SUMMARY:The WDVX Blue Plate Special – 7/21 – Noah Gabriel / Dyer Davis
DESCRIPTION:Noah Gray is an American singer\, songwriter\, instrumentalist and producer. His music is characterized by confessional\, personal songwriting conveyed through a chameleonic\, genre-bending production style. From the 80’s synth pop of cut you off\, to the ethereal folk found in flowers\, to hip-hop and R&B influenced cuts like leavemealone and pressure\, Noah utilizes music as a medium to convey a bigger story. \nHis debut album\, fluorescent\, was released on July 28th\, 2023. Following a linear\, fictional story\, the self-written and produced album is a concept album based around the aesthetic of New York nightlife. Sonically\, the album is a love letter to mid-2010’s alternative pop\, similar to the stylings of Lorde\, Halsey\, the 1975\, PVRIS\, Hayley Kiyoko\, Troye Sivan\, Lana Del Rey\, and more. \n \nDyer Davis is an American singer-songwriter and guitarist known for his electrifying performances and a sound deeply rooted in southern blues rock. Davis’ powerful debut album; “Dog Bites Back”\, debuted at #6 in the Billboard Blues Charts and was praised by Downbeat Magazine who stated “Dyer Davis brings new immediacy to blues and blues-rock by singing as if he were probing a deep recess within him. His album jumps him to the front row of the most promising young up-and-comers.”

SUMMARY:The WDVX Blue Plate Special – 7/23 – Heavy Diamond Ring
DESCRIPTION:Some things are just meant to last. When Sarah Anderson and Paul DeHaven met and began playing together in 2004\, they had no idea just how deep the well of their musical partnership would prove to be. After the disbanding of indie-folk sweethearts Paper Bird\, the duo founded Heavy Diamond Ring and never looked back. HDR is the culmination (thus far) of their signature sound\, a fountain of open-hearted\, folk-rock\, steeped in vocal harmony and group synergy. Led by Anderson’s smooth-as-honey vocals and DeHaven’s rugged guitar chops\, the band has been described as “open-road\, long drive music”\, having “a little bit of twang\, and a whole lot of beef”\, and their live show as “infectious and contagious”. The band is rounded out by veteran knockouts Blake Stepan (bass)\, Mike Lang (keys)\, and Orion Tate Ignelzi (drums). Their second full-length LP\, “All Out of Angels”\, out this fall\, was produced by Ben Wysocki (the Fray) and Mark Anderson and features a duet with Nathaniel Rateliff. Out now on Cowboy Cowabunga Recordings. \n \n

SUMMARY:The WDVX Blue Plate Special – 7/24 – Oak Hill Drifters

SUMMARY:The WDVX Big Plate – 7/25 – Ettore Buzzini
DESCRIPTION:When you think about Bluegrass music\, you don’t think about grand emotional and spiritual journeys that pierce your soul; yet that is exactly what Ettore Buzzini is creating with his innovative\, classical-infused American bluegrass music. \nTo the casual listener\, Ettore’s sound is simply hard-driving Bluegrass. But anyone who listens a little more closely will quickly notice that Ettore’s unique music intersects the iconic acoustic sounds of Americana\, youthful energy and hard drive of pop-rock\, and emotional journeys of classical romantic music. Imagine if Earl Scruggs\, Led Zeppelin\, and Chopin got together on stage: it might sound something like Ettore’s music. \nMulti-award winning young Swiss-American songwriting and banjo prodigy Ettore has a decidedly GenAlpha take on traditional Bluegrass\, rooted in tradition\, but with a innovative\, colorful playing style that is irresistibly distinct\, and a songwriting style completely outside the mainstream. His unique\, fresh style that appeals to non-bluegrass youth is a product of his roots on both sides. He was imbued with the classical tradition while living with his family in Italian-speaking Switzerland\, as a toddler. At age 6\, his Tennessee grandfather introduced him to Flatt & Scruggs\, and he was hit by bluegrass like a lightning bolt. He begged his parents for a banjo for nearly 3 years until\, at age 9\, they relented. Ettore’s love for banjo expanded across the generational iterations of bluegrass. He devoured the traditional bluegrass classics\, while also becoming enthralled by the power of classical music\, inspired by his Swiss grandparents’ sacred choir. Ettore made a name for himself at youth competitions in the Blue Ridge Mountains with his prodigious banjo picking style as well as his mastery of flatpicking guitar. He then revealed a completely new level of artistry at just 11 years old\, when he won the Kruger Brothers’ Young Songwriter’s Contest\, with an original banjo and lyrical composition about the Norse mythology of Ragnarok. By age 14\, he had released his first album\, after being approached by legendary bluegrass record label Patuxent Records. He has performed with bluegrass legends Pete Wernick\, Danny Paisley\, Sideline and many others. He has performed at celebrated festivals such as Merlefest and FloydFest\, PBS’s Woodsongs\, and more. At age 16\, competing against industry professionals\, he won the prestigious Fresh Grass Competition with his original composition\, “The Birth of Eros”\, a banjo instrumental with a classical romantic theme of a lost soul’s hope of redemption and love. \nEttore’s star is soaring in the Folk-Americana-Bluegrass scene\, where his unique\, virtuosic Between his prodigious technical skill\, unique lyrical themes and an infectious love of the music\, he may just succeed in turning GenAlpha into GenBlue.

