Rumpke Mountain Boys
2017-04-06 21:30 (America/New_York)
Rumpke Mountain Boys combine signature vocals, a unique command of string instruments (acoustic guitar, mandolin, upright bass and banjo) and dynamic special effects into a singular musical experience. An emotion filled musical stream of consciousness with no setlist, minimal structure, and intuitive improvisational flow. In this way, they summon the energy of the crowd as their guide in linking just the right music to precise moments in time.
Grateful Dead Hour host David Gans proclaimed, “One of the things I love about the Rumpke Mountain Boys is that there’s a fundamental honesty in their presentation. This is something they share with my other heroes, Donna the Buffalo and the Grateful Dead. They don’t make set lists ahead of time, they don’t rehearse their songs to a fare-thee-well– they perform in real time. All four of them write, which is very important, and they draw songs from a tremendous variety of sources… being a musician is a life-long learning experience, if you’re doing it right, and they are.”
Like playing around a campfire, the Boys take turns calling the next tune, distilling shows from a sea of infinite notes created from years of jamming. Drawing upon a growing catalog of originals and and an ecclectic mix of covers, the Rumpke Mountain Boys blend music like a fine Irish whiskey– the result affectionately dubbed Trashgrass. The Boys titled their 2012 album release with the same name, followed by their 2013 release, Moon, which was recorded at the famed Royal Studios in Memphis. 2016’s High Time, Low Tide marks the release of their 4th self-produced album.
2016 was outstanding for the string quartet. The Boys broke new ground throughout the the country including Colorado, California, Oregon, and the Southeast. Finishing up the year with two stellar highlights, their own Snuggleween and the Rumpke Mountain Boys New Years Eve Ball in their hometown of Cincinnati.
2017 promises to be even better, with extensive touring from coast to coast and the best festival lineup yet. Keep your ear to the ground because the Rumpke Mountain Boys are rolling into a town near you!

EARLY SHOW: Thor's Hammer
2017-04-07 18:30 - 20:30
When they’re not playing with Yacht Rock Schooner, you can find Doug and Ganesh playing progressive rock with Agent Cooper, or taking requests and starting sing alongs with Thor’s Hammer.
Thor’s Hammer started as a project for fun, a chance for two friends to blow off some steam playing some classic songs they’d always loved. Audiences soon found out that their talent and experience meant they’d hear some great singers sing some great songs, and were likely to see something they didn’t expect.
Doug Busbee and Ganesh Giri Jaya are both lifelong performers, with decades of shows behind them, and Thor’s Hammer draws on their wide-ranging pop repertoire to deliver forgotten gems, timeless classics, and of course some smooth yachty standards.

Atlanta Funk Society
2017-04-07 22:00
Atlanta Funk Society is a Funk band from Atlanta, GA, playing classic hits from the ’60s, ’70s and ’80s, including everything from “Superbad” by James Brown, to “Whatcha Gonna Do For Me” by Chaka Kahn.
Started in the summer of 2010, the Atlanta Funk Society brought together a collection of some of the best musicians Atlanta had to offer. Founding members guitarist and vocalist Rob Lane (the Apostles) and bass player Kevin Scott (Col. Bruce Hampton, and others too numerous to mention) wanted to fill the need for a hard hitting funk band playing classic hits from the 60’s, 70’s and 80’s.
Their first call was to Jonathan Lloyd(Cadillac Jones, Lloyds Rocksteady Review), local trombone player and vocalist to put together the horn section which has included Deniz Felder, Jason Collier, Jon Marett (Willie Nelson, Waylon Jennings, OutKast, Goodie Mob), Prof. Eric Fontaine (just about every great band in Atlanta), and Taylor Kennedy (Soulphonics, Blair Crimmins). Next to join were guitarist Nick Johnson(Last Waltz Ensemble, Pharoh Gummitt) and drummer Duane Trucks(Derek Trucks, Pharoh Gummit) lending their unrivaled musicianship to the group. The keyboards were manned by Florida transplant and first call pianist Nick Rosen. Scotty Bryan (Cinetrope, 3052 dub Collective) stepped up the bands’ vibe with the addition of percussion.
The next critical piece was a female vocalist, and after a long search, Michelle Marshall came into the fold and showed what was up. The last piece was additional percussionist Yaya Brown to provide the perfect complement to Scotty Bryan and complete the driving rhythms of AFS.

