ABOUT THE BANDS:

RIVULETS (Bloomington, IN)
"Primarily the work of one gent Nathan Amundson, Rivulets has been graced with some notable guest players over the years including Alan Sparhawk and Mimi Parker of the likemindedly somber Low. On You Are My Home, Amundson is joined by the none too shabby musical guests Codeine's Chris Brokaw, Jessica
Bailiff, Christian Frederickson of Rachel's, Boxhead Ensemble's Fred Lonberg-Holm and Bob Weston of Shellac and Mission Of Burma. Their combined guitars, keyboards, strings and horns work together with Amundson's heartbroken voice magically to create a deep dark melancholia."- Aquarius

MARGO MAY (Manhattan, KS)
"Margo May is a singer/songwriter from Manhattan, KS. She has been playing all over the Manhattan / Kansas City area for the past couple of years, and with each show she has gained more and more of a following. Her lyrics are endearing narratives, bordering lullabies at times, yet always chartering strange ground uncommon for artists in her genre. Musically, she is a free spirit - almost never playing a song the same twice, yet only changing minor things, such as time signatures and chord changes. The changes are not at all distracting, they are actually endearing, and they show off Margo's musical talent." -Dusty Bookshelf

FIVE FOOT NINE (Chicago, IL)
"Immediate comparisons may be drawn with the New Pornographers, but a more fitting barometer may be the Billy Bragg and Wilco Mermaid Avenue sessions. Perhaps this is due to the striking backing vocals of Laura Coleman, who at times has an uncanny resemblance to Natalie Merchant..."
"Back To The Tunnels," and its roots-influenced, jangle pop, is an instantly likable lead number, even if I continue to mishear the chorus as "Turn on the television" instead of "Turn on the tunnel vision." The harmonies between Hushel and Coleman on the Spanish tinged folk of "O La Moana" are another definite highlight, and I can't help but start toe-tappin and head boppin when Coleman takes the lead on the playful and soulful "Sugar. - irockcleveland
