

In 2022, Sheppard represented Idaho on NBC’s American Song Contest show with his original song "Steady Machine", which was released on Atlantic records, which garnered him national and international recognition. 

Check out this video of the show: Listen to Steady Machine

That sudden burst of notoriety and interest opened the door for Sheppard to work with some of his heroes: Ron Lapread (bassist of the Commodores), drummer, Manu Katche (Sting and Peter Gabriel), and bass player Guy Pratt (Pink Floyd, Madonna, Michael Jackson, Iggy Pop) in Paris, London and Auckland, New Zealand. Unfortunately, Sheppard’s been in a holding pattern due to a familiar tale in the music biz, a bad record deal and disagreements with a producer. He used the time to write and record a new album in his Idaho studio, The Beauty Shop    

The album to be released in 2025 is a more straightforward rock ’n’ roll record than his previous work and will appeal to fans of Tom Petty, The Growlers, Cross Canadian Ragweed, Black Lips, Deer Tick and the like. 

After nearly two years in the recording studio, Sheppard is ready rock and to get back on the road with his band and connect with old and new fans alike.