Bottomless Mimosa Brunch w/ The Tray Dahl Jazz Quintet
2017-04-09 12:30 - 15:00
Purists Beware! Tray Dahl & The Jugtime Ragband is not jug band, ragtime, or dixieland. It is an energetic amalgamation of all three immersed in an early New Orleans sound with a style that also incorporates a little blues, a bit of swing, and some old time gospel tones. We get people’s feet stomping in a roaring twenties kind of way. Our sound has been described by many as “speakeasy” or “prohibition era” music. Our songs match the early New Orleans jazz/blues instrumentation combo of tenor banjo and trumpet with upbeat dixieland and swing tempos underlying a heavy dose of powerful 1920’s inspired vocals stylistically akin to Bessie Smith, Clara Smith, and Louis Armstrong. Our main influences include Louis Armstrong and the Boswell Sisters. We play songs composed by some of the best songwriters from the early and mid-twentieth century alongside our original tunes which are heavily influenced by their work. Our songwriting style consists of writing stories that take listeners back in time through the experiences of our main characters whose tales, so far, have taken place anywhere from the 1860’s to 1930’s.

EARLY SHOW: Michael Magno
2017-04-14 18:30 - 20:30
Magno – derived from the Latin adjective magna, meaning “of greatness”… Somewhere in the definition, Michael Magno inherited the drive to become a serious singer/songwriter. Spoon-fed his influences by radio-loving parents, Michael wrote his first song at age 14 and never looked back. By today’s standards, you can compare him to such contemporaries as Bruno Mars and OneRepublic, with a smooth vocal reminiscent of Sting or Marvin Gaye. In 1998, the Florida native transplanted to Atlanta and began performing his originals solo acoustic or with the his band, MAGNO. He quickly gained popularity at such venues as Eddie’s Attic, Smith’s Olde Bar and other music rooms around Atlanta. His sound is an organic blend of rock and soul, with an undeniable pop sensibility. Drawing inspiration from coffee and 80’s radio, Magno’s songs are a personal invite into familiarity. His songs convey broad takes on love and hope, while letting his listeners embrace the lyrics in their own singularity. Live performances showcase Magno’s natural abilities: lucid vocals, comfort on guitar and piano, an alluring demeanor and boy-next-door smile. With every show, Magno continues to draw a growing fan base, validating his stride as a serious songwriter and performer. Find him on Facebook, Twitter and Instagram @mrmagnomusic

Yacht Rock Revue performs Talking Heads' Stop Making Sense Album
2017-04-14 22:00
Join us at the V as the gents of smooth take on Talking Heads’ bona fide classic album, Stop Making Sense!
You’re welcome! The Yacht Rock Revue™ is the Greatest Show on Surf and the finest tribute to ‘70s light rock to ever perform anywhere. Ever. Their spot-on renditions of Hall & Oates, Michael McDonald, Steely Dan, and the rest of the Time-Life Infomercial Catalog have enthralled fans across the United States. It goes without saying they have taken their act to the high seas, performing showcase sets on music cruises with Weezer, Kid Rock, Train, Zac Brown Band, Sister Hazel, and fitness guru Jillian Michaels.
By blurring the lines between a tribute, an original act, and a comedic troupe, the Yacht Rock Revue™ has forged a unique niche market and a special bond with their fans. The band attacks each song as if it were their own, and the energy exchanged between the band and the crowd has more in common with a stadium U2 show than that of a typical bar band.
The band has won accolades ranging from “Best Place to Get Drunk With Your Dad” to “Best Overall Music Act in Atlanta” to “Best Place to Start an Extramarital Affair,” and has been name-dropped by the New York Times, Pitchfork, the Guardian UK, Spin, TimeOut New York, Billboard, MTV.com, and (probably) your mom at her last cocktail party.
Speaking of name-dropping, members of the band have played on-stage with members of Weezer, Billy Joel, Walter Egan, .38 Special, John Mayer, Zac Brown Band, Little River Band, Sheryl Crow, Noel Gallagher, Starbuck, Sarah McLachlan, Don Henley, Lynyrd Skynyrd, Neil Finn, Jellyfish, Devo, Nine Inch Nails, Joan Jett, Wet Willie, Bon Jovi, Skid Row, and the Saturday Night Live Band. (None of those were a joke.)