SUMMARY:The WDVX Blue Plate Special - 8/8 - Robinella
DESCRIPTION:Robinella’s career began with a sort of luck that rarely comes to most artists within their lifetime. What started out as a simple husband-and-wife duo fresh out of college quickly grew to a full-fledged band that blended Bluegrass\, Country and Jazz. The combination of Robinella’s honey-sweet vocals with violin\, mandolin\, bass\, drums and piano captivated audiences\, thus creating the ever popular Robinella & the CC Stringband. \nThey released their first album\, self-titled Robinella and The CC Stringband\, in 2000\, which quickly followed\, No Saint\, No Prize in 2001. Both were on the independent label Big Gulley Records. With a few simple twists of fate\, what followed was a whirlwind of rapid success – Columbia Records liked what they heard and signed Robinella in 2002. The label took seven songs from the band’s two prior albums and released them as the CD Blanket for My Soul and then released a full album in 2003\, Robinella and the CC Stringband. This led to a national tour including opening for such artists as Bob Dylan\, Willie Nelson\, Earl Scruggs\, Nickel Creek\, Robert Earl Keen\, Kasey Chambers\, Del McCoury and Rodney Crowell as well as an appearance on “Late Night with Conan O’Brien” and a music video on CMT for their hit single\, “Man Over”. She also performed on NPR’s “Mountain Stage\,” appeared on the Grand Ole Opry and performed on PBS’s “SoundStage.” In 2006\, Robinella was nominated for “Emerging Artist of the Year” at the Americana Music Awards and released her fourth album\, “Solace for the Lonely”\, on Dualtone Records in Nashville. \nBut then life\, as it has a tendency to do\, threw a few curveballs her way. She became a mom and a couple of years later\, she and her husband/musical partner split up with a new record almost completed. Exhausted and somewhat disillusioned with the industry and its promises\, it was time to regroup\, redefine and get back to her roots. So she returned to her home\, the foothills of the Great Smoky Mountains\, and got back in touch with what she truly wanted – love\, family\, friendship\, music\, art\, truth. \nWith that comes her latest release\, “Fly Away Bird”\, her most mature work. However\, within the melancholy and touches of sadness there is not true despair. For such a voice — that dazzling\, warm\, bright-as-summer-sunshine soprano — to even communicate it would most likely defy certain laws of emotional physics. No\, instead\, this album\, beneath the disappointments\, she is brimming with optimism — with hope. You can feel it\, and even more important than that\, you believe — because she believes\, and because her music is so honest and so genuine and so forthright that you just can’t help but knowing that this is an artist who still finds life to be magical.

