The Coffis Brothers
With two songwriters, six albums, and more than a thousand shows under their belt, The Coffis Brothers have earned their reputation as modern-day torchbearers of all-American rock & roll. It's a sound caught halfway between amplified Americana, acoustic folk, roadhouse R&B, and electrifying roots music, crafted by a pair of California-born siblings who've been sharing the stage since childhood, and the five piece band filled out by Kyle Poppen (guitar), Aidan Collins (bass), and Cory Graves (drums). The musicians recorded the bulk of each song in the same room, playing together in real time, reacting to one another's contributions as each take unfolded. "So many of the records we love were made that way," Jamie points out. "We wanted to capture the sound of a band hanging out in the studio, having fun, being in the moment." Being in the moment didn't stop Jamie and Kellen from taking a look backward with songs like "Family" and "Home," both of which find the brothers ruminating on friendship, family, and the long journey that's brought them to the present. Nostalgia isn't something the brothers usually indulge in — they'd rather focus upon the road ahead — but it's refreshing to hear The Coffis Brothers nod to their shared roots. At the same time, Kaw-fis Bruth-urs defiantly moves the group forward, doubling down on The Coffis Brothers' harmony-drenched rock & roll sound while showcasing just how eclectic that music can be. As for the album's phonetically spelled title… well, that's another thing that might not have appeared on previous records. "It's a tongue-in-cheek way of saying, 'This is us, and we're coming to a new realization of who we are as musicians,'" Jamie says. "If we'd come up with that idea a few years ago, we might've dismissed it as being too much of a joke. Maybe we took ourselves too seriously at the beginning, but now we're alright with bringing our guard down a little bit. We can laugh at ourselves. We're having fun, even if this is still serious business."

B and the Hive
With every beat, B & the Hive's ethereal blend of Alternative Rock & Indie Pop, pulses with heart and soul. Both modern and timeless, this California raised band conjures beloved artists of the past, while continually forging a path uniquely their own. From guitar driven anthems, to moody pop mantras and hook-laden melodies, there is a conscious undercurrent of stirring lyrics which deeply move the listener and leave them wanting more. For nearly a decade, B & the Hive’s founding members and co-songwriters, Brianna Lee & Josh Barrett have existed purely to make music from the soul. Drawing from early inspiration (The Cure, Radiohead, Fleetwood Mac), their sound relates to the current realm of artists (Sharon Van Etten, Big Thief, Warpaint) and remains ever-evolving. The combined talents and direction of Josh (producer/bass/multi-instrumentalist) and stunning vocals and stage presence of Brianna, armed with a powerful cast of musicians, culminates in a dynamic and exhilarating live show, that captivates audiences wherever they perform. Heart Beat, their latest release, takes us through new heights and mesmerizing depths, spanning genres and casting away the desire to paint this band into any category other than simply great music. The EP launches into a feel-good rock vibe, with the first of 4 songs, “Who You Are”; each spectacular piece of ear candy evolving into something ala U2 or War on Drugs. The first single and title track, “Heart Beat” - a consistent fan favorite during live performances - is an exciting gateway into a new plane of B & the Hive’s otherworldly, rock sound with an ending that gets your heart pounding. “Something Real” travels alternative terrain, evoking the band’s darker, eclectic tastes in experimental rock. The EP wraps with “Give Love”, an instant dance floor hit that has first time listeners singing along with every line of the song's warm and resonant message. Each song says something about this band, and this band has something to say.
