Buffalo Rose

Buffalo Rose is a modern folk band from Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania with a penchant for harmony and an intense love of the natural world. The band's lineup has snowballed from its inception in the spring of 2016 to include three vocalists (Mariko Reid, Lucy Clabby, and Shane McLaughlin) and four string instruments: guitar (Shane McLaughlin), dobro (Malcolm Inglis), bass (Jason Rafalak) and mandolin (Bryce Rabideau). These unique musical ingredients come together in a mesmerizing harmonic puzzle that is at times haunting, other times foot-tapping, and always a good time. After just six months together Buffalo Rose put out their debut EP, Red Wagon, in November 2016. After an energetic response to this bite-sized record, the group continued to use their momentum to begin work on their first full-length album 'The Soil and the Seed,' available as of March 2018, while sharing the stage with a variety of national acts including The Infamous Stringdusters, The Dustbowl Revival, Yarn, Kuinka, and Dangermuffin. Now you can find them on tour around the Eastern US as well as occasionally in Pittsburgh to support their recent release. View Profile.


Byron Nash and PlanB

BYRON NASH & PLANB are a Pittsburgh-based 5-piece band who have created quite the buzz in just a short amount of time. The group is comprised of talented heavyweights who are all known for their high-level of musicianship. The band has been packing shows around the city of Pittsburgh with word-of-mouth about their electrifying live performances. After only a year together, PLANB - comprised of Byron Nash (guitars/vocals), Evan Thorsen (guitars), Philip Price (bass), George Barron (drums) and Randraiz Wharton (keys) - released their debut EP “The Late Bloomer” in November of 2016. The six-track EP is an introduction to their eclectic sound that effortlessly mixes blues, funk, soul, jazz, guitar-driven heavy rock with a singer/songwriter vibe. While they always sound like themselves, one moment PLANB’s music can be straightforward and simplistic soul, while the next moment, loud and aggressive rock-and-roll with some gospel chops thrown in for good measure. Even with various music styles, the group has a tight and cohesive sound that has the ability to satisfy the rock fan all the way down to the jazz fan, all while taking the listener on a colorful, musical journey.

Charm & Chain

Charm & Chain is a four piece original groove- rock band based out of Pittsburgh, PA. Beginning in late 2012 as singer/songwriter Laurie Kudis's (keys/vocals) solo project with the release of 'Heliacal Rise', a full band rapidly assembled and began writing and performing locally. Eric Koester (bass/vocals) and Ben Sukenik (drums/vocals) were integral in defining the sound and in writing new material for the release of 'I Know What You Are' (2014) and along with Laurie, form the current line-up. Eric DiFiore (guitar/vocals) joined the group in 2015 and the chemistry between the four was instant. The members of Charm & Chain challenge and inspire each other musically and feed off of each others' energy and intensity. Pulling from a deep vault of influences, Charm & Chain likes to explore spacey psychedelic grooves, earthy rock jams, shimmery and engaging melodies, and provocative lyrics. Plenty of Places to Go, the third release LP from C&C is available everywhere, and with plenty of more original material written, plans to record a 4th release are underway. Stay tuned!