SUMMARY:The WDVX Blue Plate Special – 8/11 – Jeff Batson
DESCRIPTION:Jeff Batson\, a native of the St. Louis suburb of Cahokia\, IL\, began his musical journey in high school. His early performances at iconic local venues like The Fabulous Fox Theater garnered him a strong following in the local music scene. He has shared the stage with the likes of rock ‘n’ rollers\, Gary U.S. Bonds and Three Doors Down\, country greats including Hank Williams\, Jr.\, Keith Urban\, Tracy Byrd\, and Collin Raye and bluegrass legend\, Dr. Ralph Stanley. The St. Louis Post Dispatch\, in one of their many concert reviews\, declared him “a natural frontman.” After conquering the local scene\, he set his sights on Nashville and\, in 1997\, made the move.​ \nAfter settling in Music City\, Jeff split his time between live performances and honing his songwriting talents\, amassing more than 40 cuts by other artists. “The Rock\,” the title cut on Tracy Lawrence’s Grammy-nominated gospel release\, cracked the Top 20 on the country charts. “Wasted” and “Last Time ‘til the Next Time” were co-written and recorded by Jamie Richards\, who took both songs into the Top 10 on the Texas Music Chart. His own recording of “That’s a Winner\,” which pays tribute to the late great St. Louis Cardinal’s announcer Jack Buck\, remains a St. Louis baseball fan favorite. \nA DOD tour\, performing for the military in Saudi Arabia\, Kuwait\, Bahrain\, the United Arab Emirates\, and Diego Garcia\, gave him a keen understanding of those who serve. Jeff co-wrote “Make a Wish” and “Hometown Heroes\,” both released as singles on Laura Bryna’s debut project for Equity Records Trying to Be Me. “Hometown Heroes” caught the attention of the U.S. Air National Guard\, who created a national promotion using the song in radio commercials and the music video in television commercials. His tribute to the selfless service of firefighters\, “Don’t Call Me a Hero\,” received instant acclaim from the global firefighting community and continues to be played at their events across the country. In 2024-2025 Jeff took two releases\, “End of the Grains” and “Come on Sunshine\,” to the top of the Euro Academy of Country Music Chart. \nIn his songwriting\, Jeff Batson possesses an authentic gift for turning real emotions into music. In his live shows\, he sings those songs with a passion that will excite any fan of good\, honest music.

SUMMARY:The WDVX Blue Plate Special – 8/13 – J. Carmichael
DESCRIPTION:J. Carmichael writes ballads about love\, God\, and a world spinning out of control. Defiance\, perhaps to a fault\, echoes in his music\, from the way he writes\, to the instruments he plays\, to what he writes about. J grew up on Nashville Now\, 90’s punk and indie and he is influenced by the songwriting giants of many genres. Just as comfortable at a fiddle festival as he is at a punk rock show\, never content in the confines of a genre. J has released 3 full length records and a handful of EPs with another album coming in 2025. J spent 2008-2013 recording albums and playing shows from Washington State to Texas playing as an opener for: Lucero\, Tumbledown (Mike of MxPx)\, Scott Biram\, and yet to break out alt country sensation John Moreland. After becoming a father J took several years away from performing and recording and served multiple communities in Idaho and Washington state driving ambulances and fighting a few fires. Some souls however\, are bound to roam and share stories and songs along the way. In 2024 J set out on the road again with a pile of new songs and looks forward to doing even more of it in 2025.

