Artifakts is the musical undertaking of Wisconsin-born Garret Meyer that blurs the line between electronic, hip-hop and soul.

Landing noteworthy shows across the country with a wide array of both live and DJ sets, this producer has shown his belonging among the ranks of both seasoned beat makers and bands alike.

Since 2012 Artifakts has worked with a plethora of renown musicians, labels and producers both musically and in design to provide a unique catalog of music and art very much rooted in the indie-electronic community. While toting a discography frequently favorited by study/relax playlists and the more introspective listener, an Artifakts performance is anything but stringent in style, often showcasing genres from current EDM to classic funk grooves and anything in between.

Cure for Paranoia, Chilldren of Indigo, Electrik Ants @ The Freeman June 7th

** This is a whopper of a show, get your tickets early for just $10, or it’s $13 at the door while they last. **

On a bill so big it should be called William, local tour-de-forces Cure for Paranoia, Chilldren of Indigo, and Electrik Ants will be putting on display why this isn’t your parents’ Dallas scene. Redefining metroplex music, all three bands are ferociously unique and dynamically independent while finding common ground in the worlds of aggressive hip-hop and fluid grooves. To say energy will be coursing through The Free Man Friday, June 7, would be an understatement of the drastic variety. Miss this show at your own peril.

——

Atop the blossoming DFW music scene sits Cure for Paranoia, whose eclectic blend of hip-hop, funk and soul have given them the opportunity to perform with the likes of Nas, George Clinton & Parliament Funkadelic, Flying Lotus and many more. Insightful, insatiable, and ever-expanding, they provide the Cure for whatever ails you.

Aggressive, intelligent, sensory, and ever-passionate, Chilldren of Indigo inject the Dallas music scene with a liveliness any city would be envious to claim. An avant-garde combination of funk, soul, and headbanging hip-hop, Chilldren has carved out a space somewhere between Black Sabbath and Kendrick Lamar. COI provides a transcendent experience not to be missed.

Peer into music’s future with the ever-evolving Electrik Ants. An intoxicating mix of funk, hip-hop, rock, and psychedelia (somewhere between Rage Against the Machine and Gorillaz), the Ants have made their home across the spectrum of musical genres. See them locally before they take over globally.

Backwoods at Mulberry Mountain returns for 2019 with new summer time dates! Warmer weather means more summer fun like cooling off in the streams and rivers high in the the Ozark National Forest.

New stage designs, more jam and bluegrass, and the bass heavy electronic you’ve come to wobble to will help make this the best festival yet. We’ve increase the amount of art in the Nirvana Woodlands this year and brought back some of the original stage designers and builders from 2015 and 2016.

More upgraded camping with electric and water will be available this year and vendor row will be adjusted to line the main concrete path in one long “Shakedown Street.”

New experiences await you on the Mountain this coming summer…

Wednesday Night Live! with The High Moons May 29th

Live music every Wednesday night in the Foundation Room lounge! This week we are featuring The High Moons.

-About the band-
“The High Moons have come a long way in a few short years. They’ve gone from a two woman show featuring the Henderson sisters to a four piece band. Their genre is hard to pin down, as it seems limitless, but the best description has been “indie gypsy blues”. Their set can go from sultry sirens of the south with haunting cello melodies, to fast paced 50’s style pop with a twist of vulgarity. The harmonies, interesting melodies, superb instrument combinations and healing lyrics are just a few of the reasons why people are falling under the spell of The High Moons.”

✷ ABOUT BACKWOODS AT MULBERRY MOUNTAIN ✷

Good music. Good people. Good times.

This is the driving philosophy behind the Backwoods at Mulberry Mountain. This three day weekend event has earned the reputation of showcasing some of the best independent bands in Middle America, alongside nationally recognized artists and musicians, to create a one-of-a-kind weekend in Ozark, AR. The beautiful landscape that surrounds the area at Mulberry Mountain encompasses amazing production while attendees camp on site.

