Ina May Wool -Crack It Open
Rootsy songs with unforgettable melodies, powerful vocals, electric guitars, Hammond organ, and an eclectic assortment of acoustic instruments.
"I stood in a tent near the hospital in Exeter, NH, on a rainy day in June 2002. Thirty people were singing my songs along with me. 'J'ai Gagne (I Won)' and 'January Thaw' were favorites of the cancer survivors' support group there; a social worker had found my music on the Internet. It was such a visceral feeling of triumph over suffering and a joy at being alive and together - that day gave me fuel for months, " recalls Ina May Wool.

Finally The Rain Has Come
Uses americana textures, guitars, violin, worldmusic sounds such as tabla, tanburas and loops with elements of rock.
The songs for this CD were mostly written in 2001. I added some of the Indian sounds that I've come to love very much during my studies in Bombay over the last 2 years. My trio with Keith Carlock and Paul Socolow provides the background for our guests.

Corrinne May
Safe in a Crazy World
"sophisticated and optimistic pop designed for dreary day inspiration" Music Connection Magazine
Her self-titled debut presented a calling card to audiences in the U.S., Taiwan, Hong Kong, Japan and Singapore. Now, the suite of songs that comprises Safe in a Crazy World extends Corrinne's worldwide appeal as it speaks of her connection to those around her. She explains, "With the first record, I was pouring out the emotions I felt at being in a new city, having to leave my family and friends in search of my calling. I was looking for answers and the album was born out of that introspection. The new album is happier. There's more of a feeling of being settled and wanting to reach out and be involved with the world."

Zach Broocke
Be Somebody
Modern Rock/Pop with 70's influence. Great songs...updates of classic Orbison, J. Cocker, B.Springsteen, Elton John,Billy Joel, styles with lush arrrangements.
CD Baby Review:
With detectable tinges of Jason White, Mark Cohn and David Gray, Zach Broocke storms ahead with a vibrant, resonant buzz, taking the rural, rugged, good and gritty, sand paper texture of Americana and combining it with the urban, lush, sonic and chewy swirls of pop. Sealing the deal with his classic Americana vocals, both coarse and
friendly, this album rocks from start to finish with track after track of professionally-polished, meticulously-crafted songs for the urban cowboy, city slicker and inner cowgirl/boy in everyone.

Bill Deasy
Good Day No Rain
He calls to mind Paul Westerberg and many of the finest rock songwriters who mix poetry and drunken bluster, yet somehow sound macho and sensitive at the same time. A cross between Matthew Sweet and Michael Penn-style smart pop and flat-out rock...
Deasy's songs are the real deal-intelligent, honest and catchy as hell.
- Performing Songwriter Magazine
Non-stop, pure to the bone Americana rock; hearty and gritty, but tender and soulful, too. Contains "Blue Sky Grey," "In My Head," "Prisoner" and "I Want To Know" as heard on radio stations nationwide including WYEP, KMTT, WCLZ, KBAC, WAPS, WTMD, WXRV,WDVE, KXCI, WKZE, WVIA and others. And yes, this is the same guy you might have seen on television singing "Good Things Are Happening."

Jim Bianco
Well Within Reason
Presented with the urgency of a firecracker, hear the heartwarming collision of melody, emotion, imagination and wit.
A heartwarming collision of expression, melody and wit, only Jim Bianco can do what Jim Bianco does. It's been said that if Randy Newman and Paul McCartney were to meet at a diner owned by Tom Waits, they would unanimously agree to play Bianco's music on the tableside midget-jukebox.