SUMMARY:The WDVX Blue Plate Special – 8/20 – Maygen & The Bird Watcher
DESCRIPTION:The past few years have been quite a stir for the Minnesota progressive folk-rock-country sextet Maygen & The Birdwatcher. In late 2021 they released their debut full-length album\, Moonshine\, (which Americana UK wrote is “stunning”)\, earning them Midwest Country Music Awards for Album of the Year and Americana Artist of the Year) and landed opportunities to join festival stages with bands like Old Crow Medicine Show\, Paul Cauthen\, Grace Potter\, and even support a childhood favorite\, Travis Tritt. \nThey continued the momentum in late 2022\, releasing Moonshine’s companion EP\, with the “lively and charming” (Adventures in Americana) Bootleggin’ At The Flower Shoppe. With Maygen & The Birdwatcher taking home wins for the 2023 Album of the Year and Americana Artist of the Year at the Midwest Country Music Organization’s annual awards for Bootleggin’ At The Flower Shoppe. \nThe Americana folk band adventurously blurs the sounds of country\, bluegrass\, folk\, and blues. Lead singers Maygen Lacey\, and Noah Neumann intentionally work to draw on their vastly different musical influences and vocal styles to bring a fresh and unexpected mix of songs to light. From beauty to grit\, sadness to silliness\, the common thread is that this crew loves music\, and playing it together\, and it shows. \nIn October 2023\, Maygen & The Birdwatcher hosted and curated the inaugural Amerigrass Fest at The Hook and Ladder Theater & Lounge in Minneapolis. Maygen Lacey cherishes the special community of musical artists in the Midwest\, and looks forward to celebrating what each genre\, and fusion of genres can bring about at the new event Amerigrass Fest — “We are big fans of collaboration and love to play with the bands we share the stage with. Music is our love language and we’re very excited to play Amerigrass with the talented array of artists.” \nThat same year\, Maygen & The Birdwatcher teamed up with the South Dakota Grasslands Coalition\, a non-profit organization to help save North America’s most threatened ecosystem: its native grasslands. Together\, they released an original song and music video\, titled “Where Good Things Grow\,” that they hope will raise public awareness regarding the importance of grassland ecosystems and generate support for programs and activities to encourage farmers\, ranchers and state officials to develop programs and policies that preserve and restore the health of North America’s grasslands. The original song and music video for “Where Good Things Grow\,” have earned them the 2023 Video of the Year award from the Midwest Country Music Organization as well as 2023 Entertainer of the Year. \nMaygen & The Birdwatcher’s music is Americana that isn’t afraid to embrace eclecticism\, but it’s also firmly rooted in folk and country. To achieve their rich\, full sound\, the band fills out the sonic details\, with multi-instrumentalist Nik Pellinen adding banjo\, lap steel and electric guitar. Along with bassist Chase Rabideau\, who rounds out the bottom\, mandolin player Jesse Moravec\, who also contributes vocals\, fiddle player Evin Haukos\, and drummer-percussionist Peter Anderson create a new take on bluegrass-folk-country. It’s a hyphenated hybrid that can come only from a seasoned—and tightly knit—band. \nIt leaves music fans wanting to hear more as Maygen & The Birdwatcher leap forward this year\, and take their original music to the next level. \nMaygen & The Birdwatcher have released two single tracks— “Full Moons (Leap Year Session)” and “Jericho” from their forthcoming Leap Year EP available August 2\, 2024. Leap Year was recorded by Minnesota native\, acclaimed artist and guitarist-extraordinaire\, Erik Koskinen.

SUMMARY:The WDVX Blue Plate Special – 8/21 – Marfa
DESCRIPTION:Born and raised to a Texas country soundtrack\, forged in Colorado from a shared love of rock icons past and present\, and ignited by the spirit of California’s Laurel Canyon sound\, Marfa has arrived with an undeniably authentic sound as familiar as your favorite pair of Wranglers while as fresh as the morning Rocky Mountain air. \nTheir debut single “66”\, produced by Grammy® Award winning producer Nick Waterhouse (Leon Bridges\, Jon Batiste) and recorded at LA’s EastWest Studios inside the same four walls that gave life to The Beach Boys’ Pet Sounds and The Mamas & the Papas’ California Dreamin’\, puts the pedal-to-the-metal straight out of the gate on this top down road trip through the highways\, byways\, and everywhere in between. \nWith the release of “Daisy”\, produced by Grammy® Award nominated Josh Block (Caamp\, Leon Bridges) and written in the storied Canyon itself\, the band channels influences from CSNY to the Eagles\, taking listeners on an harmony-driven acoustic journey to find a long lost friend. \nUpcoming releases produced by 3-time Grammy® Award nominated Jonathan Wilson (Dawes\, Father John Misty\, Billy Strings) coming soon.
