Tim Easton September 24, 2006

Tim Easton's heartland melodies and easy-going insights are a kind of country-meets-folk style of rock that allows him to deliver a modern rock take on the folk music of the past. Richard Buckner is a alt-country singer from San Francisco. Beirut is the name of 20-year-old Santa Fe native Zach Condon's one man band. Assisted by Jeremy Barnes and Heather Trost, it combines elements of Eastern European and folk sounds. Eric Bachmann is from Crooked Fingers.
