Born in Santa Barbara, Paul Sigismondi plays "what I hear and what I see and give them form, to be a conduit for the information, the truth outside and inside and back out again."

Josh Thompson and his band have performed with such luminaries as superstar Teddy Geiger, Backstreet Boys' Brian Littrell, Click Five, and Dirty Blonde among others. Not bad for an eighteen-year old who just finished his last year of highschool. Mister Bill West is a heart throb in the eyes of little old ladies everywhere.

What sets Mark cool's music apart is the earthy, gritty, integrity in his voice, and the honesty and insight of his lyrics, laced at times with wry humor. These qualities have earned him frequent comparisons to Townes Van Zandt and Nebraska-era Bruce Springsteen.

One-man-band Pinche Gringo (also known as "big chief, a hug em' and a kiss em'") will single-handedly rock you. New Town Drunks play elemental music that resonates from far-off corners and cubby-holes, music that was lost in the late night smoke but has now been found.

As we've said before: Triple bill = triple threat = triple treat! Soft Company began as a solo quest for self-expression through anonymity under the alias "Missy Thangs" and grew into a six-piece band. Americans in France have myspace fans who write poetry like:

All of my energy I will save, cause
Saturday night we won't behave.
Just for the beautiful, bright, and brave,
Americans in France will play the Cave!

Seth Kauffman has a sort of "early Wailers meets Motown meets Beck in the Delta" sound.
