Gregory Alan Isakov
Gregory Alan Isakov has been described by Boulder Weekly,
"Strong, subtle...a lyrical genius" and has been compared to
his influences, Bruce Springsteen, Kelly Joe Phelps, Iron &
Wine and Nick Drake. Born in Johannesburg, South Africa,
and raised in Philadelphia, Isakov moved to Colorado at the
end of the last decade. He recently was named 2008's Best
Acoustic/Folk Artist by the Denver Westword (Audience
Award) and was named by the Denver Westword as the Best Singer/Songwriter 2007
(Critics Award). Isakov is also the 2007 winner of the Telluride Troubador Songwriting
Competition. Gregory Alan Isakov has shared the stage with numerous artists such as
Ani Difranco, Rodrigo y Gabriela, Brandi Carlile, Richie Havens, and Fiona Apple. He has
appeared at music festivals such as South by Southwest, Falcon Ridge Folk Fest, Rocky
Mountain Folks Fest, Telluride Bluegrass Festival and Monolith at Red Rocks. On the heels
of his latest full length release, "That Sea, The Gambler", Gregory Alan Isakov tours as a
solo artist as well as with his band, The Freight. Recordings available at cdbaby.com and
iTunes. Visit Gregory's myspace page.
Bela Karoli
This unorthodox trio combines an upright bass, mechanical
electronic percussion, two women singing, violin and
accordion to produce music undefined by genre.
Bela Karoli swelled from a solo project to a trio when
Julie Davis (bass, soft instruments, vocals) began playing
with Brigid McAuliffe (accordion, vocals) and Carrie Beeder (violin and cello) in the summer
of 2006. Bela Karoli’s music has been described as nakedly beautiful, gorgeously
affected, stunning and emotionally resonant, but most listeners agree that it’s hard to
classify the band’s compelling mix of modern electronica with old-world acoustic music.