✷ ABOUT GROOVEMENT ✷

Groovement, a lively, six man funk-rock group from Fayetteville, AR, has been described as what you’d hear if Led Zeppelin caught a Soul Train with Grouplove and they threw a party while headin’ down the tracks to Motown. Their catchy original melodies, big harmonies, funky grooves and impressive solos make up a setlist you can’t not dance along with. That would be enough to please any music fan, but throw in Groovement’s titillating twists on some unexpected favorite cover tunes, and you’ve got a mega-memorable night of live music on your hands.

✷ ABOUT TRYMORE MOJO ✷

Seeking the highest of interstellar peaks, TryMoreMOJO guides the listener on their mission through space with their blend of funky riffs, modular soundscapes, energetic vocals, and heavy grooves; inviting fans to contribute their energy in a give-and-take partnership between performer and listener.

✷ ABOUT FLUFF ✷

Originating in Shreveport, Louisiana, FLUFF has quickly gained recognition in their home city and around the south. Max, Keagan, and Adam have been playing music together since 2006, with a background in funk, blues, and jam/improv music. It wasn’t until Dustyn joined the band in 2015 and added a smooth piano and twisty, turny synth work that the band started reaching heights they never had.

✷ ABOUT LUCID VISION ✷

Spreading light through sound, Lucid Vision takes listeners to a melodic realm of electronic genre bends. Combining the unique world of designed sound with live guitar/ukulele, Lucid Vision demonstrates a natural balance of live-electronic music. Infinite potential unfolds as you delve into the high-energy, soulful experience, which then leaves listeners in an inspirational state.

★ ABOUT DAVID MICHAEL GEORGE ★

David Michael George aka DMG is a Rock/Soul/Funk artist from Dallas,Texas. With roots firmly planted in high energy Rock/Soul/Funk & Blues (“Find My Way Home”, “Step Aside”), to raw & expressive ballads with layered depth (“Villain”, “Just Ain’t The Same”), 1,000 YARD STARE keeps you in the moment and never lets you go. Funky, soulful, and bluesy, first note to last, it is an album full of heartfelt blues-rock, sharp as a needle, delivering George’s message of perseverance straight to the heart of his listeners.

★ ABOUT SKINNY COOKS ★

“From Dallas, TX, Skinny Cooks play music they describe as ‘Funk, Flip Flop, R&BLT, Psychedelic Souffle’. We don’t know about that, but it sounds great…”

Groovilicious. We’re not doctors, but we can definitely fix whatever it is that’s wrong with you. We fully understand the benefits of a healthy, balanced, wholesome groove, an uncompromised groove, a GROOVY groove…

★ ABOUT BIG ASS BRASS BAND ★

Bringing a brassy combination of Funk, Rock, and traditional New Orleans music to the Dallas Metroplex. In summer of 2015, a group of local Dallas musicians were kidnapped and forced together by the mysterious Yellow King to help bring the Carcosa sound to the Dallas area. Seeing the lack of musical diversity in brass music, they decided to play a combination of music of Traditional New Orleans Jazz, Afrobeat, Rock, and Funk to dominate and control the ears. If you’re prepared, the apocalyptic aristocrats of brass are ready to leave you dancing and moving and coming back for more!!!

Wednesday Night Live! ft. Mahagonie

Live music every Wednesday in the Foundation Room lounge! This week we are featuring Mahagonie

Bandolero (A Texas Grateful Dead Experience) at Gas Monkey Bar N’ Grill

-Bandolero-

is a Texafied celebration of the Grateful Dead and kindred spirits.

Paul Corliss (lead vocals) and Tom Relihan (guitar) began shaping what would eventually become Bandolero the way many bands get their start — sweating out songs in the garage. Today Bandolero includes Corliss, Tom Relihan, Michael Relihan (bass), Rick Sukkar (guitar) and Brad Fletcher (drums).

Bandolero has grown from humble beginnings in North Dallas to become one of Dallas-Fort Worth’s favorite Grateful Dead-influenced rock bands — one with a distinctive Texas twist. Known for high-energy live performances that offer a unique interpretation of the Dead’s catalogue, Bandolero plays across DFW to growing audiences that embrace a new presentation of a familiar voice.