Chicken Pickin' Brunch with Sailing to Denver
2017-04-15 13:00 - 15:00
What started as a group of friends getting together to learn each other’s favorite songs in 2011, has developed into one of Atlanta’s most original and universally adored acts: Sailing to Denver. Strong vocal harmonies, backed by beautiful and interesting string arrangements, make it difficult to ignore this band’s performance and buzz around town. Each member of the group, having been veterans of many other bands throughout the 2000’s, has developed to become a better player individually, and especially as a unit, since forming. When first seeing them live, it is quickly apparent that they are having as much or more fun than the audience. After releasing their self-titled debut record in Dec, they have been experiencing a wave of momentum that was not only unexpected, but has made the winter of 2013 one of confident creation and cultivation of an act the artists themselves didn’t even see coming. And that is exactly what they are. A band you don’t even see coming. But find yourself at one of Atlanta’s most happenin’ bars or hottest festivals when they are hosting Sailing to Denver and you will be swept away with the tide and everything else.

Songs For Kids Foundation exists to give kids battling serious illness opportunities to be creative and express themselves through music. We’ve brought music into hospitals all over the US and run regular programs in children’s hospitals in 5 states. Songs for Kids musicians perform in-hospital mini concerts for whole floors of patients and make individual bedside visits for kids who don’t have the chance to leave their rooms. We’re not there to just play a couple of songs, provide a distraction, and leave; our goal is to form the kinds of meaningful relationships that it takes to help kids deal with their illnesses through creativity.
In addition to hospital performances, we provide opportunities for
songwriting and recording to give kids a chance to put their
experiences into words and feel a sense of accomplishment. This year, we’ll be taking that work one step further by launching a one-on-one music mentorship program that will be available to kids both in and out of the hospital. Kids who join the program will work with their own Songs For Kids musician on a dedicated music project. Whether that means songwriting, singing lessons, or learning an instrument, we can’t wait to see and showcase the awesome work they do together.
Songs For Kids: we’re honored to rock with the kids who need us most.

Chicken Pickin' Brunch w/ Dusty Roads
2017-04-22 13:00 - 15:00
Dusty Roads is a high-energy Georgia-grown Americana band, formed by Atlanta based musician, J.L. Mickelson. When you’re at a Dusty Roads show, expect to hear influences of the legends of country and bluegrass music, such as Merle Haggard, Flatt & Scruggs, Willie Nelson, Buck Owens, and Bill Monroe. You can also expect sprinklings of songs and sounds of the great writers and musicians from across the globe and halls of time, like Django Earnhardt, Duke Ellington, and Irving Berlin. “Come take a trip, down that long, dusty road”.
Comprised of some of the Southeast regions finest pickers and singers, the band is ever evolving and growing. They’re constantly searching for that sound, that lick, that twangy hook that sinks deep into the listener’s soul and pulls them into the unfolding story of each song. Dusty Roads cherishes the purity of silvery steel strings ringing together harmoniously. The band champions comradery, respect for the craft of their instruments, and finely constructed songs that feel as if they soar down from the mountaintop to resonate the listener’s heart-strings.
“We came here with one purpose, to have a blast playing and performing live acoustic music”- J.L. Mickelson, singer/songwriter for Dusty Roads. Growing up in Atlanta, Mickelson was surrounded by a diverse world of cultures and music his whole life. “My great-grandfather was a mandolin player from Germany, so I guess it just runs in the blood”, says Mickelson of his musical lineage. Like a rear-view mirror in a pick-up truck, Dusty Roads looks back through the history of written and recorded music, studying fervently to decipher just what made each of these classic songs so special and unique. Just like ‘looking backwards to go forwards’, Mickelson applies this approach to writing original material for the band.
During the Winter of 2015, Dusty Roads went into the studio to begin recording its debut self-titled album. Due out in the Spring 2016, the album will feature all original music inspired by life, love, heartache. “Life is heavy, but music can make your bags a little lighter” – J.L. Mickelson
