Rooftops
http://www.myspace.com/rftps
Rooftops has found a strong direction, playing dual guitars over a strong backbone of drums, influenced equally by melodic pop tunes and the highly technical bands coming out of the Chicago math rock scene. “We all like instrumental music, music that is weird and notey,” Detrick said, noting that for his own part, he was equally influenced by “growing up on pop music from the ‘80’s.” - Ian Chant, What’s Up Magazine.

The Keaton Collective

“the KC doesn’t just have one sound, in a word the music can be described as “diverse” since it ranges from rock ‘n’ roll to folk/country to dance music.” - Anna Rankin, Whats Up Magazine

Finn Riggins

“It’s rare for a band to tour for 245 days in the span of a year. It’s even less common for said band to a) hail from Hailey, Idaho (population 7,844) and b) decide to relocate to a small, shared cabin in the Pioneer Mountain Range for those 120 days per year that they are home. Fortunately for us, Idaho three-piece Finn Riggins embraces and exemplifies the glory inherent in approaching one’s creative life from an anomalous perspective. ” - Finn Riggins Myspace page

Council of Lions

What’s endearing about this band is that they formed (and function) under the mantra that it’s “just for fun.” They aim to make light of their unpolished demeanor and just throw all that self-doubt to the wayside. “We are a garage band,” Sarah said. “For a long time, I just thought, ‘oh no, I’m not a musician. I can’t do that.’ Little did I know, I really needed that push,” bassist Jenn explained, “Because now I can’t think of anything I’d rather do than play music.” - Haylee Nighbert, What’s Up Magazine

No booze, no drugs, no jerks.