-Electrik Ants-

is a septet blending rock, hip hop, funk, and psychedelic. As if Gorillaz, Red Hot Chili Peppers, Lettuce, and Pink Floyd all hopped in a rocket ship. Sax, DJ, drums, bass, and three members that rotate between rapping, singing, guitar, keys, synth, and percussion – an adventure of vibe and sound.

Cas Haley (Paris, TX)
[ rock | reggae | blues ]
http://www.cashaley.com

In 2018, with four albums under his belt and thousands of shows behind him, Texas singer-songwriter-guitarist Cas Haley was dividing his time between touring and spending time with his wife and kids on his Texas farm. He’d grown up immersed in ska/punk/skateboard culture and the classic reggae-pop of bands like UB40 and Sublime.

He’d long since absorbed the hard-knock lessons of his runner-up finish on an early season of America’s Got Talent. He’d worked with indie reggae label Easy Star Records, made other fruitful collaborations, and shared stages with the likes of UB40, Nahko and Medicine for the People, and Trevor Hall. All along, he’d gone his own independent way, building an enviable career on the road and in the studio.

Then came the jolt. His wife, Cassy, had a dangerous form of breast cancer. Surgery and chemo were in the cards. Suddenly life seemed a much darker place.

But writing together with Cassy, who was discovering a new strain of creativity as a songwriter, proved to be a big part of the family’s journey back to health. The lyrics to “Open Eyes,” which became the new album’s lead single, popped into Cas’s head while they
were driving to a follow-up appointment after Cassy’s surgery: “Confusion laid its claim on me/Open eyes but still can’t see.” The aptly named new album Lessons and Blessings comes out June 21, 2019 on Jimmy Buffett’s label Mailboat Records.

Lessons and Blessings features collaborations with Mihali Savoulidis (Twiddle), bluesman Seth Walker, and Josh Heinrichs. Cas and his band are slated to perform at major festivals
this summer and fall, including the Electric Forest Festival in Michigan, the Shakori Hills GrassRoots Festival, Shangri-La, Galactic Get Down, Project Earth, VIBE HIGH, and the MO
ROOTS Music and Arts Festival.

“It’s not your father’s acoustic-guitar music—although Stickley’s pop showed him his first chords when he was 12 years old. Instead, Stickley’s Martin churns out a mixture of bluegrass, Chuck Berry, metal, prog, grunge, and assorted other genres—all thoroughly integrated into a personal style,” writes Guitar Player Magazine.

Premier Guitar says, “Stickley’s trio… is not a traditional bluegrass group by any means… they are just nimble and ambitious enough to navigate EDM-style breakbeats as effortlessly as the old timey standard ‘Blackberry Blossom.’”

“Stickley is a super-resourceful acoustic guitarist who uses the instrument in many surprising ways and whose timing is just flawless. Fiddler Lyndsay Pruett puts deep thought into her flowing solos, plus she adds little flourishes and sudden stops that elevate the music,” proclaims Nashville’s Music City Roots’ Craig Havighurst.

Jon Stickley Trio announces a change in lineup beginning in January 2018 with new drummer, Hunter Deacon, who is both classically trained and boasts heavy jazz influences. Hailing from the ever-hip Knoxville, Tennessee, Hunter studied with drummer Keith Brown and received a BM in Studio Music and Jazz from the University of Tennessee. Deacon then went on to complete a six month residency at a jazz club in Hangzhou, China where he performed seven nights a week. Since his return, he’s played with Scott Miller and the Commonwealth, toured the country with Sam Lewis, and performs with guitarist Mike Baggetta.

Stickley says about the seemingly sudden lineup change “we’re really excited to add Hunter’s vibe to the mix, his creativity and willingness to experiment were two things that drew us to him, and Lyndsay and I were quickly surprised and inspired by what he’ll bring to the table.”

With inspiration ranging from from Green Day to Duran Duran to Tony Rice to Nirvana, Grateful Dead, David Grisman and beyond, the Trio is making waves with their unique sound. Along with releasing two full length albums and one EP in the past few years, the Trio has zig-zagged the nation, playing over 120 dates in 2017 alone. They are road tested and band geek approved!
