Belldiver

“Music for driving down long country roads, sipping whisky, and celebrating love, life and colorful characters. Texas-style rock flavored with a folky, bluesy twang and sprinkled with sweltering solos on guitar, sax and keys. Belldiver’s music is atmospheric, authentic and diverse. It spans from guitar-laden rock to thoughtful indie-folk with many colors in between.

At its core, Belldiver’s identity is in the clever and insightful lyrics penned by frontman Jason Shepherd. Jason crafts compelling stories of every mood and character, full of word play and delivered with a wink and a nod. The stories are brought to life by collaboration of the six-member band who build melodic textures with guitars, keys, saxophone, melodica, and bass. Whatever it takes to tell the tale.”

Billy King and the Bad Bad Bad

“Billy King and The Bad Bad Bad are a psyched out rock band from Austin, Texas. The Austin Monthly once called them “Surf Rock From Hell” and the band doesn’t disagree. They blend the spirit of hard rock rebellion with acid-laced beach parties with an anti-establishment attitude. Make no mistake, these mates are an American rock and roll band – with a Texas Twang, a monstrous sound, and third coast riffs.”
